The Reflection in the Mirror is an inspirational book designed for women of all ages who suffer from low self-esteem and low self-image. Often times, this problem starts from a young age, usually pre-teen years, when acceptance is sought from our parents, our peers, and society in general. When identity cannot be found in the right place, a person will go through life seeking validation in all of the wrong places and that leads to constant disappointment.

Using the serenity prayer as a model, I offer a solution to this problem by helping the reader build confidence by understanding what their purpose is in life and discovering their true identity. My goal is for every woman to be able to walk with her held high regardless of what she looks like or what her “design” is.

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write The Reflection In The Mirror?

Nykee Parker: As a child, I was constantly teased by classmates over various physical features and so I thought I was ugly. I felt like I had no Continue reading 5 Minutes, 5 Questions With… Nykee Parker, author of The Reflection In The Mirror →

Deja and her mother Nicci were more than just the best of friends. They shared everything together from a good movie to eating off the same dinner plate.

Nicci also has a fiancée that treats her like a queen, despite the fact that she decides to go celibate until after their married. Deja starts to resent her mother after a failed relationship and decides to move in on her mother’s fiancée because she feels that she would appreciate him more than her mother does.

Is the flesh as weak as they say? Will Phoenix give in to the temptation of the younger, firmer version of his future wife and father her child? Or will he remain the good man that he his known to be? One Lie, one Confession, will they all suffer the Consequence?

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write Lies Confessions & Consequences?

Brian L. King: I am always inspired by everyday real life events. Every story that I write, is happening in someone’s life or has happened in someone’s Continue reading 5 Minutes, 5 Questions With… Brian L. King, author of Lies Confessions & Consequences →

Sex: How to Get More of It is a fast-paced, witty guide for men on how to achieve romantic bliss with the women in their lives. The book takes a no-holds-barred approach to understanding women so that men learn why we act/react the way we do and how they can “work it” to get what they want most: more sex and a happy mate.

This is going to sound bad, I know, but the book coaches men to lie when appropriate and scheme a bit, but it also gives them tools on how to be kind and loving without breaking the bank.

Wouldn’t you love to watch football without interruption? To not be nagged to death? To play video games without being hammered at? To get more and better sex? Learning how to make that happen is what the book is all about.

Ultimately, we all want to be happy. It can sometimes be easy to fall into everyday ho-hums in a relationship, and that’s when we start forgetting to do the things that made us and our significant others happy in the first place. Sex: How to Get More of It is a kick in the pants for all the men out there so that they know EXACTLY what to do to have a joyful home.

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write Sex: How to Get More of It?

Jodi Ambrose: I’ve always been fascinated by human behavior and shocked sometimes by how senselessly people cause one another pain. It Continue reading 5 Minutes, 5 Questions With… Jodi Ambrose, author of Sex: How to Get More of It →
