TRAILER: Being a P.I.-Again

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YR58BLZ
Tom Mayor is a man in his mid-fifties who had done nothing with his life. Never had a steady job living off his parents, and he was a closet drunk. Then, as a joke, he told his mother that he had “the stuff” to be a private detective, like the “Thin Man”.
With the help of his mother, he gets his first case, and after some difficulties, he solves the murder of the next-door neighbor’s granddaughter. The case made him famous—and rich! The father of the murder victim gives him a million dollars. Life, for the first time in his miserable life, is good for Tom.
But now, someone is trying to kill him. Who? Why? To find out, Tom must become a P. I.—Again!

Without the great power of imagination

The world would be a cold, sad place.

https://www.authorerikamszabo.com/imagination.html

It was my grandmother who discovered my storytelling skills and inspired me to continue writing when everyone thought I was wasting my time writing books. I followed my dream to become a writer. As an artist, I paint pictures with my brushes, and as a writer, I paint pictures with my words in people’s minds.

Starlight Translated by Susan Kahil


A ​heartfelt, mystical, philosophical messages in poetry where I fly over rainbows, dangle suspended between stars, suckle light from the Moon, turn tears into diamonds and race through eternity with my dreams chasing behind me.My aim is to inspire others to use their imaginations light so that they can manifest them into a reality seeing. A reminder for anyone who reads of the limitless potential we have when we just simply care and love. Our sacred gift, which we are supposed to use for the good of all humankind, nature and the creatures, we share this precious life with.

A bilingual storybook for children 4-12

Pico, the parrot, is sad and frustrated. He screeches and squawks all day but because he speaks Spanish, nobody understands him. His story teaches children acceptance, compassion, and helping others.

The purpose of this English and Spanish bilingual book is to show children the beauty of another language and that learning a new language doesn’t have to be boring, it could be fun. The story also delivers a message that when we don’t take the time to listen to each other, we tend to judge others quickly before we get to know them.
