Hello Friends,                                                                           

How would you feel, if you had played a real part, helped others some how by sharing your inspirational stories about a true act of kindness; possibly about helping someone in dire need that is going through financial trouble?  Could you write down your thoughts, a real story about real people, about someone you know, about someone who is going through the ?Recession Blues??  Would you like to share your story with others around the world?

Author, NG Parker, has recently published a Children?s Book title ?Little Bunny Forever In My Heart?, but now she has shifted gears to write an Inspirational Book titled ?The Joneses are moving in?.  NG Parker, felt that she had to do her part by helping others to share their wonderful stories of how they had helped someone else during tough, recession times and how it has affected them. Now with the world?s financial problems and the national recession taking place, ?Keeping up with the Joneses? just does not seem as important as it did a few years ago. In this new era, people are cutting back and spending less. The premise of NG Parker?s book is to share real people stories of how we can help our neighbors instead of keeping up with them, because the Joneses are also going through their own financial problems.  As we all know, anyone of us could become rich like the Joneses and eventually end up losing everything.

NG welcomes you to submit your success, happy feeling, and inspirational stories to email address:  inspirationalstories@ngeparkerbooks.com.  Stories that are submitted will go through a preliminary review process. If your story is selected, then it will be published in NG Parker?s upcoming book which should go into print Summer/Fall 2010.  By submitting your inspirational story, you could possibly help someone else to boost their spirits, in some way or another and help others to realize that they are not the only one who is going through a tough time. NG Parker is looking for real people?s stories, written in their own words; the goal is to lift other people?s spirits who have been down on their luck. 

How have you or someone you know helped another person in tough times lately?  Have you fed someone who was hungry or starving lately? Has someone changed your life or have you changed someone else?s life lately?  Tell us about it.   

The stories that will be selected are those that are written about someone who has helped a friend, a family member, a neighbor or a stranger, after the person had gone through a tough time possibly through a foreclosure, bankruptcy, eviction, or losing their job or home.  Author, NG Parker realizes that these are not always happy ending stories, but sometimes when we help others it can leave us with a spiritual and euphoric feeling in our hearts, because we did something good for another person.  Please submit only ?POSITIVE STORIES?.
