It is Time We Truly Know Why Jesus Wept at The Grave of Lazarus

About the Book
It is written in the Holy Bible “Jesus Wept” but people, over the years, have failed to ask, why “Jesus wept” would be the shortest verse of the Holy Bible. What is the significance of the verse? Why did Jesus weep at the grave of Lazarus? Why would Jesus weep over Lazarus even when he knew that Lazarus would live again?
“It is Time We Truly Know Why Jesus Wept” is a quest to find out why Jesus wept. The answers found from the mysterious quest were more difficult than the quest itself. This book is inspirational, motivational, and some people will find it mystical.

Meet Kisha Townsend, author of "Just a Little Bit More"
|
Brooklyn New York native, Kisha Townsend, who goes by the pseudonym of EroticKookie, began writing at an early age. Poetry, as her first passion, allowed her to express herself in a way that only this art form would.
As she grew older, Kisha noticed that adding just the right touch of spice awakened the senses, mind, body, soul and spirit. After branching off and writing short stories, Kisha began creating stories that embraced romance sexuality, sensuality, and fantasy infused characters which fertilized the seed that birthed EroticKookie. Encouraging others to dream with their eyes open, Kisha believes that dreaming with your eyes closed will only allow it to disappear within the blink of an eye. Author EroticKookie currently lives in Wylie, TX and is married with two children. |

Quality Matters in the Long Run
In order to be a successful self-published author one must face reality. A self- published author bears the cost of every aspect of their career. As a self-published author I look at the expenses as an investment. Publishing books is a business and should be treated as such. Some authors do and some don’t. I believe in quality over quantity. There is no rush to publish a book!
One of the most costly expenses is editing. Depending on the edit and the type of edit, editing may cost between $200-$3,000. Proofreading is a part of editing but a manuscript needs more than that. Seeing that editing is so expensive some people skip this step and self- edit. That is not a good idea especially when editors don’t even edit their own work! (keep reading) |

UBAWA Founder Meets Neffeteria Pugh, author of "The Price I Paid"
Neffeteria Pugh, better known as “Neffe” has seen and done it all. Most people remember her as the co-star from the hit reality TV show, “Keyshia Cole – The Way It Is” where she stripped herself bare and revealed some of her deepest and most shameful secrets from her past failed marriage. “We had threesomes… we broke ALL the vowels” Neffe openly admits in an episode from the show. “But the first step to change is realizing that you need to change right? Change is good,” Neffe states after leaving behind the drama and mistakes of her past and moving to the city of Atlanta, GA to reconnect and live with her sister and R&B star, Keyshia Cole. Neffe adds, “Moving to Atlanta was the best thing that could have happened to me. I was able to get away from all of the stuff that kept bringing me down, down, down.”
Although her move to Atlanta offered a ray of hope and the promise of a better future, Neffe still found herself repeating the same mistakes and experiencing the same cycle of alcohol abuse and struggling to survive. In her new book, “The Price I Paid,” she takes you on a behind the scenes look into what her life was like when the cameras were not rolling. I had a chance to meet and talk to Neffe at her book release party at Tag’s Boutique in downtown Atlanta over the weekend and here’s what she had to say:
“People think that somehow being on TV is going to make you famous. But baby, let me tell you, that is not always the case. People think they know me, but they have no idea. I’ve read the blogs and heard the rumors about me and my sister not getting along and I just want to set things straight that this NOT true. God apparently has her going down one path and has me going down another. That’s all.”
Despite the rumors and the mistakes she has made in her past, Neffe still is determined to win. When asked what her plans are for the future, she shared that she wanted to start her own reality TV show and become an actor.
Life teaches us many lessons every day. The thing I admire most about Neffe is her will to fight and overcome any obstacles that may stand in her way. Her life is such an inspiration to anyone who is striving hard to succeed and achieve their dreams. If you believe in yourself and work hard at whatever you set in your heart to do, you will succeed. Your destiny is yours. No one can take it away from you. (view photo album)
