Seed Money: The Entrepreneur is the first book in The Delegate series, a collection of independent novels written in first-person narrative by Cyndie Shaffstall, best selling author of Willows: The Creole. Global warming. Our habitable space has been halved. Entitlement. Population growth is unchecked. Trystrooms. Anything goes but privacy prevails. By 2062, we've managed to completely wipe out our atmosphere and we're camped under canopies like rice in a cooker--but crises drives innovation and technology has the potential to save us. Master manipulations on a worldwide, devastating scale. Like hundreds of conspirators throughout history, the reach of evil is often extended by the company one keeps: Carlo C Augostino--inventor of worldwide mass-transit system. Anne Mowrey--intern to the inventor of germ warfare. Caleb O'Connor--inventor of the canopies. Paul Moore--builder of the world's mass-transportation systems. Braden Sumner--the world's wealthiest businessman. Just when you think you've got it figured out... It only gets worse. Cyndie Shaffstall wraps science fiction around the mystery of a near-future conspiracy where engineers, inventors, and business people alike scrambled to develop a solution before the world's population was completely wiped out by an irradiated atmosphere. It was a gargantuan effort, but the chosen solution became a temporary fix at best. By 2062, we have become burdened by the weight of unchecked population growth and global warming has reduced our inhabitable space by half. What's more, the workplace was frustratingly neutered by the Genderless Act, pushing us all toward trystrooms--where anything goes and it's kept secret by the Privacy Act. Though challenged, innovation does thrive and unemployment and poverty have been eliminated. The Government Reorganization and Realignment Effort fosters business and enables one group of brilliant young designers to reclaim some of the ever-shrinking space--but bringing it to market exposes manipulation and corruption of unimaginable proportions. Contains adult content and graphic sex scenes. Each book of The Delegate series reads as though you've come across someone's journal. While you read, the saga envelopes you, and it becomes your journal, and your story, as you are transported through time.

Glyphs: The Scribe is the second book in The Delegate series, a collection of independent novels written in first-person narrative by Cyndie Shaffstall, best selling author of Willows: The Creole. The Prophecies Wiraqucha, the creator god, loves and will not destroy the people and the empire he has created, and so he appoints others to watch over his creations while he continues his explorations of the heavens and the earth. After one hundred years, his appointed custodians must return to their home in the sky leaving the people of the empire without the daily presence of those they believe protect them. In accordance with this and other prophesies, and almost all at once, the Wira Empire loses their sun god, Inti, who succumbs to the ravages of the human form, as Wiraqucha plans to flood the village in order to protect it as a place of rest for his future visits. The Sun God Pascac, son of Inti, leads villagers to safety in Sacsayhuaman, the sanctuary overlooking Qusqu--the capital city built by the god of civilization, Manqu Qhapaq. Despite their will to live and prosper, those things may not be within the grasp of the new settlers. Supay, the god of death, and other gods rage against them--seemingly intent upon wiping out the entire civilization and those who rule them. The Scribe Through it all, the scribe, one of only a few who knows the ancient art of glyph drawing, endures hardship and tragedy to fulfill her life's purpose of recording history and creating books for the Wira descendants so they will know the story of how they came to be. Cyndie Shaffstall's new historical fiction is based upon the legends of Peru's Wira and Inca gods and the theories of modern-day ancient astronaut theorists concerning their origins. You will be transported through the ages to join the villagers in the trials and tribulations of establishing their new home in the sanctuary on the hill. Each book of The Delegate series reads as though you've come across someone's journal. While you read, the saga envelopes you, and it becomes your journal, and your story, as you are transported through time.

An Amazon #1 Best Seller, Willows: The Creole is the third book in The Delegate series, a collection of independent novels written in first-person narrative by Cyndie Shaffstall, author of Seed Money: The Entrepreneur, Glyphs: The Scribe, and Chaos: The Oracle. The Heir The Arceneaux family has a long history of falling victim to circumstance--madness, embezzlement, even murder--but when the last of the unmarried females inherits the family plantation, she is determined their unfortunate legacy will end with her. After her father is imprisoned in New York, she embarks on a new life in New Orleans with what is left of all the hope she can muster. What she finds is an abandoned house, a fractured family, and an oppressed people. Determined to find her own way, she confronts the challenges head on, and soon realizes change is not something needed only for her, but for many. People of Color In the decades before the Civil War, Louisiana was the most advanced state on the topic of freedom. People of color were successful in business and owned property--some of which they acquired through the gifts or wills of white fathers whose black and mulatto wives and mistresses exacted better lives for their children. A Step Backward The Civil War brought change--any black lineage became cause for discrimination, even in Louisiana--and many blacks and mixed-race persons were relegated to occupations not unlike those of their ancestors. Women, though white, were expected to be hostesses and leave business to men--especially the business of voting. A Family Reunited Willows Plantation, still worked by the descendants of the slaves who built it, becomes the anchor to affect change and in a historical fiction story spanning five generations, author Cyndie Shaffstall, takes you on a journey through abolition and suffrage efforts of the 1700s and 1800s. A Voodoo priestess, a French artist, the first woman presidential candidate, and the world's fair shed light on issues and provide opportunities to reunite and strengthen an entire family. Each book of The Delegate series reads as though you've come across someone's journal. While you read, the saga envelopes you, and it becomes your journal, and your story, as you are transported through time.

Microjoys: Finding Hope (Especially) When Life Is Not Okay
Bighearted and hopeful. Unflinchingly honest and healing. A profound compendium of intimate, inspiring essays and thoughtful prompts that will keep you afloat in difficult times and sustain you in the everyday. Microjoys are a practice of uncovering joy and finding hope at any moment. They are accessible to everyone, despite all else. When we hone the ability to look for them, they are always available. Microjoys are the hidden wisdom, long-ago memories, subtle treasures, and ordinary delights that surround us: A polka-dot glass on a thrift store shelf. A dear friend's kindness at just the right time. The neighborhood spice shop. A beloved family tradition. The simple quietude of being in love. A cherished chai recipe. Cyndie Spiegel first began taking note of microjoys during the most difficult year of her life--when she experienced back-to-back unprecedented and devastating losses--and she found that these fleeting moments of hope helped her move through each day with a semblance of comfort and a lot more joy. Through beautifully written narrative essays and prompts, Cyndie shares the microjoys that have kept her going through tough times and shows us how we can learn to see the microjoys in our own lives. Microjoys don't change the truth of loss or make grief any more convenient, but they allow us to temporarily touch joy, keeping us buoyed and moving forward, one moment at a time.

STOLEN from the Lakota people: the glorious beauty of the Black Hills located in South Dakota and Wyoming, also known as Paha Sapa, that radiated for miles receiving their name due to the closely woven foliage that forms their unique, rich color of blackish-green. Paha Sapa was the center of their universe where all creatures were created from. The loss of Paha Sapa to the Lakota people was the turning point in their heritage and their spiritual culture. After being confined to a reservation and following a lifetime of preventing the Whites from stealing resources from his sacred land, a 40 year old once-feared Lakota warrior begins recruiting allies for a legal journey to reclaim Paha Sapa for his people. In his quest during the 1880s, he experiences new things for the first time being thrust into a White man's way of life as if seeing it through the eyes of a child. He enlists the help of a Lakota tribe member educated by the White man and a fiercely independent White woman rancher who restores his faith that he is not alone in his fight for his land, freedom and spirit. She finds a new mission in life - to bring awareness to the theft of Paha Sapa. This independent woman discovers love for the first time in an aging Lakota warrior - beginning a love story that becomes legendary. He fights next to her when her treacherous neighbor tries to steal her ranch, legacy, and her very life. Lakota customs and legends unfold as this courageous warrior tells his story and about the wrongdoings that they have faced. The heroine's ranchhands are misfits who aren't accepted anywhere other than working for a woman in that era, which adds even more character to their lives. This strong woman brings together nationalities from many heritages to live and work under the same umbrella of unity. The tribe member educated by the Whites devotedly dedicates his life for the legal crusade that the Lakota face in the regaining of their sacred Paha Sapa. Snakes in Paha Sapa leads the reader through endless adventure, a multitude of action, sprinkled with historic elements, and a bit of humor. Author Cyndie M. Styles, also of Crossing Burning Bridges, brings intrigue to the many startling events that happen along the way which keeps the story emotionally-charged, interesting, educational, romantic and entertaining from the courageous people living at the Paradise Valley Ranch.
