    As an author, I spend a lot of time sitting at the keyboard, as do many in my and similar professions. Prior to becoming a novelist, I was a long-haul trucker, another sedentary lifestyle. Over the course of many years, the body I once had as an active-duty Marine turned into a blob.So, I decided to do something about it. The change from Marine to blob took decades, so I didn’t even notice it happening. But when I put the aging process in reverse, the changes were very noticeable and fast-coming.This was thanks mostly to Sam Hoster, my co-author and owner of Stay Strong Fitness. I know very little about health and fitness, except that I’m living proof that even in our mid-sixties, it’s not too late to become fit and strong. So, I invited Sam to write this book with me. Through the guidance and tutelage of his trainers and coaches, I went from blob to competitive powerlifter in just over a year.This book isn’t a memoir, but a motivational. Anyone can become stronger and healthier. All you need is guidance and a little push. That’s what we’re here for. Sam provides the guidance and I do the pushing. Kinda like in the gym.

    My Secret Life, the anonymously written erotic memoirs of a Victorian English gentleman who refers to himself simply as 'Walter' is one of the most idiosyncratic and sexually obsessed books ever written. In this vast autobiographical confessional the author recounts, in meticulous detail, his sexual exploits throughout the course of a life devoted entirely to the pursuit of carnal pleasure. Through this compelling exploration of the author's sexual behaviour we are left with a uniquely entertaining insight into life behind the closed doors of Victorian society. My Secret Life is evocative, provocative, sorrowful, suspenseful, obscene, exciting and highly erotic...in it we are privy to the thoughts, emotions and memories of one of the most unusual, unsung and colourful English eccentrics of the Victorian era.
    
    Now, for the first time, the complete unabridged version of this unique text is being narrated and scored by film composer Dominic Crawford Collins as an 'audiofilm' (an audiobook in which the emotional landscape is explored through the music score). Each chapter of My Secret Life will be released at monthly intervals over the next ten or so years culminating in what is likely to become the longest audio book ever to be produced.

    Can a loving relationship endure career setbacks, infidelities, and mismatched sexual desires? This is the question psychologist Bonnie Comfort grapples with as she navigates her unpredictable thirty-year marriage to Hollywood screenwriter Bob, while she provides marital therapy to others. 
    Bob is affectionate, brilliant, and hilarious—but his sexual desires are incompatible with Bonnie’s. Despite her misgivings, she indulges his kinks, which often included photographing her in lingerie. Their Hollywood life is exciting, but eventually Bob’s growing career frustrations lead to his complete sexual shutdown. Tensions rise, and Bob suggests Bonnie have discreet affairs and not tell him. She does just that—but when she confesses her infidelities five years later, his sexual demands become more extreme. When she complies, Bonnie feels shame; when she refuses, as she increasingly does, their fights threaten to tear their marriage apart. 
      
    Bonnie understands the rhythm of disconnection and repair that is common in love relationships. As we follow the journey of her own life, she shares with the reader the nature of intimacy, distance and expectations placed on long-term love. With honesty and vulnerability, she recounts the passionate highs and lows of her own marriage which sadly ends with Bob’s death. As she grieves, Bonnie reflects on her role in their marital struggles and offers profound insights about marriage from her personal and professional experience. Her story lays bare the complexities of love, the ongoing challenges women face in intimate relationships, and how even difficult marriages can find a way to thrive.

    "The Innocents Abroad" by Mark Twain is a groundbreaking and wildly humorous travel narrative that helped establish Twain as one of America's greatest literary voices. Based on his journey through Europe and the Holy Land in the late 1860s, the book offers a sharp, irreverent, and refreshingly honest account of Americans encountering the Old World for the first time.
    
    Traveling with a group of fellow tourists aboard the Quaker City, Twain visits iconic destinations in France, Italy, Greece, Turkey, and the biblical lands of the Middle East. Rather than romanticizing ancient ruins and revered landmarks, he approaches them with skepticism, common sense, and biting wit. Twain pokes fun at exaggerated guidebook claims, pretentious travelers, and the habit of viewing history through uncritical admiration.
    
    Beneath the humor lies a thoughtful critique of cultural snobbery, blind reverence for tradition, and the commercialization of history. Twain contrasts American practicality with European formality and exposes the gap between expectation and reality that travelers often experience. His honest observations challenge readers to question inherited ideas about art, religion, and civilization.
    
    At the same time, The Innocents Abroad captures the excitement and wonder of global travel during an era when international journeys were rare and demanding. Twain's vivid descriptions of landscapes, cities, and people bring the 19th-century world to life, making the book both entertaining and historically valuable.
    
    Witty, bold, and endlessly engaging, The Innocents Abroad remains one of the most popular travel books ever written. It is an essential read for fans of classic literature, travel writing, and Mark Twain's unmatched ability to find humor in the human condition.
