Books on the way

5/22/2014

Just completed the draft manuscript for my third book for Arcturus Publishing in London. These books are my illustrated versions of Allen Carr's bestsellers 'The Easyway to Stop Smoking' and 'The Easyway for Women to Stop Smoking'. This new one is 'The Easyway to Control Your Drinking' and will probably hit the shelves by the end of the year.

I am also busy working on my own next title and I'm tremendously excited by this book, as it focuses on the aspect of my work which has been the turning point for many people who have done my workshops and involves learning to 'parent' yourself in times of crisis.

Too often, we look to others to provide us with appreciation, attention, support and comfort, yet deprive our own selves of these things. Not only this but when your inner child is not being nourished, he or she can create real havoc in your life. They'll do ANYTHING to get attention, including self sabotage! So, if things are going whacky in your life, looking within is the ONLY place to start

I am currently 3/4 of the way through the initial submission of 'Parenting Little IT - How to Heal the Little Kid who is Sabotaging Big You'. A submission involves sending off two or three sample chapters and an overview to the publishers and then crossing your fingers that they accept it! If not, I will do it as an ebook. This one is just too important to let pass by!

Stay tuned!

The Arrival of Living with IT Mark II

Delighted to announce that the all-new revised Living with IT  has just been released by HarperCollins to celebrate 20 fabulous years in print!

I can't tell you how many wonderful messages I have received from readers over the years telling me that this little book has been their 'anxiety bible' and for some, has even changed their life.

When I think of the ordeal that preceded my writing of this book and the others that followed, I find I hardly recognise the person that I was back then; a message I hope conveys hope to those who are thinking that their life is 'over' because they are experiencing anxiety. It's not! It will take a bit of work but hey, here I am, living proof! Not only is my life not over but I am better than ever because I went through that experience.

Very recently I received a lovely message from a reader whose elderly father was arriving from overseas in a matter of days. She was very concerned for him because he was experiencing severe anxiety and depression - crying, not sleeping, hardly eating and very distraught. She showed him her copy of Living with IT  which he initially refused to look at but she encouraged him to just read a few pages and if he thought it was rubbish, throw it away Before long, he was halfway through the book and she sent me a photo she had taken secretly of him with his nose buried in it and sent it to me. That night, he slept for the first time in weeks, he stopped crying and was much more settled.

The next day, I received another photo of her dad holding the book and beaming at the camera. Now, it's things like this that make it all worthwhile!

Details of both the original and 20th Anniversary editions of Living with IT are on the 'Books' page of this site where you can order your own copy. But here's a warning - never lend it out or you'll never see it again ! :)
