Virtual Book Tour: Birthright by Nick Giannaras #interview and #giveaway



Historical Fiction
Date Published: June 27, 2017
 Publisher: Yo Productions, LLC

As an infant, Niklas’s family escaped death when the entire royal bloodline of Livonia was murdered. As an adult, Niklas joined the Teutonic Knights in their bloody crusades across Europe to spread God’s Word. After years of service, he discovers that the army he faithfully served has ill-intentioned motives.
When Niklas and his friend defect from the knighthood, they are relentlessly pursued across the Baltic States by the wickedly led Teutonic Order. His only hope to enjoy a peaceful life is to unify the oppressed populace against their tyrannical rulers. But, political upheavals and looming enemies threaten any chance of peace. When it’s discovered that an heir to the Livonian throne is still alive, Niklas vows to help him regain his rightful place as leader. At best, Niklas’s oath can help bring freedom to people in a lost country. At worst, it can cost him his life.

Interview

What is the hardest part of writing your books?

-Writing uninterrupted. With three kids it tends to be chaotic at times, and even worse when our house becomes the mecca center for their friends. Oh, what fun (insert sarcasm). Then again, it is nice to know they like hanging at our home.


What songs are most played on your Ipod?

-When at home, I play music mixes through my computer as ambiance while I write. It is a very nice set up for producing music, so the sound quality is great. The songs played are dependent on what I am writing about. For example, epic, cinematic, LOTR, medieval type stuff for historical-fiction/fantasy, civil war era music for civil war books.

Do you have critique partners or beta readers?

-I have used a few people in the past, folks I’ve graduated with, but not in the last several books.

What book are you reading now?

-Daughter of Prophecy by Miles Owens

How did you start your writing career?

-It began with writing and drawing my first book in elementary school, perhaps ten pages. In middle school I worked on my ‘biggest’ project at that time and got up to fifty-seven pages. My writing truly commenced in 2003 when my secretary walked into my office with a serious look on her face, stopped in front of my desk, and looked right at me. I thought I did something wrong. She said, “God told me to tell you there are untapped talents within you. Use them.” Literally, a fire stirred in my belly. Three days later I started writing and I haven’t stopped since.

Tell us about your next release.


-My next release is titled Rebellion, book 2 in the Obsidian Cross Series due out in November 2017, and I just finished writing book 3 of the trilogy, Justice.

Virtual Book Tour: Beyond ADHD by @IAmJeffEmmerson #review #giveaway


Non-fiction - Mental Health
Date Published: August 16, 2017
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield

 photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png


Beyond ADHD weaves Emmerson’s personal story of his ADHD diagnosis, exploring along the way the latest medical, scientific and societal explanations and tools for managing and living with the condition. Including interviews with a number of experts at the forefront of next-generation ADHD diagnostics and treatment, he questions the cookie-cutter way ADHD is commonly diagnosed and treated. Suggesting that the list of symptoms often used to identify ADHD can be attributed to many other disorders and conditions, he explores how and why ADHD diagnoses have increased by 50% in the last ten years.

Emmerson advocates a different approach to ADHD, arguing that it should be a diagnosis of exclusion rather than the other way around, and that we must look past the label, recognizing that individual symptoms vary and treatment plans should be better tailored to the individual. He examines mental and behavioral issues from all sides, including the possibility that nurturing – rather than trying to alter or suppress – the active, “360-degree” mind is a viable way for those diagnosed with ADHD to realize their gifts and lead purposeful lives.


About the Authors


AUTHOR BIO: Jeff Emmerson

From the depths of mental despair to one of social media’s premier spokespeople for mental health issues, Jeff Emmerson is a veritable “Rocky” in the field. Jeff has written for and been interviewed by some of the world’s top online magazines regarding Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), including Everyday Health (featured on AOL Health) and Additudemag. He also enjoys one of the world’s largest social media followings for a non-medical professional on the subject, with more than half a million Twitter followers and a video blog (YouTube Channel) that includes more than 200 different postings on various aspects of ADHD. Many of the top medical experts in the field, as well as specialists in behavioral therapy, vision therapy and neuroscience, regularly post and correspond with him as part of their collective goal: finding a path beyond today’s ADHD “epidemic”. Some share their perspectives in Beyond ADHD.

Born and raised in Ontario, Canada, Emmerson began speaking publicly to raise awareness of ADHD and mental health issues in 2011, following a suicide attempt and resulting ADHD diagnosis. (Three years earlier, he had lost his brother Ryan to suicide). In 2013, after another bout of suicidal ideation, he focused more greatly on his higher purpose, took to social media channels and began blogging to reach an even larger audience. He also took out an old manuscript he had written about his life, which further developed into Beyond ADHD.

Emmerson is a passionate advocate for mental health, and fostering a deeper understanding beyond the accepted symptoms that have led to more than 30 million North Americans taking ADHD medication. He seeks to come up with solutions that return society to a place of compassion, humanity, community and empathy. This perspective forms the structure of Beyond ADHD.
Emmerson will be embarking on a public speaking and signing tour in Fall 2017 to draw greater awareness to the diagnostic and societal issues of ADHD, to create greater public discourse in North America and worldwide, and to roll out the many forward-thinking solutions that he and many of the world’s foremost experts on behavioral, mental health and neurological issues and conditions have been discussing and beginning to utilize.

Jeff and his wife, Aimee, Founder & CEO of a globally recognized digital marketing firm, make their home in Ontario, Canada. He was a star youth hockey player in Canada for many years, and later, worked as a security guard and in various positions. 
His website can be found at www.JeffEmmerson.com.


Review

This is a subject that really interests me because of how often you hear the word and diagnosis. 

Going into this one, I wasn't 100% sure this novel was going to apply to me in its entirety. While that was the case, there was definitely plenty I fell like I got from reading this novel.

I could still appreciate the Author's collective authority and knowledge of the subject. It was very interesting to read about and I think things from this novel could help people dealing with certain struggles in their life.

Review

I'm a huge sci-fi fan and this novel really strikes a solid note in the genre.

The plot is full of exciting twists along the way and quite easy to follow.

The world that Christopher Cobb has created is vivid and fun to become absorbed in. 

I really enjoyed the way that it unfolded. It didn't feel forced and that can be said for the flow and pacing of the story as well. Cobb is a very talented writer. 

About the Author

Interview

What is the hardest part of writing your books?

I find writing really enjoyable, but the editing process can be far less rewarding. It’s something that has to be done. Readers demand a quality product. 

What songs are most played on your Ipod?

I have an eclectic taste in music from the Rolling Stones to Harry Styles. I always listen to music when I’m writing.


Do you have critique partners or beta readers?

My wife is always the first person to read my books and provides honest feedback. I then rely on my literary agent to point out what needs to change. He was editor of the year in the UK, and so I’m very fortunate.


What book are you reading now?

I’m re-reading Castaway by Lucy Irvine. Recommended.


How did you start your writing career?

I wrote articles for newspapers and magazines during my career in child protection, but White is the Coldest Colour was my first novel. I’d had to leave work due to health issues, and so I had a lot of time on my hands. That led to a new career as an author.

Winner – Indie Genius Award from Dragon Tree Books
Winner – Literary Titan Book Award (Gold) June 2017

Interview

What is the hardest part of writing your books?
For me, the toughest part is deciding which parts to keep and what to toss/trim. Sometimes scenes that I think are important end up being discarded because the story evolved in a different direction, or certain portions get scrapped because they seemed to work in outlining/planning, but didn’t work when written out. I also don’t always write in a sequential fashion, so it can get tricky connecting parts and maintaining an appropriate pace. But it’s all part of the fun!


What songs are most played on your Ipod?
It changes often, but currently, there’s a lot of Bear’s Den, Starset, The Lumineers, Stars, Ruth B, Birdy, Cherry Ghost, Fitz and the Tantrums, and a few movie/video game soundtracks, like Final Fantasy and Game of Thrones.


Do you have critique partners or beta readers?
I don’t have anyone official, but I’d love to find some. I’ve gotten feedback on previous works through workshopping and using friends as a soundboard for ideas, but I’d like to reach out to other authors/readers in the same genre to expand my network a bit.


What book are you reading now?
I’m currently reading The Daughter of the Night by Laekan Zea Kemp, and next on the shelf is The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry by Gabrielle Zevin.


How did you start your writing career?
I’ve always loved writing; I dabbled in fanfiction during my teenage years, then expanded to original content in college. While browsing the internet a couple of years ago, I stumbled across a contest held by Dragon Tree Books that featured a publishing package, so I entered an early draft of I’m With You and ended up winning. I hope to only grow from here!



Tell us about your next release.
I’m experimenting with a possible companion novel to I’m With You, featuring stories told through the POV of the supporting and minor characters. Other than that, I’ve got a YA fantasy series in the works, and many more stories I want to tell!

Working hard to graduate at the top of her class and becoming the best FBI agent had finally paid off for Agent Gabrielle Jackson. Selected to head one of the most important operations of her career, the unexpected happens when Jagged Edge Security is brought in to assist.

About the Author


My love for writing began several years ago after an early retirement from a demanding job that I loved, but also hated because it consumed so much of my time. Now, I am able to focus my time on what I love. Writing romance has been a life long dream and to actually say that I am a published author is beyond what I would have ever expected.

Even though some may say I have a little naughtiness in my books, I look at it as an added bonus for my readers. After all what is a romance book without a little spice.

When I am not writing, I enjoy spending time with friends either at home or out on the town. Mostly, I enjoy a relaxing night at home where I can enjoy a glass of wine in the company of a good book.

Virtual Book Tour - The Nostradamus Code by @toontemple #review #yascifi



YA Sci-Fi Thriller
Published: July 19, 2017
Publisher: Double Dragon Publishing

 photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png

On a settlement planet far into the future the worldwide economic crash has turned New Stockton into a city broken by political corruption and pervasive organized crime. Scotland Murrow’s journalist father has gone missing while investigating a twelve year old murder case. The victim was found with an encrypted file, known as the Nostradamus Code, imbedded in his thumbnail leading Scotland to believe that the file contains the secret to his father’s fate. Aided by his reformed junkie friend and a journalist who may have her own secret agenda Scotland scours the city’s seedy underbelly, traverses the unchartered outlands and breaches a fortified Citadel as he peels away layer upon layer of the Nostradamus Code to confront his biggest fears and uncover a plot to bring down the most powerful man on the planet.


Review
The first thing that I look for when reading a new author and learning about the world they created is for them to be able to make the world come to life for me. This is something that Patrick T. Hickey really managed to do with The Nostradamus Code. He manages to give great imagery and descriptions to bring the novel to life for his reader.

I think that the plot and pacing were also very well done. I enjoyed the characters and the flow of the novel. Nothing felt forced and I was fond of the twists and surprises that helped the novel not be predictable. 

About the Author

He contributes editorial and single panel cartoons to various newspapers and magazines all over the world and has graphic stories published in independent anthologies such as Slambang, The Shiznit and Don’t Touch Me.

Virtual Book Tour: The Faberge Entanglement by @tymslyder



Suspense/Action/Romance
Date Published: July 13, 2015

 photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png

Sabinne ‘Saber’ Darrieux’s father, the billionaire CEO of Frontenac Global Security has been kidnapped. His ransom is not cash in a numbered offshore account, or a briefcase of Bearer Bonds but something utterly unique, incredibly valuable, and until recently, hidden away from the world.

The kidnapper seems to know Saber very well, and knows that the next day, through her work as an elite translator she will be in the same location as the Object. She must steal the Object and deliver it to the kidnapper to ransom her father.

Adrian Steele, a British Intelligence agent has just come off of two harrowing missions. Upon returning to London for a well-earned rest, he learns that his friend and fellow agent, has been murdered in Moscow, but not before he made use of a unique Object as a mobile ‘drop site’ for the valuable intelligence he was carrying.

The drop site is traveling from Moscow to England. Steele insists on completing the mission to honor the death of his friend, Gerry Cornell.

At an ultra-chic quasi-diplomatic gathering in a mansion in Windsor, England, Saber and Steele meet and find themselves faced with a powerful, undeniable attraction. But at the moment, this compelling attraction is very inconvenient.

In reality they are at the mansion to check out the security arrangements — for their own reasons — to steal the Object, a FabergĂ© egg worth thirty million dollars. But who will get to the egg first?
Fabergé eggs are very famous for their unique surprises. Saber and Steele are about to be very surprised, indeed.

And when Saber clashes with Steele; more than sparks will explode!


Review

A fantastic Romantic Suspense. The Authors have done a great job of providing the reader with a balance between the Mystery and Suspense and the Romantic Element / Action. 

The characters are well developed and read like real people. 

A Smooth moving plot with a mystery that kept me flipping pages to the very end. This one is a definite page turner.

Review


I truly enjoyed this book, I couldn't put it down. Everything from great characters who felt real to the setting and pacing. 


The thing I was most happy with this time was the fact that the story seemed to really flow smoothly.
Humor along with mystery and intrigue really make for a wonderfully written and fun to read novel!


I was kept on my toes to the very end. I was invested in both the story as a whole as well as each and every character. There were surprises along the way that had me gasping out loud.

This is a novel that will leave you wanting more from the author.


About the Author


C. T. Collier was born to solve logic puzzles, wear tweed, and drink Earl Grey tea. Her professional experience in cutthroat high tech and backstabbing higher education gave her endless opportunity to study intrigue. Add to that her longtime love of mysteries, and it’s no wonder she writes academic mysteries that draw inspiration from traditional whodunits. Her setting is entirely fictional: Tompkins College is no college and every college, and Tompkins Falls is a blend of several Finger Lakes towns, including her hometown, Seneca Falls, NY (AKA Bedford Falls from It’s a Wonderful Life).
