Interview with Author Tysha

July 29th, 2008 · No Comments

Nia Virtual Book Tours presents author Tysha and her debut novel The Boss: The Story of a Female Hustler.

Kayla "Bossy" Tucker is a bona fide product of the streets, spending her time on the grind and settling scores. Years after forming alliances with a couple of the city’s most notorious gangsters, she creats a formula to cook cocaine with a ptency most dealers would pay top dollar to get their hands on.

Now in her prime, "Bossy" has gotten tired of looking over her sholduer and watching her own back. The death of her mentor hastens her decision to walk away from the hustle until a new enemy forces her to fight one final battle. Can "Bossy" make it off the streets before it’s too late or will the streets claim her like they have all the rest?

Author Interview with Ken Tucker

July 16th, 2008 · No Comments

Nia Virtual Book Tours presents an interview with author Ken Tucker.

 

 

Are You Fascinated? by Ken Tucker

 Are You Fascinated?: The Four People You Need to Succeed, will challenge everyone who reads it to examine where they have been, where they are now and where they want to be in their life and career. 

This book provides for each reader their own mini-revolution. This revolution is awakened by the personal stories, life-changing examples and opportunity for self-exploration that Ken offers. Are You Fascinated? is not for everyone . . . just that person who is fed up with the same old thing and hungry to do something positively new and different with their life.

When was the last time you took a real look at where you are and where you are going? Recently? Or has it been awhile? Are You Fascinated? provides practical strategies to ‘fire up’ the “fascination” that will energize you to clarify what it is you really want out of life, and provide you with practical tools to achieve your goals.

Take this fascinating trip with Ken. Really, what do you have to lose, except years of regret for not starting sooner? You can experience more and greater success. The time is now, and fascination, is the dynamic power that the four people who help you succeed, can and will use - If you are willing?
