Dream Catcher in the Garden of Stone

 

Cal Walker survives a horrific, fiery crash that should have killed him. By some miracle, he emerges from a six-month coma without a scratch. As he adjusts to his new life, he discovers he has a special gift. At first, he rejects his strange dreams thinking they are a side effect from the coma. He wonders where the dreams come from and why he was chosen to receive them. Are the dreams a gift or a curse, he wonders?

Soon Cal Walker learns that he is the Dream Catcher, walking through his dreams as an invisible, silent witness to stop the evil that exists in the world. In the dreams, he is guided by unseen forces to walk beside a killer. He sees everything he does and listens to all that he says as this vicious killer does his malevolent acts. Together with his brother, Blue, and Detective Kyra Lowe, they work to understand the clues from each dream to stop the Stone Garden Slayer before he kills again. This is no ordinary killer. He is intelligent and shrouded in layers of secrecy. Their time is short and the killer is already on the prowl for his next victim. Can they stop him in time?

Do you feel misunderstood by those around you because they can’t comprehend what you’re going through?

Are you constantly struggling to manage daily life, weighed down by tics and habits you can’t control?

  • Practical coping strategies: Get practical, actionable insights that will help you manage tics, control emotions, and improve daily functioning.
  • Embrace your identity: Understand how TS shapes who you are and how to accept it as a part of your identity rather than something to fight against.
  • Improve relationships: Discover ways to communicate your needs more effectively to friends, family, and colleagues, improving your relationships.
  • Find strength in vulnerability: Learn how to turn your struggles into resilience and use your experiences as a source of inner strength.
  • Awareness and education: This book is a great resource not only for those living with TS but also for loved ones who want to support and understand.
  • Humor in hardship: Learn how to find the lighter moments even in difficult situations, using humor as a coping mechanism.
  • Overcome stigma: Break free from the misconceptions surrounding TS and advocate for yourself with confidence.
  • Empowerment for the future: With newfound knowledge, gain the confidence to take on new challenges, whether it's in school, work, or personal relationships.

And more!

You may wonder, “Will this book really help me or my loved one? Is there any hope for managing TS?

Time Is Ticcing Away” doesn’t promise a miracle cure because one doesn’t exist. What it does offer is hope. Hope that you can rise above the challenges, build resilience, and find joy in the journey. You will find yourself nodding along, saying, “That’s me”, and feeling less alone with every page.

It will give you the guidance you need to better understand yourself or your loved ones, and most importantly, how to navigate life with strength and confidence.

The conversational manner of the book is both compelling and utterly engaging. Sammy Stein instigates heartfelt conversations rich in insight.

It astutely delves into the need for change and how those working daily in the business can help facilitate this. The reader is invited into the dialogue. They may be shocked, or find some of the experiences amusing, but they will come away with a candid, honest understanding of an evolving industry reconciling its past, navigating the present, and looking toward the future. “I am proud to endorse this book as it gives voice to a diverse array of women in the music industry across different generations, genres, and sectors with fascinating insights as well as solutions toward a more inclusive music industry.” Bushra El-Turk, Composer Praise for Sammy Stein: “Best-selling author Sammy Stein stands at the forefront of excellence, commanding international acclaim for her authoritative prose and exceptional journalism.” 8th House Publishing

The Importance of Starting Christmas Book Promotion Early: A Strategic Guide for Authors

  



The Importance of Starting Christmas Book Promotion Early: A Strategic Guide for Authors

As the holiday season approaches, many authors may feel the pressure to promote their books to capitalize on the gift-giving frenzy. Christmas presents the perfect opportunity for book lovers and gift buyers to discover new titles, whether they're shopping for friends, family, or themselves. However, like many things in life, timing is everything. Starting your Christmas book promotion early can make all the difference between a successful holiday season and one that misses its mark. Here's why you should begin your festive marketing efforts well in advance:

1. Beat the Holiday Noise

The Christmas season is notoriously busy in the marketing world. Every brand, author, and creator is competing for attention. Starting early gives your book a chance to be seen before the onslaught of holiday advertisements fills everyone's inbox and social feeds. By the time the holiday rush is in full swing, potential buyers may already have your book in mind because you've been quietly (but consistently) promoting it for weeks.

2. Build Momentum with Time

Promoting a book isn't just about slapping a discount on it and sending out a single email. It takes time to build momentum. Early promotions allow you to create a strategy that unfolds over several weeks. You can introduce teasers, sneak peeks, special holiday editions, or bundled offers to keep interest growing. Slow and steady marketing helps your book stay top of mind as Christmas approaches, giving it the best chance to become a sought-after gift.

3. More Time for Book Reviews and Word of Mouth

If you start your Christmas promotions early, you give readers the chance to discover, read, and review your book before the season is in full swing. Positive reviews and word-of-mouth recommendations can be your best marketing tools, but they take time to build. Reaching out to book bloggers, influencers, and early readers in October or November ensures that your book will have reviews circulating by the time shoppers start making their lists.

4. Leverage Special Holiday Offers

Holiday marketing often includes special deals like discounts, limited-time offers, or exclusive content. Starting early allows you to plan and spread these promotions out to create sustained interest in your book. Rather than running one last-minute holiday sale, you can entice readers with pre-Christmas offers like Black Friday or Cyber Monday deals, as well as more niche promotions like "12 Days of Christmas" bundles.

5. Create Buzz with Holiday-Themed Content

When you start your promotion early, you have more time to engage readers with holiday-themed content. Whether it's a festive short story based on your book, a holiday reading guide, or a giveaway that ties into the Christmas spirit, early promotions give you time to create content that connects with the season. You can also align your social media campaigns, blogs, and email newsletters with the holiday vibe to create a warm and inviting atmosphere for your audience.

6. Take Advantage of Media and Press Opportunities

Journalists and media outlets start looking for holiday-related content and recommendations as early as September and October. If you want your book featured in holiday gift guides, interviews, or podcasts, you need to get your pitches out early. By getting ahead of the game, you increase the chances of your book being highlighted in these valuable spots, reaching readers who may not have discovered it otherwise.

7. Give Yourself Time to Plan and Adjust

Promoting a book during the holidays can be overwhelming, especially if you're juggling other responsibilities like writing your next project. Starting early gives you the time and flexibility to plan your campaigns, test different strategies, and adjust as needed. You won't feel the same pressure to rush through everything, and your promotions will likely be more effective as a result.

8. Extend the Shopping Season

Not everyone waits until Christmas Eve to buy gifts (though some do). Many people start shopping for the holidays as early as October. Early promotion means your book will be visible to these early-bird shoppers, who often appreciate getting their holiday lists checked off in advance. By starting early, you're effectively extending the holiday shopping season for your book and increasing its chances of being purchased.

9. Stay Ahead of Shipping Delays

With the rise of online shopping, shipping delays during the holiday season have become a common problem. Starting your promotion early encourages readers to purchase your book before the shipping window gets tight. This is especially important if you're offering signed copies or special editions that may take longer to fulfill.

10. Less Stress for You

Finally, starting early means less stress for you as an author. By spacing out your promotions and marketing efforts, you can avoid the last-minute scramble that often accompanies holiday sales. You'll have time to refine your messaging, test different ads, and ensure that everything is running smoothly without the pressure of a looming deadline.

Conclusion: Don't Wait, Start Today

The holiday season is a golden opportunity for authors to showcase their books, but only if you're prepared. By starting your Christmas book promotion early, you'll avoid the chaos of the holiday rush, build meaningful engagement with your audience, and give your book the best chance to become a Christmas bestseller. So don’t wait—start planning your promotions today and set yourself up for a successful holiday season!
