The Flying Scotsman Sings - book review Two lovers who share a passion for music, but with differing schedules, travelling and careers - will their love survive? It has been quite a while since I have written a book review article. There was a time when I was paid to write reviews and was assigned 300-600 books per year to analyze and review - sometimes write articles, sometimes writing blurbs, sometimes giving reader feedback. Back then I was reading so much that I ended up burning out after 5-6 years. I took a very long break, did a few reviews and took a very long break again. I no longer accept book review queries, however I'm happy to share this book review with our readers today... Upon first impression I had a strong feeling that I was about to delve into a fantastic read. As a writer, I was impressed at the enviable writing skills displayed in the first two pages where the author eloquently set the scene, described the era and introduced the main character. Here, the autho...

World of Writing - Author Interview Michael was born in the Kimberly Mountains of Western Australia, who is quickly gaining a reputation for his ability to intertwine complex theology, ancient wisdom and spiritual quest in his work.  " Weaned on mum and dad's stories of remote Aboriginal communities, patrolling Papua New Guinea, granddads butcher shop, Catholics and Druids and those that didn’t come home from war. Then the rollercoaster of my own youthful adventures, trekking and sometimes working around the world. I’ve lived in dozens of places, from one-pub villages to mega-cities, until finally settling in Brisbane ", he explains.  Michael invites our readers to follow his Author Central Page on Amazon.  Find the Evolution of Everything book @: https://www.amazon.com/ Evolution-Everything-Michael- Wren-ebook/dp/B0BNY286FS   Q: I'm very curious to learn more about where you are from...

A huge hug goes out to " ForeverJZ " who posted a review for our cookbook,  From One Small Garden - Over 300 Delicious, Nutritious Recipes .    4.0 out of 5 stars  The review titled Create Tasty Food Using Simple Ingredients  was posted on  Amazon.ca  just recently ( October 14, 2023 ) " I enjoyed the simplicity of the recipes resulting in very tasty and nutritious dishes. You don't really need to be a gardener (I'm not) to make good use of this cook book as there is always a selection of recipes that work with what I have in my fridge and cupboards.  The recipes offer suggestions for variations, which accommodates individual taste preferences. The internet has made finding recipes easy, so I stopped using many of my cookbooks. From One Small Garden is a cook book I will continue to enjoy using. " *** Thank you so much for sharing this review of our cookbook on  Amazon.ca  ForeverJZ  - We really do appreciate it :)  ...

" The idea that there is a trade-off  between growth and going green  is pernicious and false.  Experience demonstrates time and time again  that greater wealth creation  and a better quality of life for all  go hand in hand.
