BOCA RATON, Fla. – August 19, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Audiobook Network author Stephen F. Knapp, who holds two master’s degrees and has had multiple careers throughout the years including as a golfer in the Professional Golfers’ Association, has completed his new audiobook “Don’t Ask Me How I Feel I Have MS”: a heartfelt memoir detailing the author’s struggles and understanding of multiple sclerosis.

“Prior to my diagnosis, I had no idea what multiple sclerosis was,” writes Knapp. “No one in my family has ever had it. Much like so many other illnesses with long names, if I did not know someone who had it, I probably did not know anything about it. But when something catches my attention, I delve into it full steam ahead. I will never consider myself an expert on MS. I am not a doctor. However, I have read a number of books about MS, I have attended many MS seminars, I have read extensively about it from ubiquitous Internet sources, devoured all the pamphlets put out by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, and other national organizations, and I have viewed videos on various subjects related to MS. I have also joined several local support groups who meet on a monthly basis. I now feel I have at least a fair degree of formal understanding about MS.”

Years of dedicated research on MS to gain knowledge about his disease has led Knapp to better understand exactly how he could take back a certain level of control over his life. Along the way, the author has also discovered possible links to how MS can develop, writing, “Through my own research I have learned that Scotland has more people with MS than any other country per capita, in the world. It is very dark there with little sunlight which seems to be a good climate for MS to occur.”

Published by Audiobook Network, author Stephen F. Knapp’s new audiobook is an incredible source of information on a disease many people do not have first-hand knowledge of. Knapp shares all he can in the hopes of helping those newly diagnosed looking to find stories they can relate to and loved ones of those with MS looking to better understand what the experience is like.

Recent audiobook release “Fighting the Loneliness: Confined to a Place Inhabited by Many” from Audiobook Network author Artis J. Singleton is a powerful journey through the mind of a prison warden, who often finds himself alone on the job with only his thoughts to guide him. Told through a collection of poetry, Singleton’s tale focuses on finding one’s peace despite one’s circumstances in life.

VALDOSTA, Ga. – August 19, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Artis J. Singleton, a retired prison warden of 30 years, has completed his new audiobook “Fighting the Loneliness: Confined to a Place Inhabited by Many”: a thought-provoking exploration of tuning into one’s inner soul and listening with the ears of God for guidance in life.

“After a long day of work with no one to talk to, God would whisper in my ear, ‘Occupy your mind’,” writes Singleton. “I didn’t know what was going on or how to respond, but as the loneliness got worse, I started to realize that if I didn’t occupy my mind with something positive and good, that other little voices would start to occupy my mind. Those voices tend to lead you away from the things you value most in life (God, family, friends, career, and so on).”

Singleton continues, “Occupy your mind with God’s will for your life, or the things in the world will help you occupy it with the world’s will for your life. Make your daily decision and choices based on the godly things you value most.

“I truly hope you find the poems enjoyable, and hopefully, they give you a small glimpse into the mind of a lonely but blessed prison warden.”

Published by Audiobook Network, author Artis J. Singleton’s new audiobook is an enlightening experience that discusses how looking toward God for salvation can aid in the fight against one’s inner thoughts and demons. Each poem will provide comfort to listeners and remind them that no matter how lonely one’s circumstances might be, they are never fully alone if they form a connection with God.

Using his skills to perfectly encapsulate human emotion, Rust discusses friendships, love, and heart attack, such as in his poem entitled “Sadness in Loving You”, in which he writes, “Such a beautiful evening || Why does it always end the same? || You come to me for only a moment in life || And at the day’s end, you return home

“Baby, I sit here alone crying || Asking, Why isn’t my home your home? || Patience I need; yes, I agree || Still where are you? Why not with me?

“No pain do I feel || But sadness for our lost time || I know you say soon to be || Hold me tight, and chase away the nightmare

“I love you more than words can express || Yet my actions come far short of the truth || There is no way to make you understand || Being apart from you is a personal hell”

These animals of both present and past are the inspiration for her stories.

Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Tami Johnson’s new book takes place just a couple of days before Christmas at Bird Scratch Ranch. Twin goats Hans and Greta wander around the farmyard taking in all the excitement of the other animals as they prepare for Christmas. They are confused and do not understand what all the excitement is about. They have never heard of this thing called Christmas or what presents are. There is even talk of someone named Santa Claus that they have never met.

As they head to the barn to ask their mom about this Christmas thing, they run into Ben the guard dog. When they tell him that they do not understand what Christmas is all about, Ben tells them that back when he was a young pup, he did not know what it was either until his mom told him a story about Christmas.

On Christmas Eve, Ben sets Hans, Greta, and some of their friends down in the barn and tells them the story his mom once told him. The story of the very first Christmas.

FALLS CHURCH, Va. – August 19, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Fulton Books author Rev. Fr. Francis Aning Amoah, Ph.D., an ordained Catholic priest, has completed his most recent book “Leadership Styles and Spiritual Traits of Catholic Priests: A Research Exploring the Relationships between Leadership Styles and Spiritual Traits of Catholic Priests”:  an interesting look at the correlation between different leadership techniques and spiritual traits of catholic priests.

Fr. Francis Aning Amoah has made some fascinating findings in his new book, writing, “Thus, the more catholic priests provide guidance, counseling, teaching, and shepherding among congregation as a transformational leader, the more likely they will be reliable, mature, effective, helpful, compassionate, and spiritual. Contrary, the more catholic priests become laissez-faire leaders, the more likely they will be weak, blaming, ineffective, emotionally unstable, lacking internal organizational principles (low SD), self-absorbed, intolerant, critical, revengeful and self-regarding (low CO), and absorbed in what they do, spiritual and capable of adapting to a situation of pain and suffering (high ST).”

Published by Fulton Books, Fr. Francis Aning Amoah’s book draws connections between how a catholic priest leads and what spiritual traits they possess. People in leadership positions have great influence on the people around them, which makes good leadership essential for organizational growth and success. Readers will get to learn all about different leadership styles and spiritual traits and what correlation lies between them. Fr. Francis’s need for discovery has given readers access to a world of knowledge. 

Fr. Francis’s book lays out for readers various leadership styles and what those styles show about different spiritual traits. Amoah has calculated these end results with the help of 93 catholic priests. The study sample helped him create an engaging book that gives readers a look into an interesting topic that isn’t often discussed. 

Readers who wish to experience this compelling work can purchase “Leadership Styles and Spiritual Traits of Catholic Priests: A Research Exploring the Relationships between Leadership Styles and Spiritual Traits of Catholic Priests” online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play or Barnes and Noble.
