Mr & Mrs FREUD: in love ... but still playing psychological games

 Book Cover



Mr & Mrs FREUD: in love ... but still playing psychological games


I've wrote many books about love ... being in love, but also hating the concept of love ... and even promised myself that i'll never do that again ... but ...

Well ... into one point ... after publishing 20 books of love essays ... i've had a very serious discussion with myself and ...

Yes ... i've said it again that i'll not write again about love ....

But ... damn it ... i just loved the concept.

I loved all related to .... love.

And even if i knew that a love story is many times ... illusory ... and might ruin completely our souls ... destroying them forever ... I've continued to write my perceptions about the subject.

The funny thing is that ... promising myself i'll never be again into a love story ... i've started to analyse the couples i saw on the stage of my life.

And what was intriguing me the most was why a man and a woman ... even when the love between them is so damn obvious... still do stupid things ... which are actually ruining all?!

Why if both of them are in love of each other .... what the hell could be the meaning of the non sense psychological games we are doing?!

And even worst ... why do we see very intelligent people ... playing so, so stupid on that stage of a love story?

Why do they need to do stupid things?!

Why they jump from love to hate so easily?!

Also ... why the hell ... even the ones knowing a lot about psychology ... don't do the right things?!

And had many occasions to see people which I'll generally define as Mr and Mrs Freud ... practicing the nonsense into a love story .... on and on and on.

The final question remains ... why?!

I could not find a real answer... but i've dared to continue analysing and defining into my writings .... the subject.

Into the end ... maybe i could declare that i don't really have a conclusion .... but i love to talk about love.

The subject itself ... is intriguing my soul.

So .... I went deeper and deeper into my essays... being obsessed of a hope similar with the one of ... touching the horizon line.

It's maybe ... ridiculous ... but .. i give myself the freedom to suffer of this addiction.


About the Author 


I've started to write my first book at 16 ... but then ... realizing i could not publish it ... i've abandoned the idea of being a ... writer.

20 years later ... i've started to write again ... believing i will finally succeed ... but i've failed one more time ... not getting the success i was chasing for.

Another 5 years later ... i've started one more time to write ... but this time ... more as a therapy.

It's what i've defined as ... self therapy.

I was analyzing and defining lots of weird ideas ... that were a lot related to me ... and my own soul.

The Importance of Book Promotion: Why Your Book Deserves the Spotlight

 Excited Author


 

You've poured your heart and soul into writing your book—spent countless hours crafting characters, refining the plot, and making sure every word is just right. But once your book is finished, there’s one crucial step left: promotion. Book promotion is essential for getting your hard work into the hands of readers who will appreciate it, and in today's saturated market, even the most brilliant books can get overlooked without proper marketing.

Here’s why book promotion is so important, and how it can help your book thrive in the literary world.

1. Visibility in a Crowded Market

Every year, millions of books are published worldwide, making it easy for your book to get lost in the noise. Promotion is your key to standing out. Whether it's through social media, book signings, or collaborations with influencers, promotion creates visibility for your work. Readers can't fall in love with your book if they don’t know it exists, and promotion puts it on their radar.

2. Building Your Author Brand

Book promotion isn’t just about selling copies—it’s also about establishing yourself as an author. Readers want to connect with the person behind the words, and effective promotion helps you build a personal brand that people can relate to. Whether you’re sharing insights into your writing process, engaging with readers on social media, or offering sneak peeks of upcoming projects, promotion helps you cultivate a loyal fan base who will support your work now and in the future.

3. Creating Buzz and Generating Reviews

Word of mouth is one of the most powerful tools for book success, but it doesn’t happen on its own. By promoting your book early and often, you create buzz that can lead to reviews, recommendations, and social media shares. Early reviews, whether from bloggers, influencers, or readers on platforms like Goodreads, are crucial for building momentum. Positive reviews serve as social proof, giving new readers confidence that your book is worth their time and money.

4. Reaching Your Target Audience

Not every book is for every reader, and that’s okay! Promotion helps you connect with your ideal audience—the readers who will truly resonate with your story. Whether you’re writing a romance novel, a self-help book, or a thriller, targeted promotion ensures that your book reaches the right readers who are likely to enjoy it and spread the word to others. Effective book promotion strategies, like niche marketing and genre-specific outreach, allow you to zero in on your ideal readers.

5. Long-Term Success

Successful book promotion isn’t just about launch week—it’s about sustaining interest in your book over time. A well-executed promotional campaign can help your book gain momentum and continue selling well long after its initial release. Authors who actively promote their work can see increased sales, higher rankings on bestseller lists, and more opportunities for future projects, including speaking engagements or film adaptations.

6. Leveraging Multiple Channels

Book promotion gives you the chance to explore various marketing channels, from traditional methods like book tours and media interviews to digital strategies like email newsletters, blog posts, and social media campaigns. By using a combination of channels, you can reach a wider audience, engage with readers in different ways, and maximize your book’s exposure. Each channel offers unique opportunities to connect with readers and create lasting relationships.

7. Engaging with the Writing Community

Promotion isn’t just about putting your book in front of readers—it’s also about becoming part of a larger community. By promoting your book, you naturally engage with fellow authors, literary professionals, and readers who share your passion for storytelling. Networking within the literary community can open doors to new collaborations, joint marketing opportunities, and even valuable friendships. It’s an enriching experience that benefits not just your book, but your overall writing journey.

8. Boosting Sales

At the end of the day, book promotion drives sales. Whether you’re a self-published author or signed with a traditional publisher, promoting your book directly impacts its financial success. A well-promoted book has the potential to reach bestseller lists, spark increased demand, and ultimately help you achieve your financial goals as an author. The more visibility your book has, the more likely it is to be purchased.

9. Building a Lasting Legacy

Books have the power to change lives, but only if they reach readers. Promotion ensures that your work doesn't just fade into the background—it allows your message, story, or expertise to live on and impact people for years to come. Whether you’re sharing wisdom, offering escapism, or challenging minds, book promotion helps secure your legacy as an author who made a lasting contribution.

Conclusion

Book promotion is essential for giving your work the recognition it deserves. It’s more than just selling copies—it’s about connecting with readers, building your brand, and ensuring your book makes a meaningful impact. By embracing promotion, you give your book the best chance of success in a crowded literary landscape, helping it find its rightful place in the hearts and minds of readers everywhere.

Rose's Odyssey: Tales of love and loss


Rose’s Odyssey is a captivating collection of 20 short stories by Dr. Sangita Swechcha, a Nepali writer based in England. The book delves into diverse human experiences, exploring themes of identity, economic struggles, and social inequalities, set against the vibrant backdrops of Nepal, Australia, and the United Kingdom. Each narrative is marked by unexpected twists, vivid imagery, and deep cultural reflections, offering poignant critiques of societal norms and human relationships.

Praise for Rose’s Odyssey “Swechcha masterfully weaves her narratives and imaginations into a patchwork of words. Each story resembles a finely crafted sketch, brought to life through the art of words.”

- Shekhar Kharel, Writer and Documentary Filmmaker “The author has adeptly crafted these stories, which address the themes of harrowing economic and psychological hardships, the daunting uncertainty of the future, the struggles of identity, the realisation of one’s minority status, the quest for existence, and a deep connection to the past.” 
- Susmita Nepal, Writer, The Global Circle Journal, Tribhuvan University “‘Rose’s Odyssey’ stands out as a highly symbolic and my personal favourite piece.

The New PSYCHOLOGY: A Unified Field of Brain, Mind, Behavior, Perception, Culture...: Abbreviated Edition

 Book Cover


The New PSYCHOLOGY:

A Unified Field of Brain, Mind, Behavior, Perception, Culture...: Abbreviated Edition

480 Pages, 8.5X11”, Fully Illustrated These are the bits and pieces that make up a deep understanding of how our mind works. Welcome to the deep woods.

PSYCHOLOGY CONTROLS THE BIOLOGY OF OUR BRAIN. At the witch trials in Salem, when an accused “witch” was brought into court, adrenaline and cortisol would have shot into the blood of those who watched. Neurotransmitters would have surged through their brain. Their brain waves would have jumped from 12 to 40 cycles per second. A P300 wave would have screamed “ALERT!”. Their GSR spiked. Their heart jumped. A chill went up their spine. The girls shrieked “Witch! Witch!”

We know this because today, the same thing happens in America among theater goers in a movie from Hollywood about witches, zombies, demons, a scary “Chucky” doll, and more. As adrenalin and cortisol shoot into your blood, neurotransmitters surge through your brain, your heart jumps, and it grabs the immediate attention of your brain, as you watch the Zombie apocalypse in a theater.  

In varying degrees, this is basic to understanding how our brain works in dealing with anxiety, depression, politics, love, sex, interpersonal relations, peer group pressure, your response on a polygraph or GSR, and every new witch hunt (see Ch. 2, 8, 19, 20 and 22).  

PSYCHOLOGY CONTROLS THE BIOLOGY OF OUR BRAIN. Knowing how this works is essential to understanding how our mind works. The failure to understand that has led to the media's preoccupation with claiming it is all in your DNA or biochemistry; a media preoccupied with the magic words of DNA and biochemicals in the brain cannot grasp a deeper level of understanding.

The same psychology that controlled the emotions of the people of Salem, also controls our fears and anxiety, our depression and worries, our hope and success, and our very perception of reality, to this day. Understanding how the brain can be hijacked by the simplest psychology, gives us the potential to control our own mind. To not understand this, is a failure of our educational system and our society.

We begin with Important recent studies at MIT, Harvard, and the National Science Foundation that found that we are failing to get across the most important issues of any science. 

The prestigious PEW Research found that America is 24th in the world in science. Why

"Examples are not another way to teach, examples are the only way to teach." Einstein

How to Forget to Remember to Forget Magic (The Journey Eternal, #1)

   Book Cover


How to Forget to Remember to Forget Magic

(The Journey Eternal, #1)


Laurence P. Cromwell was once like many of us, navigating through life without direction or purpose, eager to uncover some deeper meaning to it all. Out of sheer desperation, and through the influence of a series of strange childhood occurrences, he became obsessed with the notion of true Magic, the ability to manipulate the world around him in ways often assumed impossible by others. Scouring countless shelves, he searched for that one old tome or relic which might reveal itself to be something more - something Magical. He knew in his heart he was destined for great things, if only he could make that first, crucial discovery. But as Laurence - along with an unlikely pair destined for a similar fate - would soon find out, not all Magical Objects exist to be used, to be possessed. And some are better off left where they were buried long, long ago…

Beginning on our planet, in the prosaic time period known as present day, the Journey Eternal series methodically recounts the story of a group of unsuspecting heroes as they gain the courage and experience necessary to traverse billions of years, multiple worlds, and countless twisting timelines to discover the truth of humanity’s Magical past, as well as the monstrous future awaiting not only our race, but our entire universe. Will they succeed in restoring Magic to its prior state before time runs out, or will the forces of darkness prove too powerful, too tempting, even for them?

Prepare to pull back the veil, revealing a world of Dark Magic and demons, of a battle that goes beyond good and evil, where heroes and villains clash not only with each other, but their own inner turmoil and precarious destinies. But beware, dear reader. As you take these first steps of your own journey, remember this:
Not all fantasy is fiction, and nothing is ever quite as it seems…
