DIY Public Relations Telling Your Story on a Zero-Dollar Budget
Dan Shortridge
ISBN: 978-1-610353-94-6 PRICE: $18.95 PAGES: 220 FORMAT: Paperback PUB DATE: October 2022
Public relations doesn’t have to be a game of high-priced consultants and expensive services and databases.
If you want to get media attention, you don’t need to spend a dime—and you definitely don’t have to pay someone to do the work for you. Here’s how to do it yourself.
In DIY Public Relations, PR and marketing expert Dan Shortridge lays out a roadmap for your local organization, small business, or nonprofit to tell its story and spread the word. If you don’t have a communications and marketing staff, if you’re just getting started in your PR career, or if you’ve just been told to “get us on the news,” this is the book to read.
Full of practical, hands-on advice scaled to the local level, it draws on the author’s 20 years of experience in community journalism and state-level PR to show how to ace a media interview, organize a successful press event, and steer your organization through a crisis.
Business owners, PR and marketing professionals and nonprofit leaders will share their insights and tips to maximize positive publicity. You’ll learn about how to research targeted media outlets, pick the best time for reaching out, handle all the tiny details with confidence, and write a news release so an editor will run your story without changing a word.
As a bonus, it features a toolkit with examples and templates for writing a hard news announcement, event preview, media advisory, calendar item, staff promotion or hiring news, and crisis statements. DIY Public Relations is your complete guide for media success.

Heroes and Scoundrels
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of the Nobel Prize in Medicine Moira Dolan, MD
ISBN: 978-1-610353-93-9 PRICE: $18.95 PAGES: 260; 20 images
FORMAT: Paperback PUB DATE: August 2022
Beware the pronouncements from medical authorities on high…
The good, the bad, and the ugly of the winners of the Nobel Prize in Medicine are explored in these entertaining biographies of the world’s most highly recognized scientists. From unapologetic Nazis to dedicated humanitarians who carried out prize-winning research while being resistance fighters or peace activists, these engaging true stories reveal the depths of both the human strength and depravity of the people who forged medical progress in the post-WWII era.
In Heroes & Scoundrels (Volume 2 in the Boneheads and Brainiacs series), author and medical historian Moira Dolan, MD, continues her fascinating exploration of Nobel Prize in Medicine winners, focusing on the years 1951–1975. The book’s many biographies include the delightful discoveries of a honeybee researcher who persisted through the carpet-bombing of Munich, in-depth reflections on the nature of consciousness from Nobel neuroscientists, and even wild, hard-to-believe self-experimentation in the name of medical progress.
Heroes & Scoundrels also provides readers with an eye-opening “behind the scenes” look at what one Nobel winner described as “a few odd crooks” in the Nobel Prize business of the post-War era, including researchers engaged in medical research dishonesty and fraud, and self-important scientists who leveraged their notoriety to influence public health affairs. The role of Nobel Prize winners is revealed in public debates about everything from water fluoridation to “good genes” and “bad genes.” One laureate wondered, “whether mad scientists should really be allowed to police themselves” in light of the lack of informed consent for vaccine research and modified viruses escaping from labs.
As put by another laureate, the “medical priesthood” is due for some critique, and this book will get you thinking.

PRICE: $18.95
PAGES: 244; illustrated

“This is by far the best book on learning differences I have ever read.” —Dana Buchman, founder, Promise Project
Help and hope for parents of children with learning differences.
Every child can succeed in school and life, but some children need more help than others. For over 40 years, internationally acclaimed reading specialist and student advocate Dr. Victoria E. Waller has helped children who have trouble reading, who can’t sit still in class, who don’t feel like they can participate—children whom teachers have all but given up on. In Yes! Your Child Can, Dr. Waller shares with parents, teachers, and therapists her proven techniques to create success for children with learning differences and draw out the singular genius within your child.
In compassionate, nontechnical, easy-to-understand language, Yes! Your Child Can gives step-by-step guidance on how to help your child achieve in school and build lifelong intellectual confidence. Drawing on the latest science and her own wide-ranging experience, Dr. Waller explains why it’s important to pay attention to your first gut feeling that your child may need extra help and shows how to navigate testing, medication, and choosing a team to help your child.
Most importantly, Yes! Your Child Can shows you how to use your child’s natural strengths and passions to build their academic, social, and personal confidence. Dr. Waller empowers parents to let their children follow their own interests, whether that’s learning about sharks, reading to the dog, or building with Legos and writing about their creations. With Dr. Waller’s help, learning can be motivating and fun. Dr. Waller’s techniques are smart, caring, and effective with any child, no matter their current or past educational difficulties.
Respectful, compassionate, and offering real help, Yes! Your Child Can is the first book every parent of a child with learning differences should read.

Young men are underachieving in unprecedented numbers.

Be the Awesome Man approaches the challenges of being a young man from a unique and practical perspective.

Boneheads and Brainiacs
Heroes and Scoundrels of the Nobel Prize in Medicine Moira Dolan, MD
Even the greatest minds in medicine have been terribly, terribly wrong. The inventor of the lobotomy won a Nobel prize in medicine for destroying his patients’ brains. Another Nobel laureate thought malaria cured syphilis. The discoverer of anaphylactic shock also researched the spirit world and ESP.
Boneheads and Brainiacs profiles the winners of the Nobel Prize in Medicine from 1901 to 1950—a surprisingly diverse group of racists, cranks, and opportunists, as well as heroes, geniuses, and selfless benefactors of humanity. Forget all the ivory tower stereotypes of white-coated doctors finding miracle cures. Boneheads and Brainiacs reveals the messy human reality behind medical progress, in a highly entertaining book written for the ordinary reader.

A fun, nostalgic look at the great American stores of yesteryear and their rise and fall.
The wealthy and leisured lady of the 1920s shopped in a palatial downtown department store with a restaurant, beauty parlor, movie theater, and live orchestra—the harried suburban mom of today rushes her purchases through the self-checkout at the big box store.

A popular history that is both fun and compelling, The Great American Shopping Experience tells an epic story of capitalism’s powers of creative destruction and the repeated transformation of American society.

Twin Destinies tells the story of Pete and Mike Pappas, the twin sons of Greek immigrants who defied predictions of failure and worked their way to the top of the broadcasting business in the exciting and glamorous classic hits era of 1950s radio and television.
Pete and Mike started out hosting a radio show dedicated to teens, “Pete and Mike’s Dance Time,” in their hometown of Modesto, California, and, due to their talent and charismatic personalities, quickly found themselves local celebrities. Soon the twins entered the burgeoning television industry. Fame followed Pete and Mike even after they enlisted in the military.

The All-American Crew
A True Story of a World War II Bomber and the Men Who Flew It Russell N. Low
An inspiring true story of camaraderie and Americans at war.
On January 23, 1943, a B-24 Liberator bomber and its crew of ten men disappeared without a trace in New Guinea. Their families never knew what happened to them. Now, 80 years later, their long-forgotten letters and dusty photographs finally tell their story in The All-American Crew
Stanley Low, a Chinese American kid from Salem, Oregon, forms a tight bond with his crewmates, who come from every American ethnicity and walk of life. As the war heats up, Stan, his crewmates, and many other hastily trained bomber crews fly off dirt runways in the South Pacific tropics, fighting the relentless forces of the Japanese Empire. Those who survive quickly learn to fight. As Stan and his crew fly toward their final rendezvous with destiny, they are willing to sacrifice everything for their country and each other. Celebrating American diversity and ideals of honor, bravery, and freedom, The All-American Crew is a magnificent true story of men at war.

Murder This Close (book 2 in the Gold Coast Mystery series)
Timothy Cole
In the wealthy Gold Coast enclave of Westport, a feud between mystery writers turns deadly—and retired spy Dasha Petrov must find the real killer to clear her name.
Dasha Petrov looks like a nice old lady. In reality, she’s one of the most lethal secret agents in the world. Elderly, aristocratic, and independently wealthy, Dasha fits in well in upscale Westport, Connecticut, home to the rich and powerful. But when the bitter feud between her neighbors, Barnaby Jayne and Michael Aubrey—both wildly successful and many times married mystery writers who despise each other—boils over into murder, the evidence points to one suspect—Dasha herself. Now Dasha must fight to clear her name, find the real killer, and figure out why she was targeted, while dodging jealous wives, a sleazy tabloid reporter and his child spies, and a fearsome Mafia hitman, leading to a tense and dramatic confrontation.
Fast-paced and filled with intriguing characterization, Murder This Close is a stunning murder mystery with a twisty cerebral plot and plenty of hard-hitting action.
Tears of Honor
James A. Ardaiz
A sweeping novel of history, war, and courage in the face of injustice, Tears of Honor tells the story of the heroic Japanese-American soldiers who fought against Nazi tyranny in Europe, while their families were imprisoned in America.
Sammy and Freddy are two all-American boys in the summer of 1941, dreaming of becoming professional baseball players and maybe asking a girl to the senior prom. But when war comes, Sammy Miyaki, Freddy Shiraga, and their families are seen as enemy aliens, not Americans. Taken from their homes in rural central California and placed in internment camps, the boys decide that the only way to prove their loyalty to America is to join the Army.

Upon this Rock David Eugene Perry
Intrigue, terrorism, history, art, and the secrets of the Church collide in a relentless page-turning thriller.
An American couple in Italy investigate the suicide of a cleric in the picturesque Italian city of Orvieto, and find themselves plunged into a conspiracy that may destroy the Catholic Church. In the stunning thriller Upon This Rock, San Francisco business executive Lee Maury and his husband Adriano come to Orvieto to soak in the city’s beauty and rich history, but Lee becomes fascinated with a local tragedy, the suicide one year earlier of Deacon Andrea, a muchloved candidate for the priesthood.
Growing obsessed with learning the truth behind Andrea’s death, Lee and Adriano stumble upon a conspiracy of terrorism, human trafficking, and a plot to plant a nuclear dirty bomb in the tomb of St. Peter. Before they know it, Lee and Adriano’s dream vacation becomes a race to save innocent lives—and not get killed in the process.
As the Crow Dies
A Segal and Rudisill Murder Mystery
Kenneth Butcher
When a body is found in the River Arts District of Asheville, North Carolina, the man on the case is police lieutenant Ira Segal, recently returned to semi-active duty after being shot in the line of duty. Segal, who carries Elmore Leonard paperbacks as security blankets, isn’t sure he’s up to investigating a murder, and neither is his partner, military veteran and local roller derby star Sgt. Dinah “Dinosaur” Rudisill.

Segal discovers that the victim worked for the mysterious start-up company Creatures 2.0, which trains animals to acquire uncanny capabilities. Creature 2.0’s eccentric founder, Francis Elah has gone missing, and no one can find him, not even Elah’s top client, the Office of Naval Intelligence.
Witty, engaging and fast paced, As the Crow Dies is a mystery that veers from norm in unexpectedly delightful ways.

Wanderings of a Wayward Woodcarver
Stories from a Life in Wood
Gerry Holzman
Charming, humorous, sometimes tragic, and always fascinating vignettes from a life spent in craftmanship.
Wanderings of a Wayward Woodcarver is Gerry Holzman’s record of a lifetime spent in the craft and the many lessons it has taught him about what it means to be a carver and what it means to be a human being, plus a recounting of the many memorable characters he has met along the way.
From master carver Gino Masero, who taught Holzman much about carving, life, creativity, and decency, to Holzman’s students who touched his life deeply, to a sign carver who could not read, a witch who invited Holzman to visit her coven, and the mafioso who showed Holzman how to prevent his carvings from being stolen, Wanderings of a Wayward Woodcarver shows how a life in craft is the perfect viewpoint to see the whole of the human condition.
