If you're in business and want to grow your influence, impact, and profits, the words you use - both written and spoken - are yourvehicle. But you must get them right. The Influential Marketer shows you how. Organised using a consumable "lesson per page per day" format, it's a "bible" you'll keep on your desk and return to repeatedly. Like all good copy, it's an easy read... conversational and to the point. It challenges your thinking and inspires you to look at how you communicate and show up in your professional life. Packed with examples and new ways to grow your influence, once you pick this up, you'll not look at yourself, your business, or the way you communicate the same way again.

Kids can cultivate their storytelling skills with these kooky comics. More than 60 pages of cartoon panels illustrate funny situations -- but all the dialogue balloons are empty. That's where the aspiring comedy writers come in, supplying each scene with witty repartee. For even more fun, they can color the pictures.

The Legendary Lieutenant is the tale of a young man, schooled in the science of warfare and sent reluctantly to India to defend Victoria's Empire. Poorly suited for life as a soldier and wounded early in his career, he finds solace in an unsuitable romance. When tragedy strikes, his only comfort is the medication prescribed by his military surgeons and the rum ration issued by his employer. Can his story, confused and embellished by generations of descendants, now be unravelled?
