The Cupid of Beverly Hills, she has introduced countless couples who have gone on to get married and live happily ever after—so far. But for every success story, there are more dating disasters, high-maintenance clients, out-of-touch men (and women), and downright comical situations with which she has to contend. .... In Diary of a Beverly Hills Matchmaker, Marla takes her readers for a hilarious romp through her days in an exclusive L.A. matchmaking agency and her daily struggles to keep her self-esteem from imploding in a town where looks are everything and money talks. From juggling the demands her out-of-touch clients and trying her best to meet the capricious demands of an insensitive boss to the ups and downs of her own marriage with a Latin husband who doesn’t think that she is “domestic” enough, Marla writes with charm and self-effacement about the universal struggles that all women face in their lives. Readers will laugh, cringe, and cry as they journey with her through outrageous stories about the indignities of dating in Los Angeles, dealing with overblown egos, vicariously hobnobbing with celebrities, and navigating the wannabe-land of Beverly Hills. In a land where perfection is almost a prerequisite, even Marla can’t help but run for the Botox every once in a while….00:45:00Pam OsbeynoMarla Martenson,matchmaking,love,relationships,Pam OsbeyWelcome to the world of Marla Martenson.

Shaundra has felt that way ever since she could learn how to read people. This coming of age tale follows a young African American girl growing up in a world where she has decided to make her own rules. When Shaundra was a little girl her mother moved her from south Alabama where that was the only world she was exposed and where people accepted her with no questions asked. She and her mother moved to sunny California where life was unexpected and people were completely different from how she thought people should be. While materialistically Shaundra’s life couldn’t have been any better, emotionally she is weighed down by her friends, family and her ‘love/lust’ life. Because she is smarter than the average kids her age she learns how to deal with the tough situations as they happen. No adult truly knows how to deal with her because they are not sure if they’re talking to a child or their peer. No one her age can deal with her ‘adult’ like attitude, so consequently she loses friends just by trying to help them. Shaundra is an opinionated girl. If Shaundra doesn’t agree with someone’s life style she will definitely tell them, which is also something that keeps her friendless most of the time. This is one girl who at a very young age set out to do only what she wanted to do. About the Author: Tekeilla Renee Peterson holds a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Communications with an emphasis in Journalism from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. She was a staff writer for the Poly Post newspaper for two years and she writes for non-profit organizations. She now inspires to help others in their conquest of publishing their first novels.

He quickly made his presence felt in the fast growing genre of Urban Literature after the completion of his incarceration. Ironically, having spent more than half his life in the streets and a substantial amount of time in prison, J.M. Benjamin’s only credential as a street tale story teller is simply his own first hand experience and knowledge of what the street life consists of. “I was in the Game wholeheartedly, since I was 12 years old, and throughout that time I survived near death experiences and escaped prison as being my permanent place of residency. For that I am blessed. Those are just two out of many things that inspire and motivate me to write, And if my stories save at least one person’s life, whether it be death or imprisonment, or cause them to change their game plan, then my work is serving it’s purpose,” he says when interviewed by The New York Times and The Courier News newspapers. J.M. is also a motivational speaker, mentor and activist within his community. He shares his experiences and knowledge of the streets as well as how writing was and continues to be his outlet at various high and junior schools, colleges, probation and religious programs for the youth, institutions and re-entry programs for ex- and incarcerated men and women, and urban communities throughout his travels, in hopes to make a difference.

I come from a family of storytellers and that creative side of me has transferred into every area of my life. I've been writing most of my adult life in a professional role. I've been a policy writer, technical writer and technical trainer for several government and non-profit organizations. I write inspirational sayings and I my first fiction novel Trinity's Hope is being released this month (May). This first novel has grown into a series of six novels and the second, Destiny's Journey is due out in December 2010. I'm so excited... Yet with all this writing poetry has been one of those things that’s always been a part of my life. I published Love Notes as a compilation of poems I had with the common theme of love. On the personal side, I'm married to a real sweetie, Nick, for 22 years and we have five kids ages 20 - 12. Yep...my house is real busy! I'm originally from Los Angeles, graduated from Southern University in Baton Rouge and I did graduate work at Univ. of Phoenix in Los Angeles.

Evans to create and complete her debut novel, Winter’s Kisses. “I have always wanted to write, be it short poems, short stories, whatever came to my imagination. I knew one day I would have a book and now it has happened.” “In June 2009, I was standing at my bedroom window, looking out at the flowers and thinking, ‘Lord, will I ever get a job again?’ And then the answer was given to me. My job was there waiting on me; it had been all the time. I only had to claim it. My job was writing, thus the concept which became Winter’s Kisses.” A native of Kingston, Jamaica, Pauline holds an Associate’s Degree in Paralegal Technology from Fayetteville Technical Community College and a Bachelor’s Degree in Paralegal Studies from Campbell University. Additionally, she earned a certificate in Nursing Assistant from Daytona Beach College in 1995. Self-described as a learner, an achiever, confident and disciplined relater who is passionate for excellence.

Notably, the poem Jena Six: Our Strangefruit Is Still Hanging, emphatically questioning how far African Americans have come, was published in TRIBES Magazine. Earning a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with concentration in Marketing, her essays on savvy marketing strategies are among her most notable writings as a scholar. But creative writing is undeniably her first love and therefore dictates her courageous approach to storytelling. She found that it allowed her to fearlessly express herself—empowering her spirit. One day, a piece of paper and a pen, having always been her friend, sparked her to journalize the dark hours that felt like the end of the world. She cried lonely tears realizing how many times she and death had come face to face. But she was able to smile too, when memories of the good in her life wiped her tears away, fueling her poetic artistry. Self-love prevailed. Then God directed her hand to tell the world, “I made it and so can you!” Her relentless tenacity has been deeply inspired by the motivational teachings of Iyanla Vanzant, the profound spirit of Maya Angelou, and the giving soul of Oprah Winfrey. With her roots firmly planted in Chicago, she has lived in Los Angeles and currently resides in Atlanta, Georgia. She enjoys yoga, meditation, singing, and playing tennis in her spare time.

Desperate to keep her old lifestyle a secret from her fiancé, Dawn comes up with an elaborate scheme to make sure she weds Jeffrey at any cost, but Jeffrey attends a bachelor party where he meets, and instantly falls for, the naive and beautiful Shauna, and he and Dawn’s relationship becomes compromised.

Ms. Bacon uses her poetic prowess to sling a powerful testimonial of victory over a history of childhood abuse, miscarriage, criminal activity, two failed marriages, grieving the death of her mother, and almost losing her own life to domestic violence. Her inspirational journey to the destination of loving self is told in a way that has been referred to as raw and uncut, yet beautifully addictive. In the five years Ms. Bacon has been spilling ink, she has written literally thousands of pieces of poetry in which she has tasted her own blood and offered the flavor to her readers as well. She began recording approximately a year into her writing career, and found a liberation in expressing herself through spoken word. Currently, she is in the editing process of her memoirs Bruised but not Broken. 01:00:00Pam OsbeynoHeidi Bacon,Pam Osbey,poetry,life,spoken wordBorn in Wurzberg, Germany during the tumultuous and turbulent Vietnam Era to an acute schizophrenic American soldier and his abused wife, it seemed that Heidi Bhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/literarypizzazz/2009/12/19/inspire-higher-welcomes-christian-author-sharon-olBookshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/literarypizzazz/2009/12/19/inspire-higher-welcomes-christian-author-sharon-ol/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/literarypizzazz/2009/12/19/inspire-higher-welcomes-christian-author-sharon-olSat, 19 Dec 2009 15:30:00 GMTInspire Higher welcomes Christian Author Sharon OliverHer book, Deliver Me From My Enemies, is a published effort you will want to know about! In this much anticipated sequel to Keep Your Enemies Closer, Charlotte Morley is still in South Carolina waiting to learn the fate of a relative. In the meantime, there is another loved one caught up in some serious scandal. Charlotte had assumed that her Aunt Ramiyah’s motive for killing her husband was due to an abusive marriage. However, in a series of letters written to Charlotte by Ramiyah it is revealed that the true motive springs deep from beneath the family tree and is steep in secret sins. Also joining the eclectic and sometimes eccentric cast of characters is the effervescent Hiawatha Jones. Hiawatha, the son of the tart-tongued-tell-it-like-it-is Miss Sista, needs to be delivered from a few issues of his own. This delicious slice of life story is filled with suspense, humor and insight. Deliver Me From My Enemies deftly demonstrates how God can use or heal anybody in or from anything.

Even as she struggles to escape the image and legacy of this enigma of a woman, she finds herself unconsciously acting out her mother's (and grandmother's) past mistakes. Her relationships with men, although few and far between, has been tainted by "the thing she cannot say" and her faith has been weakened by the emotional and spiritual blows her life has taken. This dynamic story of deliverance keeps readers, page by page, on the edge of their proverbial seats, wondering if CJ will simply succumb to the darkness that has chased her soul for as long as she could remember or if she will be the one to finally put an end to the generational curse that has tried to consume her family. Will she find true love, joy, and peace for the first time? Come Join Author Tracy M.
