A year ... Fifty-two weeks ... Three-hundred and sixty-five days ... No matter how time is measured objectively, human beings can also experience the passing of time subjectively. For Malena 'Lena' Foch, the events in that watershed year of her life appear to render the concept of calendar year irrelevant. It is as though she finds herself living several lives in those three hundred and sixty-five days. In spite of having been caught in the ups and downs of bipolar disorder for much of her life, Lena has clocked up 'bragging rights' that she would have never dreamt possible in her early years: her family relationships, her friends, her career as a psychologist, among others-all of it an ocean away from where she was born. What many human beings take for granted: stability-financial, emotional, intellectual and physical-constitute Lena's greatest life achievement. However, Lena's newfound and hard-earned peace is tested by a cocktail of challenging events, and some of her nearest and dearest are not what they seem to be. In an unexpected twist, Lena finds herself facing unforeseen and unthinkable circumstances that force her to take a snap decision for the sake of her own personal safety. In less than seventy-two hours, Lena's new life journey starts, and it will not be without risks. Her cherished life project has been badly shattered, together with her sense of trust. In her year-long journey, Lena has to face her old demons in new situations; challenges herself to learn a new discipline (aikido) and achieves greater self-control, even in the face of conflict and bereavement. Her old erotic self is awakened, and to her astonishment, sexual tension arises in unexpected and inconvenient situations. Not that she is a stranger to being devoured by passion, but her objects of desire are in positions of power and her academic future is at stake. Set in Inner Sydney and in Clovelly Beach, 'Bittersweet Symphony' is Lena's journey of three hundred and sixty-five days of change, of living life to the fullest, of resilience and renewal in the face of overwhelming challenges, and of overcoming her fears and accepting her own destiny. Mature age is portrayed as a time of learning, and Lena throws herself into her life homework so fully that it exceeds her own expectations, as well as those of the people around her. | Author: F. F.

An unexpected turn of fate sends her to England, where a car crash frees her of her memories, throws her world into darkness and transports her eight hundred years into the past.

Build a strong portfolio Ultimately, the first thing that any major brand is going to want to look at is your work. Even if you have a CV brimming with accolades and testimonials, the major brands will want to see examples of work, not words on a page. Major brands are much more interested in you and your past work, than they are about how many good grades you got when you were a teenager.Make sure that you build up a solid portfolio of examples that really showcase what you’re about and let your work do the talking.If you are just starting out, offer your services to some of your local businesses at either a discounted rate or for free. By doing that, you’ll make something that you’d be proud to add to your portfolio. You never know, Mrs Brown may be married to the decision maker of a major brand, and her referral might just get your foot in the door.Whilst we’re talking about portfolios, don’t feel like you need to show every single piece of work you’ve ever done. Big brands don’t have time to plough through heaps of portfolio examples, so just pick out a handful of work examples you think best show off your skills and elegantly display them either digitally or in print. You need to make sure you stand out from the crowd. Print may be a dying art, but the fact that it’s now such a rarity will make you stand out from others.If you really want to stand out from the crowd, use companies like Burgopak to create some unique packaging for your portfolio of work, and send it to them. Don’t be tempted to write a generic email and spam it to fifty agencies - you’ll get zero replies.Rather, pick out a few agencies that are already boasting about having worked with major brands and write them a bespoke email. Whilst it may take some of your time, with no guarantee of getting a return, if you can get even just one major brand project via an agency, you’ll start drawing the attention of others. Don’t be scared to take the initiative It can be a bit daunting trying to get the attention of major brands. You’ll need to push your way into the view of the major brand. For example: If you’re targeting major brands in the car industry, find a company that creates customised toys (they’re normally relatively cheap if you buy a few in bulk) and sent out some toy cars with your branding on and a little cover letter explaining who you are and how you can benefit their business. Enthusiasm is infectious, so make sure you’re enthusiastic about working for them, but be careful not to come across like a hyper-active squirrel!You equally need to make sure that you don’t come across as over-confident, as this can instantly detract from your presentation. Make them remember you As mentioned earlier, major brands speak to hundreds of people a week. And if you show potential and initiative, you’re very likely to get noticed by major brands.

Book Details: Book Title: Dream it & Do It by Holly Sharp Category: Children's Non-Fiction (Ages 3-7), 216 pages Genre: Children's Non-Fiction Publisher: Dream It & Do It LLC Release date: Nov 2020 Format available for review: print (USA), pdf Tour dates: Jan 6 to Jan 22, 2021 Content Rating: G for everyone. Book Description: Dream It & Do It introduces children to a wide range of career possibilities at a young age. Readers will explore 100 stories featuring 100 role models, each one showcasing a different career choice. Dream It & Do It was recently awarded a coveted Readers’ Favorite 5-Star Review from the largest fully-accredited book review platform, 1st place for short stories (Royal Dragonfly Book Award) and a Gold Mom’s Choice Award. “Dream It & Do It by Holly Sharp is a perfect book for young kids who want to find their place in this world and what they’d like to be when they are older.” (Readers’ Favorite). Readers will continued to be inspired through the coordinating Activity Book wherein 100+ activities teach your child about today’s career paths. Book can be purchased as a full collection or in 3 individual volumes. Find the paperback version on Amazon.com and hardcover on dreamitandoit.com. Buy the Book Amazon.com ~ Dream It and Do It LuLu Meet the Author: Sharp spent the bulk of her career in new product development—dreaming up intuitive ideas from how to kill bugs to new ice cream forms to hit grocery shelves. A self-proclaimed problem-solver, she loves to think about the things that the world needs and figuring out how to make those things come to life. “Knowing in high school what I wanted to do with my life set me up for the right path. I wanted the same for my child and searched for books to guide her, but came up short,” Sharp said. “That’s when I thought, ‘why not write the book for my child that she needs and that will also help others?” connect with the author: website ~ facebook ~ instagram More From the Author: Holly A. Sharp, three-time award winning author of Dream It & Do It shares her perspective on “reading recess.” As parents juggle distance learning whether it is full time, part time or simply sometimes, it leaves us all asking how to keep kids motivated and maybe even…. exceeding. This idea of “reading recess” helps kids take a break from staring at their screen all day. According to a 2016 study out of Carnegie Melon, small, but frequent breaks actually make it easier for elementary school kids to focus on the task at hand. In talking to parents in this situation, I have found that short stories are an excellent way to allow kids to take a break from screen time or to have something to do if they are a “fast finisher”. Dream It & Do it is a collection of 100 short stories about modern day role models. Each story features a different career path. These stories make for a great “reading recess” as each story is only 2 pages. There are a lot of ways that parents can use this book. What about as a discussion tool over dinner? If kids are using the short stories during the day as a way to take quick breaks or when they finish before other students, use the book as a discussion starter over dinner. Who did they learn about today? What did they like about the job they learned about? Could they ever see themselves doing this job? What about as a supplement to what kids are currently learning in school. Discuss what topics they are learning and read stories together at bedtime that relates back to the subjects that kids are studying. Help them to see how the subjects they are learning about today, lead to the real-world careers that people are doing today. What about a as a way to generate activities for kids to do after (or during) school. Each story ends with a suggested activity that kids can do to learn more about that specific career. Each book covers careers in the arts, sciences, technology, service, business and product development. There is certain to be one job that might start inspiring your child to not just have a dream, but to go out and do it. My Thoughts What an inspirational book. The author writes in the introduction "Any dream can be creative if you use problem solving and imagination". This book is geared toward all. Especially for kids of all ages, genders, ethnicity and backgrounds that have big dreams and are unsure where to start. There are so many different stories about different career options. My 9 and 7 year old spent so much time going through this and discussing what dreams they had. I love how I even learned about different dreamers and how they turned them into a reality. My wish is to put this book in all K-12 libraries. I received a copy of this book through IRead book tours -- all thoughts are my own.

The New York Times Magazine piece famously opened: \"She has pouting lips and high round breasts. Thousands of men have dreamt of her. Hundreds have chased after her. Two have died in pursuit. Her name is Sirena, she weighs 193 pounds, and she vanished in 1959. Without a trace.\"Barrett College's legendary Greco-Roman sculpture's fate was still a hot topic in 1970 when four roommates began their freshman year at the New England school. They've gone their separate ways, but as the 1994 commencement approaches, they are about to reunite to meet a challenge thrown down by a Class of '59 billionaire. He has pledged a $25 million endowment plus a $3 million purse to her finder(s) if Sirena is restored to Barrett.Although they are not alone in their pursuit--groups of alumni, including a pair of aggressive and highly financed classmates, are running down leads across the world--St. Louis lawyer Lou Solomon and his crew come upon an obscure but intriguing clue. It leads them to Chicago where a young lawyer called Rachel Gold may hold key information. As the men race to crack the Sirena puzzle, their quest will transform their lives in unexpected ways.
