Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through vignettes proceeding through life, the author depicts his struggles, as a boy, teen and man, with excruciating shyness and his progress in conquering his affliction. Raised Catholic in the D.C. suburbs, little Jimmy finds himself literally and figuratively on a runaway go-car, with only the vaguest idea of how to control braking or steering. Arriving at William and Mary, Jim is fascinated by an unrepressed girl, but must free his barricaded thoughts to form a relationship. Fueled by his desire to participate fully in life, his efforts include a stint as a crisis counselor, who must help a potential suicide embrace a trying life. Jim marries, strives to become an Atlanta mega-firm lawyer, fathers three children, and confronts the everyday challenges of contemporary life.

Book excerpt: For a shy guy, life is an awkward adventure. Everyday is filled with clumsy conversation, and solitude is a familiar friend. As a lifelong shy guy, Michael R. Ebert has been there. But he’s never shared his secrets. Until now. In “Diary Of A Shy Guy,” Ebert bares his soul in never-before-told short stories that take the reader inside a shy guy’s unique mind. Spanning adolescence to adulthood, the timid Long Islander brings his biggest embarrassments to life in suspenseful fashion. From class participation to approaching girls to public speaking, the cringing never stops. But read with compassion, because shy guys are everywhere. And like Ebert, they have their own skeletons. Their own horror stories. And their own diaries.

Book excerpt: The memoirs of Mary Rodgers—writer, composer, Broadway royalty, and “a woman who tried everything.” “What am I, bologna?” Mary Rodgers (1931–2014) often said. She was referring to being stuck in the middle of a talent sandwich: the daughter of one composer and the mother of another. And not just any composers. Her father was Richard Rodgers, perhaps the greatest American melodist; her son, Adam Guettel, a worthy successor. What that leaves out is Mary herself, also a composer, whose musical Once Upon a Mattress remains one of the rare revivable Broadway hits written by a woman. Shy is the story of how it all happened: how Mary grew from an angry child, constrained by privilege and a parent’s overwhelming gift, to become not just a theater figure in her own right but also a renowned author of books for young readers (including the classic Freaky Friday) and, in a final grand turn, a doyenne of philanthropy and the chairman of the Juilliard School. But in telling these stories—with copious annotations, contradictions, and interruptions from Jesse Green, the chief theater critic of The New York Times—Shy also tells another, about a woman liberating herself from disapproving parents and pervasive sexism to find art and romance on her own terms. Whether writing for Judy Holliday or Rin Tin Tin, dating Hal Prince or falling for Stephen Sondheim over a game of chess at thirteen, Rodgers grabbed every chance possible—and then some. Both an eyewitness report from the golden age of American musical theater and a tale of a woman striving for a meaningful life, Shy is, above all, a chance to sit at the feet of the kind of woman they don’t make anymore—and never did. They make themselves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this funny and telling portrait of the artist as a young pornographer, Bernard Wolfe chronicles his own unlikely entrance into the world of letters. The year was 1936, and Depression laden America had no great need for a Yale Phi Bete whose primary talent was for words. After working variously as a secretary–bodyguard for Leon Trotsky in Mexico, a cataloger of the Irving Fisher papers, and a hopelessly inept drill–grinder, Wolfe landed his first professional writing job: turning out piecework porn at $2.00 a page for an Oklahoma millionaire. He credited his pornographic efforts with teaching him to write to specified lengths while facing deadlines: "I acquired the work discipline of a professional writer, capable of a solid daily output."

This book was released on 2013 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines memoir-writing by many of the key political actors in the Northern Irish Troubles (19691998), and argues that memoir has been a neglected dimension of the study of the legacies of the violent conflict. It investigates these sources in the context of ongoing disputes over how to interpret Northern Irelands recent past. A careful reading of these memoirs can provide insights into the lived experience and retrospective judgments of some of the main protagonists of the conflict. The period of relative peace rests upon an uneasy calm in Northern Ireland. Many people continue to inhabit contested ideological territories, and in their strategies for shaping the narrative telling of the conflict, key individuals within the Protestant Unionist and Catholic Irish Nationalist communities can appear locked into exclusive and self-justifying discourses. In such circumstances, while some memoirists have been genuinely self-critical, many others have utilised a post-conflict language of societal

Well this book can get you there, quickly, through the real life and incredibly detailed seduction reports. The following is an INCREDIBLY valuable, unorganised mind-dump of seduction stories, old diary posts and epiphanies from author, dating coach, acupuncturist and internal masculine development coach Chris Bale, of www.masculineintent.com Chris is one of the worlds top International dating, sex, lifestyle design coaches, and has been playing in the land of women for many years now. After suffering with crippling social anxiety(at his worst stage he couldn't even buy bread in a shop), Chris decided he had to change his life. He was living in a self created stress everyday, and at one point came close to ending it all. "I chose to make a decision. I chose to take my own life into my own hands, as nobody was going to grant me confidence or abundance in any aspect of my life, other than ME" Chris spent the next 8 years blowing his old reality completely out of the water. At times, it was almost too difficult, but he moved through, learning with every failure. 'I went from sleeping with just 1 girl to the age of 21, to sleeping with over 400 at 28 yrs of age. I have completely lost count. My brother still jokes with me, asking what number I am on. My journey through seduction ended up being nothing to do with women, and everything to do with facing my own fears and growing in life. Women and sex will not fullfill you. I learned that the hard(but fun) way. Now my passion is helping men to reconnect to their core confidence and guiding purpose. Women just so happen to go weak at the knees for a man who knows himself and what he wants." The following stories stem from a direct manifestation of all the seductive qualities, which Chris teaches step by step in his book: The Gentleman's Guide To Effortless Seduction: http: //www.amazon.com/Seduction-Gentlemans-Effortless-Meditation-Attractive-ebook/dp/B01D3GGK7O You will learn and grow endlessly just by reading the individual journal entries, which have went on to help educate and inspire thousands of men who have been following Chris's message over the previous years. Your mind/reality will be bent and widened. Once you see the truth, you cannot forget. Action is the only way forward.
