My non-fiction books, audio, articles, and video will not always be well-received by certain types of people (worried, strange, self-righteous, jealous, petty, and evil), people don't always want the truth.
Over the years, I have learned that many individuals rather believe lies. So I don't go to everyone or everything to share my work for reading, review, or much else. For instance, a book about manipulated mother types is not an easy read and nor do I recommend reading this around the mothers in your life that are giving you a hard time. A memoir about dating/domestic violence is not going to leave you uplifted, nor would your abusive partner approve. Non-fiction guides that bring awareness to so many types of individuals with many challenges are not meant for people who are uninterested in physical change, mental healing, and most of all FREEDOM! So I'm not surprised when some just don't get me or my work.
Unfortunately, many human beings enjoy their cages--these are the ones who say, "I don't want to know...I rather not read it...I don't understand...What?" They don't want anyone coming by and telling them they are in bondage and they need to be let out. "Let me stay..." their disputing eyes say. "Leave me alone, I'm not ready for this..." their bodily mannerisms project. And so, when I see this sort of thing, I am not angry nor am I worried, but I am disappointed because I don't have a clue when the rebellious will come up out of their miserable situations. I don't give them anymore warnings, no sales pitches, and no pleading, "Get my book." My work is simply not for those who are easily offended, suffer with many personality issues, and unwilling to see the truth for what it is.
To every non-fiction author out there who has felt like people just don't understand you or your work, consider this, there are those who do, but in the wrong hands, your projects might be dangerous for them. When the walking blind are not ready to see a light or two shine brightly on their lives, they just won't connect with you or your work or neither. When hurting people don't want to take our hands and walk, we don't force them. On to the next chosen child of God...we keep moving!

On to Another Project...
Presently, years of research as well as private and public writings are being sorted for an interesting compilation about my daily personal journey uncovering truth in all its forms. From family to media, there is much to be discovered when you start questioning things like: spiritual beliefs, holiday traditions, government, media, education, parenting practices, relationship, and more. Through this process of truth-seeking, one grows spiritually, mentally and physically while freeing his or herself from regrets, pain, resentments, lies and more. It is then that you become better equipped to help others.
I recognize that in order to attain certain things in life, one must be willing to step outside the box of his or her mind (personal perceptions, judgments, etc.), make some sacrifices, and strive to become the best you can be at anything you set your mind to do. However, you can't do that when you are bogged down with negativity from media and other mediums, opposition from those who are envious and hateful, others' perceptions of what they think you ought to be, as well as all the other things that come with caring too much about anyone and anything in this temporal life. At some point, one must slow down and ask, "What am I really doing? What do I sincerely want out of life and what will make me most happy?"
Many of us have spent years attempting to appease others and not nearly enough time soul-searching and making room in our lives for truth. Dispelling all the lies you have been told from childhood on, is just the beginning to discovering your life's purpose and whether or not who you are today is an accurate depiction of the real you within. There are far too many actors and actresses on the screen and off the screen lost in a maze having no clue as to what true love, peace, happiness, and freedom really is, due to minds being suffocated by too many insignificant people, places and things. Many individuals who are determined to make their lives worth living, discover the kind of truth that lifts them up and it is clear that they are blessed beyond material wealth. Others may have much, but lack wisdom and eventually find that personal burdens they thought they could manage for years are robbing them of their lives and healthy connections and strides they could have made, "If only..." This truth is often uncovered while the dying are lying on backsides with tubes up their noses as their heartbeats begin to slow, but by that time it is too late.
I thank the many people whose work over the years has caused me to think differently about a number of personal and professional decisions I have made over my lifetime with the prompting of a bit of unhealthy media brainwashing, religious and educational programming, dysfunctional connections, etc. I had been puzzled by many things over the years, yet my conscious mind had been quieted with unproductive distractions while my unconscious mind yelled, "Something is wrong with who you are speaking to...where you are going...who you are connecting to..."
There are many good teachers on YouTube that greedy corporations attempt to censor, steal ideas from, discredit, and work to get videos removed. I am grateful and feel blessed to have watched their work online. I am providing some sources in my work that I hope readers will consider during their truth-seeking journeys.
Well that's it for now, I will make an announcement here and on other sites when my book is complete.
Be blessed,
Nicholl

Tell Me Mother You're Sorry - the book is here!
Are you expecting your mother or any mother type in your life to apologize for some wrong-doing? Well, keep waiting. For some prideful women, they aren't going to say anything more than, "Keep on being angry...You owe me an apology!" Those loved ones that do apologize, some are sincere. But others not so much, they have a personal agenda right around the corner.
Tell Me Mother You're Sorry is a playbook that opens up a game that many manipulative mothers like to play that love to control others more than relate to them. This work will enlighten some who are naive, gullible, and silly (like I once was) to the game(s). There are mind games that some of these women that have been around their share of players, pimps, hustlers, and overall crooked people that they play. If you don't know any better, you come off as weak, needy, troubled, or crazy even if these things are not true about you. By the time you are finished with Tell Me Mother You're Sorry, you will want to work hard on changing some things about you while coming to the conclusion on what you want to do with those toxic women in your life.
The book is not for those who are scared, nervous, or still grabbing on Mother's apron strings. This is a non-fiction piece for the daughter or son who is simply fed up with Mama, Mother, Mommy, or Mom. Issues involving stepmothers, mother-in-laws and enabling fathers are also addressed. You will find many things you have been through with your mother or someone else's in this book as well as tips on how to move on with your life.
I observed much growing up when it came to familial relationships between mothers and their children as well as sibling issues, and I can tell you from my experience that some people will never learn or change. They are who they are, and you have the choice to do some things different for yourself and your family. Sometimes we have dysfunctional relationships with relatives for far too long that we would never tolerate with a toxic boyfriend or girlfriend.
Be free!

Know Your Enemy: The Christian's Critic
After four years of planning, creating, editing, crying, and being challenged on all fronts concerning my book, finally I have released it-- thank God! Know Your Enemy: The Christian's Critic was one of those books that I couldn't write without being tested. Like Job, I had personal trials that came up during the creation of this book that made me draw nearer to the Lord. Satan is REAL! The devil doesn't want you exposing him! He wants to come into your camp and cause mayhem and expects the Believer to lie down and take it--well not this Christian, he had me mistaken! Far too many believers cover their eyes and carry on with their lives oblivious to the enemy's schemes. It's time to take back what the devil has stole from you, expose him on his plans to destruct your world and those around you, stand when he tempts you to run, and use every situation to just love the Lord just a little more! You will enjoy this read even if you haven't been to church in awhile, don't like religion or simply want a relationship with the Father free of all the man-made programming.

They Said They Would Buy, But They Didn't...
Whether someone buys an author's book or not is really a non-issue, but what is a problem, for me, is when someone promises to buy a book and doesn't. You see, I have bought plenty of things that really didn't tickle my interests, but I wanted to show my support to a new author, to someone's offspring, a new dad, etc. Once I bought their book (cd or other products), I gave them to someone who I thought would appreciate their hard-work more than I would. So this brings me to the following point, for those people who I personally know, who have yet to buy any of my books, could you stop making promises, and just buy something? Thank you.
Sincerely,
Yours Truly,
Love, Love...

Laboring to Love Myself: sequel to Laboring to Love an Abusive Mate
I am thrilled! My book Laboring to Love Myself is on Amazon.com If you aren't familiar with my first book, Laboring to Love an Abusive Mate then you might be wondering what's the big deal? Years ago, I was a victim of dating/domestic violence with a man ten years older than me. He was very controlling and believed that I was the problem for everything that went wrong with him. He blamed all the women of his past including his own mother. The problem was he had severe mental issues that resulted from some very disturbing things that he witnessed and experienced as a child and young man. I wrote the Laboring to Love an Abusive Mate, because I felt burdened to tell young women why we shouldn't stay in a relationship with an abuser.
Emotional and physical abuse is all the same. The controlling individual promises the sun, moon and stars but in the end he is bitter, manipulative, and scary. Who wants a relationship with someone like that? I urge anyone who happens to view this page, encourage those you know or yourself that this will be the year you will get out of the relationship and stay out!

Selling on eBay Part-time
Well with so many projects going on, I need the funds for marketing and I don't have any Rich Uncles that will help. From my domestic violence cause to offering my book publishing services and articles for sale, there is just never enough money to take care of the needs of my children and me. Those of you who know me, know that I don't sugarcoat the truth, but times are difficult.
So while waiting for my ship to roll on with some other projects, I sell part-time on eBay. Items up for sale include new toys for toddlers and older children and pre-owned electronics. Feel free to periodically check in, my site is still new so I don't have alot to sell. My seller name is 8booksandstuff.
Thanks for stopping by and keeping up with my latest projects. If you haven't stopped by Blurb.com or Amazon.com to purchase a book by me, please do. Just type in my name in the search boxes at the sites "Nicholl McGuire."
I appreciate whatever support you can provide.
