First Edition Design Publishing Releases New Book, “The Miracle Revolution” by Mark Landau

Leave a comment

The Miracle Revolution, by Mark Landau, is a remarkably different, remarkably sensual, science fiction exploration of healing our modern world.

Port Saint Lucie, FL, USA — Mark Landau’s The Miracle Revolution is an erotic, spiritual, healing, adventure, save-the-world, space opera, fantasy novel that will shock and delight you. Fifty Shades of Grey meets Lord of the Rings meets Wonder Woman meets the Rapture. Beware. It’s genre bending, boundary breaking, mostly nonviolent and contains sporadic super-kink, graphic super-sex and some deep, true, special, precious, honest-to-God wisdom.

“This is a book like no other I can remember reading… It is an entertaining, erotic, spiritual, rollicking good time of a simple sci-fi story that will probably provoke you, turn you on (or off) and possibly, if you let it, gently remind you of values long since buried in the cynicism of the 21st century western world. The Miracle Revolution is a fantasy about healing the world and the realization of dreams that western societies have long since abandoned or never even dreamed. And it is a love story.” ~Bruce MacLaren

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is astonishing in several ways and contains gifts few initially appreciate. Dive in and, perhaps, take an evolutionary leap forward. ~Shannon White

Genre – Erotica, Fantasy, Science Fiction, Adventure, Healing, Spiritual, Novel, Fiction, Ascension

The ebook version of The Miracle Revolution ISBN 9781506903026, published by First Edition Design Publishing (http://www.firsteditiondesignpublishing.com), is available on-line wherever ebooks are sold.

FED Publishing Releases New Book, “It’s In Their Blood: A Memoir of Siblings Reunited and Their Showbiz Legacy” by Scott Lee Needham

Leave a comment

It’s In Their Blood: A Memoir of Siblings Reunited and Their Showbiz Legacy, by Scott Lee Needham, is a sibling reunion 70 years in the making.

La Mirada, CA, USA — Scott Lee Needham’s It’s In Their Blood: A Memoir of Siblings Reunited and Their Showbiz Legacy is about the seemingly impossible. Siblings of a Vaudeville family separated at a young age, venture to Hollywood on separate paths, then reunite after 70 years.

This Memoir is written through the eyes, interviews, research and experiences of the author. It is a gift to his family; a verification of genetic history once lost, now found, resulting in discovery that had no memory, and memories that made a 70-year reunion possible. It is also a story for all of us, starting within this family and its consistent success in the professions that helped corroborate the passion and need to communicate. From printers, writers and publishers to vaudevillians and Hollywood actors, this true story reminds all of us about the wonders of inheritance, and how its relevancy revealed the seemingly miraculous. This family, once together and thriving, then separated for decades, now united and forever recorded within their memories and the contents of this book.

Author Scott Lee Needham’s professions have ranged from management, to business owner to Electrician. He has written poetry for twenty years, but never took his writing seriously enough to publish…until now. IT’S IN THEIR BLOOD was a story that was not a choice as he describes, but a passionate and purposeful venture that resulted in not only his families historical recording, but a story for all to enjoy. Soon to publish his poetry, he also is working on a children’s book. He lives with his wife and daughter in Southern California.

First Edition Design Publishing Releases New Book, “Chicken Salad and Ghosts” by Melanie Spycher

Leave a comment

Chicken Salad and Ghosts, by Melanie Spycher, tells us a ghost story filled with ghostly encounters of a positively playful and prank filled kind.

Tampa, FL, USA — Melanie Spycher’s Chicken Salad and Ghosts is partially an autobiography and part female mystery adaptation. But first, let me introduce myself: I am Nonni in this book. As I am writing this, I can hardly believe it’s been over thirty years since the depicted events took place. You may not believe in ghosts, and I am not documenting these experiences to convince you. I’m simply writing this book because, when reflecting on these memories in my life, thought they were worth sharing with others, both believers and nonbelievers.

Back in the seventies I owned a shop in the basement of a three-story, early 1900s house for three years. Though the area was quite small, I managed to keep it well stocked with hand crafted items representing over one hundred consignors. Above my business was the two-story house that functioned as an antique store. As the strange events began taking place, and then increased in frequency, Cookie, who owned the antique store, and I assumed that someone was playing pranks on us. What other explanation could there be? But that was until we began sharing our experiences with other shop owners and found that they, too, had stories to share.

Melanie Spycher was a nurse for thirty years, but ventured down a different path in 1976 when hearing a small consignment shop was for sale. While she expected some challenges in the new business environment, she never anticipated that ghosts would be amongst them. Though Melanie’s time as a small business owner was brief, the playful antics of a resident ghost changed her life forever.

The Backward Flying Angel, by Jim Sparr, is an easy reading, introspective journey through five generations of a contemporary Western family.

Denver, CO, USA — Jim Sparr’s The Backward Flying Angel gives the reader examples that demonstrate how experiences, family, institutions of education and religion shape our view of life. And how sometimes it all seems to come together and make sense in one beautiful moment.

Join the author as he intertwines five living generations, their different approaches to parenting while reflecting on himself as a grandparent, parent and child as his family travels to and on vacation in Colorado. Sparr deals with subjects such as communicating, discipline, comedy and tragedy, patience, temper, bad language, love and bonding. Finally, great-grandson Carter tells his part of the backward flying angel story from his fifth generation perspective.

FED Publishing Releases New Book, “100 things I love and hate about losing 100 lbs!” by Angela Hartshorn

Leave a comment

100 things I love and hate about losing 100 lbs!, by Angela Hartshorn, shares her thoughts on the trials and tribulations she endured in her emotional rollercoaster of losing weight.

San Diego, CA, USA — Angela Hartshorn’s 100 things I love and hate about losing 100 lbs! is an easy, quick read, loaded with humor and honesty. 5 Star Reviews!

Losing weight is an emotional experience and not all of it is happy. Actually, most of it is not happy. Luckily for me I was able to take the big things that stuck to me and focus on the love and hate of each of those things.

At the age of 36 I was over 225 pounds when I decided I needed to lose weight. I really had no idea how to do it so I just made sure I did not eat every single thing I wanted, and tried to get some exercise. As I changed my lifestyle the weight began to come off and over five years I lost 100 pounds. As I went through this process I noticed there was a lot of things I hated. I found myself not nearly as happy as I thought I would be about losing weight so I began to look at those things I hated in a more positive light. In the end I created a list of 100 things I loved, and hated about losing 100 pounds. I have been able to list these things and add commentary to each one of those things. Humor has always been a coping mechanism for me and this book is a great example of how I approach just about everything in life. Good, and bad.

Author Angela Hartshorn is a 42 year old woman who has been described as a chocolate chip cookie with a dash of Tobasco sauce. She spent over five years losing 100 pounds, and has since successfully NOT kept all the weight off. She takes one day at a time, and has been known to have several months of bad eating at a time, but has been able to keep her weight under control by her own standards. As the 100 goal line was approaching she felt a deep need to share her thoughts with others who may be experiencing the same things. She enjoys spending time with her family, learning new things, and eating cupcakes.

Genre – Honest, Humorous, Weight Loss, Struggle, Love, Hate, Cupcakes, Food, Frustration, Happiness

First Edition Design Publishing Releases New Book, “Accidental Dad” by Joshua McDowell

Leave a comment

Accidental Dad, by Joshua McDowell, exposes the harsh realities of being a single father in today’s world.

Toledo, OH, USA — Joshua McDowell’s Accidental Dad introduces a single father on a mission. He believes being a parent is the most rewarding experience in the world. For that reason, he wants you to help him change the family court system. A must read for young fathers and potential young fathers alike.

Each year, millions of children grow up in fatherless homes, resulting in teen pregnancies, school dropouts, depression, and suicide. Each child wants, needs, and deserves to grow up with a strong relationship with both parents.

McDowell is not an expert in conventional terms, but he knows how it felt to grow up without his father, and he also knows how it feels for a single father to have to deal with the court system that can make a father feel worthless. He shares firsthand information about our family courts to provide a clear understanding of the bias in courts across this country against fathers who want custody of their children. Joshua McDowell is handing us all a challenge. Help McDowell change the world, and help bring loving, caring, good fathers back to the head of household!

“Contrary to popular belief, many single fathers are getting the short end of the stick. I dedicate this book to all single fathers who truly love their children and want to be a major part of their lives. My son is my life, yet there were days in court when I would get so frustrated, so angry, and so tired of battling the bias against fathers – against me – that I was almost willing to walk away from it all. Fortunately I didn’t, and neither should you. Never give up hope.” ~Josh McDowell

Genre – Child Support, Custody, Visitation, Fathers Rights
