See Bride Run!: (Romantic Comedy) by Charlotte Hughes 

Atlanta’s billionaire heiress Annie Hartford has been under her father’s thumb her entire life. At 29, he is now forcing her to marry a man she doesn’t love in front of 600 guests. With only moments to spare, she hijacks the family limo, which breaks down in small town Pinckney, Georgia.

There she meets small town lawyer and restaurant owner Sam Ballard. Unlucky in love, the last thing Sam needs is a red-hot waitress who seems hell-bent on breaking every dish in his Dixieland Café. Still, he can’t very well fire her; she has already won the hearts of everyone in town.

3 Tips to Teach Your child How to Read

By: ChildrenLearningReading.com

Learning to read at a young age is important for the development of the child. It helps them develop a better understand of their surroundings, allows them to gather information from printed materials, and provides them with a wonderful source of entertainment when they read stories and rhymes. Children develop at different rates, and some children will develop reading skills quicker than other children; however, what's important is that as the parent, you are keenly aware of your child's maturity and reading level to provide them with appropriate books and activities to help them improve.

As parents, you are the most important teacher for your children. You will introduce your child to books and reading. Below we have some tips to help you teach your child to read.

Teach Your Child How to Read Tip #1

Teach your child alphabet letters and sounds at the same time. Studies have shown that children learn best when they are taught the letter names and letter sounds at the same time. In one study, 58 preschool children were randomly assigned to receive instructions in letter names and sounds, letter sound only, or numbers (control group). The results of this study are consistent with past research results in that it found children receiving letter name and sound instruction were most likely to learn the sounds of letters whose names included cues to their sounds. [1]

When teaching your child the letter sounds, have them slowly trace the letter, while saying the sound of the letter at the same time. For example, if you were teaching your child the letter "A", you would say:

"The letter A makes the /A/ (ah) sound."

Then have your child say the /A/ sound while tracing the letter with his or her index finger.

Teaching a Child How to Read Tip #2

When teaching your child to read, always emphasize with them that the proper reading order should be from left to right, and top to bottom. To adults, this may seem so basic that anyone should know it. However, our children are not born with the knowledge that printed text should be read from left to right and top to bottom, and this is why you'll sometimes see children reading from right to left instead - because they were never explicitly taught to read from left to right. When teaching your child how to read, always emphasize this point with them.

Teach Your Child How to Read Tip #3

Teach final consonant blends first. Teaching words such "at" and "and" can lead your child directly to learning words that rhyme with these. For example, for "at", you can have:

Lat
Pat
Mat
Cat
Sat
Bat
Spat
Chat

For "and", you can have these rhyming words:

Sand
Band
Land
Hand
Stand
Bland
Brand
Grand
and so on...

You can start teaching blends once your child has learned the sounds of some consonants and short vowel sounds. You don't need to wait until your child has mastered the sounds of all the letters before teaching blends.

Learning to read is a long process, but it doesn't have to be a difficult process. Broken down into intuitive and logical steps, a child as young as two years old can learn to read, and older children can accomplish even more.

The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work: A Practical Guide from the Country's Foremost Relationship Expert

Just as Masters and Johnson were pioneers in the study of human sexuality, so Dr. John Gottman has revolutionized the study of marriage. As a professor of psychology at the University of Washington and the founder and director of the Seattle Marital and Family Institute, he has studied the habits of married couples in unprecedented detail over the course of many years. His findings, and his heavily attended workshops, have already turned around thousands of faltering marriages.
       

This book is the culmination of his life's work: the seven principles that guide couples on the path toward a harmonious and long-lasting relationship. Straightforward in their approach, yet profound in their effect, these principles teach partners new and startling strategies for making their marriage work. Gottman helps couples focus on each other, on paying attention to the small day-to-day moments that, strung together, make up the heart and soul of any relationship. Being thoughtful about ordinary matters provides spouses with a solid foundation for resolving conflict when it does occur and finding strategies for living with those issues that cannot be resolved.
       
Packed with questionnaires and exercises whose effectiveness has been proven in Dr. Gottman's workshops, The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work is the definitive guide for anyone who wants their relationship to attain its highest potential.

The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work is the result of Dr. John Gottman's many years of closely observing thousands of marriages. This kind of longitudinal research has never been done before. Based on his findings, he has culled seven principles essential to the success of any marriage.
Maintain a love map.
Foster fondness and admiration.
Turn toward instead of away.
Accept influence.
Solve solvable conflicts.
Cope with conflicts you can't resolve.
Create shared meaning.

Dr. Gottman's unique questionnaires and exercises will guide couples on the road to revitalizing their marriage, or making a strong one even better.

Jeff Bezos - The New Indie Author looking for readers just like any ordinary indie author

Whatever he is up to, we all know it is going to affect the way books are written or read!

In an experiment dubbed “The ordinary indie”, Jeff Bezos the Amazon guru has published a book as a completely new Indie Author, perhaps to see the world through their eyes.

Many indie authors cannot afford to pay for a professional editor, advertising and marketing to get their books far and wide in a short space of time...  

...And this is what the multi-billionaire has done: instead of taking advantage of his billions and of course his platform as the founder of Kindle Direct Publishing, CEO Jeff Bezos has written and published two books in a series that give a limelight to readers of books. He basically showcases reader reviews on random bestselling books on amazon.

And what does this have to do with authors, bloggers and business owners? Everything!

The books are really "no big deal'' type of books in every way. The book covers are self-made, there are no pre-release reviews, there are no big names endorsing the books. Literary, the books look nothing more than what a stay-at-home mom or dad, or a less than $25 000.00 per year person can produce, with minimal help. 

What is he up to? Nobody really knows, except that he is cooking something and it will probably change the Kindle Direct Publishing world for the good or worse for some indie authors who have been complaining about the publishing wing being too harsh in dealing with them.

As of this day (August 6, 2015), the CEO has published two books in the series:

1. A. J. Banner: The Good Neighbor (Readers Spotlight Series Book one)

2. Paula Hawkins': The Girl on the Train: A Novel (Readers Spotlight Series Book Two)

A few “clever” authors, bloggers and business owners are taking advantage of this venture and have started changing the pen names they use as reviewers on amazon to their author name(s), book titles, blog titles and business names, in an attempt that should their review be picked for publication, their business is automatically marketed for free!

When a review is picked, it features the reviewers name as seen on the amazon product reviews. Readers who purchase the book on amazon and a few other retailers will obviously have that information at hand. 

The biggest surprise has been that the books are also available at some of the retailers competitors; Barns and Nobel, ibooks, Kobo and a few others. They are not in Kindle Unlimited!
