Athena in The Rathole (Biography)
Athena is born at the wrong time, to the wrong parents, and in the wrong country. Her parents are Greek immigrants trying to find their way in America. Athena bounces between two countries, two cultures, eating Greek eyeball stew and lamb’s brain on the one hand, and ice cream cones with sprinkles on the other.
Humorously told, Athena must survive her vicious mother, a shaming nun, bullying classmates, and an abusive babysitter. Her mother blames Athena for the family’s troubles and Athena comforts herself by sneaking Greek delicacies. In Greek culture you’re supposed to be pretty and skinny, basically perfect. She is neither of these things. Things go from bad to worse and Athena is sent away to a school for disturbed kids.
Athena’s only hope is to break free from her mother’s explosive volatility and smothering vice grip. She finds support along the way from an unlikely lot of total strangers, including a Portuguese family, an art teacher, a psychic granny, gang members, and a hooker. Without them Athena doesn’t stand a chance. But can she find her way before her mother destroys her? $2.99 on Kindle

First Steps to Fly Fishing: The 1924 Classic Updated for Today
Fishing with the basics: a rod, a reel, some line, and an artificial “fly” that imitates a fish’s prey is the very definition of fly fishing. Today’s technology has no doubt improved the quality and durability of the equipment and materials of fly fishing, and the basics of the art of fly fishing have remained largely the same.
In 1924, Michael Temple wrote what for decades was the ‘bible’ on learning how to fly fish: “First Steps in Fly Fishing.” Now Cresting Wave Publishing has updated this classic for the 2020s. With an introduction by noted fly fishing expert and author Joshua Bergan and additional material from Editor Kris Neely. $2.99 on Kindle.

Rational Empathy
Since time immemorial, humanity has passionately debated over the ideas of right and wrong, good and evil. Is morality a matter of personal opinion? Is it something for an authority to decide for the rest of us? The answer is neither: Morality is demonstrated to be an objective truth, derived through pure logic. The mind, long believed to be outside the domain of objective truth, settles this debate in an unusual manner. $0.99 on Kindle.

A note from the author:
I, too, had an excruciating 2020. To begin with, including COVID taking my storyteller’s (narrator) soul to heaven. I was trapped in a bottle at beginning of the year, questioning my identity. But, I took that challenge as an opportunity by writing through my own metaphorical coke bottle. When the darkness rolled in, through thick and thin, an amazing community was there for me with helping hands.
Within a few months, over 10,000 people read The Gods Must Be Crazy in over a dozen countries, offering ~100 rave reviews (Amazon + GoodReads), and even achieved the #1 bestseller rank in many Amazon categories! Above all, I donate the royalty from this book for a greater purpose to Mother Teresa Mission (Missionaries of Charity). As a token of gratitude, I am making the book free as a New Year’s GIFT.

Free: A New Way of Life
Globalization can kill you. Is that an exaggeration?! Not at all.
COVID-19 was completely caused by globalization, because, with so much international travel, especially by planes, infectious diseases can spread fast and far. The next pandemic might be far worse than COVID-19.
In the past, without planes, the Black Death killed up to 60% of the population of Europe! That’s hundreds of times more than COVID-19! Imagine what it would be like to have a new virus similar to the Black Death, but with planes and globalization… This means death for you and your family, have no doubt.
This book explains how you can protect yourself and those you love, and not only from infectious diseases. If you act, YOU WILL PROUDLY BE THE SOLUTION TO THE MANY CRISES our deeply mad and unhealthy civilization is facing:
• You can be the solution to the cycle of economic crises where the rich get richer, the poor get poorer, banks steal from us, and inequality grows greater, while so many don’t even have decent food or healthcare…
• You can be the solution to the ecological crisis, including climate change! We pollute the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe… Climate change has started to kill hundreds of thousands through heat, flooding, hurricanes, a lack of food and water, which can lead to wars… The worst-case scenario could lead to human extinction, as it did 250 million years ago, when 96% of species died because of climate change from volcanoes’ CO2 emissions.
• You can be the solution to other crises: police violence, overpopulation…
• You can be the solution to political corruption. Politicians pretend to care about what you think to get elected, but then really only care about what the richest push them to do through lobbying. Also, they almost started a nuclear war without our authorization! We live in a dangerous, false democracy…
There is an alternative system in which you can really be the solution to all these crises: future pandemics like COVID-19, climate change, economic crises… It sounds impossible? This book proves that it is possible based on referenced science and facts.
Protect Yourself and Those You Love. Be the Solution. Free on Kindle

Free: Anti-Aging Medicine: How We Can Extend Lifespan and Live Longer and Healthier Lives
Why do we age? Why is it that there is still no wide scientific agreement on even the fundamental nature of aging? Is aging treatable? What is the future of anti-aging medicine?
Goldsmith takes us on a fascinating tour of the history of biological aging theories, the current status, and present efforts toward developing treatments for extending lifespan and generally delaying aging.
Arguments about the nature of aging (now extending for more than a century) are actually arguments over obscure details of evolution theory. Some of these details suggest that we can find treatments for individual symptoms of aging like cancer and heart disease but that aging itself is an untreatable condition, an inescapable fact of life. Medicine as we know it is largely based on this idea.
However, recent discoveries especially in genetics now strongly show that aging is itself a treatable condition (like a disease) and even suggest ways in which aging can be delayed. Free on Kindle.
