About

I am a 1st time publisher – w/2 books out at the same time.  The other book is called `Successful Habits`.  I wrote these books because I felt I had something to share. I figured that if you have learned anything at all in almost ¾ of a century of living – you should share it.

 After all – even an idiot should have learned SOMETHING in all that time!  The idea is that the reader would not make all the same dumb mistakes you did.

Who knows, maybe someone could learn something from my 74 years of life’s experience.  If so, than the book is worth reading.

At any rate, you will get a chuckle out of it!!

Description

<p>New from the author of the multiple award-winning fantasy saga, <em>The Daughter of the Sea and the Sky</em>, winner of the <strong>Pinnacle Book Achievement Award, Fall 2014 - Best Book in the Category of FANTASY</strong>....</p><h1><strong><em>The Children of Darkness</em> by David Litwack</strong></h1><p>Evolved Publishing presents the first book in the new dystopian series <em>The Seekers</em>. [DRM-Free]</p><h2><strong>[Dystopian, Science Fiction, Post-Apocalyptic, Religion]</strong></h2><p><em>“But what are we without dreams?”</em></p><p>A thousand years ago the Darkness came—a terrible time of violence, fear, and social collapse when technology ran rampant.

For ten centuries they have kept the madness at bay with “temple magic,” and by eliminating forever the rush of progress that nearly caused the destruction of everything.</p><p>Childhood friends, Orah and Nathaniel, have always lived in the tiny village of Little Pond, longing for more from life but unwilling to challenge the rigid status quo. When their friend Thomas returns from the Temple after his “teaching”—the secret coming-of-age ritual that binds young men and women eternally to the Light—they barely recognize the broken and brooding young man the boy has become. Then when Orah is summoned as well, Nathaniel follows in a foolhardy attempt to save her.</p><p>In the prisons of Temple City, they discover a terrible secret that launches the three on a journey to find the forbidden keep, placing their lives in jeopardy, for a truth from the past awaits that threatens the foundation of the Temple. If they reveal that truth, they might once again release the potential of their people.</p><p>Yet they would also incur the Temple’s wrath as it is written: “If there comes among you a prophet saying, ‘Let us return to the darkness,’ you shall stone him, because he has sought to thrust you away from the Light.”</p><p><strong>Be sure to read the second book in this series, <em>The Stuff of Stars</em>, due to release November 30, 2015.

Story Behind The Book

I wrote this book after being dismayed about all the publicity about `The Secret` and various renditions of the Law of Attraction. While completely valid, all the hype was that somehow someone had `discovered` the secrets of life – and for a paltry $99 - $???? They would share these marvelous secrets with you. The promise was that it would change your life. The truth is – as I see it – that the ` secret ` is really no secret at all. The most ancient writings tell of it – as well as the Bible. Actually the Bible is full of these `secrets’. You can pick up a Bible for far less than one of these courses will cost! So, being dismayed at the proliferation of these `clandestine revelations’, I vowed to bring to the surface that what was lacking in our society was not some `covert source’ of information, but rather the application of these principles. So, this little handbook was born. It goes into the actual application of these beliefs, or laws, and does it with humor and wit. Each page has a saying, or representation of some type, to make the point in that chapter. And rather than relying on these purported `secrets` - it actually ties the principles to one of the newest branches of science – Quantum Physics. Isn’t that interesting? You will find that it is a fun read – and a very insightful step-buy-step guide for the person who really truly wants to live a fuller life. There is no hype about becoming a multi-millionaire in the next 90 minutes, but it does provide a program – which can (and should) change your life for the better – in very short order. Realistically, you will love it – and what it can do for you!

This is a very important book.</p> <p style="margin:0in;font-family:verdana;font-size:11pt;color:#000000;"> </p> <p style="margin:0in;font-family:verdana;font-size:11pt;color:#000000;">His whole philosophy is based on principles and personal character.</p> <p style="margin:0in;font-family:verdana;font-size:11pt;color:#000000;"> </p> <p style="margin:0in;font-family:verdana;font-size:11pt;color:#000000;">There are no shortcuts or quick fixes to success. Happiness is an &quot;inside&quot; out process instead of &quot;outside&quot; in. We can choose &quot;how&quot; to respond to negative stimuli, we are not slaves to our past experiences. And that &quot;we are responsible for our own lives.&quot;</p> <p style="margin:0in;font-family:Calibri;font-size:11pt;"> </p> <p style="margin:0in;font-family:verdana;font-size:11pt;color:#000000;">Anyone wanting to change their life for the better, I highly recommend this book.
