Maria the Nurse
Maria has spent over forty years as a dedicated nurse, helping children and adults with learning disabilities reach their full potential. Her career in psychiatry was not just about caring for others, but also about learning to extend that care to herself.
Maria’s journey took her from Ireland to Australia and Saudi Arabia. She lovingly cared for premature babies, unaware that she would later have a premature baby of her own in her forties.
At its core, this book is about Maria’s quest to be seen and loved, ultimately discovering that she needed to see and love herself first. Despite confronting bullying, loss, divorce, illness, and grief through countless nursing courses, Maria lived and worked in an unconscious environment.
Her journey towards consciousness was transformative, awakening her to the power and authenticity of understanding her own story. Embracing her true self without judgment became her path forward.
This is Maria’s story – a truly inspirational account of navigating from a large family to living her one true life, overcoming emotional struggles along the way.

More Money than Bills – Part Two
They said I couldn’t have written it. They were right.
When I handed my first manuscript to my proofreader, her words stung: “Eric, you didn’t write this alone. You don’t have the intelligence.” For a moment, I felt like that unsure kid again, until she finished her thought: “God helped you write this book.”
She saw what I felt. This wasn’t just a book; it was a calling. A self-taught guide to financial freedom, built from a belief that prosperity isn’t a secret for the few but a future available to all.
That first book, More Money Than Bills, was just the beginning. This new volume, Part Two, is the culmination of that journey. It’s smarter, clearer, and packed with the refined wisdom and practical steps I wish I’d had from the start. It’s designed not just to guide you but to transform your relationship with money faster and more effectively than ever before.
If you’re tired of financial stress and ready to build a life of abundance and peace, your journey starts here.
Your prosperity is waiting. Get ready, get set. And go!

Child Abduction During the Covid Pandemic
Written by a practising barrister of more than four decades, this book tells and analyses the stories in relation to the abduction of children during the Covid 19 Pandemic. The issues in the cases are based on real life stories of families and their disputes arising out of the breakdown of their relationships and abduction of children in certain circumstances. However, the names are fictitious, and I have protected the anonymity of the parties’ identities, and their real-life stories with fictional situations rather than the actual stories. Any resemblance to the people either living or dead are purely unintentional. The countries involved could not be anonymized because the laws are applied and set out in the court orders based on the jurisdiction of the geographical areas of the country where the parties reside.
This book outlines the procedure to deal with urgent applications where necessary in such cases. The stories and court orders predominantly deal with the cases during the pandemic. I have included certain scenarios and court orders pre-pandemic for the reader to understand the difference between the court orders pre-pandemic and post- pandemic. This book also deals with relevant family law statutes and family law Practice Directions to inform the reader that such cases could not be dealt with in isolation. I have also dealt with a brief historical introduction to the evolution of matrimonial legislation where necessary. I hope the readers will find the book interesting.

The Temp Is It
Why are we all expected to do something to make money?
Why must we work?
There must be a better way.
This book is a tale of a less-than-ordinary life that some choose to lead.
This is an everyman struggle set in the 1980s. Mrs T is in number 10, it is grim up north, and there is not a full job to be found. Simon therefore sets off on the temp trail. This is a true tale of trying to find some worthwhile work and something more than a meagre payslip.
These are the jobs no one wants, and you are the misfit no one wants. If there is a positive, it is that the time spent in each is mercifully short.
Will the sun come out along the way? Who knows?
