Summary

Pearl, Jan and Linda are enjoying a long-awaited break on the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, when a surprise visitor turns up. They haven't seen Shelley for years, and their retreat becomes a reunion – and pretty soon, a riot.
But a lot has changed since they were last together and, cut off from the mainland, tensions rise with the tide. As the sky darkens, the island grows restless with echoes of the past. Will the four still be friends when dawn breaks?
Following the smash hits Ladies' Day and Ladies Down Under, Amanda Whittington's Ladies Unleashed is the third play in her Ladies Trilogy. A moving comedy about friendship, growing older and living for today, it was first performed at Hull Truck Theatre in September 2022, directed by Mark Babych.
The Ladies are back, and amateur theatre companies – as well as their audiences – are sure to delight in their riotous exploits.
Available since: 10/27/2022.
Print length: 104 pages.

    Transform your acting performance by mastering the authentic German accent. Whether you're preparing for a role or expanding your skillset, learning how to deliver a natural German-accented English can set you apart in auditions and on set. This immersive audio course guides you step by step, helping you sound confident, precise, and believable — without slipping into stereotypes. 
    You'll learn how the German language shapes sound, rhythm, and melody, giving your speech a distinctive yet natural quality. The course breaks down the essential elements of the accent, from crisp consonant shifts to the subtle inflections that make a character feel alive. With carefully designed listening and speaking exercises, you'll train your ear and voice simultaneously, building your skills from the ground up. 
    This method goes beyond surface-level imitation. You'll explore how native German speakers structure their sentences and how those patterns influence the way they speak English. By understanding the accent from the inside out, you'll be able to deliver performances that feel authentic and fully embodied — not just performed. 
    Every lesson is designed with actors in mind, focusing on practical tools that translate directly to your craft. Dialogue drills and practice scripts help you apply what you've learned in context, so you can step into any role with confidence. The flexible audio format fits seamlessly into your routine, letting you practice whenever and wherever you want. 
    With the right training, a German accent becomes more than just a voice — it becomes a doorway into character. Mastering this skill will give you the edge to stand out and bring layered, believable performances to life.

    Anyone who has visited Sedona, in the high desert of Arizona, will know that it is one of the most beautiful townships in the world. I am fortunate to live there. My home is nestled midst spectacular scenery, with views of red rocks and ancient vortexes. It is the perfect environment to inspire a poet, and hence the title of this book, Desert of Inspiration. Many of these poems were written while I was out on my daily hikes. 
    The poems are in the exact chronological order that they were written. I averaged writing more than one poem a week over a two year period. You can follow my path of inspiration and imagination during this time. I take you through the four seasons of each year. You will find deep, thoughtful poems; poems of fantasy, and humorous poems, as you explore my magical world. I am a professional magician, but also have a strong connection with the magic and miracles of nature. I was born in Northumberland, England, the son of an Anglican clergyman. As a child, I lived in vicarages with large gardens, and always enjoyed outside activities such as climbing trees, playing amongst wildflowers, and creating rock gardens. I felt my spirit was in tune with Mother Earth and the elementals. During these early years, I was also performing magic tricks and writing poetry. 
    The last two poems were written in March 2020, when planet Earth was in a turbulent time with the pandemic known as COVID-19. How this was all going to play out was unclear when the book was published, but we were certainly going through times of great change. I am hopeful that many good lessons were learned by humanity from this experience. There are powerful, positive, and profound messages hidden within these chapters. By inviting my listeners to look inward, I hope to make them see their true light, where there often appears to be only darkness and shadows. Enjoy the journey!

    Dear listener, I bare you my heart like an olive tree bares its fruit in the Levant sun. 
    Written in both North Levantine Arabic and English, this is a poetry book on love as I have experienced it. I wrote it with a vision, an image of myself being back on the olive field where my late grandfather used to harvest ripe olives whilst I sat between the rocks and the olive trees.

    Ascension is a channeled poetry book about finding freedom so that you can realize your highest potential in this lifetime.  
    This poetry book is for those who are ready to liberate their soul and find complete freedom. 
    How can I thank 
    All these teachers of mine 
    For sharing with me 
    A love that is divine 
    So that I could find 
    My inner light 
    Trust myself 
    Learn to shine bright 
    And radiate love 
    To all that I meet 
    To the people of Earth 
    I bow at your feet 
    So that I may discover 
    The Most High 
    Trust the guidance 
    And let myself fly 
    To the land beyond 
    That which we know 
    An infinite space 
    To learn and grow 
    This channeled poetry book was inspired by my time living at an ashram receiving teachings from Shiva, the Archangels and Ascended Masters, and the Divine Mother. 
    If you’re on the path to creating more freedom, love, and joy in your life, Ascension The Path To Liberation will guide you on your journey to liberate your soul!
