Let’s Get This Party Started!

I love a good party

We’ve got plenty of yummy food, (today, I’m serving plates of curry veggies over brown rice, dishes of  coconut milk ice cream and drinks all around)  Get grooving to the music of the Beatles (because it’s a Beatles Wednesday)

Happy to have you here. Come on in and mingle with the other party goers!

We are partying in celebration of my approaching birthday. Here is the link to the original post, so you can check that out, while sipping on something wet and wild!

Birthday Wishes

All parties need favors for the guests, so, this week’s favor is the .99 Kindle Countdown Special on my book

Perspective, it’s all about replacing one thought with another  which is the first book I self-published.

I think of it as the love child of my imagination and my innocence!

In this book, I created a home for poetry that longed to be shared, prose that was asking for a chance to be read and photos that knew they had a future!  Laid out in more of an artistic fashion, than a straight forward read, Perspective can be read by opening to any specific page without having to start at the beginning of the book.

Allow me to serve you a sample of the prose, found inside your party favor, this week.

 “The warmth of fall is everywhere.  In the enthusiastic dance of rainbow leaves. In the crisp, crimson crunch of a fresh picked apple. In the ruddy cheeks of exuberant youth. There’s no better time to wrap ourselves in our warmest sweaters, surround ourselves with friends and enjoy the splendor of a crackling fire.”

I chose this verse, as it is in step with the season…

When you  visit My Author Central Page you can see ALL my BOOKS

HEAD HERE, Perspective Kindle for the .99 Kindle Countdown Special through Wednesday, October 4th!

Oh, and thank YOU for leaving a REVIEW!

The party continues next Wednesday, so be sure to return and bring friends!

Perspective it’s all about replacing one thought with another

??????????
More often than not, we find ourselves getting caught up in what we ‘think’ is going on and that can lead us to a variety of conclusions, some of which appeal to us and some that are certainly unappealing. While we may have no control over situations or circumstances, we DO have control over how we choose to look at something, for in reality our thoughts create our perspectives. A casual conversation I had with a friend years ago brought this to light when he looked at me and said, “It’s all about replacing one thought with another!” In that ah-ha moment my life changed for the better. Each and every entry of my book, PERSPECTIVE it’s all about replacing one thought with another is my perspective on something either intellectual or visual. I created this book because these words and pictures help me shift my perspective when I need it the most. Others tell me that this book helps them deal with stress, death, anger and frustration or simply puts a smile on their face when they open to any random page. This is NOT a how-to book, it is merely a silent companion that speak volumes by offering something to think about! Here is the DIRECT LINK for you to ORDER your copy and perhaps an extra copy or two for those you care about! Thank you.

Cover Reveal – Perspective it’s all about replacing one thought with another

I am more than excited to reveal the COVER for my LATEST BOOK that is about to go LIVE! Perspective it’s all about replacing one thought with another is filled with prose and poetry that I have been posting on social media, sending out in emails or otherwise sharing with thousands over the years. People tell me these writings are inspiring, comforting and thought provoking. I have also included several photographs, all taken while I was living in Toledo, OH from 1999-2012. In 2009 I self-published a book with the same title (been out of print since last year) so this is an enhanced re-issue to which I have added more writings and photographs as well as changing the cover. Much to my delight, this book is actually a better price than the original and will be available to MORE people! So ladies and gentlemen, without further ado, here is the COVER for Perspective it’s all about replacing one thought with another, coming SOON to Amazon and other fine retailers!
