A note from the author; Hey, I'm Venus Whitehurst . My favorite color is blue and my favorite flowers are blue Tiger lilies, and Black Roses. My favorite mythical creatures are Mermaids (and Sirens), Gargoyles, Unicorns and yes Fairies! Now that I'm retired from the Army, I'm all about writing and enjoying life. When I'm not busy writing, I'm usually reading fantasy romance novels or doing arts and crafts like crocheting and painting. I'm also really into gaming, especially Dungeons and Dragons and Skyrim. I really love hanging out with my husband Skylar and our pets Caramel, Sasha, and Mr. Cat. It is the best part of my day—we love going on hikes and just chilling together. Lately, I've been diving into Korean culture and language, and it's been a fascinating journey. Come along for the ride as I explore creativity and have fun!

Arnie's Story.
The Arnie card (on the back of the cover) was distributed to over 28,000 children and adults. This card was a way for students to ask for help.

Nervously speaking on the panel at the Logan Book Festival!

This appearance was about showcasing Limelight Publishing, as an extension of myself as an author. It was exciting to explain what I do and how passionate I am about helping others. I am told that when I spoke, the room suddenly went quiet. I initially wondered if it was good or bad, but afterward, so many approached me with praise and shared their stories, passions, and business models.

One aspect, I am passionate about is being partnered with Today was a chance to open up some Australian eyes to how limiting some approaches can be. I was able to direct many to explore Lulu opens as publishers and writers.

THANK YOU for in particular, Rhiannon D. Elton, the
Arts Champion at the Logan Chamber of Commerce. Without her organization and enthusiasm, today would not be possible.
To my son Tyler and mother Avril for coming along to help out.
To all the incredible writers who took the time to chat with me. You inspire me in so many ways. I continue to learn from you and love following your journies.
And to - I always tell you that I wouldn't be where I am today without you. I would be somewhere, maybe doing something else fulfilling. But I can't imagine it. THIS is where I'm meant to be and YOU play a vital and large part in it. I will always promote you, praise you, and work alongside you with passion and pride.

Established artist, Harlow, lives alone in a spacious Manhattan apartment. She is content making her art and enjoying the peace and quiet. Her world is perfect, just as she designed it. At least, that's what she tells herself. Harlow soon realizes that she has a lingering feeling that she can't seem to shake, a deep desire to feel something that the ordinary world has not given her. She doesn't quite know what it is or how to fulfill it, and while she pretends to be happy, her search for the feeling leads her down a dangerous path of self-harm. Xavier, a confident, handsome stranger, enters her world and sees something in Harlow that she cannot see in herself. But his intentions are not what she assumes. Xavier has a tragic past and seeks revenge, but he cannot do it alone. He needs someone susceptible, ready to bend to his needs to fulfill his plan, and willing to draw blood. Harlow, in her vulnerable state, is the perfect ally, even if she isn't aware of what he is leading her toward. Harlow's journey is chaotic and heartbreaking, but ultimately, it is necessary to find healing, even if it is in the most unlikely of places.

Trafalgar 200 Through The Lens, by Des Kilfeather is a historic and unique, photographic record of Queen Elizabeth II, Navy Ships, Admirals, and Sailors from around the world during the 2005 Trafaglar 200 celebration. Second Edition during the, 70th year, Platinum Jubilee Anniversary of Queen Elizabeth’s Accession, with Des Kilfeather’s slight, philosophic, artistic, contemporary contextualisations.
History, Today and The Future:

Author, Des Kilfeather, his philosophical aesthetic artist’s vocation started in later life with photography evolving towards fine art painting, printing and other physical media. Today going through an NFT evolution revolution. Des is totally inspired by philosophical thinking about life. With works in collections world-wide, including for example, the London National Portrait Gallery, the Writers Museum-James Joyce Museum Dublin, University at Buffalo New York Poetry Collection, Buckingham Palace Royal Collection, Embassy of Ireland London and other galleries and museums: a recurrent theme in Des Kilfeather's art is the philosophical exploration of ethics, greed, power, ambition, jealousy, apathy, physics and time; through the digital evolution of physical artworks. Counterbalanced with poetic narratives of love, optimism and humour Des seeks to comment on that elusive human trait which overules ethical conscience.

In later life Des Kilfeather studied photography and fine art programmes with three Universities and over time, following the Trafalgar 200 2005 event, was awarded a Meritorious Masters Degree in Fine Art.

Teaching is one of the most challenging, important, and rewarding professions in the world. Countless numbers of teachers dedicate their time, money, heart, and soul to the children of others. For many of us, wondering if we are making a difference is a daily occurrence.

This book PROVES that we all make a difference.

Proof comes when you least expect it, but need it most. Throughout my career as a middle school teacher, I’ve heard numerous others say, “We should write a book. Nobody would believe it though.” Trust me, other teachers would believe you because they have had a similar experience.

We SHOULD write books to share our stories, ideas, thoughts, experiences, and expertise so that we may help others. These are my thoughts and reflections on my career in education. My goal is to add to the dialogue in our schools about how we can serve our students, take care of ourselves, and implement positive change.

Lynette Greenfield stakes out, as firmly as ever, the position of poetry in a world where forces of oppression have largely mellowed language registers. Greenfield’s poems unfold in settings; local streets, cafés, and cities, yet these poems oppose grand pronouncements and renounce engagement. We see her continual evolution toward memory, but the role of poetry is still both vital and deeply emotional. These new poems, pitched at a register slightly lower than praise, offer a quiet surprise out of wise and hard-earned skepticism.

UNLIKE A BOSS, by ALEXANDER N. ANDREWS
The power of kindness can mitigate the ill effects of our increasingly online social professional world and our experiences at the office. It is an essential leadership skill that can cascade through people, changing the workplace culture along the way. Kindness is not always seen as a priority in the workplace, especially as it can contrast with the traditional image of a successful entrepreneur. Haven't we been told that "nice people finish last?" Office culture can be cutthroat and competitive, leading to hurtful criticism, lack of collaboration, and miscommunication.

However, now we are increasingly talking about well-being in the workplace, bringing an authentic quality to our work, and being gentle with ourselves and others around us.

UNLIKE A BOSS looks at these issues from a perspective of experience. Author Alexander N. Andrews has lived it and helps us understand this world and how to navigate through it. This book is a MUST read with practical advice and strategies for all industry professionals to learn from mistakes and effectively prepare us for the future. Andrews explains how our actions can advance diversity, equity, and inclusion, but organizations often lack data to know how well they're working - here's where they can do better!
