Former Professional Dancer's Book "Tomboy Ballerina" Chronicles Unique Connection Between Baseball Legend and Ballet World
In a memoir that captivates both sports enthusiasts and dance aficionados, former professional ballerina Roni Mahler has published "Tomboy Ballerina: My Life from Baseball to American Ballet Theatre and Beyond," offering readers an intimate look at how baseball legend Mickey Mantle influenced her remarkable journey through the elite world of classical ballet. Photo Courtesy of: Roni Mahler The book, published by McFarland & Company, Inc., chronicles Mahler's extraordinary path from cheering at Yankee Stadium to performing principal roles with American Ballet Theatre, one of the nation's most prestigious ballet companies. Mahler's memoir reveals how she used Mantle as a personal inspiration during challenging moments in her ballet career, drawing fortitude from the Hall of Fame center fielder's blend of talent, temper, and tenacity—traits she recognized in herself. "Reflecting on her journey, Mahler contemplates the blend of talent, temper, and tenacity that connected her to her early childhood heroes, and how these traits fueled her dual passions," writes Dennis Nahat, former ABT Principal Dancer and founder of Cleveland Ballet/Ballet San Jose. The memoir has also garnered praise from Emmy Award-winning sports broadcaster Bob Costas. Mahler's distinguished performing career began at age 18 when she joined the corps de ballet of the renowned Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo. She later became Principal Dancer at the National Ballet of Washington, D.C., under George Balanchine's guidance, before returning to New York City in 1969, as a soloist with American Ballet Theatre, in principal roles including the Queen of the Wilis in "Giselle". Written in collaboration with her ballet student Caroline O'Connor, "Tomboy Ballerina" details Mahler's performing career and groundbreaking work as a ballet teacher. As a pioneer in athletic cross-training, Mahler created "Ballet Movement for the Athlete," a fitness program she customized for the NFL's Cleveland Browns in 1984. For over three decades, Mahler served as Artistic Associate of Cleveland Ballet/Ballet San Jose, where she taught, coached, and performed character roles. Her teaching credits span prestigious institutions including Ballet Academy East, The Alvin Ailey School, The Juilliard School, The Joffrey School, School of Ballet San Jose, and Ballet Tech. As a former tenured Assistant Professor at Kansas State University, she initiated the KSU Dance Degree program. Kansas State honored her with the Roni Mahler Ballet Studio and presented an annual award in her name for fifteen years. Currently, Mahler teaches 17 ballet classes weekly via Zoom to students worldwide, continuing the legacy she inherited from her mentor, Madame Maria Yurieva Swoboda. The memoir has received endorsements from notable figures including former New York City Ballet Principal Dancer Maria Calegari and Diana White, New York City Ballet Soloist Dancer. Both are Répétiteurs for the George Balanchine and Robbins Rights Trusts. About Roni Mahler Ballet Roni Mahler Ballet celebrates the art of ballet through teaching, mentorship, and storytelling. Founded by former American Ballet Theatre soloist and National Ballet of Washington principal dancer Roni Mahler, the organization offers live online ballet classes via Zoom to students worldwide. Guided by Madame Maria Yurieva Swoboda's masterful teachings, Roni’s approach shares classical ballet technique with warmth, clarity, and personal attention. Roni Mahler Ballet provides in-person teaching engagements, including master classes, workshops, and one-on-one sessions. With a teaching philosophy rooted in empathy and creating a safe haven for students, Roni Mahler Ballet inspires the next generation of dancers while preserving classical ballet traditions.

Pons Veritas Launches the Inner Clarity and Self Mastery Series to Help Individuals Discover Their True Purpose
Pons Veritas Launches the Inner Clarity and Self Mastery Series to Empower Personal Transformation Pons Veritas , a publishing and personal development brand, is proud to announce the launch of the Inner Clarity and Self Mastery Series . Designed to help individuals navigate life with greater purpose, confidence, and emotional intelligence, the series provides practical tools for self-awareness, personal responsibility, and lasting change. The brand name Pons Veritas , meaning “Bridge of Truth” in Latin, reflects the company's mission: to guide individuals from confusion to clarity, from uncertainty to purpose, and from survival to genuine self-direction. The Inner Clarity and Self Mastery Series was created to address the real challenges of life, offering grounded clarity and practical reflection for those seeking deep, lasting transformation. Real Transformation from Real Experience What sets Pons Veritas apart from other self-development brands is its emphasis on lived experience, not theory. The books in the Inner Clarity and Self Mastery Series were written by Bridgette Gajadhar, who speaks from her personal journey of self-discovery. Bridgette’s work is rooted in the belief that true change comes from understanding oneself on a deep, emotional level and using that clarity to make empowered, intentional decisions. “I spent years searching outward for answers—only to realize that the peace and direction I was seeking were within me all along,” said Bridgette Gajadhar, founder of Pons Veritas . “Once I learned how to understand my patterns and trust my intuition, everything changed. My confidence grew, and I was able to step into the life I was meant to live. Pons Veritas is the result of that journey, and I want to help others experience the same transformation.” Clarity Before Confidence, Confidence Before Action The series challenges the traditional view of self-improvement by focusing on self-understanding first. Pons Veritas believes that growth begins with clarity. When individuals understand their habits, thoughts, and emotional patterns, they can shift from reacting to life to responding with intention. The series is structured to help readers reflect on their behaviors, recognize the root causes of their actions, and step into a new way of being that aligns with their true self. “Understanding yourself is the first form of personal power,” said Gajadhar. “Once you see yourself clearly, you no longer move from confusion or fear. You make choices that are aligned with your purpose, not pressured by external expectations.” The Emotional Presence in Every Word The writing in the Inner Clarity and Self Mastery Series is designed to speak directly to the heart. Readers consistently share how the books have helped them feel seen, heard, and understood. Instead of offering superficial motivation, the series guides readers through deep emotional insight and practical steps that allow them to create meaningful change. “Our work is not about quick fixes or perfect solutions,” Gajadhar explained. “It’s about building a steady foundation from which people can make empowered decisions and live with intention. We help people return to themselves, to the person they were before the world tried to shape them into someone they were never meant to be.” A Unique Approach to Self-Development Unlike many self-help books that overwhelm readers with complex terminology or unrealistic expectations, Pons Veritas speaks in simple, relatable language. It blends emotional intelligence with grounded clarity, allowing readers to understand their emotions, rewrite old patterns, and create a life that reflects their true desires. “We don’t offer generic motivation,” said Gajadhar. “We help people find clarity in their inner world. Once they gain that clarity, they can move forward confidently, knowing that their choices are aligned with who they are at their core.” Global Reach and Growing Impact The Inner Clarity and Self Mastery Series is already reaching readers across the United States and internationally. Available worldwide through major online retailers like Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Walmart, the series continues to inspire individuals to make meaningful changes in their lives. The response from readers has been overwhelmingly positive, with many sharing how the books have helped them regain control over their emotional wellbeing and make life decisions with greater confidence. The Next Step in Personal Transformation As Pons Veritas continues to grow, the brand remains focused on its mission: to guide people toward clarity, self-mastery, and a life built on purpose. With the Inner Clarity and Self Mastery Series , Gajadhar and her team are committed to helping individuals transform from the inside out. “Our work is for those who are ready to lead themselves,” said Gajadhar. “Once you learn to trust yourself and lead your life with clarity, you can achieve anything.” About Pons Veritas Pons Veritas is a publishing and personal development brand dedicated to helping individuals gain clarity, emotional intelligence, and self-mastery. Through the Inner Clarity and Self Mastery Series , Pons Veritas empowers people to make life decisions from a place of self-understanding and inner strength. The series provides practical tools, reflection, and emotional insight that help individuals break free from old patterns and step into a life aligned with their true purpose.

Full Circle Asset Recovery Expands National Footprint as Surplus Funds Industry Accelerates
The firm has surpassed $8.5 million in recovered funds for families and is scaling rapidly with proprietary tech and strategic partnerships. In an overlooked but increasingly vital corner of the legal-financial sector, Full Circle Asset Recovery is gaining momentum as a leader in surplus funds recovery. The company helps individuals reclaim funds left behind after foreclosures or tax sales—money that typically defaults to government control if not claimed. As of 2025, Full Circle has already recovered more than $8.5 million for clients and is in the midst of a major national expansion. The growth is driven by a combination of operational discipline, tech innovation, and strategic outreach, allowing the company to scale without compromising its mission. Addressing a Gap in the System Full Circle Asset Recovery was created in response to a systemic gap in homeowner protections that persisted for decades. Until a landmark 2023 Supreme Court ruling in Tyler v. Hennepin County, approximately 12-14 U.S. states had allowed local governments to keep surplus equity from tax sales, denying former property owners the ability to reclaim what remained after debt settlement. On May 25, 2023, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled this practice unconstitutional under the Fifth Amendment’s Takings Clause, creating a new legal pathway for homeowners to recover their equity. Full Circle stepped in to meet this emerging demand. The company’s founders, who personally experienced foreclosure during their teenage years, saw an opportunity to turn a broken system into a source of justice for families who had previously been shut out. Results-Driven Growth Backed by Process Full Circle’s expansion is grounded in results. Over the past year, the firm has recovered significant sums for families across more than a dozen states, including individual payouts of $1.7 million, $600,000, and $339,000. Their active pipeline now includes millions in pending claims. Behind these numbers is a highly systematized approach: Zero upfront fees, making services accessible regardless of financial situation Fully in-house recovery teams trained through a proprietary certification process Multi-touch outreach workflows designed to connect with clients often unaware they are owed money A growing legal network that enables speed and scale across jurisdictions Rather than relying on aggressive marketing, the company focuses on process integrity and measurable outcomes. Its success stems from disciplined execution, scalable systems, and a values-first approach to client engagement. Tech Innovation and Strategic Expansion At the core of Full Circle’s future plans is a proprietary software platform that automates critical stages of the recovery process, from case research to legal documentation. This infrastructure is being built to handle significantly higher volume with greater precision, allowing the company to enter new counties and states efficiently. Additionally, Full Circle is forming partnerships with organizations that can expand its reach into underserved communities, particularly veterans, senior citizens, and families affected by foreclosure. These alliances are positioned to help the company serve thousands of potential claimants who may not even be aware surplus funds exist. Scaling With Purpose Full Circle Asset Recovery began as a lean, founder-led venture and has evolved into a national operation with clear intent: to restore equity to individuals who were historically left behind by the system. The company views surplus recovery not just as a financial transaction, but as a means of unlocking legacy wealth, stabilizing families, and setting a new standard for justice-focused entrepreneurship. With a seven-figure pipeline, expanding legal reach, and software systems nearing launch, Full Circle is on track to become one of the most efficient and impactful recovery firms in the industry. About Full Circle Asset Recovery Full Circle Asset Recovery is a surplus funds recovery firm operating in 12 states across the U.S. The company specializes in helping families reclaim unreturned equity after foreclosure or tax sales through a zero-risk, results-based model. Founded by Matthew Joffre and Carl O’Neal, Full Circle combines operational discipline, legal expertise, and a mission-first culture to deliver high-trust results at scale.

Global Sailing Adventure Announced by Author Alison Gieschen
Exploring the World and Writing the Journey: Alison Gieschen - The Nautical Novelist The open ocean has a way of shifting a person’s perspective, especially when it comes to exploring the world, both physically and creatively. Alison Gieschen, a passionate adventurer and writer, found herself on a journey of a lifetime when she and her husband sold everything they owned to sail around the globe. The weekend she and her husband met, they discovered a shared dream to sail around the world. A year later, they were married. Thirty-five years later, after raising three kids, working in their careers, and running their horse farm, they were finally able to cast off the dock lines and head off on their epic adventure. What began as an escape into the freedom of the sea became a mission to share her adventures, inspire others, and craft stories from a life lived exploring the world by sea. Alison's story isn't just about sailing; it's about the connection between travel, adventure, and storytelling. Over the past eight years, Alison and Dan have navigated through 57 countries, immersing themselves in a life of exploration. Through the ups and downs of the open sea, she has found a way to write as a travel journalist and author, and as a podcast guest. She has connected with audiences across the world. Her work speaks to the hearts of those who crave adventure, inspiration, and a deeper understanding of life as a nomadic world traveler. The Journey to Sailing and Writing Alison’s story began long before her boat departed from the dock. Like many dreamers, she had an innate sense of wanderlust but didn’t know exactly how to channel it. Her love for books, storytelling, and the allure of the open ocean eventually fused together, leading her and her husband to circumnavigate the globe by sailboat. The decision took years of preparation—mentally, physically, and emotionally. Alison and Dan spent time learning the ins and outs of circumnavigation, from sailing oceans to understanding the cultures and climates they'd encounter. Using her passion for journaling, Alison turned her experiences into more than just personal memories. “I wanted to share the adventure, not just the highs but the challenges as well,” Alison explains on her blog. “Writing became a way to process what we were experiencing and to connect with others on a similar journey or those simply dreaming of it.” Alison’s blog, Sailmates.org , is more than just a travel diary; it's a living testament to the grit and determination it takes to live at sea. Her posts are filled with insights, stories, photos, and the reality of sailing in diverse parts of the world. From the quiet beauty of remote islands to the chaos of bustling cities, she writes it all with raw honesty and passion. The Obstacles and Breakthroughs Though life at sea sounds idyllic, it is far from easy. Navigating through unpredictable weather, maintaining the sailboat, and handling logistical challenges like visas and supplies often pose major obstacles. There were moments when things seemed uncertain, and the idea of giving up crossed Alison’s mind. But it was these moments of adversity that allowed her to push forward, toward her greater goal of writing books and reaching a larger audience. Her breakthrough came when she realized that storytelling, much like sailing, is about the journey, not just the destination. “It’s not just about where we’ve been, but how we got there,” she reflects. “Each stop, each experience, has its own story, and that’s what I wanted to share, something real, something that could inspire others to step outside their comfort zone and embrace the unknown.” As her voyage continued, Alison’s writing evolved. Her books, now featured on her website AlisonGieschen.com , and on Amazon and Goodreads, reflect the experiences and lessons she’s learned along the way. They are a collection of stories, each encapsulating a unique part of her journey, from the struggles of adjusting to life at sea to the beauty of cultural immersion. Some of her books are non-fiction, others fiction, but all her stories incorporate the sounds, sights, and experiences she has encountered as she sails around the planet. A Unique Approach to Storytelling What makes Alison’s work stand out is her ability to weave together the art of sailing and writing seamlessly. Her stories go beyond the typical travelogue; they’re deeply personal, filled with moments of introspection and discovery. Whether she’s writing about a life-changing encounter with a local fisherman in the Pacific Islands or reflecting on the solitude of the sea, her words resonate with readers who crave authenticity and adventure. Furthermore, Alison has expanded her reach through regular podcast appearances, where she shares her insights with an even broader audience. As a guest on multiple podcasts, she offers valuable advice to fellow travelers, aspiring writers, and those interested in the lifestyle of full-time adventurers. Her podcasts give listeners a behind-the-scenes look at the realities of life at sea, mixed with inspiration to pursue their own dreams, whether they’re on the water or not. Alison’s presence on podcasts has also allowed her to connect with a diverse range of people who share a love for the sea, exploration, and personal growth. She talks openly about the challenges she’s faced and how she’s overcome them, offering real-world advice and emotional encouragement to others who might be considering a similar journey. What Sets Alison Apart What sets Alison apart is her authenticity and the holistic nature of her approach to life. She doesn’t just want to write about adventure, she wants to live it. And through her books, blog, and podcasts, she invites others to embark on that journey with her. Alison’s work speaks to anyone with a dream to explore, travel, and live a life beyond the ordinary. Her vulnerability, mixed with her adventurous spirit, creates a genuine connection with her audience. She writes for those who aren’t afraid to pursue something extraordinary, even when the road ahead seems daunting. Her advice is simple: “Start with one step. It doesn’t matter how big or small. If you’re waiting for the perfect moment to begin, you might wait forever.” Set Sail on Your Own Adventure Whether you’re looking for inspiration to leave the shore and set sail yourself or simply want to immerse yourself in the stories of someone who’s doing it, Alison Gieschen’s journey is one worth following. Explore her books, listen to her podcasts, and dive into the blog Sailmates.org for a glimpse into the world of a true adventurer. Ready to start your own adventure? Let Alison’s experiences be the wind in your sails.

Brian James Launches New Time Travel Adventure Series A Time And A Place
A Time And A Place, Novel Series When three close friends stumble upon an ancient portal hidden deep within an underground cave structure, they're thrust into a dangerous journey across time itself. Alex, Tilly, and Max find themselves leaping between eras, from alien worlds with strange creatures to the shadowy catacombs beneath medieval Rome, all while being hunted by ruthless enemies who will stop at nothing to capture them. Aimed primarily at teens and young adults but designed to resonate across generations, A Time And A Place combines high-stakes action with quick-witted humor and heartfelt friendship. It's a story about loyalty in the face of impossible odds, the courage required for risk-taking, and the unbreakable bonds that hold us together when everything falls apart. The novel explores universal themes that speak to anyone who has ever valued friendship above all else or dreamed of embarking on an adventure beyond the ordinary. A Story Born from Adventure Brian James brings a unique and multifaceted perspective to storytelling. His career as a professional photographer, capturing fleeting moments on stages and incredible landscapes across continents, has honed his ability to create vivid, cinematic scenes where every second counts and every detail matters. This visual sensibility translates beautifully to the written word, allowing readers to see, feel, and experience each moment alongside the characters. Add to that, his eclectic background as a musician who once recorded at the BBC, and you have an author who understands rhythm, pacing, and emotional resonance in ways that elevate the narrative beyond simple adventure. James' diverse creative background has given him a keen eye for authentic detail and genuine emotion. His years behind the camera taught him how to frame a scene for maximum impact, while his musical training helps him understand the importance of tempo and knowing exactly when to slow down for reflection or speed up for heart-pounding action. Now, James channels all those accumulated skills into fiction that moves at breakneck speed while never losing sight of the heart at its core. The result is a reading experience that feels both cinematic and deeply personal, a story that readers can see playing out like a movie while simultaneously connecting with on an emotional level. Three Friends, One Wild Ride The trio's dynamic is electric and instantly relatable: Alex, the protective leader determined to keep everyone alive no matter the cost; Tilly, the fearless thrill-seeker living out her greatest adventure with unbridled enthusiasm; and Max, the reluctant genius whose homemade inventions have a spectacular habit of backfiring at the worst possible moments. Their banter is sharp and authentic, their loyalty fierce and unwavering, and their ability to find trouble in every era they visit? Absolutely legendary. Each character brings something unique to the group dynamic. Alex's level-headed leadership often clashes with Tilly's impulsive nature, while Max's brilliant but unpredictable inventions provide both salvation and chaos in equal measure. Together, they form a friendship that feels genuine and lived-in, the kind readers will recognize from their own lives. "These characters have lived in my imagination for years," says James. "They're based on the kind of friendships we all treasure, the ones where you'd follow each other through a portal into the unknown, even if you know it's going to be absolute chaos. I wanted to capture that special chemistry that exists between people who truly understand each other, who can communicate with a single glance, and who would literally travel through time to protect one another." More Than One Adventure A Time And A Place is structured as interconnected stories, launching readers into an expansive series that promises multiple books of time-traveling mayhem and discovery. This innovative storyline allows readers to experience multiple adventures while setting up the larger mysteries that will unfold throughout the series. The second book in the series is already in development, with plans to deepen the mystery surrounding the ancient portals and explore new historical eras that will challenge the trio in unexpected ways. James has mapped out an ambitious multi-book arc that will take readers on a journey spanning centuries and continents, each installment building on the last while standing alone as a complete adventure. Join the Inner Circle Fans of the series can sign up for exclusive perks at Brian James' website. Members of the Inner Circle receive early notification of Book 2's launch, often weeks before the general public announcement. They will also receive a free chapter excerpt before public release, allowing them to be among the first to continue the journey alongside Alex, Tilly, and Max. Additional benefits include behind-the-scenes insights into the creation of the series, revealing the research and creative process that brings each historical era to life. Members discover character trivia that didn't make it into the published books, including deleted scenes and alternate storylines that James considered during the writing process. The Inner Circle also receives the occasional "Note From the Author's Desk," a series of personal reflections on writing the series, the challenges of crafting authentic time-travel adventures, and the inspiration behind key plot points and character decisions. This exclusive community represents James' commitment to engaging directly with his readers and building a relationship that extends beyond the pages of the books themselves. About Brian James Brian James is a Sydney-based author, professional photographer with a passion for adventure, both behind the lens and on the page.

While helping bake cookies and preparing for Santa’s arrival, Spog discovers Santa stuck in a chimney and, with quick thinking and kindness, rescues him — earning a magical sleigh bell and leaving children wondering whether it was all a dream or a Christmas miracle. Further details are available at https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FZCN9RKT?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_3&storeType=ebooks King hopes that this new Spog adventure will be a popular gift for young children this holiday season.

Therefore, King hopes Spog will help create holiday reading traditions that help children build vocabulary, foster imagination, and establish positive associations with books. Spog’s Christmas features themes of belief in Santa Claus, the joy of giving and sharing, family traditions, and the excitement of Christmas Eve. Readers follow Spog as he prepares for the holiday, helps his mother, discovers the unexpected challenge of rescuing Santa, and learns that true joy comes not just from receiving but from helping others. Written to be enjoyed by toddlers, preschoolers, and early readers, the book combines short, engaging text with vibrant illustrations. It is suitable for being read aloud at bedtime, shared in classroom storytime, or given as a thoughtful stocking stuffer. Barry King has created The Ghost Nation Series to deliver gentle, imaginative stories that support early reading and family bonding. In Spog’s Christmas, he blends familiar holiday imagery with a charming ghost protagonist, showing that even in the most curious of scenarios, kindness and courage can light the way. Schools, libraries, and parents may find the book particularly suitable during holiday-themed read-aloud sessions or as part of early-reader collections. With its publication date set for November 15, 2025, Spog’s Christmas arrives just in time to become part of holiday traditions and reading routines. Enthusiasts of classic Christmas titles who are looking to engage younger children with new storytelling will find that this latest title offers both heart-warming themes and accessible reading levels.

Deyan Dawns Art & Business Book Introduces the Creative Resilience System for Modern Artists
Building a Sustainable Future for Artists: The Creative Resilience System In today’s rapidly evolving art world, many artists struggle to turn their passion into a viable career while maintaining their creative integrity. Deyan Dawn, art manager, agent, and entrepreneur, and founder of Fine Art Factory, a pioneering mural agency recognized for large-scale projects across Europe, created the Creative Resilience System to bridge this gap. Drawing on years of experience managing major mural projects for prominent international clients, Dawn has developed a proven methodology that equips artists with the tools to thrive both creatively and financially. The CRS provides practical tools for navigating the complexities of the art market, from pricing and positioning to marketing and client management. It empowers artists to achieve financial stability while staying true to their vision, reframing the business side of art as a natural extension of creativity. A Step-by-Step Approach for Artists “The art world has evolved,” says Deyan Dawn. “Artists don’t need gimmicks or shortcuts; they need a clear system that respects their craft and communicates their value. True creative freedom begins when you understand the business side of your art, not when you avoid it.” The CRS helps artists price with confidence, negotiate effectively, and position themselves in the premium segment of the market. It is not about chasing trends but about building long-term resilience, so that artists can flourish in any economic climate. Deyan Dawn’s Journey: From Struggling Creative to Entrepreneur Dawn’s personal journey is living proof that art and business can coexist. From modest beginnings, he built Fine Art Factory , pioneering large-scale mural projects for corporate offices and public spaces across Europe, including some of the largest mural compositions on the continent. Among Fine Art Factory’s most notable accomplishments are two monumental projects that reflect both artistic excellence and visionary project management. The first, “Embers” — a 12,900-square-foot (≈1,200 m²) mural created for one of Europe’s leading wine producers — merges fine art and brand storytelling into a powerful visual narrative celebrating transformation and creative resilience, turning their production facility into an open-air museum of contemporary art that redefines the relationship between industry and creativity. Even more extraordinary is “From Grey to Great” , a breathtaking 43,000-square-foot (≈4,000 m²) silo-art installation commissioned by a major European agricultural manufacturer . One of the largest mural compositions in the world, it transforms a functional industrial landmark — a facility that helps supply food across the entire region — into a monumental celebration of creation, nourishment, and human perseverance. Both projects were realized under Dawn’s direction and management during his five-year tenure as the official manager and art director of internationally acclaimed mural and fine artist Stanislav Trifonov – Nasimo . Through this partnership, Fine Art Factory established itself as a leader in large-scale mural production, known for delivering world-class results through artistic integrity, strategic planning, and flawless execution. His path demonstrates that it is possible to succeed as an artist without compromising on quality or authenticity. “I want artists to realize that they are not just creators — they are professionals who deserve respect and fair compensation,” says Dawn. “The Creative Resilience System combines creative and entrepreneurial strategies into a clear roadmap for building sustainable careers.” Empowering Artists Worldwide Art & Business – How to Earn More as an Artist with the Creative Resilience System is more than just a book; it is the foundation of a global educational brand. Through Art & Business, Dawn provides artists with toolkits and online training that complement the book, helping them put the CRS into practice in both their artistic and personal lives. Whether they are muralists, illustrators, or visual artists, creatives around the world can apply the CRS to improve both their craft and their financial outcomes. “Artists need to understand their value and communicate it with confidence,” says Dawn. “The Creative Resilience System gives them the tools to do that and to build careers that inspire culture, enrich communities, and drive economies forward.” About Art & Business Art & Business is an independent educational brand founded by Deyan Dawn (Deyan Minchev), a renowned art agent and entrepreneur.

JIA Publishing Releases The Secret Adoption: A Tell-All Memoir Exploring Child Abandonment Behind Hollywood’s Gilded Gates
In The Secret Adoption , author Rafael Moscatel recounts accidentally stumbling on the secret behind his sealed adoption, an event marked by emotional turmoil that forced him to come to terms with a new identity. The unadulterated memoir delves into the challenges of coming to grips with lurid family secrets, offering a raw and heartfelt account of his quest for understanding, forgiveness, and healing. Set against the backdrop of Beverly Hills in the seventies and eighties, the book chronicles a family’s close associations with celebrities and politicians, including Michael Landon, Frank Sinatra, and Jerry Brown. However, the memoir’s primary focus is on the pitfalls of late-discovery adoption, where adoptees often learn of their true origins well into adulthood. The Department of Health and Human Services estimates roughly 120,000 adoptions occur each year in the US, many of which result in sealed records. Locating these files can be tricky, and Moscatel’s search for his biological family offers insight into how families navigate these revelations. “I think everybody today knows somebody going through an identity crisis,” Moscatel reflects in the book. “The struggle with late-discovery adoption is analogous, and the answer is the same: becoming comfortable in your own skin and loving the way God made you.” Praise for The Secret Adoption The Secret Adoption has already garnered praise from several notable figures, including actress and fellow adoptee Melissa Gilbert, who shared her appreciation for the book’s exploration of identity and healing. "It’s about survival. It’s about coming to terms with the truth of who we are at the core of our beings," Gilbert said. "You simply must read this book." Exclusive Content In conjunction with the release, JIA Publishing is offering readers exclusive access to a collection of photographs from Moscatel’s family archives, providing a personal and intimate look at the events chronicled throughout the book. About JIA Publishing JIA Publishing is a respected independent publisher known for releasing thought-provoking books that tackle complex personal histories and social issues. The company is committed to creating works that challenge perspectives, spark conversations, and inspire new ideas. The Secret Adoption represents a significant addition to JIA Publishing’s catalog, offering a compelling and emotionally resonant story about identity and family.
