schoolgrpLynne Dempsey is an Amazon best-selling children’s author of the books, TAKE THE DOG OUT! and NUMBERS! She is also a Readers’ Favorite Book Award Finalist and Global Ebook Awards Nominee.

Lynne’s goal is to make kids giggle while they learn. As a mother of two, she knows it can be difficult to get children to read. Sometimes, they get frustrated.

cover - w boneweb4TAKE THE DOG OUT! is a picture book intended to build a child’s reading confidence. It has fun illustrations, repetitive text, and sight words. In addition to reading the story, a child can find hidden dog bones, count the barks, and look for something red on every page. Take the Dog Out! is a humorous picture book about a family who is too busy to take their dog outside. When the family ignores the barks, baking pans fly through the air, coffee splashes on the carpet, and Grandma gets wrapped in a cloud of toilet paper. Eventually, the family decides a walk outside is what they ALL need. (At the moment, TAKE THE DOG OUT! is Amazon’s #1 children’s pet books. It has been #1 for more than 45 days. It has also been #1 on Amazon’s best sellers list for Basic Concepts, Early Learning, Dogs, and Words.)

new cover - numbers!webpage3NUMBERS! is the second book in the Take the Dog Out series. In this book, children can help Coco and her neighbourhood friends count from zero to ten and back down to zero. Along the way, they add, subtract, and count the dog bones. NUMBERS! has also been on Amazon’s best sellers lists.

On a more personal note, Lynne is a former newspaper correspondent and a graphic designer. Her family includes a wonderful husband, two fabulous children, and a dog named Coconut. Coco is the inspiration for the Take the Dog Out! series. Coco loves going for walks!

P14/33b “LESSONS Crime, Games & Pain”

 Positive Living Vibrations with Sara Troy and her guest Scott Magri. Aired August 19th/14 on

10303455_716658348372226_4854536327116422560_nEvery so often a book of powerful honesty comes along to jog us out of our comfortable existence. Lessons is such a book. Author Scott Magri has lived the painful life of drugs, crime and physical brutality, and Lessons tells that story in his own words. He pulls no punches in the telling of this story, particularly when it comes to his own failings, but he firmly believes that the lessons he has learned so far in this lifetime were meant to be learned so that he might fulfil a higher purpose. Lessons chronicles Scott Magri’s forty-four years on this planet, the lessons he’s learned along the way, and his real purpose for being. His greatest hope is that his story will spark in others a desire to examine their own life in order to discover their own true purpose.

Scott Magri was born in Vancouver, British Columbia, now lives in Pitt Meadows, B.C. His story tells of a life of drugs, crime and physical brutality that began as a bullied youngster. He tells his story in his own words, so don’t expect great prose. He tells of the lessons that he has learned and the impact they have had on him. Now, at 44, and out of that life, he is looking forward to a purposeful future and hopes others will read what can happen in this crazy world that is called ‘life’. A must read: “LESSONS Crime, Games & Pain”

Scott says “When I made the decision to write this book, I was going to dig down deep and tell every single thing in hopes that it would help other people,” says Magri.

download (1)“If I told only half of it, it wouldn’t do what it’s supposed to do.”

Magri decided to start writing after his third suicide attempt.

“I felt my body was somewhere else. There was a message there,” he says.

Magri bought a computer and began typing the next day.

As soon as he started writing, he got chills and goosebumps. It was the start of his catharsis.

Magri soon used began using words as a way to deal with his demons brought on by years of drug abuse, criminal activity, broken relationships and aggression.

Scott now works with the police in helping kids prevent living a life or crime drugs and fear, he is an exemplary example of how life can be turned around when we decide to embrace our true value and not feed the fear hate or greed. He is open honest and in action to live a life of truth and purpose and helps others to leave crime behind. He is in resurrecting an old sanctuary called the Katzie Slough so that others may find peace and harmony in a sacred spot.

P14/29b The Holy Universe and You.

Originally Aired July 22nd to 28th on Positive Living Vibrations with Sara Troy and her guest David Christopher. 

holy

David Christopher is an award-winning author and teacher of the “new story,” a story that integrates the science of the 20th and 21st centuries with a spiritual sensibility toward the creation of the Universe.

DavidChristopher-Landsc1-Bridge small 600x600He became intrigued with this story over 15 years ago. But as he dove deeper into this new worldview, he felt something was missing. He missed the poetry. He missed the lyricism of the liturgy and the sound of the scriptures. He wanted more. He wanted a story that also felt like the story given to him in his youth.

This led him to write The Holy Universe: A New Story of Creation for the Heart, Soul and Spirit, which just recently won the Silver in the Nautilus Book Awards for Religion and Spirituality. David brings life to the scientific study of the Universe, transforming it into a lyrical narrative of the story of Creation.

Leaving behind corporate and airline careers, David has pursued his passion for exploring the answers to humanity’s questions about our place in the Universe, bringing forth this new story for our turbulent times.

The Holy Universe front cover w_award The dialogues within The Holy Universe are an outgrowth of 15 years of David’s delving into the works of transformational scientists, philosophers, and theologians, along with his work with the Pachamama Alliance’s Awakening the Dreamer, Changing the Dream Symposium.

He wrote the book in part for people like him who call themselves “spiritual but not religious,” who are trying to make sense of the craziness going on in the world and who seek a meaningful path through the global crises we collectively face.
