    V Karl Whitfield’s new book “Above the Clouds: Taking Flight” is an enticing story that follows the life of a seasoned realtor who is in way over his head

    The recent release “Above the Clouds: Taking Flight” from author V Karl Whitfield is a captivating novel that tells the story of successful realtor Carl Allen Hampton and how his life was turned upside down.

    V Karl Whitfield, a husband, father, grandfather, and new home builder, has completed his new book “Above the Clouds: Taking Flight”. This engrossing novel brings readers into the world of Carl Allen Hampton as he deals with the abrupt changes that life has brought him.

    Whitfield writes, “Before the journey is over, Carl Allen finds himself facing the Detroit Police Department, the Department of Justice, (DOJ), and the Internal Revenue Service, (IRS). These are minor complications, the entanglement with Jessica might just cost him his life. Carl Allen finds out the hard way, when you play with fire, you will probably get burned.”

    V Karl Whitfield’s gripping tale is a look into the life of real estate agent Carl Allen Hampton. The main character’s life is turned upside down when his fiancé leaves him, and it only gets worse from there. His now ex-fiancé Pamela leaves him for his rival Jason Davis. To make matters worse a huge client pulls out of a deal and Carl needs to raise over three million dollars or face bankruptcy. Everything changes when he has a chance encounter with Jessica.

    In what seems like a generous and selfless act Jessica provides the money so Carl won’t go bankrupt. Not long after accepting the money he realizes that this money comes with strings attached. Jessica’s past finds its way to the present and Carl is forced into the middle of it all. Readers will follow along as Carl desperately tries to put the pieces of his life back together.

  • Author Jared Williams’s new book “Doogles and Sports Advice” introduces a fascinating alien character from planet OHN who offers comical sports advice

    Author Jared Williams’s new book “Doogles and Sports Advice” introduces a fascinating alien character from planet OHN who offers comical sports advice

    Recent release “Doogles and Sports Advice” from Page Publishing author Jared Williams introduces Doogles, a half duck and half woozle silly blue alien creature, who attempts to provide sports advice while living here on Earth.

    Jared Williams, who graduated from Sam Houston State University, has completed his new book “Doogles and Sports Advice”: an imaginative tale in which a friendly alien offers sports advice.

    When author Jared Williams was in fifth grade, he designed the alien duck character known as Doogles. Never missing a chance to be creative, Jared continued to explore various artistic avenues, quickly discovering his passion for writing and music. In high school, Jared’s poem “Teenage Reality” won a young writers award and was selected for publication. During this same time, he also became lead vocals for a local rock group.

    Jared received a bachelor’s degree in mass communications, which helped pave the way for his career in marketing. With a few stops along the way, Jared eventually won two AMA Crystal Awards for his creative concepts in marketing. Shortly after that, he decided to go into business for himself.

    Jared is happily married with two children. He is the proud owner of the local Texas marketing agency, Prospecks Marketing. He still enjoys dabbling in music, writing, and other creative side projects, but after a thirty-year wait, Doogles has become a primary focus again.

    Jared summarizes his book by saying, “During Doogles time on our planet he’s noticed many interesting things about us. One thing he learned is that we really enjoy competition and games, especially sports. He understands that we really like to win and like to be the best. So, he makes a comical attempt at coaching us to be the best possible athlete Earth has ever seen.

    Published by Page Publishing, Jared Williams’s imaginative tale follows Doogles as he presents readers with failed sports suggestions and tactics trying to help them reach a superior level of athleticism.

    Readers who wish to experience this creative work can purchase “Doogles and Sports Advice” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

    Author Shares Her Research on the Impact of Global Warming and Current Environmental Policy

    Author warns that the New Green Deal may not actually be beneficial for the environment

    In her retirement years, author Pat Palmer became increasingly concerned about the progression of global warming and the Green New Deal. In her new book “What to Do about CO2: And All Those Other Ghastly Gases,” Palmer shares her perspective on how politics are affecting the public’s view on climate change and renewable energy.

    “What to Do about CO2” showcases Palmer’s research into what is causing the rise in global temperatures, the goals of the Green New Deal, and how politics are affecting the efforts to curb greenhouse gas emissions.

    “I accumulated a lot of research over the two years that I spent writing the book,” Palmer said. “I have so much information gathered that I couldn’t even fit it all into the book!”

    Palmer wants to emphasize to readers that the Green New Deal is not about globally rising temperatures, she believes that it’s also linked to social issues that its supporters want to link to climate change.

    “This book is for all the people who want to protect our environment and are willing to take a hard look at what we are doing in the name of climate change,” Palmer said. “Politicians have convinced people that we are facing an apocalypse. But if you follow the money, you will see the real reason politicians are pushing for these policy changes.”

    With the evidence Palmer presents in her book, Palmer wants to encourage readers to dig deeper into the information being presented on climate change and the Green New Deal, and to seek out the truth that she believes is being hidden by half truths and lies of omission.

    Over 100 Poems to Guide and Inspire Readers in Difficult Times

    Author draws on his time with the Marines in his new collection of inspirational principles and poems

    While serving with the United States Navy as a fleet marine force hospital corpsman, author Jason Henderson learned that not all wounds are visible. Sometimes the healing that the soldiers needed came from emotional support and encouraging words. In his new book, “A Warrior and a Poet: Principles & Poems,” Henderson shares his collection of inspirational words and poems he used to keep marine’s spirits up during deployments.

    “While I was deployed, I was treating a marine, who was having a particularly bad day,” Henderson said. “We talked, and before he left, I shared one of my poems with him. Days later he came to me again and told me that my words had saved his life.”

    Henderson wants to share his uplifting poems with readers to show that we can all be strong in different ways.

    “While I do have my favorites, these poems aren’t written for me,” Henderson said. “My poems are written for others. For anyone who is struggling, needs motivation or encouragement. I hope my book finds that person who can benefit from embracing the world or its experiences.”

    “A Warrior and a Poet” asks readers to abandon their preconceived notions of strength and understand that people from all walks of life can use support during challenging times in their life.

She assures them that life does have a purpose (even when we cannot see it) and that their time on earth is a gift from God. Her book is a collection of original poetry and carefully selected Scriptures to help guide this type of reflection.

    “To cultivate your purpose, you must focus on mindful concentrations to identify, explore, and experience works that are intended to speak to your spiritual growth in God,” said Thompson.

    Dr. Drema Thompson has over thirty years of experience assessing information to promote best practices in organizational business objectives and leader strategic decision making. Through these experiences, she has gained understanding that intentional actions are necessary to achieve preferred outcomes. Her journey toward expressing herself in writing was sparked after completing a rigorous academic doctoral program that led to an intentional focus on individual self-reflection and mindful spiritualness.
