    About this ebook

    I know how it feels to be broke, to be falling further and further behind, because I was there just two years ago. I had no car, no belongings (except a laptop), no place to call home, and no credit! It was those exact circumstances that drove me to right about my anger with myself, with the world, and with God. As I wrote out my complaints I was forced to think about them, and that was something I had been avoiding for years. The funniest part was that I had all the answers to my problem right in front of me. I won’t bore you with the details of how I came to find the venues to sell my first book ‘Life’s A Joke!’. You can always read that later if you want. The fact is I did. I possessed all the knowledge to design my own cover, write my book in Microsoft Word, and publish my material on a saleable market on-line. It took only a month or so of searching and questioning the right sources. It was after trial and error, that I finally found the winning formula. This formula now, that I finally perfected early this year I have used time and time again to publish 20 of my own works, and several literary works for others, who now make a monthly residual income as well. You can imagine the relief it is to know you will have money at the beginning of every month no matter if you lift a finger and do any work at all during the week. That is the beauty of self-digital publishing, once it’s done, you never have to do another thing, unless of course you want to sell MORE books. As far as sales are concerned though, the publishers do a pretty good job of selling your work for you. So I am bringing to you the means of publishing your first work right now, and when you’re finished you will have the knowledge to repeat the process over and over again. By doing this you will multiply your income and eventually find that little bit of financial security you’ve been waiting for.

    Jay M Horne

    Jay M. Horne, an author turned publisher, sprang up among the roots of a literary family tree. His grandparents were both English teachers, his aunt a grade-school principal, his late uncle a poet, his mother and sister artists and he, a life-long lover of martial arts, especially the style of Tesaihiryu Ninjutsu, which he created and coined their motto 'The Perfection of Life'. He was raised as a middle child. His older brother, Justin and younger sister, Jillian shared his childhood. Jay's writing career began in 2010 with his release of 'Life's A Joke!', at the age of 30. It is a title that he currently is slightly ashamed to claim as his own, but regardless continues to be the top seller in his library. To begin with, writing was therapy, but since has become a passion of his. Reading, editing, publishing, cover design, everything about books captures him. At the age of ten, Jay had begun writing and designing on computers. Many old childhood books he created are published now, after years of sitting in a file cabinet of his father's. Currently, Jay lives in New Port Richey, Florida with his wife and three children and continues to work on the PANGEA Chronicles. Jay works in Pinellas County at Sunstar Paramedics as an EMT and volunteers at the Port Richey Fire Department. PANGEA is Jay's 'Magnum Opus'. Currently, book two is available worldwide and he works daily on the writing of the prequel 'The Fae'. The story begins before time itself and follows the first beings of the Universe to the physical realm where they will undergo the challenge of defining what it means to be Human.
