I believe ebook publishing is the way of the future (as shown
by Steven King's "Riding the Bullet"), though I believe there
will always be a place for traditional publishing with paper
books. People will always love holding a real book out in the
sun for their holiday reading. I just believe electronic-publishing
is way cheaper and immediate compared to "hard copy"
publishing. Thus it has many benefits for the reading consumer,
as well as talented new authors, who may find great difficulty in
getting their work accepted by traditional publishing houses-
especially the well-known ones who rarely take on new authors
in the current harsh publishing environment.
In addition, things are moving so fast with reading aids in
electronic publishing. New technology is constantly developing
the hand-held reader, so soon you may be able to down-load
novels at the beach.

May the two forms of publishing work in tandem in the future,
to the benefit of the consumer. In time all of Craig Lock's 17
books will be available both electronically, as well as paper
copies.

We have an ultimate vision (or dream) of Gisborne on the
East Coast of the North Island of scenic and tranquil New
Zealand being a "renowned and recognised" centre of electronic,
as well as conventional publishing, a world-renowned centre
in providing quality courses in distance education and adult
online teaching. perhaps one day even a centre of excellence
in developing technology in the South Pacific.
(Thanks to my "technogeek" associates, Stefan Van Lingen, Bill and Erich
for all their help, drive, talent and vision, as I don't understand
modern technology).

We believe an idea, a big helping of enthusiasm, together
with a great deal of time and effort in implementing it, belief,
faith in yourself and persistence (not necessarily in that
order) is the key to marketing success and seeing a vision
turn into reality.

That is our ultimate vision and something we at Eagle Productions
in association with Bill Rosoman of Nugrow Technologies here
in Poverty Bay (oops er sorry, Eastland) and Stefan Van Lingen
of Gauteng, South Africa are daily striving towards with all our
energies and creative endeavours.

" Whatever the mind can conceive, can be achieved."

- Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

"We can all use the internet to reach out to the "global
community" and build a better world in this new "Information
Revolution" that is upon us. Let's use it wisely, respect our
diversity and unique cultures; but celebrate a new world
in union. One where, like your founding forefathers in America,
you can first celebrate the Independance Day of the strong
burning creative spirit that is within you. If set alight, it is a
flame that will burn brightly and make your personal VISION
of the future a REALITY...and perhaps even your unique DESTINY."

"Life is about finding, then following the dream...
and one's dream/vision comes to reality through believing in
yourself, making the commitment and then creating it."

The Power of Appreciation

Is there anything more mysterious in theworld than the formula to having a successful romantic relationship? Asa divorced woman, I now marvel at those who are able to createpassionate, loving, long-term relationships. From my studies with booksand the school of hard knocks, I believe that one of the most importantingredients in relationships, of all kinds, is appreciation. What is Appreciation? Appreciation is likea much-needed rainfall to a farmer's crops that have been withering ina drought. Just as the crops start to shrivel and die without water,human relationships also start to feel brittle without a steadyapplication of the nourishing, even life-giving, impacts ofappreciation. The dictionary defines appreciation as "a favorablecritical estimate," "sensitive awareness" and "an expression ofadmiration, approval or gratitude." When you appreciate someone, youare tuned into a positive quality of another human being and expressyour gratitude for it. ...

Attic Fans

Attic and roof ventilation allows excess heat and moisture to escape at home to reduce summer cooling costs, pre-mature deterioration of roofing materials and condensation can lead to costly repairs. Effective attic ventilation relies on natural convection to pull air from the top to the bottom position, often in the open in Sofia, and the exhaust hot air from the ceiling vent in a higher position, such as through a gable, or open. Many new and existing homes are not ceilings, and its architecture can not afford soffits perforations for ventilation. While most households are conscious on the convenience brought by nicely ventilated homes, many tend to overlook the attic as one of the areas to be considered. No one finds it comfortable staying for long hours in the closed attic because of the overwhelming heat that builds up in it. For this reason, it is necessary for everyone to consider installing attic ventilation fans in order to cool down the attic's heat. This can have amazin...
