With the holiday season fast approaching I thought it may be helpful to publish a summary article providing an overview of the six eBooks that we have available. Some of you may be considering eBooks for holiday season gift giving.

We are able to sustain this website only through eBook revenues and donations. To each and every one of you (in over 30 countries around the world) who have already purchased one of our eBooks… we say Thank You!

A Note about the Download Process
The download is a two-stage process. When you first click on the Buy Button you will be transferred to the PayPal site for you to make your payment. Once that is completed you will be redirected back to the website. You must wait for a minute or two after the PayPal logo has disappeared before you begin your download. There will be a pause for several minutes while the website prepares a personalized copy of the eBook you just purchased. This delay is normal. Do not click a second time as this will interrupt the creation of your personalized eBook. After a few minutes, the download will then begin. Your copy of the eBook you just purchased will have a QR code unique to you, and your password will be your email address that you used when purchasing the eBook.
