Introduction

Have you ever felt the urge and the passion to write a book, be published and have your voice heard but just do not seem to have the time to do it or to do enough to make it complete? Here’s a great chance to showcase your talents whether it be writing, designing, your musical talents or film-making skills!

For years, I have been wanting to bring to my friends something that they will be proud to be part of. That’s what motivated me to start up several activities for us to do together and work towards for. In the past, these have been done on a smaller scale and only those closest to me were involved. Now, this project would be on a larger basis.

We will be working towards some sections at first, building up momentum at it goes and hoping to feature as many quality works as we can find, compiling them into e-booklets  and e-magazines at first. When we have enough numbers, the selected will be published into e-books, e-magazines and printable books.

Definition of Success

How to know that you and I have succeeded? We will know our project has been a success when our books are published in major bookstores all over the World! Wouldn’t it be cool that you have a book which is read by people all over the World? Wouldn’t it be nice to know that this book might just become a classic that even after many years people will still be reading it?

If that’s not enough, here’s 7 more good reasons why it’s too good a chance to pass.

Like previous projects, we will seek to bring to contributors the best benefits for them as much as we can. For some of those who have helped, they have gained some exposure for their talents and for others, they have been rewarded with cash and other benefits.

The 7 Rewards

  1. To know that someone in the world is inspired by your works. Giving meaning to their lives, touching lives today,  tomorrow and so long as there is a future, there will be a history for our works.
  2. To know that your works are being appreciated and in the company of other talent people as well in the projects.
  3. Get free traffic to your Web-site and also prospective clients if you are a professional or freelancer. There might even be opportunities to be have cash rewards for you in the future.
  4. For self interest, you can use the recognition in your portfolio, resume and also to have acknowledgement that many people will appreciate your efforts for a work well done.
  5. To be part of something ordinary people make extraordinary and ongoing for a long long time. The possibilities are endless for what the future can hold.
  6. To Create a Life That Matters
  7. To know that just a simple “Yes” or “Ok” from you can get all the rewards above and much more. To be happy and the possibilities of achieving more happiness in the future to come, that’s exciting!

How it Works

We will ask participants for permission to use their existing works in the projects. The usual contribution of works includes Pictures, Articles, Music and Videos. When the projects are completed, they will usually exist as ebooks, Reports, Presentations, Music or Videos.

Works that participants have contributed will be attributed to each of them accordingly and when the portion of the projects they are involved in are completed, they will be invited to download the finished projects for free. They can also give away the projects to their friends, family and to people who are interested.

HOW WORKS ARE ATTRIBUTED

When you contribute your works to us, you will be able to attribute them to your web-sites or email. It’s optional and you may decide to not attribute them for privacy purposes.

In some cases due to space constrain, we will attribute it in the credits section at the end or start of the compiled project. If there is already a link to your works then the following can be disregarded.

Why attribution? Because who knows, something good might happen to you :) to make a friend who likes your work, to meet a future soul-mate who shares your interests, to be offered a better job or the dream job you always wanted, to meet some long lost friend or just knowing that someone out there loves your work is enough for a reward.

Sounds good eh? *smiles*
