Struggling To Be Me: No Longer Silent & Invisible At The Table
Price range: $3.99 through $9.99As a black woman in the United States of America with a career in STEM and Ministry, my life began with two strikes from birth. People made choices for and about me based on how they saw me through their presupposition.

Today, women in leadership like myself continue to experience gender discrimination by men and women, especially as black, brown and indigenous women advance their careers in academia, institutions, politics and corporations. It’s the verbal and non-verbal communication that tells women this isn’t your place. -

God’s Si
Price range: $3.99 through $12.99Physics is a cause-and-effect manifestation of a process where there is a beginning and an end. It employs the concept of time and space, such as if there is space between two points, it will need time to traverse from one point to the next point. Creation of our universe, therefore, has a beginning being caused by the Big Bang producing along its path space and time with an ending destiny of being gobbled up by dark energy utilizing gravity to shrink time and space. As space and time are consumed by God’s (dark) energy, God’s kingdom remains intact since it has no beginning or end or, more emphatically, it has never undergone the process of creation. It only proves God has never been created since in God’s world, there are no such entities as space and time, and creation can only prosper within the fixtures of space and time. We can therefore conclude that God is in a “state of being,” energized by a super pent-up domain where time and space cannot escape.

A People Set Apart
Price range: $3.99 through $26.99When chance, the flamboyant scion of a well-to-do family, makes it to the United States from his war-torn Biafra, it doesn’t occur to him that life isn’t going to be the same as it is in his homeland.
But he learns fast. And by sheer will and personal grit, he is able to bulldoze his way in his new abode. Turning adversities into advantage he develops one of the most enduring relationships ever imagined. Turnkey, his nemesis turns friend, and over a short period of time, that metamorphosis yields an instant result. Chance schools him to change course and makes him to understand that he can buy himself out of the box seemingly reserved for him and his ilk that will place him in low level of society’s cadet in perpetuity. Having seen the light, they hit the ground running. Their friendship bossoms, and Chance becomes his greatest confidante.
When Chance offers to take him and a group of his American friends to his homeland of Biafra, a country remembered in flashpoints of war and pillage and destruction, and man’s inhumanity to man, Turnkey is there to defend his friend and dispel all erroneous notions of a people he hasn’t met except one man.
Biafra, plundered since time immemorial, and thought dead, has risen from the ashes of pillagery by dint, and indefatigable spirit of her irrepressible people to hoist her flag in the firmament for all to see. In Biafra, Africa is unbound.
Turnkey, a fortuitious child, and even luckier than a cat with more than nine lives, doesn’t leave anything to chance. Like his father, he toils from a young age knowing where he’s coming from but also with an eye to where he’s heading to. Yet, it’s him that the mighty God has had his path cleared before him.
And when fortune smiles on him owing to a huge bequeathal of his granduncle, it’s to Chance that he turns to, and it’s in his friend’s homeland that he chooses to invest his largesse because he wholeheartedly believes that they’re a people a set apart in spite of the challenges right and about them.

Ron’s Ramblings: Characters, Critters and Us Cantankerous Rednecks
Price range: $5.99 through $19.99Big Sky Country is one of the many nicknames for the state of Montana, the place the author calls home. While Montana is a diverse state in people and in geography, north-eastern Montana is characterized by soft rolling hills and sharp coulees; scrub grass, sage brush and wild flowers cover the prairie lands and tall cottonwood, ash and willow trees shade the waterways, all outlined against skies a magnificent shade of blue which make this countryside unforgettable and unique. The people that have and still do call this place home are just as unforgettable and unique as the skies.
This is a collection of stories and tales, mostly centered around the rural area of north-eastern Montana; some are from the authors own experience, including family and local history, as well as stories of wildlife, hunting and farming, and some belong to others who have been kind enough to share their own histories and recollections.

Pricing the Profitable Sale: The Manager’s Guide to Value Pricing
Price range: $7.99 through $26.99Pricing the Profitable Sale: The Manager’s Guide to Value Pricing represents a complete revision of a prior work entitled Pricing for Profit: The Manager’s Guide to Market Oriented Pricing. Like the earlier book, its purpose is to assist corporate managers in realizing the full potential available in the product or service price as a company’s primary revenue and profit generator. The book is a radical departure from standard texts in its practical and quantitative approach. Because of its heavy use of formulas, graphs, reference tables, and pricing rules and guidelines, it will appeal primarily to marketers with a background in the sciences or engineering and less so to individuals who prefer a less rigorous treatment of the subject. A special feature of the book is three chapters devoted to price optimization techniques for determining sell prices of products or services designed to achieve maximum sales revenues, market share, or profits for the firm. Numerous examples throughout the text demonstrate the use of the material presented. Pricing the Profitable Sale should also be of interest to academia. In a business school MBA program, it could serve either as the primary text in a course on pricing or, in an advanced marketing class, as a supplement to one of the standard marketing texts.
Peter Zell grew up in Stuttgart, Germany, and Oak Park, Illinois, where he attended high school. He holds a B.S. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Illinois. After two years of active duty with the U.S. Army Reserve, Mr. Zell was employed as an engineer by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration in Virginia.

Happy Holy & Horny: Marriage and Sex Is A God Idea
Price range: $8.99 through $15.99“We understood what has caused us to fight for 5 years of marriage, after reading HHH our intimacy, sex and relationship with God is no longer the same!”
Ronnie and Desiree.”
“OMG! this book is HOT and Holy at the same time. Excellent!”
Nicholas Bigg Jr.”
Within these pages are true stories that highlight the four areas that can also cause divorce and infidelity: Communication, Money, Sex and Trust. As you read these sometimes very provocative, bedroom language, real life episodes, the common trend that you’ll observe with these dynamic people, is that they honestly love God and want to please Him. This gave them confidence, boldness and an authority that I have read in the Bible, but seldom seen, until now.
I challenge you to take a leap of faith in your marriage, knowing what God has joined no other should destroy. Invite your spouse to join you on this intimate thought-provoking journey.
There are no boundaries in the bedroom.

Choices: Like waves going to distant shores, will we ever really understand the consequences of our choices?
$9.99We all make choices in our lives. Sometimes, the freedom to pick between many different options can feel more like bondage than freedom. Sometimes, our freedom of choice is a prison. Literally, yet, God can take any choice we make and turn it into His glory and victory.
Author Sylvia Ramos-Paneque’s CHOICES: A Bail Bondswoman’s Reflections is the harrowing, autobiographical account of the many life choices she made that led her to serve jail time in a Mexican prison for smuggling drugs in the early 1980s. Within this compelling memoir, Ramos-Paneque guides readers through her early days of growing up in “Rat City,” a.k.a. White Center, a suburb of Seattle, through adulthood, and her growing faith journey along the way. Readers learn about the tough choices made in the author’s life, from becoming a ninth-grade school drop-out to getting married at the age of sixteen and ultimately drifting into her role as a drug smuggler, running cocaine from South America.
This riveting story showcases how God was with the author through all of her choices, and, in His powerful economy, everything can be used. After years of making “wrong” decisions, God’s choice to provide the author with employment as a bail bondswoman for over the following twenty years turned her choices into God’s decision to help countless others in similar situations. With God’s help, our darkest and most painful experiences become His greatest assets in helping others.

The Torch of Christ
Price range: $9.99 through $15.99The Torch of Christ is written to reveal the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ and his journey while living on earth. His journey was filled with many obstacles, persecutions, bigotry, hatred, and racism. Sound familiar? Are you going through a difficult time in your life’s journey as a result of the above obstacles?
Jesus was beaten, spat upon, and judged. He was truly treated unfairly. Ultimately, betrayal and hatred led him to be put to death. Why? Because of his love for all mankind. However, before he was condemned to die, he chose twelve men (disciples) to journey with him as he laid down the road map for all to follow who believe in him. His Word-the truth-would be carried throughout the world.
No matter what struggles or obstacles you have faced or may encounter, Jesus promised to never leave you, forsake you, or abandon you. Truly, he never said that our life’s journey would be easy. In fact, he said, “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world, you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). My friend, know that you are more than a conqueror in Jesus Christ!
At the end of his life’s journey, Jesus met with his disciples on a mountain before being lifted up to heaven to be with God his Father. Jesus tells his chosen disciples, “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you; and I am with you always to the end of age” (Matthew 28:19).
This is when Jesus passed the torch to light up the world. The torch of Christ is a tiny footprint of his life’s journey. Through his journey, you will understand why we must believe and accept him to pass on his Word. His Word encourages us to never give up. Pray to Jesus Christ and faithfully stand on his Word. As Jesus strengthens you, you will be equipped and encouraged to reach the lost and hurting by sharing the truth, and passing the torch of Christ!

Metamorphosis of a Young Maiden
Price range: $9.99 through $18.99From December 1969 until June 1970, Dr. Wm. Patric Leedom’s love interest, Shelley, allowed herself to go through major changes-from a naïve, shy recluse who never considered sex in relation to herself, to a more sophisticated young woman trusting another for the first time, feeling completed and totally loved for the first time. Metamorphosis of a Young Maiden is a collection of love letters between the two from 47 years ago. It is a powerful example of two lovers going deep into life and making themselves vulnerable to each other as they build toward an intense relationship. We should all remember to take risks with our partners and be encouraged to seek the deeper meanings and experiences that life can offer.

Miss Manhattan
$9.99Miss Manhattan truly captures the richness of diversity and the simultaneity of life happening in New York. The text is rich, tumbling, and layered, yet never chaotic as the sensations of people, cars, birds, flowers, and all forms of city life cascading around the speaker’s (and reader’s) attention. This unique collection cleverly displays the inherent resonance of life in the city, in a beautiful, joyful, and sometimes riotous, but always with a sense of life and creative force, not destruction or entropy. These poems live in the individual body, even as they describe an external and collective experience.

Return to Vietnam, The Memories: Facing my Demons and Coming to Terms With Them
Price range: $10.99 through $17.99When I was waiting to board the aircraft in Saigon in July 1968, following my 13-month tour of Vietnam, the last thing I would have expected was to come back to Vietnam. Not until forty-five years after the Vietnam War ended, I was dealing with nightmares, and was diagnosed with PTSD. I was encouraged by my counselor and others to write about my experiences from Vietnam. That resulted in my first book, You Are Never Alone. I started to have a better handle on my daily images, nightly dreams, and nightmares. It was about that time I began thinking about the possibility of returning to Vietnam to face my demons.
This book, “Return to Vietnam-The Memories,” Began a trip to face my demons. It was more than I expected, by meeting a VC soldier during peacetime and making friends with several gracious Vietnamese people. A cruise down the Mekong River brought memories of crossing the river during convoys. My main goal of the trip was to find the orphanage in MyTho where during a VC attack a couple of kids were killed. Having a knowledgeable tour guide that followed many leads to locate our objective worked endlessly. We saw where the orphanage was, which now was replaced with a school, but finding the last of the living nuns that worked at the orphanage in 1967 when the VC attacked and interacting with someone who was virtually there and remembered that day was overwhelming. Sister Renee and I visited parts for three days. This book covers the details of this fantastic trip and the results it had on me.

I Believe in Santa Claus and I Believe in God : Why I Believe
$10.99Mr. Currie discusses how it can be difficult to share the reasons he believes in God, which is what motivated him to write this book. The main thesis is that it makes as much sense scientifically and logically to believe in God as to not believe. He accepts that you may disagree with his choice, but hopes you will consider that belief is not necessarily a delusion or something that ruins everything. With some discussion about what we mean by belief and God, he presents the reasons and evidence that support his belief. Some reasons to believe are based on things he doesn’t believe. He doesn’t believe that nothing produces something, that matter has always existed, or that intelligence, consciousness, emotions and a sense of morality arose from inanimate matter. He believes that there is evidence of design in creation and life that points to God. These things require an autonomous, intelligent, external to our time and space entity, God. He also believes that the arguments against God are not adequate to negate the plausibility of sensible belief. He believes in free will. A person can choose to believe or not. Either choice is based on a person’s understanding of the evidence along with faith.

Midge: My Life Story
Price range: $10.99 through $16.99My hopes for writing this story about Midge is that children with disabilities or children who have switched foster homes a lot will benefit them. It doesn’t matter what has happened to you, it is how you handle it and have the foresight to realize that it is not your fault. Your personality is what shines through. Midge went through a lot of changes and handicaps, but her personality shined through, and no one knew. What people saw was a sweet little dog.
How she handled the many transitions that she went through was amazing.
