Author/Entrepreneur Hosts Inaugural
Author’s Book Signing and Networking Event
For Authors who are seeking community and National recognition
Philadelphia, PA – August, 2014 -
When Dan Ramsey became incarcerated, he took it as an opportunity to
reflect on his fast and furious lifestyle of gangs, drugs, pain and power. He used reading as an outlet and a tool to
help him grow internally – studying the Bible, the Koran and a variety of other
books. Danny believes that God spared his life to
enlighten and empower him to bring many books to fruition – book s that will
aid others in their search for inner meaning.
Inspired by his daughter, he wrote and illustrated 9 children’s books. He is also the author of “For Men Only… Having A Loving
Relationship With God And Your Woman” a book that was written
exclusively for men to help them see that the role of a woman in their lives is
an essential element of their spiritual health and a significant contributor to
their own self-actualization.
“I started writing For
Men Only…Having A Loving Relationship With God And Your Woman
while I was incarcerated. I became a
lecturing in prison and upon my return to society began teaching various men’s groups
about the importance of keeping God in the relationship with their women. I brought so much information to the
forefront that the participants couldn’t retain it all in one session and I was
asked to write it down. So, I
self-published this book that I had written while incarcerated.”
Daniel emphasizes that
the book is not just For Men Only. “Lots
of women have read it as well. It was
written for men because men are supposed to be the head of the household and
they need to be straight in order for the household to be in order. Woman who read this book are getting a
different perspective on the male experience.
It helps women raise their standards in what they expect in a
relationship.”
“Ever since I published
this book, I’ve meant several fellow authors who've shared their stories about
the journey of writing a book. Many have
become discouraged, lacking support and information about writing and
publishing books. I decided to host a
forum to bring authors together, giving them an opportunity to promote and sell
their books, to network and to learn more about writing and publishing. “I wanted to offer a forum where Authors
could come together and encourage one another.
We need to surround ourselves with like-minded people and build up one another’s
confidence. I also wanted to have a
place and time dedicated to encouraging people to read; children and adults.”
Treasure’s Banquet Hall
will host its Inaugural Author’s Book Signing and Networking Event Authors of
all genres are invited to participate in this great opportunity to share
published and upcoming work. There are
currently 10 authors who have signed up to participate.
There will also be
representatives there from the Philadelphia Chapter of The National Writers
Union UAW Local 1981 - the only labor
union that represents freelance writers.
Now, more than ever, with the consolidation of power into the hands of
ever-larger corporate entities and with the advent of technologies that
facilitate the exploitation of a writer’s work, writers need an organization
with the clout and know-how to protect our interests. One that will forge new
rules for a new era.
Combining the strength of more than 1,200 members in our 13
chapters with the support of the
United Automobile Workers, the NWU works to advance the economic and working
conditions of all writers
