July 6, 2019 gibbsdream

mybook.to/OtherStreets

Rio, Brasil has always been split in half. Marcos Martinez is from the half where homelessness and poverty is the norm. The son of a man who lived on the streets until he was adopted at the age of twelve, Marcos has made it his mission to defy the norm and make something of his life. Gio Silvas knows only the lifestyle of the other side. A billionaire’s son, he’s a selfish, weak, narcissistic bully who thrives on hedonism, vibrant carnivals, and untold wealth—a lifestyle where the word “no” is not part of his vocabulary. When Gio falls for Marcos’ twin sister Caro, a hard life lesson is heading his way. Will he see the error of his ways and change, or will his love for Caro push him and her family past the point of no return? Familiar characters await, along with new, to both entrance and appall in this third instalment of the Children from the Streets series. Come. It’s time. Carnival is upon us. Are you ready to return to the streets?

If you haven’t read the first two books in the series, you can pick them up below:

A Boy from the Streets

Two babies abandoned at birth—one grows up in a life of privilege, the other in poverty.

On the 12th of September, 1981, twin boys are born in a Brasilian hospital and left to their fate as orphans. Jose is adopted by a couple who takes him to England, but the other isn’t so lucky. Pedro ends up on the streets of Rio, left to fend for himself in a harsh and unforgiving world.

Love and betrayal.

Twelve years later Jose’s family returns to Brasil, where he learns the truth about his adoption and his twin. Thinking his adoptive parents no longer want him, he runs away to find his brother. What follows will shake Jose to the core and shape the rest of his life—if he can survive.

Murder.

Jose isn’t the only one whose life will change. Pedro is offered an opportunity beyond any of his wildest dreams, but to keep it will mean the betrayal of someone he loves. This proves to be a far greater challenge than he anticipated when the orphan finds himself suddenly surrounded by family who, unfortunately, don’t all have good intentions.

Hopes and dreams.

A Boy from the Streets will tug at your heart-strings and have you rooting for the little guy as you follow the twists and turns this multi-continental tale takes.

mybook.to/SinsFather
Sins of the Father

Having seen first-hand the results of starvation, abuse, and murder, Carlos Suarez knows all too well that the streets of Rio are no place for a child to grow up.

Because of his own history and subsequent rescue from that poverty at the age of fifteen, he makes it his life’s work to ensure opportunities are available to the future generations of Brasil’s homeless children—but no matter how many kids Carlos saves, it’s never enough for him.

Almost to the point of obsession.

Dedicated to his work, and haunted by his past, Carlos has never considered an intimate relationship with anyone, let alone another man, especially after that night. But when Fate throws him a curve ball, and his past comes screaming back threatening to destroy his future, Carlos will discover that redemption can be found in the most unexpected of places.

Guaranteed to tug at your heartstrings, Sins of the Father is a story you won’t be able to put down.

Round-up of the week 2nd June 2019

June 2, 2019 gibbsdream

World:
This week my world news is close to home, this is a friend of mine who has set up a Go Fund me. If you can help, even the smallest amount will help.

**SUMMARY**

The unexpected passing of Pam last November was the final blow at the end of challenging journey. She was in the process of subdividing their family land so that her MS afflicted son, and husband with a debilitating heart condition, both being unable to work, would be taken care of.

She was unable to complete that process when her own unexpected health issues took her from us.

We’ve been trying to complete the process for her, but we’re out of time. Selling raw land is not a task that moves quickly.

With inadequate financial means for housing and care, insufficient insurance, and mortgage debt, my family is at risk of losing their home.

This fundraising campaign will serve to buy the family the time they need to complete the subdivision and sale.

**HISTORY**

In 1998, my family, Pam, John, Joy, and Lee set out on a new adventure to establish a horsemanship facility that would go on to focus on beginners and connecting kids with horses. “Making Dreams Come True” has been the tagline of the Ranch, which it has lived up to repeatedly.

It became a full-time project for Lee that he sank his heart and soul into.

Joy, our grandmother, was retired with health issues and contributed to the journey by helping to take care of her great-grandchildren every chance she got, up until she passed away in 2008.

Our parents, Pam and John, put in many hours of hard work on the ranch to help bring this family dream to life, while continuing to work full-time off the ranch in order to support it financially.

It was never intended to be, and never became, a high-end facility. It was full of love, passion and a sense of community, with the successful intention of enriching lives. With Pam and John supplementing the cost of running the facility, prices were kept low to ensure a maximum reach of lives that could be touched.

Throughout the prime years of this endeavour, my family assisted many others in more need than them, by providing subsidized opportunities (often at 100%) for the boarding care of their horses and the experience of connecting their kids with horses through lessons and/or camps.

In 2015 my brother, Lee, was diagnosed with Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis. He was 44 at the time.

Over the last four years we have done our best to help him to adjust from the physically active life of a hands-on cowboy, to one confined to a wheelchair 24/7.

Soon after Lee was diagnosed with MS, his son, Justin, took over what he could of Lee’s duties in the areas of horse management, lessons, and summer camps, while continuing to work full-time off-site.

With Lee no longer able to run the ranch activities on a full-time basis, the revenue was reduced which created an increased financial strain on Pam and John to make ends meet. But they pushed through without a second thought.

In September 2017, John went through a by-pass surgery for his heart. He has not been able to work since and he still struggles with the challenge of declining heart functionality. It was at this time that Pam began the long process of getting subdivision approval on their land.

In November 2018, Pam passed away unexpectedly.

Myself and Justin are doing everything we can to help keep Lee and John in their homes, but it still isn’t enough.

Over the course of four years, my family has lost the earning ability of 3 family members. Not to mention coping with the emotional devastation of losing Pam, while still dealing with the major health issues of Lee and John.

There was no life insurance on the mortgage, leaving my family, with now very limited financial resources, with a heavy financial burden and the risk of losing their home.

Selling the entire property would be a last resort, as the equity from the sale would not provide for replacement accommodation for Lee and John. It might prevent a foreclosure, clear the debt, and provide for a couple of years of living expenses at best – if a property of this magnitude could even be sold in time. The higher likelihood is that the property would go into foreclosure before that could be achieved, leaving them without a home and no means of earning sufficient income to support a rental property.

Subdividing part of the land (which we have approval for), is the best option and we do have 79 acres of very good raw land available for sale for $699,000CAD. But raw land is not typically something that moves quickly, so time is needed, potentially a few years. There currently isn’t sufficient funds to cover the expenses and shortfall for more than a couple of months.

While in this state of limbo – worrying about what the months to come will hold for them – the health of both Lee and John are suffering even more with the added burden of stress and uncertainty.

It’s a horrible feeling to watch your family suffer and feel helpless to make things right for them.

After much encouragement from others, I decided to launch this fundraising campaign in an effort to do just that – make things right.

For a family who has spent their entire lives giving – reaching out for help doesn’t come easily or lightly.

Your donation support, of any amount, will go towards relieving the financial burden on a family who has given so much to others over the years. While also ensuring that Lee and John are able to stay in place, which will avoid the excessively stressful and costly situation of trying to relocate them, while coping with major health issues, and no guarantee that suitable accommodation could be found.

How will the family use the funds that are donated?

**IMMEDIATE GOALS**

**$12,000** will cover outstanding debt to prevent more immediate legal action against their home.

**$30,000** will buy the family an extra six months to complete the subdivision and sale of their land.

**$25,000** will cover renovation expenses on Lee’s home to accommodate his continually changing needs that comes with advance stages of multiple sclerosis.

Each additional $30,000 that can be raised will add another six months of security and time for the family.

**LONG TERM GOALS**

**$700,000** (hopefully through the sale of the land) will cover the above expenses and clear the mortgage (which will eliminate the monthly shortfall) and ensure that Lee and John are able to permanently stay in place without risk of further financial stress on top of their health issues.

This story will come as a surprise to many. It’s amazing what a bit of faith and a smile can hide.

London:

A blogger has told how giving up alcohol for good has helped her to buy her own three-bedroom house.
Laurie McAllister, 28, said one month she spent £1,000 just on going out, and that her lifestyle in London left her “struggling with anxiety”.
In 2016, while in bed with a hangover, she decided she was “done” and started saving to buy a new home in Norfolk.
“There is no way if I hadn’t stopped drinking that I would have this house,” she said.
While living in London, Ms McAllister said she would splurge on going out to meet friends and getting taxis home. She would also spend lots on food as she was too tired to take lunch into work the following day.
‘I’m done here’
“I wasn’t very happy – I was drinking a lot, going out a lot and not having the best time,” said Ms McAllister.
“I hated how I felt the next day.
“I hated the times I drank a lot and couldn’t remember anything.
“Nights that started well, all dressed up and surrounded by my best friends would end in an argument, regrettable texts or a blackout not remembering how I got home.”

Laurie McAllister celebrated her birthday in her new home in Wymondham which she moved in to in March
She said although friends would have said she did not have a problem, her alcohol intake was “bad enough for me to change”.
“I was struggling with anxiety and drinking was exacerbating that,” she said.
“The final time I drank wasn’t a big night out, but I woke up feeling like rubbish and thought, ‘I’m done here’.”

ImLaurie McAllister five days after going teetotal in December 2016
That day, she launched her blog Girl and Tonic, and wrote about the challenge of remembering she did not need to drink to have fun.
Stopping drinking gave her “clarity”, and she soon also noticed a financial benefit.
It’s hard being young and sober
Binge Drinking: Face the Consequences
Does Dry January lead to binge-drinking February?
“I saw quite quickly that I was saving money,” she said.
“I opened an ISA and put in what I had left over every month, then when I realised I was near [being able to get a deposit] I put in a bit extra.”
She said she could have stayed sober in London, but liked the slower pace of life and the countryside where she grew up in Norfolk.

Ms McAllister said her blog keeps her “accountable and sober”
After initially moving back, she lived with her parents for six months before renting a house with her brother.
She continued working full-time for a digital marketing agency, but also started teaching yoga.
Her family had been really understanding, she said.
“They support my decision to be the happiest person I can be. It’s been lovely to have their support and live closer to them.”
‘Quieter life’
Ms McAllister later moved back to her home county of Norfolk, and saved £10,000 in the first 18 months.
She bought her home in Wymondham, near Norwich, two months ago.
Ms McAllister said although she did not have particularly strong willpower, she helped maintain her resolve by taking up new habits such as reading and getting a dog.
“I do have a quieter life, but I’ve got a job I like, I love teaching yoga and I walk my dogs every day.
“I’m in a good financial situation and no longer paying rent.”

Ms McAllister shares her new home with a lodger and two miniature dachshunds including Margot (pictured)
She said it had also been crucial to tell friends ahead of social events that she would not drink.
“The narrative for me was, ‘You’re a weirdo if you don’t drink’ – it wasn’t friends saying that but more of a culture.
“I don’t really regret anything, but I do look back and think how many nights would have been exactly as fun if I hadn’t been drinking.
“I think if people choose to stop, they will also save money.
“I spent it on a house, but I have sober friends who have spent it on travelling.
“For me it’s all about choice – you can still be a happy normal person without the booze.”

My World:
This week I finally finished decorating my spare room, next week the carpet is being fitted and I’ll post a picture. Can’t wait to get everything back in and out of my room.
Not much other than work this week.

My Word:
Finished the final edit on book three in The Children from the Streets series. Just need to do a read through and then make it go live. Yay!

Have a good week.

World:

Rescued hiker: ‘It came down to life and death and I had to choose’

A hiker found alive more than two weeks after she went missing on Maui, Hawaii, has spoken from her hospital bed. Amanda Eller said she faced a choice between “life and death”.

Ms Eller, 35, was last seen on 8 May. Family and friends had launched an intense search effort and offered a cash reward for her safe return.

London:

A controlled explosion has been carried out on a World War Two bomb found near Kingston University, the Metropolitan Police said.
The unexploded device was found on a building site on Thursday morning.
Nearly 1,500 homes were also evacuated and the Met warned some may be without gas and electricity while surveyors carried out checks.
Police cordons in the Kingston area will remain in place while the site is assessed, the Met added
The controlled explosion was carried out by the armed forces’ specialist Explosive Ordinance Disposal team.
On Thursday, Kingston Council confirmed two polling stations being used for the European elections had to be shut while the bomb was being dealt with.
Students and staff from Kingston University’s Penrhyn Road and Knights Park campuses, as well as the University’s nursery and some student halls, have been affected by the cordon.

My World:

Three and a half months at my ‘new’ job and had my probation review and I’m pleased to say I’m still there. LOL
The WWII bomb that was found in Kingston was just down the road from where I work in Surbiton and many of the roads around me were closed off. I went out to do a property visit on Thursday but was stopped by a police cordon and the policeman explained that an unexploded bomb had been found, the road I wanted to go to was being evacuated at the time. My colleagues heard the controlled explosion on Friday, although I must be hard of hearing because despite being right next to them I heard nothing.
Still decorating, the wallpaper is almost halfway up and I’m going stir crazy, want my home back to normal.
A lovely day spent with my mum, dad, sister and niece Sophie who turned twenty on Wednesday.

My Word:
Started the final edit on book three and hope to have that released very soon. Watch this space!

Have a lovely week.

World:

Indian sprinter Dutee Chand speaks during a press conference in Hyderabad — Indian sprinter Dutee Chand has revealed she is in a same-sex relationship, the first sportsperson in India to openly acknowledge being gay.
The 23-year-old athlete says she has been seeing her partner, who comes from her village, for five years.
Chand says the Indian Supreme Court’s historic decision to descriminalise gay sex in 2018 encouraged her to speak publicly about her sexuality.
But some members of her family have not accepted her relationship, she says.
“I am having a relationship with a 19-year-old woman from my village [Chaka Gopalpur] for the past five years”, she told reporters from Hyderabad where she is training.
“I have found someone who is my soulmate. I have always believed that everyone should have the freedom to love. There is no greater emotion than love and it should not be denied.”

The Duchess of Cambridge has revealed a “sneak peek” at the garden she has designed for the Chelsea Flower Show.
Catherine is pictured in her Back To Nature Garden in a series of images posted on photo-sharing site Instagram.
The duchess’s woodland wilderness plot forms part of her work on early childhood development.
Speaking ahead of the garden’s unveiling, she said spending time outdoors can help children grow up to become “happy, healthy adults”.

London:

My World:
This week I decided I needed to get a handle on my battle with food. I’ve always said I’m all or nothing, so I can be all good and eat healthily but once I start to eat unhealthy foods it opens the floodgates to be all bad. This wasn’t working, clearly as a good friend pointed out. I’m the heaviest I’ve ever been and as all you forty-somethings know, it gets harder to shift than when you’re a twenty-something. I needed to change my relationship with food once and for all.
I had a think about what would work for me, I’ve done the diets, not interested in the groups…you get the picture. What do I like? What appeals to my brain? Answer: Spreadsheets, love them. So I devised a point system, i get points for exercise, for eating good foods and not eating bad foods and set a weekly, achievable target ( which will increase over time) and so I can eat a bar of chocolate without adding crisps, fizzy drink and takeaway to the mix. This week I’ve smashed my 50 point target for the week and lost a kilo.
Watch this space!
Still working on decorating the spare room, on the final stretch…all that I need to do now is the wallpapering and get a new carpet. Yay! Can’t wait to get my house back in order.
Sunday was spent with my family to celebrate my niece, Beth’s 20th birthday.
Still reading Dreams of Beautiful Whisper by Tanya Jones and loving every minute, just wish I had more reading time.
I’ve got my probation review next week, where has that time gone?

My Word

Still working on the edits which I hope to have finished tonight to ping back to my editor for book five. Eek so much to do, so little time.

Have a great week peeps.

Round up of the week 12 May 2019

May 12, 2019 gibbsdream

World:

Duchess of Sussex and son's feet — The Duchess of Sussex has celebrated her first US Mother’s Day as a parent by posting a picture of her son Archie’s feet.
The SussexRoyal Instagram account shared an image of Meghan, who is American, holding her son’s heel.
In the caption, the account paid tribute to “all mothers today, past, present, mothers-to-be, and those lost but forever remembered”.
While Mother’s Day is in March in the UK, it was marked in the US on Sunday.

London:

Talks are to be held in a bid to avert a strike by London Underground workers over the weekend of the FA Cup Final in a dispute over safety.

Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union are set to walk out for three days on 17 May, the day before the showpiece game at Wembley Stadium between Manchester City and Watford.

Thousands of fans would be hit by any disruption to Tube services.

The union has accused London Underground of cutting train preparations, inspections and maintenance which it says threatens safety – however London Underground denies the claims.

Talks between the two sides will be held at the conciliation service Acas on Friday.

The union is planning to hold a protest at City Hall next week urging London mayor Sadiq Khan to intervene.

The RMT said around 1,000 of its members, working on maintenance and other areas, are involved in the row.

My World:

It’s been an exhausting week, I started it with a scam email threatening to expose my so called ‘naughty’ behaviour to all my friends on social media and on email if I don’t pay money. Needless to say they didn’t get a penny, but don’t worry I can’t see you being bombarded with horrific pics of me in the altogether.
Went to see Conan Grey on Wednesday night with my nephew Joseph and became inspired to write a whole new series, fantasy. I started there and then at the gig lol.
Friday night saw me down the pub with my colleagues from work celebrating Lara’s 30th birthday. It was nice to spend time with them out of work.
The decorating of the spare room is coming along bit by bit, ceiling painted, cracks filled, carpet up.
Reading Dreams of Beautiful Whisper by Tanya Jones.

My writing:
As mentioned above, a new series has been started and set aside so I can pick it up at a later date.
Still working on the edit for Trial & Retribution.

Sunday 8pm I’m going to be doing an author date over on Facebook for the 4th Indie Lit festival. Come and say hi to me.

My review of Seal Mother; A Selkie Tale in Verse by Rose English

May 6, 2019 gibbsdream

Seal Mother: A Selkie Tale in Verse by [English, Rose ] — *****Five Stars*****

I devoured this short story, so skilfully written by an author who I have the utmost respect for. She doesn’t write for the masses, she doesn’t stray into writing what is popular or in fashion. Rose English writes from the heart about things that capture her vivid imagination and she weaves a story so beautiful that it feels as though she has placed her hands around your heart and is squeezing gently.
Seal Mother is a tragic tale of love, betrayal, loss and heart-breaking decisions.
It’s a children book, but don’t let that stop you from reading it as an adult. Let Rose’s poetical verse sweep you into a maelstrom of emotions as you forget your existence for a while and ride the waves with Seal Mother and her emotional journey.
