Blood, Sweat and Tears: The Overseas Basketball Experience is a detailed guide for people who dream about becoming professional basketball players. The recipe for success is a mix of many factors: talent and skills are important, but there are many other ingredients that make somebody a professional player. First of all, attitude and motivation are the driving forces to get through hard times, endless training and failures. The motto is: never give up! "Skill is developed through hours of practice", "hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard", the author says. So, work hard and do it even when you don't feel like doing it. That is what makes you a successful person. Working hard to reach your goals in life is a rule valid for any scope, not just sport. Learn from any situation or person you meet; be humble and take advantage of opportunities given to you. Don't be afraid of asking for help, show your dedication and how far you are willing to go. Accept other cultures' ways of doing things if you play abroad. Golden rules that will guide you through this sport where it is hard to emerge.Heath Sheridan is an American Professional Basketball Player in Eastern Europe.

"Tight, lyrical, linguistically muscular, the poems he sent me grabbed the attention. Now, his first collection, Reading the Water, has just appeared and I'm delighted to see it's a stunning, well-crafted book.Reading the Water is a richly woven collection which capably showcases Schimmel's love of language, symbolism and poetic craft".Siobhan Harvey - Editor of Takahe Magazine at the time of the review.Paul Schimmel's debut collection is a quietly stunning achievement. These carefully crafted poems talk about our relationship to the natural world. They go beyond invention into discovery; on one hand paying scrupulous attention to what we can read in the landscapes of nature, and on the other going deeper into the often mysterious landscapes of the human heart.Michael Harlow - Recipient of the New Zealand Prime Minister's award for poetry in 2018.Praise for 'Sigmund Freud's Discovery of Psychoanalysis: conquistador and thinker' Routledge UK, 2014."So he has taken on a challenge [in writing yet another book on Freud] and it is one he succeeds in meeting.What is distinctive is Schimmel's generous, intelligent engagement with Freud's intellectual and emotional struggles..."From Humphrey Morris's review in: Journal of The American Psychoanalytic Association.

He has had poetry published in various, mainly New Zealand, literary magazines, a book of poems in 2016, and a psychobiographical study 'Sigmund Freud's discovery of psychoanalysis: conquistador and thinker', published by Routledge UK, in 2014. He has always been a keen fisherman, as witnessed by this text.

In Adventures of an Au Pair, the author takes the reader on a journey to feel a whirlwind of sensations and engage emotionally to discover where social relations create deep interconnections. Viewed through the author's lens, it's a story of generational changes throughout which nostalgia merges with hope and zest for life. Based on the real life of the author born in ex-Yugoslavia, this autobiography depicts very well the divergence and the struggles of a country that has journeyed through communism and has experienced divisions in comparison to the democratic society of the United Kingdom and other nearby countries. Within its cover, Family represents a column with an unusual background. Friendship marks a pillar to rely on. Music and its evolution in technology (and those artists who made its history) function as background and soundtrack. A book that deserves to be read. Its sense of humour permeates throughout, making the narrative smooth, pleasant and compelling - a real treasure to dip into. Jonnathan South Born in the Seventies, in a country at the time called Yugoslavia, the author spent his childhood witnessing the communistic era of President Tito, with all the contradictions of a country whose boundaries (partially Balkan-called) historically have been widely disputed. When he decided to move to the UK, he was in his twenties and started to work as a male au pair, obtaining the Cambridge Certificate of Proficiency in English. After writing for around thirty years for his own pleasure, in 2020, he published his first book, Morality As It Stands. His first-hand experience in different societies has exposed him to different ideologies of governance which have formed him as a person with a wider-lensed outlook on life. This book is the witty and emotionally provoking description of part of this adventurous and unconventional life.
