Sixteen Thousand Six Hundred Eighty-Five Sunrises: Dad Stories
Price range: $2.99 through $23.99Sixteen Thousand Six Hundred Eighty-five Sunrises is a collection of humorous episodes concerning the life of John Estall Berry Jr. Most of the time, I was a willing participant in these, as I like to call them ‘Dad Stories.’ Dad only lived a short time here on earth, but each day he lived was filled with fun, as well as some not-so-fun teaching moments. Over the years, our family has recounted our memories and smile, cry, or simply laugh ourselves silly. Minus a smidge of poetic license and perhaps just a hint of exaggeration by the author, these stories are
as truthfully told as can possibly be.”

A Private Life
Price range: $3.99 through $11.99Don’t get me wrong here, I’ve had an amazing life, the last thing that I want anyone to think is that this book, My Private Life, is about sour grapes. I consider myself a true American red-blooded capitalist like all other good Americans. This book is about my experiences growing up, my experiences fighting back and growing up to become the best that I can be.
Growing up black in the South, I felt that I had the cards stacked against me from the start. Despite that, I managed to get an education, join the United States Marine Corps and start a successful company. I’m not afraid of hard work either. I paid for tuition by picking up trash after school, delivering papers before school and working in a shipyard. I owned a boutique, ran and built a successful company from the ground with my own blood, sweat and tears.
There are a million different ways that my life could have turned out, but I wouldn’t change it for anything. This is my story, My Private Life, I hope you enjoy reading my story as much as I enjoyed living it.

Driven By The Spirit
Price range: $3.99 through $15.99When we think of ourselves as children of God, we tend to imagine ourselves as small children, dependent and trusting. A better analogy would be to think of ourselves as adolescents. Anyone who has raised a child to adulthood can understand the dilemma of wanting our children to become independent, successful members of society, but realizing as they make their way in the world they will make mistakes. They will get hurt. God did not create us as robots programmed for total obedience. He knows that we will make poor choices as we grow. We will face trials and we will, at times, question His love for us. Just as the parent of an adolescent, God wants us to come to Him for advice, consolation and love. He wants us to remember all He has taught us, all He has done for us, and how much He loves us. He wants our love and devotion in spite of the hardships we face or successes we achieve. When I think about those who don’t believe they need God in their lives, it brings to mind the lonely widow who sits in her home day after day, hoping for the moment when her child will call or come to see her. Some never will. How sad is that!

I believe everyone in life’s first love is God, everything else comes after. One should become successful at anything that holds their attention. One should become a successful husband or wife and a parent. The impact of my legacy should be one that shows a history of stability and achievements that were not supposed to happen to an individual such as myself. I would like people to speak of me as a devoted husband and father, a conscientious family member and a caring and loving friend. I must be remembered for being a hard worker, one who worked hard to achieve much. People will remember me for my self-worth, but above all, my greatest achievements in this life have been my marriage to my wife and the raising of my son. -
