How to Fall in Love with Anyone


Book Description

“A beautifully written and well-researched cultural criticism as well as an honest memoir” (Los Angeles Review of Books) from the author of the popular New York Times essay, “To Fall in Love with Anyone, Do This,” explores the romantic myths we create and explains how they limit our ability to achieve and sustain intimacy. What really makes love last? Does love ever work the way we say it does in movies and books and Facebook posts? Or does obsessing over those love stories hurt our real-life relationships? When her parents divorced after a twenty-eight year marriage and her own ten-year relationship ended, those were the questions that Mandy Len Catron wanted to answer. In a series of candid, vulnerable, and wise essays that takes a closer look at what it means to love someone, be loved, and how we present our love to the world, “Catron melds science and emotion beautifully into a thoughtful and thought-provoking meditation” (Bookpage). She delves back to 1944, when her grandparents met in a coal mining town in Appalachia, to her own dating life as a professor in Vancouver. She uses biologists’ research into dopamine triggers to ask whether the need to love is an innate human drive. She uses literary theory to show why we prefer certain kinds of love stories. She urges us to question the unwritten scripts we follow in relationships and looks into where those scripts come from. And she tells the story of how she decided to test an experiment that she’d read about—where the goal was to create intimacy between strangers using a list of thirty-six questions—and ended up in the surreal situation of having millions of people following her brand-new relationship. “Perfect fodder for the romantic and the cynic in all of us” (Booklist), How to Fall in Love with Anyone flips the script on love. “Clear-eyed and full of heart, it is mandatory reading for anyone coping with—or curious about—the challenges of contemporary courtship” (The Toronto Star).

Money


Book Description

"Money: Get Rich in 10,001 Easy Steps" WAIT! DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK unless you are giving to someone who is poor. You have money. It is not for you. Take the money you would have spent on this book and go buy a Latte (or whatever your preferred drink is) at Starbucks. Pull out your laptop and check your stocks. This book is for those who do not have money, but have drive and ambition to climb the ladder of success. You can read this book for free. Hundreds of copies of this book have been sent out to "Little Free Libraries" and libraries across the USA. If you really need this book and do not have money but do have ambition. Go to a free public library and ask them if they have a copy. This book is not a get rich quick scheme and it is not for people who think work is not required to become rich. You do notice it says 10,001 steps right! This book is the first in what will be a series of books. It is for a beginner. When I say beginner, I mean homeless, poor, or low income. If you are not in this category, wait for my special books on money making for those who already have money. This book is for beginners with ambition who want to work and become successful, and to eventually become rich. You will get a bit of information, then you take action. HOW IS THIS BOOK PRICED? It is priced 1 penny above the minimum level for a paperback book. As for the electronic version, it is priced at the minimum level needed to insure a greater distribution. WHY DID I WRITE THIS BOOK? There are 2 main reasons. First of all, I am annoyed at all the money gurus who promise great riches if you pay them a chunk of money. I do not like this. You do not have a lot of money, and that is why you are reading their books, or following their courses. Am I right? Can you really afford to pay out an extra $49 or $99 or $199 a month, every month, just to have them overwhelm you with techno babble and hype. Do not pay them this money. They are making most of their money off of you. Some of these money gurus are actually trying to teach you, but honestly, they suck as teachers. They tell you what to do instead of HOW to do something. The worst of these are the techno nerds. They tell you things like "install your tracking pixels" and you say "huh what". They did not bother to tell you about the hundreds of hours needed to study and gain various computer skills. They assume you have those skills already. What if I am telling them how to build a house and tell the techno nerds... "Anchor your sill plate." They have no idea what I am talking about. Pay the techno geeks $199 a month, or pay me 1 penny above print costs for a book. (cheaper if you get the electronic version). My second reason is purely selfish. Let me tell you a real life story. I went to a foreign country with only $2,000 that I had borrowed from a banker (someone the banker liked and trusted vouched for me). Within 3 years, I went from almost nothing in net worth, to making over $20,000 a month take home. That is a very comfortable amount of money. I built up and developed the business entirely by myself, and when problems arose and I could not work, nobody was there to help me out. I lost it all. I had to climb the ladder of success again, but the second time I started from deeply in debt. I am also making this book because I want to build a trusted relationship with my readers. You see, if you help someone, and then later in the future, you fall from the ladder of success, you only fall as far as the people that you have helped. They are standing below to catch you. If I ever need a favor in the future, will YOU help me? Of course you will, because I am going to teach you how to make money. Remember NOT just with one book. Each book will have action steps for you to follow. Take the action steps before you begin the next book or it does not work. You follow me and together we will change your life. Now, let's start making money.
