Book excerpt: I am an independent filmmaker from East Texas area and I've put together a step-by-step process that I utilized in making two feature length films, both of which have either won awards or been nominated. Also, both of my films have received numerous distribution offers and is currently in global distribution on video demand platforms like Vudu, Hulu, Google Play, itunes, Amazon Prime, ect. If you have a vision of making a movie as a future filmmaker but don't know where to start, this book is perfect for you. The good news is that you don't need thousands of dollars to make a movie. Of course it helps, but I only had $1800 to start my first feature film. I got tired of waiting on Hollywood or some unrealistic break, so I decided to become Hollywood in East Texas, and I did. You can too if you follow my guide. I never claim this will be easy because making a movie is hard work, but it's the kind of hard work I love and am passionate about. I didn't have a booklet to help me along when I first started so I learned the best way, through experience. I sum up the steps that will save you time and money from pre-production to post production in this ebook. It is practical and affordable. I don't talk about theory here. Instead, I list the process in steps. If you are skeptical to any of this, please take a moment and watch the short video where I show evidence of my awards, films, and experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Beginner's Guide to Immortality is a celebration of unusual lives and creative thinkers who punched through ordinary cultural norms while becoming successful in their own niches. In his latest and greatest work, world-renowned science writer Cliff Pickover studies such colorful characters as Truman Capote, John Cage, Stephen Wolfram, Ray Kurzweil, and Wilhelm Rontgen, and their curious ideas. Through these individuals, we can better explore life's astonishing richness and glimpse the diversity of human imagination. Part memoir and part surrealistic perspective on culture, A Beginner's Guide to Immortality gives readers a glimpse of new ways of thinking and of other worlds as he reaches across cultures and peers beyond our ordinary reality. He illuminates some of the most mysterious phenomena affecting our species. What is creativity? What are the religious implications of mosquito evolution, simulated Matrix realities, the brain's own marijuana, and the mathematics of the apocalypse? Could we be a mere software simulation living in a matrix? Who is Elisabeth Kobler-Ross and Emanuel Swedenborg? Did church forefathers eat psychedelic snails? How can we safely expand our minds to become more successful and reason beyond the limits of our own intuition? How can we become immortal?
