Book Jewel of the Month: I Love My Kids, But I Don't Always Like Them (Franki Bagdade) - reviewed by JL



What is a book jewel? A sometimes-overlooked book with remarkable insight and potential significance. Starting in August, we will share near-daily, as possible, reviews of the monthly book jewel - short, succinct reviews that can be read in 1-2 minutes with links to the reviewer by reviewers whose words are worthy of being heard and whose opinions are worthy of being considered. Sometimes a couple of minutes contains more impressive thought than ten times that many. We will let you decide that.

This month's book jewel is I Love My Kids, But I Don't Always Like Them by Franki Bagdade. 

Amazon review by JL

Great Book for Real World Parents

This is a funny book with practical advice for real world parents. Franki doesn't pull any punches about her parenting experience and tells it like it is, which is really refreshing. Franki's anecdotes will ring true for parents, who struggle with raising kids these days and are looking for helpful tips. And isn't that all parents? The title says it all!

In Memoriam: Carl Don Leaver

  1948-2021 It is with great sadness that MSI Press notes the death of Carl Leaver, CEO of the Press and typesetter and graphic designer par excellence . Many authors have expressed not only condolences but also a sense of legacy from covers he designed that they love.  Here is his obituary: On August 16, 2021, Carl Don Leaver of San Juan Bautista passed into eternal rest. A forester with the US Forest Service in Idaho and Montana, he turned to nature photography while working in the Bitterroot National Forest. His photographs graced national magazine covers and on a weekly basis the local paper of Hamilton, MT, the Ravalli Republican. He later worked on photography projects for the US Army (AFEES) and taught photography at the New York Institute of Technology in Amman, Jordan. His final career change led him to computer graphics and publishing as co-owner of MSI Press LLC; his many typeset books and book covers have helped MSI Press authors win a large number of awards over the years,

A Publisher's Conversation with Authors: Book Marketing vs Book Promotion

Leading to the confusion is that some of the same activities are needed for both. In fact, good marketing is dependent upon good promotion.
