~ Praise for BEING INDIE ~

"This book demystifies the many aspects of self-publishing and presents them in a no-nonsense approach that I found refreshing. Other books might exist on the subject, but I have yet to read one that offers this level of clarification."

"What I appreciate most about Being Indie is the experience, and knowledge the author has about the process and the honesty with which she speaks."

"This is one of the best books any writer can read before venturing into the publishing industry. Matter of fact, to the point advice that I wish I'd read years ago. Ms. Lancaster also gives you the tools and a plan of action to be the champion of your work."

In Loving You: 52 Poems and Ballads of Love and Self Discovery Oct 16, 2014

by Eeva Lancaster

( 15 )

$0.99

To love someone but you can't have them... even if they love you back... is one of the hardest things in life to accept.

In Loving You is a collection of 52 poems that tells the story of Eeva Lancaster's love for a man she couldn't have. It is sad and painful, as the author shares her emotional journey and bares her pain and longing in her poems. In the end, Lancaster shares her hopes too, her triumphs and beautiful self realizations.

An excerpt:

Inside of Me

I hear the echoes of a sound so far away
I just don’t understand a single word they say...
I move closer so that I can better hear,
But when I do they always disappear…

I see the traces of a picture I have dreamed
But when I looked it isn’t what it seemed
Cause every time I made the colors flow..
I’m left with nothing but an empty show

I looked and looked and there at last I found…
A wondrous place with lots of wondrous sound,
There I have found the truth that set me free…
It wasn’t far, it’s just inside of me.

$0.99

Do you want to get to know your partner better?
Do you want to peek into what your life will be like when you live together?

You're Getting Married Soon... Now What? is a recommended read for all couples planning to take their relationships to the next level. Many couples forget to talk about the situations they will most probably encounter, leaving them unprepared and unaware of how their partners would react.

Feelings which lead to contempt, until one day you realize that the love you once felt... is gone.

This book will not give you answers. It will get you started on the questions, so you can get the answers yourself, and be better acquainted with the person you love. Who they are now... and what you can expect from them on certain situations in the future. Asking the right questions, will often get you the answers you need.

If you can talk about these things at this stage in your relationship, you can approach your future with more confidence. You'll know what to expect, and what's expected of you.

No wishful thinking. No baseless hopes and dreams. Just love... and the comfort of knowing who'll be walking life with you.
