Live from Las Vegas...It's the Aspects of Writing Radio Show

Earlier today I had the pleasure of being a guest on the Aspects of Writing Radio Show, hosted by James Kelly. Today's show focused on importance of securing the right public relations specialist to market your book. The other guests were veteran PR gurus Travis Shortt and Shelley Bruner. Travis Shortt is a former radio personality and co-founder of Aspyr Communications, and Shelley is a former Fox 5 news anchor and currently the Director of Advertising and Public Relations at David Saxe Productions. With their years of experience, they have forgotten more than most of us will ever learn about wooing the media. They provided a wealth of inside tips on what authors need to do, not only to sell their current book, but to brand themselves, and it was indeed a pleasure to speak with them.

This is my second time on the show, and it was even more enjoyable than the first. James Kelly is a wonderful host. With his "round table" platform and conversational interviewing style, he allows for a true exchange of ideas. A number of WITS clients, including comedian Melanie Vare and mystic Dr. Steve Brannon, have been guests, as well as award-winning novelist Michael Loyd Gray. You can listen today's show, as well as archived episodes, by clicking on the link above. Aspects of Writing airs live, every other Tuesday, at 2pm PDT.

In addition, to hosting several radio shows, James Kelly is also the author of two novels. The second, Alien Transcripts: Creating God, is now available for download on Amazon.

A Book to Help Spiritual Seekers Understand End Times

Metaphysical author, Yvonne Perry releases a book to help mystical seekers manage symptoms of rapid spiritual growth and understand the end of the Piscean Age.

After more than a year of success with her groundbreaking and best-selling book, Whose Stuff Is This? ~ Finding Freedom from the Thoughts, Feelings, and Energy of Those Around You (http://whosestuffisthis.com), Yvonne Perry is releasing a follow-up book to help those who are experiencing physical and emotional symptoms during the current planetary awakening as we enter the Age of Aquarius.

If you have been experiencing strange body sensations, headaches, fatigue, depression, panic/anxiety attacks, hot flashes, increased emotional responses, or have noticed that your psychic abilities are opening up, you may be one of the millions of people who are spiritually growing faster than your physical body can tolerate. What you are experiencing is a normal response to spiritual changes. These are known as ascension symptoms, which also include changes in careers, sleep patterns, and dietary preferences.

In this time of social, economic, and political unrest many people are in crisis, strapped with fear, and stressed to the limit. Some have lost jobs and financial security; there’s an upheaval in government systems worldwide; the global economy could topple in a heartbeat; the religious institutions we once looked to for guidance are wrought with deceit; our youth are rioting; health issues are escalating; and relationships are failing. Why does our world seem to be going crazy? Is this the prophesied end of time?

Undoubtedly, we are living in a crucial time in world and cosmic history. Perry’s book explains what is going on in the universe, our planet, and with ourselves as we are encountering a vibrational increase, which is creating tsunamis, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, global warming, and volcanic activity throughout the Earth. Addressing many end-time prophecies, Perry concludes that the next phase of human development depends upon what is held in our individual and collective minds; for it is there that we co-create our reality.

“Everything is being shaken from within,” says Yvonne Perry, the author of a new book titled Shifting into Purer Consciousness ~ Integrating Spiritual Transformation with the Human Experience. “It may feel or look bad during the process, but patriarchal world systems and our old way of thinking are breaking down in order for us to create something new. A lot of what we are experiencing is our unresolved personal issues and cellular memory being pushed up and out as the ‘separation mindset’ comes to the surface to be healed.”

“Shifting into Purer Consciousness is astonishing in its breadth and depth of knowledge in what it means to be a spirit being in human form at this particular time,” says Steve Brannon, an interfaith spiritual minister. “Never will we find as truthful and candid a discussion of the human condition and ascension consciousness. One must admire the freedom with which the myriad of spiritual experiences and paths to a purer consciousness are described. Within these pages, we discover vital guidance to help us in finding our way. For religions fail us but God provides our spiritual food in grace and abundance.” Brannon is the author of The Two Agreements: A Good News Story for Our Time.

Yvonne’s book will be launched with a virtual tour in June. You are cordially invited to come along with the author as she posts audio/video clips, written and recorded interviews, book excerpts, and content-rich articles on more than twenty blogs. The virtual tour will be followed by an ascension training telesummit in July 2012. Topics to be addressed in this telesummit include global awakening, oneness, near-death and spiritually-transforming experiences, walk-ins/soul exchanges, working with angels and ascended masters, immortality, DNA restructuring, the light body, merkabah, integrating cosmic frequencies, and managing ascension symptoms. See http://integratingfrequencies.blogspot.com/p/ascension-training-telesummit.html for details about the tour and training sessions.

Empaths Shifting into 2012: A Telesummit to Help Energy-sensitive People Understand Their Spiritual Role on Earth

Two empathic authors, Yvonne Perry and Dr. Caron Goode, have organized an event offering eight hours of free training for people who are emotionally oversensitive.

The excitement is building for a free teleconference to kick off the grand opening of Live-Spirit.com and empower people to walk in oneness as they help facilitate humanity's shift into higher consciousness. The purpose of this telesummit is to help people understand the science of the predicted 2012 shift already in progress, and how this is affecting all people—especially empaths.

Each of the four calls (September 6, 13, 20, & 27) in this telesummit will teach participants how to ground and center their energy, obtain clarity, and enact self-care while assisting in the Earth's transformation. Each content-rich call will last about two hours in order to allow two speakers to make presentations and listeners to ask questions.

There will be a panel of eight experts (two each week) who will speak about how catastrophic world events are affecting lightworkers and empaths and what to expect as 2012 draws nigh. We won't leave you wondering what to do about the grief and discomfort you are experiencing; we will give you tips for getting free from detrimental energy and staying joyfully clear as you follow your spiritual path.

February Podcasts Offer Opportunity for Self-Reflection and Soul Searching

Writers in the Sky February Podcasts to Feature Tools to Put Your Soul on the Page and Three Works of Fiction that Challenge Our Spiritual and Cultural Beliefs

Nashville, TN, January 29, 2010 – The Writers in the Sky podcast enters this traditional month of love by presenting interviews that focus on the beauty that exists within our own souls as well as in the connection we find with spirits beyond our world. February starts with a book that teaches its readers how to develop the creativity and wisdom offered by our souls through writing. The month continues with a novel that addresses the difficult issues of cultural identity and stereotypes through the emotional story of one family. The following week brings an emotionally raw look at one woman’s re-evaluation of the strengths of her spiritual beliefs. The month comes to a close with a work of fiction that reveals the very real impact of charismatic personalities on our lives.

On February 5, Janet Conner will be sharing her book, Writing Down Your Soul, when podcast host Yvonne Perry interviews her about the mysterious process of tapping into the higher wisdom of your soul through writing. This is more than journaling. It's not automatic writing; it's something totally different. Learn how to find out what your soul and divine guidance is trying to share with you. Janet will share how to write from theta brain waves that support creativity rather than beta waves associated with stress (where many people live their daily lives).

Yvonne Perry will interview Maxine Thompson on February 12 about her new novel Hostage of Lies, which is published by Urban Soul. The story is a vivid portrait of Reverend Godbolt's family and his forebears. The family's secrets set the stage for a profound and provocative debate about black identity and destiny in America's past and present. The novel deals with the issue of adoption which often runs counter to African American culture due to the history of children being sold away from their mothers.

The podcast series continues on February 19 when Sarah Moore welcomes author Wilson Awasu as he discusses his new book Kim’s Confessions. In this novel, the title character approaches her church and her faith with a sense of entitlement. She presents a long family history and active involvement in her congregation as her defenses for not questioning the strength of her relationship with God. However, her entire belief system is changed when she reluctantly attends a seminar called “Radical Growth.”

On February 26, Barbara Fifield will be joining the podcast for an interview about Lucifer Rising. This new release tells the story of a female reporter who profiles a local religious cult leader and ends up being drawn into a relationship with him. Even when she learns of his history of violence and adultery, she cannot seem to escape. Lucifer Rising combines aspects of a thriller, romance, and exploration of the paranormal. During the interview, Ms. Fifield will share how her previous profession contributed to the writing of her new book, why she wanted to tackle the controversial issue of cults, and what she has planned next for her readers.

“I am so excited to have a month of interviews in which we can focus on issues of spirituality and the power of examining the potential within our own souls,” shares Yvonne Perry, owner of Writers in the Sky Creative Writing Services, which produces the podcast. “I hope that our listeners find something during our February interviews that will stay with them long after the month is over.”

About Writers in the Sky: Writers in the Sky blog, podcast, and newsletter is a three-fold production filled with information about writing, publishing, and book publicity created by Yvonne Perry as part of Writers in the Sky Creative Writing Services.

Learn to Do Your Own Virtual Book Tour by Following Yvonne Perry on Hers

Author teaches other authors as she tours the Internet from November 20 to December 20.

Nashville, TN—Yvonne Perry is doing more than promote her new book as she travels from blog to blog during her virtual book tour for The Sid Series. She is taking along 2,650 Twitter followers and those who are subscribed to her RSS feed (http://feeds.feedburner.com/OnlinePromotionMadeEasy) for her blog, Online Promotion Made Easy, in order to demonstrate how a virtual book tour works.

She began by posting an article to her blog and inviting her Twitter followers to come and see what her new book is all about. Each book in her children’s book of holistic (body, mind, spirit) stories teaches skills such as following inner guidance, being true to one’s self, or overcoming fear. Modeled after the lessons Yvonne's grandson, Sidney, these are great for the classroom, young readers, or toddlers being nurtured at home. But they are also great for kids who are showing spiritual intellect and psychic gifts. http://thesidseries.com/

Then, she began posting information about what a blog tour is and asking people to participate as host “homes” for her progressive “dinner-type” book tour where she would be providing the meal: an article, interview, video clip, or other free content-rich material for readers to enjoy.

“I began the tour thinking I would only ride the virtual circuit for two weeks,” says Ms. Perry, “but the response I got was so positive that I extended it two more weeks to accommodate all the people who were offering their blogs as stops for my tour.”

There are nineteen blogs, three radio show interviews, and a stop on Youtube to see an audio/video presentation about The Sid Series. Each of the bloggers participating in Yvonne’s book tour from November 20 to December 20, will post unique material they received from the author. Articles will deal with children and past lives, the death of a pet, spirit channeling, imaginary friends, fairies, crystal kids, grand-parenting, and how the author shifted from her staunch Christian views to a metaphysical path. The tour will also share information about the teenage artist who illustrated parts of The Sid Series, and include discussions about how Yvonne wrote and published her book while maintaining her free-lance writing business.

The tour is also being used to teach authors how to conduct a successful virtual book tour. Perry keeps her blog updated with information to help authors learn how to use the Internet and social marketing to create a credible online presence and reach their reader markets.

“Authors are sometimes clueless as to how to promote their books once they’ve published them. I started my book marketing blog in 2008 when I published my e-book Book Marketing in the Digital Age, Online Promotion Made Easy,” says Perry, the owner of Writers in the Sky Creative Writing Services based in Nashville, Tennessee. “Rather than doing an in-person tour at bookstores where only your friends and a few other people show up, authors are taking to the virtual road to let others know about their work.”

Perry has found a way to incorporate her love for teaching. She has six blogs on various topics such as writing, publishing, book marketing, death and dying, stem cell research, and spirituality. Many of the blogs showcase the books she has written; therefore, all of them cross-promote one another. Writers in the Sky Creative Writing Services offers many types of book promotional services for authors http://writersinthesky.com/.

Yvonne invites you to join in the fun, learn about her book, and learn how to do your own online blog tour. For more information, please visit http://www.onlinepromotionmadeeasy.com/
