For one, just think about how stiff the competition is out there – after all, your child is not the only one hoping to be thrust into the spotlight. In fact, according to HBO’s documentary, Showbiz Kids, there are over 20,000 child actors who audition for roles in Hollywood every year… and a whopping 95% of them don’t book a single job. This is a sad reality that Makeda Tene’ Ekakitie, a “momager” of a successful child actor, knows all too well. Her son, Innocent Onanovie Ekakitie, is, fortunately, part of the 5% of young talents who have booked projects left and right with no signs of stopping. However, her son’s success was not exactly a walk in the park – it took years of hard work, plenty of patience, and numerous mistakes-turned-to-learnings before they finally found his rightful place in the industry. The good news is, your child’s journey to fame does not have to be difficult. Makeda – an actress, writer, and musician herself – has created an in-depth guide to help you make your kid’s acting dream a reality.

In a smooth writing style that flows evenly and easily, Maier's first book is a fascinating story sure to catch a reader's attention. Set in Macon, Georgia, the main character, Mike Spiker, is a busy executive at Bio Lab Research. A deadly outbreak of the flu in the Philippines doesn't concern him or his colleagues. After all, this sleepy little town in the deep South has always been far from the front lines of any big trouble. But the outbreak becomes a modern-day disaster, an influenza pandemic that affects the lives of everyone. How they deal with it, who succumbs and a myriad of subplots involving infidelity, fraud, race relations and more keep the story moving with palpable excitement.

In our terror-filled, post 9-11 existence, Maier presents a fascinating story sure to force you to spend a sleepless night or two.
