Love Stories

 



Love Stories by Katherine Villyard

"What is love? What can love drive us to do?

In these stories, love pushes us to revenge, to reach beyond the boundaries of life and death. To rescue a family member. To fight the good fight without even knowing it, or to risk everyone and everything to save someone who may or may not be worthy. To make the wrong decisions and walk into hell. To transcend who we are.

Love can make us both the best and worst versions of ourselves."

The Big Black Book of Sex Positions - Valentines Day is Coming

 



Take Your Sex Life From Boring To Mind-Blowing in a Few More Than 69 Moves



IN THE BEGINNING THERE WAS SEX, BASIC AND PRIMAL IN ITS EARLY STAGES, OR SO WE THINK. . . . Perhaps modern society is simply unaware of the depth of sexual understanding our ancestors truly possessed. Maybe modern society is actually relearning the sexual secrets that have been lost over the years. We can look back to the Kama Sutra and see that thousands of years ago, the various sexual positions were given extreme importance. There are even ancient texts that suggest certain positions and angles of penetration can improve your health and even fight disease—more than just physical pleasure. However, intense physical pleasure is an excellent place to start.

A FOREST OF GIANT OAKS Volume 1: INDEPENDENCE

    


A FOREST OF GIANT OAKS

Volume 1: INDEPENDENCE




The Declaration of Independence Was Written in 2011, Not 1776.


17-year-old Christopher “Topher” White’s days of living off the grid in Philadelphia end when the sale of credit card data he hacked goes bad. He survives a gunshot wound and exposes his existence to a cryptic collective called the Regents. They have documentation of Topher’s past, so to get them back, he negotiates to get his GED and to work as a janitor at Independence Hall. Topher’s life changes the night five men stumble out of the bell tower. He believes them to be drunk actors, but later figures out they’re the Committee of Five who traveled in time from 1776 to 2011. Topher connects with Benjamin Franklin and influences edits to the Declaration of Independence. Meanwhile, Giovanni Rosso, Wall Street billionaire and leader of a ruthless cabal, becomes aware of Franklin’s presence and steals the Regents’ device for time travel. Topher must help get the Founders get back to 1776 in time to deliver the Declaration of Independence, or put both the fate of America and his quest for personal independence at risk.


Author Bio: J.M. RASINSKE (John Michael Rasinske) was raised in Franklin, Wisconsin and graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. He lives in Hillsborough (H-Vegas), North Carolina with his wife and teenage daughter while his three adult sons pursue their own independence. Outside of writing, he enjoys playing his Terry McInturff guitar, doing DDP Yoga, and spending time with family. This is his debut novel.


“J.M. Rasinske comes out of the gates at light speed with his debut novel, A Forest of Giant Oaks: Independence. With a page-turning plot intricately woven through multiple timelines, this novel meshes time travel and historical fiction in the best ways possible. Rasinske masterfully brings the Founding Fathers, headlined by the ardent, witty Benjamin Franklin, into the twenty-first century in such an engaging way, while maintaining the historical accuracy of these complex characters. As I finished the last page, I was left with one thought: I’m ready for Volume Two.”

- SCOTT BLACKBURN, author of It Dies With You

Leadership With A Purpose

 


 

Leadership With A Purpose:

Motivating Your Engineers


Effectively motivating, inspiring and leading engineering professionals is about putting people first.

Here's how you do it.

In today’s world, effectively motivating and managing highly intelligent technology professionals is challenging. Around the world, people are more educated, informed and highly social about their careers and employers, making retention and employee happiness a full-time job. In fact, companies are beginning to recognize these impacts and have begun employing more “PeopleOps” type human resources professionals to tackle this head-on.

The reality is that most engineers don't leave jobs, they leave managers. While having a swanky and modern human resources strategy helps keep the company on the cutting edge of benefits and overall happiness, it does not solve the root problem – having good managers that motivate engineering teams.

In the remote and global workforce that we all participate in, establishing a healthy work culture with safe boundaries is an ongoing task that cannot be forced. Add in the complexities of global cultural differences and political phenomena; it’s every leader’s nightmare to manage well.

This book will cover what makes an engineering culture, how to cultivate it, and how to build trust with your teams.
After reading this book, you can effectively motivate, inspire and lead engineering professionals of all levels that are happy and loyal to you.

With years of experience within the software engineering and technology sectors, Robert Murphy has become an expert in building healthy company cultures and motivating engineering professionals.

Once deemed "The King of Culture" by a previous employer, he is passionate about helping other technology leaders on their mission to build highly effective teams. In this debut book, Robert describes his proven methods and provides a roadmap to successful leadership with a purpose!
