 Gerald P. Simmons Jr. Author of “The GPS Success Guide”
Gerald P. Simmons Jr. was born in Vicenza, Italy and raised mostly in Lawton, Oklahoma. By the age of five Gerald saw more of the world than most people will see all of their lives. These places include Italy, Alabama, Colorado, Germany, and Oklahoma. Gerald left Italy at the age of 4 months and from there he went to Alabama where both of his parents are from, Fort Carson Colorado, Augsburg Germany (where he started Kindergarten), Lincoln Alabama again (still in Kindergarten), and Lawton Oklahoma (still in Kindergarten). Needless to say, Mr. Simmons had the pleasure of seeing his Kindergarten teacher in Lawton, Oklahoma for 2 years straight. If you have not figured it out yet Gerald was what we call an Army Brat. From K – 6th grade Gerald lived in the Lawton/Fort Sill Oklahoma area. Then in the sixth grade it was back to Lincoln Alabama where he finished sixth grade. Seventh grade was spent in Wurzburg Germany Middle School, eighth and some of ninth grade was spent in Bamberg Germany High School, and the remainder of ninth grade on through twelfth grade was spent in Lawton, Oklahoma at Eisenhower Junior High and High School. Gerald is a middle child and has an older sister and younger brother. His little brother, which he has dedicated his book to, passed from cancer back in 2001. Today Gerald is married to his high school sweetheart, Denise going on eleven years (Dec. 28th), and together they have two sons named Keyonte (12) and Jaylin (5). Prior to taking his calling as an author/motivational speaker, Gerald was a High School football star in Lawton, Oklahoma’s Eisenhower High School. He attended East Central University in Ada, Oklahoma where he continued to play football, and at the age of 20 he decided to serve his country for six years as a decorated Sergeant in the U.S. Army. Before he got out of the Army he obtained his Associates Degree in Architectural Drafting from Intellitec College in Colorado Springs Colorado. He has recently returned to school in pursuit of his Bachelors in Psychology from Kaplan Online University. Gerald believes that his tips will help the reader spiritually, financially and mentally.

Six months into the marriage, the honeymoon is over and the fireworks spark as the couple prepares to leave Gary, Indiana for a new life in hot, sunny Florida. The tale unfolds in the Midwest, gets hot and steamy down in Da Dirty South and becomes downright ugly back into the Midwest. This young couple gives the phrase, "Can it get any worse?" a whole new meaning and leaves them wondering where love has gone. Just $17.95 — including shipping.

Jahzara began her writing journey when she was in the third grade. She recalls that it started when she was placed in the "Wee-One's" corner after having one too many confrontations with the boys in the classroom. Her third grade teacher really thought that she was punishing Jahzara by putting her in the "Wee-One's" corner and separating her from the rest of the class. Jahzara wishes to thank Mrs. Smith for providing her with the composition books and her own space in the classroom to be creative.
Jahzara was blessed with having inspirational teachers as she grew up, thus she decided to give back to the community what was given to her. She currently teaches high school in the Gary Community School Corporation. Jahzara is also a certified Clinical Massage Therapist, and the owner of Tranquil Moments LLC — a publishing company that also specializes in health and wellness. Jahzara lives in Gary, Indiana with her husband and two pretty princesses.

Unique Titles Written, Illustrated & Published by RYCJ/OSAAT Entertainment Although my interest is to write in varying genres, my focus is geared towards building and sustaining relationships, with the aim not to displease in either quantity or quality. With that tidbit 'exposed', I am still *NEW*, primarily writing for mature audiences... heavy on the love (though not graphic), and nonexistent on building characters I plan to destroy. I absolutely love my characters.

 Black Men vs. White Men The Black Woman's Choice Wednesday, September 16, 2009 at 7:07pm OCT 28, 2009 -- (eMediaCampaigns!) -- Speaking through her publicist, author Cicely J. announced the forthcoming release of 'black men' vs. White Men: The Black Woman's Choice (2009, GreenDay Publishing). Unhappy about the way things are, Cicely J. decided to write about it. The first-time author is set to release a dynamically controversial book in October, 2009, just in time for fall reading.
Cicely J. offers a panoramic sweep of a destined-to-be, bestseller. "This book is about real life situations that are plaguing African American communities," she explained. There are more black men in jail than in college. And, black children are 5 times more likely to be born in single parent households which are headed by women than white children."
The author continued, "Black women are tired of being alone, and tired of the choices they have when it comes to selecting a suitable mate. There are close to no single, eligible black men for our Nubian sisters today. More and more black women are falling for their 'Mr. Right' in the form of blonde hair and blue eyes because Darnell, DaQuan, Tyrone, and Omar are not equipped to meet her halfway. And, if she does meet an eligible black man who is educated and on her level, chances are he is interested in white women, does not want to commit, or is on the 'DL'," she concluded.
Advance word is that the publication will be as eye-opening as any controversial read that has preceded it. The book appeals to most readers, including those currently in, or contemplating entering a biracial relationship. "This is not a memoir about my sex life. It's not about relationships with rappers or basketball players. The book was written to spark a conversation as black men read what many black women really think," said Cicely J.
All readers can expect to be intrigued. Cicely J. compellingly states what many women think, but few say. 'black men' vs. White Men: The Black Woman's Choice is scheduled to be available for purchase online as well as select book stores, and other retail outlets globally next month.
Cicely's BLOG  Cicely J was born and raised in Northern California. She is a published author soon to release her debut non-fiction black men vs. White Men; the Black Woman’s Choice. Cicely is known for her straight forward approach to some of the most controversial topics thus she has been penned Miss Politically INcorrect in the literary industry. She has been writing since she was 8 years old and won many awards and certificates as a teen for creative writing. Cicely has relocated to the Atlanta area to expand her publishing company, CRJ Publishing, LLC. She is an instructor with “Writer’s Block”, a boot camp for up & coming authors and she is an awesome public speaker. Cicely has her BS in Legal Studies and is an ABA Certified Paralegal with over 5 years in the industry. Cicely is the Executive Article Writer for A Writer’s Point of View Magazine and she is a contributing writer for Vision2biz.com.

 Never Would Have Made It Is about how 14 people used their faith and trust in God to beat the odds and arrive on time. First an expression, then a song, Never Would Have Made It is now a powerful book of extraordinary miracles. It began with Nicole "Jahzara" Bradley's passion for collecting motivational stories from some of the world’s most influential believers. The stories are about individuals who faced setbacks, and yet had the courage and the strength to persist…to hang on when the storms blew through. Through Divine guidance, Nicole knew the writings - once gathered together - would be of tremendous help in motivating and inspiring others to persevere through tragedy to triumph. So early in 2009, she went to work on the life-transforming book of captivating stories of adventure, suspense, adversity, and wisdom. It's a compilation of inspirational, insightful, and unforgettable writings that speak to the heart, mind, and human spirit. And one that you should not be without.
- Fran Briggs
Publicist for the Author, Nicole "Jahzara" Bradley Greetings: Never Would Have Made It by Marvin Sapp is a powerful song of testimony that is sung across the globe. So, you can imagine my excitement when I decided to be obedient to God and compile a book of testimonies and life-altering messages with the same theme.
Stories of triumph over adversity have been told since the beginning of time. They have encouraged, enlightened, and inspired. Great things are accomplished when people exercise their faith and exercise their courage. They become better, wiser, and stronger. There are similar books out there. But very few of them recognize God - specifically - as the Source of triumph. Never Would of Made It, does.
The book features 14 talented authors who not only give their accounts of reaching 'the turning point,' but give God the praise and the Glory He deserves. NWHMI will inspire you with possibilities, and ignite your courage so you live nothing less than a remarkable life! My hope is that you not only enjoy these powerful stories, but share Never Would Have Made It with your family, friends, and co-workers.
To that end, I want to make it super-easy for you to do so.
It is my pleasure to offer Never Would Have Made It to you for $12.00 USD. This book is life-altering. It comes with another special offer that I would like you to be a part of. My hope is that you will accept my invitation.
Sincerely, Nicole Bradley, Contributing Author/Publisher Now is the best time to order an autographed copy for you, and bless your friends with copies, too.

The Seven DEADLY Sexual Sins This book is raw, uncut and unsensored in which I talk candidly and openly about my personal battles with sex and exposes the issues that society as a whole deal with as well. It reveals God's intentions relating to sex and the way God instructs us to use our bodies. For far too long, we have been careless with our bodies and have been using our bodies in the wrong way and now it's time to start doing things the right way. This book exposes what we have been doing wrong and gives you tools and advice on how to start doing it right.
  Author’s Bio I grew up on a farm in a little city called Plantersville, Alabama, which is near historic Selma, Alabama. My mom, Annie Lee and my dad, Vermon, raised thirteen children. I am next to the youngest. All of my young adult life, I have been single; therefore, I know what it’s like to be so lonely at times that you question your very existence. It took me years to finally realize that I meant something to God, and I realized that if God sees value in me, then one day someone else will see it, too. God has called me to become a motivational speaker on abstinence to help others see how valuable they really are. I hope that through some aspect of my ministry, whether it be through my books, my Christian magazine, singles website, or a radio talk show, someone will see the importance of preserving their virginity because they know how valuable they are.
Bio of the Book All of my teenage and adult life, I have been single; therefore, I felt unloved and unwanted. For years, I battled low self-esteem, loneliness, depression and struggled with my identity. I looked for attention in all the wrong places. This book was written out of my desire to help others overcome the battles of the flesh that I too had to deal with. For far too long, sexual immortalities such as homosexuality, fornication, adultery, masturbation, pornography, etc. have plagued our society and now it's time to put away society’s false images of sex and reveal the truth according to God's word. We will evaluate what God's word says how we ought to live and offer ways we can, going forward, achieve the lifestyle that God wants us to achieve. This book will guide you in a direction towards deliverance and draw you closer to God.

Reflections of a Mississippi Magnolia Reflections of a Mississippi Magnolia- A Life in Poems
My book Reflections of a Mississippi Magnolia is a true celebration of the south and things southern. Using childhood memories, personal thoughts and dreams, I attempt to give a positive glimpse into the southern way of life. There are so many negative connotations associated with Mississippi and the south in general. I want to show a flip side of the coin.There is much to love about this much maligned and misunderstood part of our country. I would really love for you to get to KNOW Mississippi in a different light and I want to introduce you. I invite you to Meet Mississippi Through Poetry, Prose and the written word.

I walked the halls of the hospital so many times, back and forth leaving my footprints on the floor. As I walked I prayed one day Kenny and I will walk back down that same hallway, to that same cold waiting room, where I spent eighteen hours waiting for him. So much I wanted to share with him, the cars that were lined up outside of the hospital, his friends that slept in chairs, bowed up in a corner with their head down crying, the fire extinguisher that his cousin Gary broke, when he heard of the news. The sound of my mother whispering in my ear recite the twenty third psalm, so much to share a pass I was hoping would be for the both of us. As I was walking down the hall of the hospital all sort of things were racing through my mind. What was Kenny thinking about when he was shot? Was he thinking about me? Did he call my name? Was he cold as he lay on the ground bleeding to death? I would never know. So many questions no answers. How can you shoot someone and go home and go to sleep. I asked myself that questions over and over again no answers just tears. Young people dying on the street, the sound of gunfire makes my heart skip a beat, mothers are screaming why, receiving no answers to their cries, Kenny was my son who made the choice for him to die. While the perpetrators slept through the night, my child fought to live. Our dreams were shattered. The thought of not being able to watch no more football games with him, no more coming home to him lying in the front of the television as though he owned it. At this moment I was thinking and crying, asking myself will we get to do these together again. I smiled as I thought about the good times we shared, that smiled turned quickly as I thought about Kenny lying there fighting for his life, and so was I.

Triumph over Homelessness! I have learned that most people have experienced homelessness and the anguish associated with it at some point in their lives. Some people seem to think that it's so common that advocacy against it not warranted. I for one believe the contrary. No one should be without a home or place to rest their head, and I thank God for the shelter that was available to me during my time of need. This is why I am raising $120,000 to give to the Coalition On Temporary Shelter (COTS). I want to make sure there is assistance for others in need especially during our countries economic uncertainty. Join me in my efforts by purchasing a copy of my new book \ "Thank God for the Shelter - Memoirs of a homeless healer."
