MS. B. AND HER WONDROUS BEES BY RAHMAN NEWDLES


































ABOUT THE AUTHOR



A little about me....I am member of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators with affiliation in the Midsouth chapter. I am also a student at Tennessee State University in Nashville, TN, where I am currently pursuing a bachelor's degree is Architectural Engineering. Even though my current career patyh differs from that of a writer, it has in no way affected my writing career. Along with going to school and writing I consider my self a young advocate for children's literacy, so I donate my some of my time to reading to children in the public school sector because I truly feel that there is need for more support in reading and literacy in public school areas. One thing I plan to do after I have successfully published my first book Ms. B. and Her Wondrous Bees is, donate 35% of my proceeds made from the sale of my book to the PENCIL Foundation, here in Nashville, TN (pencilfoundation.org).
Thanks,
Allen "Rahman Newdles" Wells


AUTHOR NOTE



The idea for Ms. B. and Her Wondrous Bees was developed while I was in an individual meeting with a past Creative Writing instructor. While we were in her office, she made it a note to inform me that there was a bee’s nest in her office and that the maintenance crew had not made around to ridding her office of the bees. I found the bees very amusing and the thought of her just sitting comfortably in her office while the bees roamed freely in her office gave me the idea for this story. I quickly wrote the idea down on a napkin that was on her desk. (Something I did very often when I had an idea.)
I had been working on this project for more than three years because I would work on it for a few days and when I felt like my mind could not brainstorm anymore, I would put my notes away and spend my time doing something else.
It wasn’t until this year, after I completed my first book Shrimp So Plenty Opossums Too Many, did I realize that I needed to stop procrastinating, (because I realized that was procrastinating…Ha!), and just write, write until my hands were swollen.  Furthermore, working with my teacher Ms. Parham, whom I was introduced to by my former English teacher, Dr. Houston, made me better understand my potential as a writer. I think that working with her on both projects gave me motivation to actually complete them.
The road to completing this book has been a wonderful experience. However, when you complete a work, no matter what type of project it is, finishing it has the best feeling ever!

Written By:    Rahman Newdles
Illustrated By: Joshua Wright

Ms B. and her Wondrous Bees, is the story of Ms. B., an unusually odd third grade teacher who keeps bees in her classroom. But she doesn’t let them fly all wild and loose. Oh no! Ms. B. keeps her bees in her big oak closet, she keeps them in her big oak desk, and she even keeps them in the bee-shaped cupboard where they have created a nest!

However, things take a turn for the worst when Principal Jubilee forces Ms. B to get rid of each and every bee because not school shall have a single bee,  as stated in rule thirty-three.

Oh what will Ms. B. do?

Seeing that their beloved teacher has a problem, her students brainstorm ideas to help Ms. B.
Will her students be able to save Ms. B. and her Wondrous Bees???

This story would be a great picture book for children aged 5-9 years old. The story a nice message presented in a casual way.

"FUCKED UP POETRY FOR FUCKED UP PEOPLE" BY LIAM BOND























Hi folks, today I would like to introduce you to a fabulous book "fucked up poetry for fucked up people"! an apt title for this explosion of poetry by a confident young writer who is not scared to show his emotions in writing.

The book covers many subjects including love, life, death and murder from the mind of a writer who can record true emotions in a poetry scenario.

I was unable to see a preview of the book as Lulu was playing up, however I can imagine it to be well written with the writers imagination running riot.

I have known Liam for a while, have visited his poetry site and read some extraordinary works so I am sure the book will contain much of what you expect from him.

Liam is on twitter as well as facebook, his twitter nickname is @liambondage .

here is the link to his book which is on sale NOW.

FUCKED UP POETRY FOR FUCKED UP PEOPLE

please support new writers and at least pop over to review their work, you will not be dissapointed.

"DISCOVERY AT ROSEHILL" BY KATHRYN BROWN


I'm just so incredibly proud to make this announcement today; my book is now available to buy and I am ecstatic! I never thought this day would come. It's taken nearly three years from typing Chapter One to having it published. In between that time, I have of course had a family to look after, a farm to maintain, and I spent six months out of action due to having epileptic seizures. But it's here, it's in print and it's available. When I got the copy to approve, I held it in my hands and just stared at it, not really knowing what to do with it. I carefully opened it up and checked the formatting, which I've had done by a professional known as Andrew Brenton. But I guess it's one of those surreal moments when a person doesn't really know if this is happening; a few minutes of pure "me-time" when I reflected on the past three years and the hoops I've jumped through in order to achieve this ambition.

I've dedicated the book to my dad. He would have been immensely proud of me and I am sure he will be smiling now as he watches me in this overwhelmingly proud state of mind. I've never been one to blow my own trumpet, I'm useless at selling myself (yes, stop laughing at the back), but I know I'm going to have to if I want to sell my work. I've set up a page on this blog called "Buy My Book". You can go there and buy a signed copy either through PayPal or by cheque. If you prefer, you can buy at Lulu, I know a lot don't use PayPal. Obviously, if you buy through Lulu, the copy you receive won't be signed. I doubt I'll ever be the next Catherine Cookson, but I'm so thrilled to be here telling you this news and I know some of you will appreciate a signed copy more. You may want to read "The Blurb" which you can find by clicking on the box above "Discovery at Rosehill - The Blurb". That is the descriptive text that is supposed to entice you into buying the book, normally found on the back cover.

I've mentioned you all in the acknowledgements; not by name of course, but as my blogging friends as a whole. Your support and encouragement has been amazing and I thank you for sticking with me and continuing to read my blog.



folks this looks like a fantastic book, if you are interested in buying it please visit this link today.

"Slipping Back and Forth Between Parallels" by April Higney

Picture
ABOUT THE BOOK.


Slipping Back and Forth Between Parallels is a psychological thriller/romance (adult material) about a man, lost, within the realms of a dreamworld placed into tragic and traumatic experiences, searching for a sense of reality and truth of love.

~ "John" has had the "perfect" life, or at least that is what he can remember to be true, believing in it. His heart is devoted to a woman with the beauty and poise of a model, but a sudden injury finds him in a place questioning who he is, where he is from, and twisting his frame of thought. Everything seems real, even the dreams touching all senses, yet slipping back and forth between each one, to a place where he is with Isabella, and to another with a new love beginning.

There is far more to Isabella than meets the eye, bringing him through memories but ones he struggles to recall, and the merging love with Lillian contains unusual connections from her life to his, scattered amidst the dreams, and this surreal sense of reality. John finds himself grasping portions of each moment to hold onto as he discovers more of how imperfect his life and relationship really had been, or even if those portions he feels aware of had occurred at all.
