I’m Not Chinese: A Tale of Satori, Cooking and Self-Discovery
Price range: $3.99 through $9.99For the past thirty years I’ve operated a Szechuan take out concession at Grateful Dead like musical events, dog shows, Harley bike events, you name it. Sold 16 tons of noodles and thousands of egg rolls doing it, met lots of great people, had lots of self-discovery, learned how to profitably operate a business, and lived the talk as well as the walk. Please, ask me questions. The book is about all of the above and the title is a pejorative reference to things not always being what they are assumed to be. It’s about claiming responsibility for your life, operating a business, finding fulfillment and joy and finding an escape clause for being who I am and whom I wanted to become. A self fulfilling prophesy. This is a how to tale for anyone wishing to take charge of their lives and begin living their dreams. Hopefully it is easy to read, easy to comprehend and perhaps even the inspiration we need to ‘get on with living the dream’.

It’s Been A Pretty Good Ride
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99The genesis of this book came from Bob Harshbarger’s three daughters. They had been subjected to numerous tales over the years about where the Harshbargers came from and countless stories (mostly humorous) about their father growing up in a wheelchair. Bob’s children have encouraged him to write down some of these accounts; thus, along with some genealogical history, this “book” began.
Oh, it didn’t start as a book. Bob told himself, “I’m no author,” but he decided to expand his reports to include hilarious events and stories about other people along the way that have been valuable pieces of his life’s puzzle. We are all subjects of problems in one form or another and the attitude with which these bumps in the road are addressed will someday define what one sees when reflecting back on their own life. Bob likes to think that this little book will provide not only some humor to the reader, but also inspiration for their own lives.

At work in Texas, they called me Mr. Purple. from an obscure corner of the Third World came this educator with his bio, love affair, work exploits, bittersweet memoir, and family history replete with actual events and genuine people, rolled into one. With the pandemic as standpoint, here is a look-back at the itsy-bitsy events that form the collective tale of my family and me – and my pursuit of the American Dream.

The Impact of Organizational Capital Investment on Employee Innovation in the Manufacturing Industry
Price range: $3.99 through $8.95This study involved an exploration of the impact of organizational capital investment on employee innovation in the manufacturing industry. The
overarching question was: Does organizational capital investment impact employee innovation in the manufacturing industry? Organizations tend to
place much emphasis on how skill drives innovation, but not on how capital investment impact employee innovation. The research was guided using a
qualitative phenomenological case study design to probe the impact of capital investment on employee innovation. Participants were selected through a convenience and purposive sampling method using the researcher’s personal professional network as well as the snowball method to seek participants from individuals’ referrals. Data collection involved personal interviews, audio recording, and note taking. The assumption was that employee innovation is not an option but a necessity, because organizations compete on global fronts for resources and market share. Consequently, capital investment in machinery and employee innovation becomes symbiotic in nature, not mutually exclusive. Results showed employee innovation can be impacted and enhanced through the acquisition and application of appropriate technological capital investment. The researcher recommends further research to ascertain whether the amount of organizational capital investment is proportional to the development of employee innovativeness.

The Men of Genesis
Price range: $3.99 through $18.99With so much going on in today’s world, there is no longer greater time than now for preteens and young adults to learn, perhaps for the first time or maybe just to be reminded of, the stories that graced the pages of the book of Genesis. The Men of Genesis brings the young reader into the lives of the men whose faith in the Lord sustained them through various, some unimaginable, hardships. these were men who believed in God, desired to obey His commands, sacrificed much but did so for His glory, not for the satisfaction of or acceptance by their fellow humans. Much can be learned from them.
The Men of Genesis was written for young readers to get acquainted with God’s handiwork in the first six days of earth’s creation. They will read about God’s blessings bestowed on a man named Noah who believed in and obeyed God. And it was that-his faith-that saved him and his family. Following Noah are the stories of Abraham and God’s covenant with him, Abraham’s son Isaac and his wife Rebecca and their struggles with favoritism, the difference that went on between brothers Jacob and Esau, and the beautiful story of Joseph who successfully overcame the betrayal of his brothers nearly two thousand years before the birth of Jesus Christ who would also victoriously overcome the betrayal of His own people.
As the reader turns the pages, he or she will be reminded of God’s immense love for His people-His desire to have a relationship with those who truly seek Him, yesterday and today.
The Men of Genesis is a book that details the strength and perseverance of our ancestors and provides the first glimpse of a truly loving God.
