Tamera Nielsen Announces the Debut of Photo and Quote Book, “Perspectives: Words on Hope, Truth, and Integrity” Exclusively at Everybody Reads Books and Stuff at Cost

Tamera Nielsen announces the debut of her book, “Perspectives: Words on Hope, Truth, and Integrity” exclusively at Everybody Reads bookstore – at cost – in support of Capital Area Local First (CALF).

Tamera Nielsen, Author, Photographer, and Publisher of “Perspectives: Words on Hope, Truth, and Integrity” announces the book’s debut at Everybody Reads. “Perspectives” is available at cost exclusively at Everybody Reads in support of CALF, a Lansing-based organization whose mission is to educate the local community on the importance of buying from local proprietors first. Member of CALF and Proprietor of Everybody Reads, Scott Harris is an advocate for local authors and talent.

Everybody Reads offers its clientele more than books. Wearable items, edible treats, a community room, and a book trade – operating on the honor system are a few highlights of Everybody Reads located at: 2019 E. Michigan Ave., Lansing, MI. “Perspectives” is a colorful compilation of original quotes and photography providing observations on life. “Perspectives” is available at cost at Everybody Reads to support CALF and raise awareness for buying local, especially during this Holiday Season. “I wholeheartedly support Scott’s and CALF’s mission of buying local, and I’m honored to be among one of the local authors Scott has chosen,” Nielsen says. “Perspectives” has garnered worldwide attention and accolades via Nielsen’s social media and local outreach. Initial reviews from readers include local entrepreneurs, writers, artists, and photographers. “You bring such passion and emotions to what you say that one can’t help but be drawn to your kind words of affirmation, hope, and enlightenment.” ~

Raymond Burks, Writer “Your perfect quotes matched with your personal photographs are a wonderful prescription for pausing, refocusing, and redirecting one’s energy to positive paths forward. A great resource to help bolster a stronger tomorrow for every reader.” ~ Roy Saper, Owner Saper Galleries and CALF Member. “You have a gift for creating memorable and helpful sayings… as a writer I understand the machinations of capturing your creativity… coming up with a self-directed short phrase or two that has meaningful impact is a ‘horse of a different color’… I also enjoyed your photography.” Robert Sadler, Novelist-Essayist-Poet-Artist and Photographer According to Nielsen, “Perspectives” would not be available to the local Lansing community at Everybody Reads without the support of Harris and the mentoring of Okemos-based Talk Radio Host and Editor of “Sport” Lansing Sports Magazine, Jack Ebling.

“Each word in this book has emerged out of survival to overcome traumatic events in my life, and I created it to help others. I am most comfortable ‘behind-the-scenes’ supporting others, so sharing this book publicly is admittedly difficult for me. If however, it continues to help others; raises awareness for CALF and Everybody Reads, I will have accomplished my mission,” Nielsen says. About Tamera Nielsen Based in East Lansing, Michigan, Tamera is a self-taught, self-employed Business Development Consultant-turned-Life Altering Trauma Consultant.

Her 30-year career includes conceiving marketing strategies and writing for professionals and CEOs in virtually every industry nationwide.

Atlanta, GA, November 19, 2010 — Tis the season. As a woman, you are most likely busy juggling daily activities with preparations for entertaining and celebrating. It’s easy to become overwhelmed, frustrated and feeling a little blue, especially if you’re dealing with blended families, gift-giving decisions, and fighting the bombardment of great foods and wines. Don’t be afraid to say your sick and tired. Now is the time to share what makes you sick and tired and possibly earn some cash and Sick and Tired products.

Dazzling Concepts, makers of the Sick and Tired collection of unique and humorous gifts, apparel and accessories, wants to know what makes you sick and tired during the holidays. So they have launched the Sick & Tired Holiday Contest.

“I enjoy shopping, so any holiday that involves shopping falls into my favorite list, but I admit that I get sick and tired of particular things during the holidays,” says Faylene Bell, CEO and Chief Mood Strategist at Dazzling Concepts. “For instance, having to deal with too many holiday shoppers is a big one as well as blowing my diet with all the holiday goodies.”

Faylene shares additional Sick and Tired holiday frustrations such as dealing with divorce or stepparents, knowing who should get a gift, how much to spend and wondering if the other person will give a gift in return. “After all,” says Faylene, “if I take the time out of my busy schedule to buy you a gift…you better believe I will expect a gift in return.”

The contest, meant to serve as the perfect forum for venting your frustrations, will award one sick and tired winner with a $100 cash prize as well as free Sick and Tired products.

Mom’s Mission is to Develop Kind and Confident Children

The Halo Publishing author is scheduling presentations at schools, libraries and bookstores to help children understand the importance of having values such as courtesy, empathy and respect.

Valley View, OH, October 27, 2010 — Mom Nicki Donley is on a mission to help children feel confident in social situations. Inspired by conversations with her seven year old triplets, Ava, Lily and Grace; Donley wrote Cool Conduct, 100 Ways To Make A Positive Impression. The Halo Publishing author is scheduling presentations at schools, libraries and bookstores to help children understand the importance of having values such as courtesy, empathy and respect.

“I believe unbecoming conduct can hold a child back both personally and academically from reaching their potential.”

“My philosophy is that a child’s conduct should make them and those around them feel good and confident, not upset or embarrassed.”

Cool Conduct is a fun and educational question and answer book that identifies manners, etiquette and safety. The book is designed to encourage discussions of appropriate behaviors that develop respectful children. Donley said recent reports of increased bullying, particularly cyber bullying, make the book quite timely.

Topics include social, outdoor, electronic and school etiquette, respecting belongings, safety, verbal and non-verbal communication, table manners, healthy habits, public places, and acts of kindness. Donley also created a “Cool Conduct Pledge,” in which children promise to be kind and respectful to themselves and others.

“Children are reminded there is no reason to treat others with disrespect and to be comfortable with who they are and what they want to become,” Donley said.

Donley grew up in Parma, Ohio, where she attended St. Charles Catholic elementary school and Holy Name High School. After graduating in 1990, Donley attended Kent State University and earned a bachelor’s degree in Rhetoric and Communications. She has been married to Chad Donley for 13 years. The family resides in Twinsburg, Ohio.

Donley is working on another book to help children accept and love themselves, just as they are. In addition to writing books, Donley is the owner of “Move Over Cards,” a stationery company that offers environmentally friendly gift enclosures. An avid recycler, Move Over Cards designs products from recycled paper and uses no wasteful envelopes.

Their philosophy is “Be Good to the Earth”
