author appreciation, Author Interview, author to author, book introduction, welcome to my world

Welcome to Interviews and Introduction of Rising Authors #5, and if
you have a story to share with the world, contact me!

Today is not about #MOI or my books; Today is about a rising author, Welcome to my page Grace Grossman

Being an internationally published author, an active blogger, and a social media advocate. My followers are real, and I believe in working together via different means to provide and see change taking place with fellow authors.
During the confinement, I launched my I channel on YouTube, where I conducted live interviews with over 60 guests to entertain my audience but mainly to promote online businesses and raise continuous awareness about different topics; & here is where the idea of promoting authors came from.
Therefore I invited authors to join me, with simple interviews to introduce them to the world, and help them get their voice heard, in the hoping that one of the clicks will be the magic button to their success!

Join me to congratulate Grace Grossman for her book, don’t forget to like the post and write your review if you have a chance to read their book Chill Out and Cheer Up: A Ten-Step Guide


Sharing the book title: Chill Out and Cheer Up: A Ten-Step Guide

About the author

Grace Grossmann is a writer, author, qualified Yoga Teacher and Wellbeing Coach based in Berlin, Germany.

Through eBooks and paperbacks, Grossmann shares her wisdom as learned through the hard times life has taken her through and shows us how we can remain resilient and come out stronger than we went in. Her voice is honest and vulnerable – something people can feel and hear when reading her words. She is raw and real. Her words are there to share and care as well as show you it’s ok to not be OK. Remember this: find faith. 


Through helping you with blogs or copy writing, she can share her clear voice for a reasonable price as a freelance writer. Through offering coaching sessions, she helps guide you to find your truth and feel happy and healthy when dealing with hardships such as anxiety. She asks the right questions and probes tough love so you end up showing yourself your answer that lies within. Through her yoga sessions, she leads you to find grace and gratitude on the mat as well as smile – don’t take life too seriously! 

Book Synopsis

Now is your time to chill out and cheer up. Learn to acknowledge, accept and become aware of who you are by welcoming in self-love. Be free, be you. You can’t control the world around us, but we may find ways to stillness, happiness, and brightness in everyday life. Screw being positive all the time; none of us can be. It’s about how you feel and finding your flow. One step at a time. 

This ten-step guide is split into two sections: first focusing on four negative feelings then six positive steps to seek out stillness within. Our western world has distilled a toxic type of mentality in us all, causing us to constantly seek approval and further development – it is too much. We are urged to seek out fulfilment in every corner that cannot guarantee long-lasting hope, rather than trust what is within and let our heart guide us. The struggle of the rat race is real, but finding balance is the real deal. This book will show you how your answer lies within, reached through the practice of self-acceptance, awareness, and love.

Where can I find Grace’s book

WORD FROM THE AUTHOR to the reader

Nowadays, we question what leading a happy life entails, how to be satisfied. We end up wasting our energy away, looking for happiness and not living it the right way. What even is the right way!? We follow the path that is supposedly set out to us by societal stresses and cunning commercials, steering us in the direction of Always. Wanting. More. When in your twenties, thirties, even sixties, we often question what’s happening. Let’s heal together.

His first collection of his poems Fragments of my Broken Voice is his recent publication

· Book Synopsis: In the context of poverty, particularly, when you live among people who lack basic needs, your voice is broken. It is broken because of crying day in and day out. However, in those crying intervals, there are also intervals of laughter and jokes. The famished people have time for love. They bear children who bring joy among them. That is the irony of life. I find myself in that context. The symbols of land, flames, nothingness and humanity run across this collection, reflecting the richness, the vagueness and the variety of life. The life of those lost in poverty yet struggling to survive and live.

In my attempt to find a voice, I have discovered that my voice is broken. And any attempts to gather the fragments together have proven to be futile. This is, therefore, a collection of my cries… Broken. That is why it is titled Fragments of my Broken Voice. The poems have been divided into five thematic chapters: cries of anguish, mating cries, cries of laughter, celestial cries and cries of sorrows. Come, join me in crying for we are a people who are born crying and are escorted to the grave with cries. Crying is our living. Crying is our survival.

Ndondolera’s message to the reader
The poems in this book represent a voice from a poor country in Africa (Malawi). As the poor struggle to survive, they cry in anger, they cry in their mourning. But they also cry in joy and love. There is love in their pains. Enjoy reading and reflecting on cries from Malawi. Buy it on https://www.amazon.com/Fragments-my-Broken-Voice-Poems-ebook/dp/B08QM5KXC8/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_pl_foot_top?ie=UTF8

Thank you Ndongolera C. Mwangupili for the giving me the opportunity of introducing you, it was an honor!

Book Synopsis:

El juego de los errores is the fourth book published by this author and it brings together the first stories, the first stories, that he has written since 1987 and they are not related to each other since each text is independent of the other. What are they about? They are narratives that are born from life experiences, where the author moves away from poetry, uses aspects of reality typical of journalism to arrive at the narrative and fictionalizes in a plot that belongs to a possible world. Says the author “I took the title of one of the stories, to represent the book. It is a rare title, meaning it is not found in other books often.


The new book by the Latin American writer Antonio Rolando Arenas is already on Barnes & Noble “El juego de los errores” with its main narrative successes “Un error en Borges”, “No creas en Natalia”, “Un periodista sin trabajo” in which narrates the vicissitudes of the newspaper HOY, “Otra vez sangre”, “El diario de una villa” with which he won the Ana María Agüero Melnyczuk Prize for Research – 2014, and that merit made him realize this book. 
Also in: Apple Books, Rakuten Kobo, Scribd, bol, Mondadori Stores and Smashwords. 


What would you like to say to the readers, a word from the heart.


I am very excited about the result of this book because I have managed to enter the different online bookstores that promote my book through Google. I have access to different interviews in which I can express my feelings, my intentions and my experience as a prominent author with a career that goes beyond the city where I live. I am reaching readers from other countries and I find satisfaction in projecting myself with my book written in Spanish.
I know that there are readers who expect my literature in English, so I share here the narrative “ON THE STEP”.

Join me to congratulate TRACEY FLETCHER for her book, don’t forget to like the post and write your review if you have a chance to read their book

My name and pen name is Tracey Chizoba Fletcher.

The asin number for Amazon Kindle is B08HWWRV19

The asin number for Amazon Print is B08HTM69ZF

Book Title is Feminine Shades

Publishing date for print is September 12, 2020

Publishing date for kindle is September 11, 2020

Publisher is Phoenix Award Books Publication (PABPUB)

About the Author

Tracey Chizoba Fletcher, born to a British father and a Nigerian mother, lives in Lagos, Nigeria. She is an Author, International award-winning writer, Columnist, Voice-over artist, and Editor.  She won the Afritondo Alternative Ending Competition in 2019, and has a short story “Chudi’s Hustle” published on their platform. Her novella, The Chase, was shortlisted for the Phoenix Quill Writing Contest. She was recently awarded “Best Selling Author” by the Influential Writers and Authors Community. She is the Author of Feminine Shades.

SYNOPSIS OF FEMININE SHADES BY TRACEY CHIZOBA FLETCHER 

The first story, “Rising from Ashes”, portrays Nneka’s journey to empowerment. Having come from an impoverished background, without any support from her father, she leaves her father’s house with her mother, who can no longer withstand domestic violence, and arrives in her grandfather’s house. Her grandfather marries her off to an older man, Agwu, who treats her like a slave. In a fit of rage, she accidentally kills Agwu, and is left at the mercy of the justice system. However, a non-governmental organization come to her rescue, and plead her case. The organization provide shelter and support, and Nneka is able to develop the strength and courage to visit her past in order to find healing and closure, and move a step ahead by training to become to a software developer. 

The protagonist in “Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown” is Maureen. She is a career-woman, wife, and mother. She however struggles to find her self-worth, as her capabilities are questioned after giving birth to her first child; in her home as a wife and mother, and in her office when she returns after maternity leave. She battles with her emotions, until she comes to an understanding that only a queen can have battles, and fight to overcome them. 

The protagonist in “E go Beta!” is Mama Ekene, a widow, who lost her husband when her children where very young. Now in her 50’s, she tries to keep hope alive, and seeks a better tomorrow in the midst of hardships faced by herself and her children. 

Ezinne in “On the 28th” is an undergraduate, studying to become a microbiologist. She derails when the three high class ladies in her department, befriend her, and introduce her to a billionaire. She finds herself lost in his seduction, and doesn’t realize the trap he has set, until he deflowers her, and becomes incommunicado. The fact that she could be pregnant, brings her to her knees. It’s a long road to placing her feet back on the ground, as she painfully waits for her period to show its face again. 

“Yellow Pawpaw” walks us through the life of Nkem, a depressed spinster, who decides to bleach her skin, in order to gain attention from the opposite sex, in her bid to find a husband. Her new endeavour leaves her almost penniless, with her business failing, and her skin getting damaged due to the harsh chemicals she uses, even as her plan to be married doesn’t seem successful. A neighbor comes to her aid, to help her rediscover and love herself again. 

“My Doppelganger” features two female characters: Amaka, a Nigerian girl, and Debbie, an Amercan, as they wade through 14 years of friendship, to overcome societal and racial differences, to become bbf’s; and work together to achieve their dream of becoming lawyers, and owning their free legal advice clinic. 

“Ada” is the story of Ada, the first female child of the Obi’s, as she lives up to her responsibilities, shouldering and taking care of her parents and siblings. She is rewarded with a good marriage, and a husband, willing to reward her for all the sacrifices she has made. 

Word from the heart to the reader:

Feminine Shades is a collection of seven short stories central to the female gender, depicting the inward strength and courage of the female protagonists. 

Each story has a message both for the male and female gender. It’s time for the silent voices of the women folk to be heard. It’s time for the men in our lives to really “SEE” what we endure on a daily basis. It’s time for a woman to be respected, supported, and loved. It’s time for a change!

Today is not about #MOI or my books; Today is about a rising author!

Being an internationally published author, an active blogger and a social media advocate. My followers are real, and I believe in working together via different means to provide and see change taking place with fellow authors.
During the confinement, I launched my I channel on YouTube, where I conducted live interviews with over 60 guests to entertain my audience but mainly to promote online businesses and raise continuous awareness about different topics; & here is where the idea of promoting authors came from.
Therefore I invited authors to join me, with simple interviews to introduce them to the world, and help them get their voice heard, in the hoping that one of the clicks will be the magic button to their success!

Join me to congratulate M.A Amru for his book, don’t forget to like the post and write your review if you have a chance to read their book

About the Author: 
A bit about myself: Born in Singapore, I started to be interested in writing when I first got hold of books during Primary school, and from there on, I have many creative ideas that I wanted to pen down and let others read because I really want my work to inspire people to have their own creative ideas and perhaps even write interesting books. When I write, I want to tell a story, and also I do want more people to delve into books because I feel that books are really something that we can enjoy and take us away from this world and into another. Science fiction is one way to do so.

Book Synopsis:  
Humanity has reached the stars without our own acknowledgement. Centuries of humanity in the coast of the stars paved for civilization greater than ours. Now amidst the Second World War, these humans have returned once more to reclaim their glory. But humanity would not surrender — Resistance is established by a group known as the Mensheviks. They are working to protect humanity from destruction, even from within…

What would you like to say to the readers, a word from the heart:
When you are writing, you must take into consideration that you are writing for yourself, for your own happiness and not for the sake of others. I believe in artistic independence and integrity. Throughout the centuries, the man that has taken the step forward to innovative equipped nothing but his own vision. The great creators of our time – the thinkers, the artists, the scientists, the inventors, they all stood alone against the men of their time, society, their communities. Every great new thought and new invention was opposed. His truth was his only motive. His own truth, and his own work to achieve it in his own way. I am the Howard Roark of Literature and I standby the thought of man’s pursuit for what he wants to achieve, wanting men, in my case me to write what I want to write and to produce that work that I feel is right not to serve anyone else or society but to allow human progress. The reason why I write this novel is that I wanted to express myself and the changing world that is occurring around me, each episode that I live through and the experiences that I have seen boils to formulate this story as a philosophical debate but set in a fictional realm that is different to ours. A writer must refuse to compromise with many publishing houses that are unwilling to accept innovation and in that he finds himself alone just like I do when I feel that is right and not based on what others want of me. It is in a way to encourage others to write to their hearts and produce solid work that would be the pinnacle representation of human endeavours.
