Welcome to THE PROMOTIONAL BOOKSTORE While it has only been a few short years, there is no doubt that THE PROMOTIONAL BOOKSTORE remains the industry’s most unique book supplier and the only source for thousands of titles that are selling currently or are hard to find gems. Whether we have met through a request from your customer, because you heard one of our ideas and needed more information, or made a presentation that resulted in a sale, we are thrilled that you remain a part of what we have started. We began this company with the intention of not being just another supplier, but rather, a trusted partner with information and ideas that you would integrate into your daily business needs! Our services are designed and proven to assist you in reaching your goals. For those who have understood our position and began this journey with us, we say THANK YOU! Our success is because you have experienced equal or more success! For those who have not heard of us—or who have not looked at how different we are—we ask for the opportunity to prove ourselves and to see that we are not just a book supplier, but rather, we are an idea supplier and a provider of concepts that are well thought out and that work. THE PROMOTIONAL BOOKSTORE is making many radical changes to how suppliers approach the promotional business and to how vendors we work with look at our industry. We have identified specific industries who use books in unique ways. If you call on any of these businesses, you should contact us: banks, credit unions, hotels, payroll companies, accounting companies, insurance companies, airlines and churches and most others. Look on the rear cover for more examples of how we can help you make more money. Challenge us to create a promotion for you or to show you several ways to use books for promotional opportunities. We know you will be pleased with what you see and surprised at what you hear. If you are not offering incentives that motivate your employees or customers, you are losing, time, efficiency and profit. We can help! Sincerely,

BRIAN JUD

STEVE LIEBOWITZ $15.99 | PBC15008

Do you consider yourself ‘professional’? Are you a new professional or an old professional? Old professionals don’t use all the energy available to them and so struggle. New professionals use all the energy available, struggle less and are happier. Old professionals rely on science and exclude spirit. New professionals combine scientific objectivity with the spiritual qualities of creativity, compassion and intuitiveness.

Featured Titles

The New Professionalism

Everyone, even you, has access to both Science and Spirit. Using both makes you a new professional and more successful. Using either one or the other holds you back and makes you an old professional. New professionals realize Science & Spirit are connected, two sides of the same coin. Nearly 200 years ago, Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote, “Get your bloated nothingness out of the way of the divine circuits.” New professionals get their bloated nothingness out of the way by using both/and thinking instead of either/or thinking. New professionals realize it’s not either Science or Spirit, but both Science and Spirit. New professionals know that trade-offs are unnecessary. Being an old professional is playing with half a deck, only some of the marbles. Why not learn to be a new professional and play with all your marbles and a full deck? Imagine what you could accomplish for yourself, your company, community and the world if you had the full use of both Science and Spirit, right now.

The Covenant and the Scrolls Trilogy

Three novels about Biblical characters continuing the theme of both/and thinking and the seeming conflict between the Spirit and the Flesh. All three contain scenes of a sexual nature, not appropriate for young readers.

A Stalker ’s Journey JOHN C. LUKEGORD

T

he fields of professional sports and entertainment are sprinkled with successful stars who have triumphed in spite of a rough background and unfortunate childhoods. The ranks of high finance, business, and commerce boast many individuals who can be said to have been born with barbed wire in their mouth, not smooth silver. But for most people, being born into the jungle produces savage behavior. A Stalker’s Journey is an imaginative attempt to get inside the mind and life of a career criminal, one whose impulse is to cheat and connive for fortune rather than work for one. By age two, Curtis Evan Ware is motherless, left to be raised by an alcoholic father, when his mother succumbs to cocaine addiction. By sixteen, he has been incarcerated for violent crime and spends a year as bait in a sexual shark tank, victimized in a way that he will later seek to inflict on others — beginning with a Girl Scout bringing him cookies. But when Curtis targets a neighborFICTION hood in a small town in Maine, he PAPERBOOK $12.95 PBC15097 KINDLE $2.99 PBC15098 meets an opponent impervious to his wiles as a con man. Paperboy Ace Gordon and his friends Willy and Donnie McNolte manage to thwart Curtis’s attempts at abduction and embezzlement, though they hardly grasp the extent of the danger they have faced until years after the event, when Curtis Ware is removed from civil society for a long time. In the end, though, Ace and the reader will be left struggling with the puzzle of what causes one person to follow the path of evil and self-destruction, and another to choose the path of good, though both have similar upbringings. A Stalker’s Journey is a psychological crime novel that a reviewer of an earlier, self-published version referred to as a “… disturbing and prized item on your electronic or physical shelf…” 17

Millions of Americans believed that our healthcare system was broken and needed to be repaired, but believed that the Affordable Care Act (ACA) was not the right solution, only the beginning of a host of new problems. Now that it has been passed, and many of its provisions are known, most Americans have lined up against the new law but are uncertain about and afraid of what is coming next. Is it too late to repeal the ACA? What would we replace it with?

The Lord of the Infield Flies will thrill readers with Coach Steve Reilly’s harrowing, challenging, and adventuresome baseball team’s trek from Connecticut to play in Maine. As a prequel to his award winning memoir, The Fat Lady Never Sings, Reilly, a high school baseball coach, narrates the true story from the beginning of his coaching career at the age of 20. In summer 1977, Reilly plans to take his high-school-age team on a weekend trip to the baseball mecca on Cape Cod to play a Massachusetts all-star team. When plans go awry, he jumps at an offer to take the players instead to the serene surroundings of southern Maine to play that state’s all-star team. Most of the team’s starters decline; their hearts had been set on “The Cape.” Determined to go through with his commitment, Reilly gathers ten players to make the four-hour trip in a cabin truck and his car on a Friday night. Will the team arrive in time to battle Maine’s best the following morning?

“From the smallest, most obscure and funny detail of a five-hour trek to Maine, to the most uplifting gamewinning performances, ‘The Lord of the Infield Flies’ is an instant hit for the pivotal players and just die-hard baseball fans. It’s just as good, if not better, than Steven Reilly’s previous gem, ‘The Fat Lady Never Sings.’” — Mark Jaffee, Waterbury Republican-American sportswriter, and Connecticut High School Coaches Association Hall of Fame Selection

After his legal alcohol-age players convince him to stop at a package store on the way to buy just a “few beers” for the idyllic cabin they will be staying at in the resort area of Old Orchard Beach, they exit the package store with hand trucks filled with cases of beer. Chaos reigns. The cabin truck with its inebriated players gets separated from Reilly’s vehicle, losing half the team traveling in the opposite direction in Massachusetts! Will the team ever get to Maine? Will the team play Maine’s all-stars? And, will the players make it back to Connecticut? Since 1976, Steve Reilly, a practicing attorney, has coached high school baseball in Connecticut’s Lower Naugatuck Valley. He has spent the last thirty years assisting other high school coaches and is currently in his seventeenth season at Seymour High. Reilly and his wife, Suzanne, live in Seymour, Connecticut.

any authors are also professional and passionate speakers on their topics. Those listed below are proven, experienced speakers who can address large audiences such as those at corporate conferences, trade shows, association gatherings, sales meetings or conventions.

Authors can be available for other events, too. A well-known author can be a traffic builder at trades shows. Corporations may invite the author to an autographing session during the lunch hour. Many groups and associations invite authors to speak to their members during a “Learn at Lunch” or similar type program. Of course, each event usually entails a speakers’ fee and book sales, for which you receive a commission. DR.

NANCY SPROWELL GEISE Author • Inspirational Speaker “Nancy’s presentation of Auschwitz 34207 at the U.S. Library of Congress was the most powerful presentation of the Holocaust I’ve ever heard, and I’ve heard a lot.” — ANTHONY PITCH, Author #

28

In 2007, Holocaust survivor Joe Rubinstein told author Nancy Sprowell Geise that he would never share his experiences at Auschwitz and several of the most notorious Nazi concentration camps. Five years later, he changed his mind. Shortly after its 2015 release, Auschwitz #34207—The Joe Rubinstein Story, became an Amazon Best seller ranked # 1 in Holocaust Memoirs. In Washington D.C., Nancy presented Joe’s story at the U.S. Library of Congress and was awarded the Coin of Excellence Award by the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum. Nancy has been invited to speak across the United States with groups large and small, giving the Keynote Address at the State of Kansas Holocaust Commemoration Service. Joe’s story of hope and overcoming against all odds is relevant today as we each face challenges and struggles. “Nancy’s style is warm and engaging and puts people at ease.” —MICHAEL ABRAMSON, Chairman, North Carolina Council on the Holocaust

“Nancy gave one of the most moving presentations on any subject that I’ve ever heard. She had us laughing, crying and cheering.” —PHYSICIAN IN THE AUDIENCE, State of Kansas Holocaust Commemoration

PROGRAMS BY LINDA J HAWKINS Nutritional Programs An approximate 30–40 minute lesson; this program is targeted for daycare centers, homeschoolers, library reading groups, preschools, kindergartens, and grades 1–5. Small or large audiences. Lessons are based on Linda J Hawkins’ nutritional books: Alexander and the Great Food Fight, Alexander and the Great Vegetable Feud. Linda uses her children’s books as the basis for reaching out and interacting with children (and adults).

Speakers Bureau The nutritional program begins with Mrs. Hawkins sharing her personal story about what inspired these books, a brief of her research in this field, and an explanation of what children/families can do to be healthier. She then gets audiences to participate by having volunteers don fruit costumes (which she brings with her) as she reads and interacts with the audience, inserting appropriate nutrition facts and healthy advice to make her visit informative, yet personal. Her goal is for children/families to take away something useful to apply to their everyday lives. Mrs. Hawkins can add 20 minutes to the presentation for those who want a motivational component. She can talk about the importance of “self-education” done through reading books or accessing information online. Her philosophy is “one must first put in before you can take out.” She recommends this for grades 3–5. She can also include creative writing projects by helping small groups brainstorm and then create their own stories or books. Tea/Etiquette Program From 30 to 60 minutes in length, this program works well for anyone age 2–92 including girl scouts, pre-schoolers, teenagers, garden clubs, Red Hat Society gatherings, church groups, and family reunions with tea party themes. The program can be adjusted to fit each group’s needs. She always makes time for questions from the audience. This program is best when there are no more than 40 students/ adults. The host organization may wish to serve a simple or elegant tea before, after or during her talk. Most people do not know the history of tea; this is where we get most of our tea traditions. Mrs. Hawkins can instruct and demonstrate a variety of ideas for serving tea, as well as talk about the importance of good etiquette, show how to properly use a napkin, set a table, etc. Signed copies of Mrs. Hawkins’ book, Catering to Children with Recipes for Memorable Teas, and The Unspoken Language of Fans and Flowers with Recipes are made available at each event (and can even be used as a fund-raiser for the group). Training Programs Mrs. Hawkins is also available to meet with Title I teachers or other adults to train them on how to incorporate her workshops into their school’s curriculum/programs. Each teacher receives a free book, a teacher’s guidebook, and a school packet. Costs begin at $40.00 per person. Cost is reduced as the number of participants increases. Motivational Programs Mrs. Hawkins works with Christian as well as the secular market. She does inspirational programs for church groups, Ladies Auxiliaries, or mixed groups about the struggles/ victories she has experienced to reach her current place in the world.

(continued) STEVE LIEBOWITZ, ED.D. Fired up and opened up! Excitement, humor and enthusiasm are what Dr. Steve brings to his presentations and what he stimulates in his listeners.

Dr. Steve’s fresh ideas, wisdom and insights are more than motivational. A participant at a recent workshop said as she hugged him, “You’re saying things I’ve always known, but couldn’t get out. I wanted to stand up and cheer!” Every event deserves the best key note. Dr. Steve lives in Miami with his wife of 49 years and two dogs. He’s published four books and given over one hundred speeches. He holds an earned doctorate from Florida International University and two Master’s degrees. He designs and presents dynamic memorable key notes, workshop sessions, half day, whole day or weekend, as well as high powered retreats and spirited team building experiences. All of Dr. Steve’s presentations involve whole person learning — spirit, head, heart and hand. Most in demand are his presentations and workshops on: Mindfulness, Stress Management, Team Building, Client/ Customer First, Managing Change, Innovation and Creativity and The New Professionalism: Connecting Science and Spirit. Make a positive difference, invite Steve Liebowitz, ED.D, to present at your next event. CINDY NOLTE After being asked for years by her clients and friends how she always seemed to remain at peace regardless of what was happening around her, Cindy Nolte was motivated to write her best-selling book, Finding Peace in an Out of Control World: A How-to Book on Being at Peace Regardless of What Life Throws Your Way (PBC 15150). Only months after her book was published, she was tested to apply her principles when her husband was diagnosed with lung cancer. Cindy Nolte is a television talk show host, keynote speaker, consultant and founder of Fresh Look on Life. Originally focusing her efforts solely on training and development in earlier years, her desire for a more balanced life led her to explore the holistic field. She is a certified hypnotist, hypnosis instructor and energy practitioner.

29

Speakers Bureau Stressing balance as a key factor in wellness, Cindy insists it is also paramount in productivity in the work place. She combines her 20 years of experience in training and development with her extensive studies in mindfulness to offer a unique approach to solving today’s organizational obstacles and to deliver uplifting keynote speeches. Speaking topics include: • Finding Peace in an Out of Control World®:  We can’t change the world around us, but we can change our reactions. This lecture guides the audience through a journey that will assist them with finding their bliss regardless of what they are facing. • A Journey into Another Life®: Through explanation and the exploration of our own energy and that of those that we love, plus as a past life regression experience attendees will gain proof that our spirit lives on through eternity. This is a truly enlightening experience! EDDIE PRICE is one of the more active authors/speakers in America. A retired high school and college history teacher with 36 years of award-winning teaching experience, Eddie published his widelyacclaimed historical fiction novel Widder’s Landing in 2012. His historical programs have been presented in national and state parks, classrooms, genealogical and historical societies, patriotic organizations, and writing summits and awards ceremonies across the country.

(PBC 15050) the first in a series of eight children’s books illustrated by the nationally-renowned artist Mark Wayne Adams. The children’s program “Little Miss Grubby Toes Steps on a Bee!” is complete with a full reading, questions and answers, singing, puppet show, educational PowerPoint slideshow “Bees and the Good Things They Do for Us” and coloring sheets/word puzzle. (Great for pre-school, K–3 classes.) One Eddie’s most popular programs is “Take it to your Readers!” (also entitled “Writing, Publishing & Marketing!”) This program is for aspiring authors. It teaches the importance of being proactive—finding the book’s readers and getting it out there through speaking engagements and related programs. “How a Children’s Book Happens” shows how a children’s book is developed and the roles played by author, illustrator, editor, graphic designer and publisher. (Grades 4–adult.)

RULIN XIU, a quantum physicist, a divine channel and soul healer living in Hawaii, had profound experience encountering the Divine. These experiences changed her life forever miraculously. In early 2014, she received from the Divine this book to awaken humanity to the Divine Love. In this workshop, she will share her experience about divine love and how it has changed her life and how to receive divine love and let divine love transform and uplift every aspect of your life. “Love is the only purpose. Love is the only way. Love is the only power. No matter what challenge you are facing, love is the only solution. The purpose of all the challenges in your life is to open your heart further for my love. When you know this truth, you can go through your challenges faster. I ask Rulin to write down my words in this book to help you know what my love is, how to open up your soul, heart, mind, and body for my love, how to live in my love, and how to become my love. When you open your heart fully and completely to my love, you will reach divinity. You will obtain the ultimate love, abundance, beauty, wisdom, power, and bliss.” —THE DIVINE
