Make It Out Alive

 



Make It Out Alive: 


Are you ready to take a break from reality and head off on a magical journey of danger and discovery?

Do you yearn for a thrilling read to lift you out of the mundane and get your heart pumping?

Make It Out Alive tells the story of Violet, a young girl living in a fantasy world who has been forced through circumstances out of her control, to live by stealing essential food and goods just to ensure that she and her witch grandmother survive from day to day. 
But living this way was always bound to catch up with her, and now, as refugees living in the forest on the outskirts of the kingdom, Violet’s enforced misdemeanors are about to bring her whole world crashing down around her. 
The King has had enough of her lawless ways and sends Ryland, a skilled and fearless bounty hunter, to track Violet down and return her to the kingdom where she will face execution. But when Ryland and Violet become lost in the forest, their own survival becomes their only goal. As each realizes that they must rely on the other to get out of the forest alive, they begin to grow closer as an unexpected bond forms between them. 
What perils will they face as they seek a way out? Is anywhere safe? Will they ever reach a place of safety? And what of the relationship they have formed? Will Violet still be led to her death for the sake of a bag of money?
In her latest book, EmmaELLIS tackles issues such as finding love suddenly, unexpectedly, and through an unlikely source and challenges readers to think about the decisions they would make in similar situations, forcing them to question their own morality. But she does so in a safe space – a fantasy world in the pages of a book. You may not even realize at the time that you are making moral judgments as you are swept along with the story with the pair facing one tragedy after another.
Emma is a writer who loves to travel and is inspired by Paris – the city of love – in her writing. In Make It Out Alive, she introduces us to Violet, a girl who is non-conformist in a way that many of us would like to imagine ourselves to be. Violet is a good person who has rejected some of the ways that society has tried to mold her to its own view of the world. In doing so, she creates for herself a simple life in which her happiness or contentment is judged by her own values. The price she pays for that life is exile from the kingdom and a need to break the law in order to survive. Ryland is the very opposite. An enigmatic character, driven by greed and prepared to ignore his moral compass in the hunt for the bigger buck. As happens to all of us at some points in our own lives, Make It Out Alive throws these two very different characters together and examines how they cope in testing times and alongside a companion who is so very different from them.
The book will appeal to fans of romance novels who also like their stories to be a little bit out there. With Emma’s latest release, you’ll find yourself engulfed in dilemmas of the heart while simultaneously having your heart in your mouth as the daring duo battle to find salvation from everything the forest throws at them.
But beneath the surface, you’ll be asked to question what each is motivated by on their quest and where the fine line between trust and self-preservation lies.

Help for Sensory Challenges

 






Parents become exhausted trying to help their kids who are sensory challenged! 
My years of clinical practice and research with families and children has proven that you have to work with perception and the body in order to help a child regulate. 

This book is filled with body-based simple games, like 'Cow against a Tree,' 'Focus-Relax,' or 'Come close, move back, hug.' Each series of games works with the body; special senses of the face and head, the building blocks of proprioception, tactile games, vestibular and spatial awareness, and movement action games. You will get the "why?" of the game, and the "how to play." 

Enjoy the benefits! No more melt downs, a child who can focus without sensory distractions, and more ease in parenting! Teens can use this book as well.  


Here's a few of the game titles from the Proprioception and Tactile Games Section
Cow Against a Tree 
Tight as a Rock, Loose as Water................................
Squishy Bug .............................................................
Curl Like a Snail, Grow Like a Tree.............................. 
Skin Play: Pat, Brush, Squeeze, and Rub......................
Skin Brushing .............................................................
Bone Lever Game ........................................................
Steering Wheel Toes....................................................
Windshield Wipers ...................................................... 
Inchworm...................................................................

Parenting is a hard enough job as it is, and sensory challenges can make it a nightmare. Spread the word so parents and kids can have more fun.

From fishing trips spent together, to years as friends, to their relationship as husband and wife, Bob was the man Brenda wanted to always be by her side.

Even with their trust and reliance on God, Bob’s positivity waned, and he was left feeling hopeless, or just beneath hope.










Never Going Home

 



Never Going Home by Jeff Marlowe


Din Swift lives a life of quiet desperation. A mundane job, an abysmal wage, and a one-way road to nowhere permeating his everyday life. All this leaves him and his even more infuriated best friend, Chris, wondering how and why they came to find themselves in this world of an increasingly disposable workforce. A time far different from the “American Dream” they were brought up to know, and a vision that older generations have enjoyed considerably more. They dare to question all this and more. 

What Din is not so inclined to share is that he has already quit his job, yet does not have the nerve to tell anyone. Be it a newfound courage or a crazed second wind, Din decides to fix everything by finding a new job and thereby hoist himself out of this rut. In painful and even comical fashion, Din discovers the process of interviewing to be a full-time job in and of itself, and soon realizes why he was so reluctant to resign to begin with. It takes an agonizing twist of fate to reevaluate everything about himself, as well as everyone around him.

Follow his journey as he navigates catastrophic romances, the testing of friendships, and ultimately comes to question if the modern America he lives in, both economically and culturally, may really be within an irreversible era of decline.

Once Upon A Time Bitches

 



Hi, I’m Branden. That is me on the cover. Yes, I have a boy’s name, a Mom bod, and the tattoos are not photoshopped. Once upon a time I realized we all have a story, we all have a struggle and happiness is relative.
I am not cynical or hardened, I am just stating the facts. Here’s the deal:

Prince Charming doesn’t exist. 
Fairy Godmother is drunk.
Glass slippers don’t come 2 day prime shipping from Amazon.  

There is no magic fairytale, but if YOU work at it enough you can come pretty close creating your version with a happy ending. The best part is, in life you can continue to make edits until that sh*t reads exactly how you want it to.  
You may not agree with everything I say in this book but the most important takeaway is that YOU have to be your own f*cking hero. No more damsel locked in a tower, bullsh*t. 

That ends now. Join me as I take you through my 7 Magical Maxims for creating a fairytale life. (I know what you are thinking: Branden, no one gets a fairytale life.) Can you stop being so damn cynical for two seconds and just go with this? Good. Here they are: 

#1 Realize that no one is coming to save you. You have to save yourself.
#2: Accept total responsibility for every damn aspect of your life.
#3: Stop comparing yourself to others and just f*cking be you.
#4: Dream dreams that are so big they make people doubt you.
#5: Your life is the sum of your choices.Choose well.
#6: Eliminate everything evil and negative from your kingdom.
#7: Love yourself so hard you have an abundance to share with others.

Is it possible to design a fairytale life? Control your destiny? Be the hero in your story? I believe you can and that’s why I wrote this book. I am going to make you a little uncomfortable. Back out now if you aren't ready. 

Sh*t is about to get real bitches…

Gabe Blake is there waiting for her…and so is someone considerably less friendly. By the time Kate navigates her way home, everything will have changed for her—what she feels, what she wants, and what she’ll risk to be with the man she loves.
