Like all self-published writers, I can’t (or is it won’t?) afford to […]

Fighting words, but Ron Charles at The Washington Post has a point.

At The Post, we’re getting about 150 books a day. A day. And these are books that had to find an agent. And then a publisher. And then were professionally edited. And now are being professionally marketed by people with money on the line. Many of these books, of course, are bad, but many — far more than we can review — are interesting, engaging, informative, moving, timely and/or newsworthy for various reasons.

Are there great, truly great self-published books being produced — and ignored —

  I’ve had three serious jolts to my head, all were life altering.  Brain science is still a subject that needs a lot more study and investigation in my opinion.  The brain goes through so many changes in a lifetime: car accidents, sports accidents, kids falling down hitting their heads, hormonal changes, diet, old age . . . it’s a wonder we survive all of this trauma.  The big problem is that when these injuries occur, most people don’t realize any damage has been done.  They just know that people suddenly are reacting differently to them, they can’t do math any […]

Every writer tries to write every day even if they experience a bad case of constant writer’s block. Crafting contents which can pique reader’s interest instantly is already a challenging task. However, apart from writing, there is an important skill that all writers must learn to develop. It is editing or proofreading their own work.

Some writers think like they don’t need to worry about their spelling and grammar. They believe that it is their editor’s job to pick up spelling mistakes and some basic grammar problems on their written work. Sorry to disappoint you, but it’s also the writer’s […]

I don’t actually remember how I first met Renee Robinson. I think it all started when some unmitigated ‘Ho wrote a cruel review about her writing, and I jumped to her defense. That sounds about like me. Anyone who could write cruelly about someone who does what Renee does with her life deserves a smack-down. Of course, I have never met her in person, but I have been corresponding with her for a while. Renee is a Terminal Cancer victim, who just received the dreaded “There is nothing else we can do” message, a message I never received myself, but […]

Author Tevia Feng talks about the research for the book, “Meridian Qigong: The Modern Research of Meridians and Muscle Fascia”

There has been ongoing research into physically identifying where the meridian systems actually are. In his groundbreaking book Anatomy Trains, Thomas Meyers worked on dissecting cadavers to understand the inner workings of the muscle fascia. He discovered previously unknown lines of muscle fascia that were interwoven throughout the body. He called these connections The Myofascial Meridians. At the time, he was not looking for, nor was he referring to the Asian Meridian system. It was only later that he […]
