Everyday I'm Shuffling





Everyday I’m Shuffling is an intriguing autobiography of a casino dealer, telling the ‘behind the scenes’ stories about gambling and life at the casino. If you have ever wanted to know what it is really like working in a casino in America, this is one of the best gambling books to read.

Gambling Stories


My goal when writing this was to try and detach you from the illusion that Hollywood portrays in its movies, and tell you real stories about gambling and working in a casino. I did this because I heard too many times over the years that people will never get it unless they were working in a casino. I have wanted to tell my stories about gambling and my life as a casino dealer for many years, and never thought I could, or that I would, until coronavirus hit. I had all the time in the world now. I could no longer say I did not have the time to accomplish this.

Working in a Casino


This book is filled with stories of what I have experienced, along with me breaking down player and dealer stereotypes I have learned as a casino dealer. I talk about the games I have dealt and how horrible management is. I hope this book and stories about gambling I tell with shock you and make you laugh.

Most importantly, I hope it inspires you to reach for the stars and do something that you think you could never do. By the end of it all, you will stink like smoke and your sanity will be gone! I hope you all enjoy my stories about gambling as much I enjoyed writing them!

Love My Colors



Love My Colors is a fictional autobiography that highlights the discrimination people of different skin color face in society. In an attempt to make a difference, Cleanne has written this book with the sole purpose of ending the difference between skin colors. Be it Black, Brown, Olive or White, no one is different, no one is superior.

Dedication
This book is dedicated to my mom, husband, family, and friends and to all single-parent families of different background, nationality, culture, social class and ethnicities.



This book is dedicated to young girls and boys broken by society’s perception of what beauty is supposed to look like. 


I encourage you to embrace the self for who you are, love yourself - it’s the greatest gift you can shower self. Think and dream big and always give back to your communities regardless of your upbringing or any harshness that you have encountered at the hands of people. 


Things always change as time goes by, it never remains the same, so God will give you the strength to carry through, but always persevere, and in the end, life will be worth it.
This book is for all those people – especially young girls who have been belittled and made fun of, just based on their skin color. Diversity is beautiful, and every skin-color matters – be it black, olive, brown or white. 



Natashia learns to be content in her own skin, with time and a few lessons on the way. Yes, she may be darker-skinned than her mother and the rest of the residents at the island. Yes, she may also be darker-skinned than her lighter-skinned father and rest of the kids at school… but she is her own person – whatever her skin-color.

My 13 Year Old Book Blogger

My son had just turned 13 and he came to me asking for money for a video game as is the normal procedure.  This time however after he asked he turned around and said, "You know it would be nice if I could make my own money and not have to ask you for money". Then I saw the pure brilliance of my son.  He said, "I could promote books like you do, only I will be better at it!.  I love his confidence.  So after several attempts by me to tell him all the difficulty and hours I spend helping authors, he was not swayed and asked me for help starting up.

We spent an entire weekend create and refining his book blog and strategies for helping authors.  When it came time to discuss the money, my son again surprised me and beat me to the punch.  He said, "You know Dad, I should some of all I earn back for my education, instead of blowing all this money."  At that point we switch to creating a business plan.  A business plan with my 13 year old son, it was beautiful.

His blog is now live and he is focusing on Children's Books and Young Adult Titles.  He still think the romance books are a little yucky.  I know that will change soon, and we didn't even talk about horror, science fiction or erotica for goodness sake.  His work ethic surprised me and I haven't seen him this focused since that last time I watched him play a video game.

My hope is that you can all go check out his blog and give some encouragement.  I am seeing great things from him and I think it would be awesome if he might be able to team up with some young authors that are starting their journey.  Below are the link to his blog and his Fiverr gig if you or any authors you know might want to help support his first business.

Chronicles of the High Inquest: Homeworld of the Heart


Chronicles of the High Inquest: 

Homeworld of the Heart: 

The Fifth Novel in the Inquestor Series


After forty years, S.P. Somtow has produced a fifth novel in the Chronicles of the High Inquest, one of the most lauded galactic empire epics of the 1980s.   Critically acclaimed yet never previously in print as a complete set, the series has passionate adherents — and they have finally persuaded the author to enrich the universe with more novels.  Homeworld of the Heart is the first of a trilogy within a trilogy.
The songs of Sajit were known and loved through the million worlds of the Dispersal of Man. He was the favorite of Elloran, most powerful, most compassionate of the godlike Inquestors — even, it was rumored, his lover. In his old age, Ton Elloran visits a backwater planet that purports to contain the tomb of Sajit. A nostalgic visit to his childhood companion birth planet, however, reveals that everything he thought he knew about his closest friend was wrong — and that there were at least two Sajits, their stories bifurcating and melding in an ever more complex skein of memory, desire, and loss.  Homeworld of the Heart begins in a small village in a backworld — where a microscopic glitch in Inquestral management has caused two contradictory games of majrúgh to be played out.  People bins are raining from the sky, a city is devouring another city, and a goddess must learn to become a whore as cultures and worlds clash.
The Inquestor Series is like Game of Thrones — but on a galactic scale.  For twenty centuries, the godlike Inquestors have ruled the million worlds of the Dispersal of Man, keeping all its disparate civilizations in precarious balance by playing the star-destroying game of makrúgh. 
Theodore Sturgeon said "Somtow deals with the greatest magnitude of concept since Stapledon … I deeply envy anyone who has not read the tale of the Inquestors, for they have before them this transcendent experience."
Orson Scott Card said of this series, "he can create a world with less apparent effort than some writers devote to creating a small room …" and in HOMEWORLD OF THE HEART Somtow revisits and vastly expands the teeming landscape of the Inquestor series.

Royals at War: The Untold Story of Harry and Meghan's Shocking Split with the House of Windsor



Royals at War: 

The Untold Story of Harry and Meghan's Shocking Split with the House of Windsor


Reveals Shocking Revelations about Prince Harry, Megan Markle, and the British Royal Family—and the Divisive Rifts Between Them

This explosive exposé, Royals at War, takes readers inside a riven Buckingham Palace to provide the definitive account of the unfolding abdication crisis of 2020—dubbed Megxit—during which the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, became royal outcasts.

Through revealing interviews with royal family insiders, friends, aides, historians, royal watchers, and others with intimate knowledge of The House of Windsor, this tell-all book looks back at the events, motives and crises which led to Harry (sixth in line to the throne) dramatically abandoning his birthright—in a move not seen for nearly a century, when King Edward VIII also gave up the crown for the woman he loved as Europe teetered on the brink of fascism and war. Like Edward and Wallis Simpson, the catalyst for the scandal here is also an ambitious, controversial American woman.

Dylan Howard, bestselling author of Diana: Case Solved and Epstein: Dead Men Tell No Tales, charts how Meghan’s relationship with Harry was viewed as controversial from the start—and how her brief honeymoon with the British public began to sour shortly after she and Harry announced in November 2018 that they would be leaving Kensington Palace to move to Frogmore Cottage, an hour outside London. As senior royals expressed disapproval, the public at first seemed to enjoy the royal spat, with many still supporting Team Meghan—until it emerged that the bill to renovate Frogmore Cottage to Meghan’s lavish expectations would be $3 million . . . and be picked up by British taxpayers.

Finally, in a move nobody saw coming, Harry announced he was turning his back on the role he had been groomed for since birth—giving up his HRH title, repaying the renovation costs of Frogmore Cottage, abandoning his royal duties, and leaving Britain for good. Buckingham Palace reeled.

Howard’s unique access and insight into this constitutional crisis will not only address the tensions and tantrums behind closed palace doors, but seek to answer the questions many are still asking:

  • Has Prince Harry ever really recovered from the death of his mother Diana—and the resentment he feels against the institution that tried to destroy her?
  • Why did Meghan, once hailed as a breath of fresh air, rile up the monarchy?
  • Why did she refuse to conform to royal conventions in the way that Catherine did before her?
  • Did the public and media criticism of Meghan go too far? And just how valid are the accusations of racism?
  • How did these modern royals treat the tabloids differently to tradition? And did it backfire?
  • What next for Harry and Meghan? And how will they—and the institution they’ve turned their back on—react to their new lives outside the confines of the Palace and free from the strict codes and conventions that bind all members of the Royal Family?
Caught in a trap by virtue of a life entombed in a gilded cage, Royals at War answers these questions and more . . . and reveals how Harry’s infatuation with Meghan and desire to modernize the monarchy could yet end in disaster for the House of Windsor. Played out against the cataclysm of the British tabloid's laser focus on the duchess’ every movement—for good or ill—this is the true story of Harry and Meghan’s split from the Establishment . . . and perhaps just the beginning of a whole new Monarchy, redefined for the modern age.

The Trip to Redden Lake




Allison Fellman dreams of rabbits. Not the cuddly kind—the kind that kill. Her nightmares reveal fragments of a childhood memory which took place on the family farm. She remembers her parents were arguing; she ran outside into the darkness and there they were—watching her—laughing at her. Rabbits. Or were they men? Or demons? And to make matters worse, her dad went missing shortly after. Is there a connection?  


To put together the broken pieces of her past, she travels to the location where her dad was last seen, a scenic vacation spot called “Redden Lake.” A gambler and ruthless thug, few people of the isolated town have anything nice to say about him. Undaunted, she keeps asking around but only manages to get the attention of a masked man, who despite his odd appearance, is popular among the other cabin owners. 



A member of a mysterious underground club of people who wear animal masks, the intriguing stranger distracts her from the search for the truth as they explore his secret world, a world her dad once occupied. After a mutilated body is found in the forest, the masked man reveals his true violent nature and a need for revenge for his own troubled past. Will she be held to blame for her father’s misdeeds? 



Darkly humorous, unnerving, and tragic—The Trip to Redden Lake is an ominous tale that pushes the boundary between reality and self-deception.
