    How often do we worry about, "How am I ever going to make this dream come true", that we end up doing nothing? Stop worrying about how your dream is going to work. Just start working on it. Believe me, the time will never be ‘right‘. Have you stopped pursuing your dreams? Feeling defeated? Get up. Brush yourself off. Start all over again! Don’t believe your unsupportive thoughts.

    The Story of America's Park

    After being fired by Walt Disney, the flamboyant C.V. Wood brought his hard-won experience as the self-titled "master builder of Disneyland" east, to a marsh in the Bronx, where in 1960 he unveiled his greatest project, a doomed theme park to tell the history of America: Freedomland.


    Wood's efforts to build his "Disneyland of the East," a themed collection of lands that presented epic moments in American history as thrill rides, shows, and live action, were plagued from the start by politics, cost overruns, and financial chicanery. Despite these obstacles, the park prospered—until its big-money backers (as they had planned from the start) pulled the plug and cleared the land for lucrative urban development.


    Through a well-researched narrative, personal and newspaper accounts, interviews, and exclusive photos, journalist and author Michael R. Virgintino presents the definitive history of Freedomland, from the people behind its creation, and the executives, entertainers, and sponsors who kept it running, to in-depth looks at each of its historically themed lands, and an analysis of the park's inevitable bankruptcy in 1964.


    Unlike Disneyland, the story of Freedomland does not have a happily ever after, but theme park fans will not want to miss this captivating but cautionary tale of America's park.

    "Sadness came and left like the tide, an emptiness taking its place every time it receded."


    Aleeya Rai is lost. Not only literally, when she sneaks her way to the Boston subways to sing, but also when she's faced with how she could possibly get people to notice her talent. Becoming a singer and getting into her dream school are no easy feats, but she believes she has what it takes.



    In attempts to find herself and to achieve her goals, she strays from familiarity. She soon realizes that life is not as simple and straightforward as she wants it to be, throwing her to the unknown and jeopardizing way more than just her dreams.


    Something tells the tale of growth, and the lengths we're willing to go in order to thrive.


    "It is well-known that there is a tremendous stigma for South Asian immigrant populations toward mental health and well-being. [Banerjee] explores this important topic through normalizing the experience, understanding the challenges, and perhaps, offering a pathway for new dialogues and possibilities."


    -Dr. Darshan Mehta, Medical Director, Benson-Henry Institute for Mind Body Medicine, Assistant Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical school

    While living in Nevada’s capital, Carson City, Bob – a skilled photographer and car racing fan – began taking professional-quality photos of the races, the local quarter-mile oval track, and the trophy ceremonies. He was soon discovered by the local newspapers – as well as by Racing Wheels Magazine. Bob wound up as the racing photojournalist – taking the photos and writing the stories – for a number of publications, often traveling in the race circuit, from California to Texas. He had a custom van that he parked in the pit – the center of the race track, inside the oval – and had a crew to work with him, for shots that required him to be two places at once.


    Having gotten quite a start as a working writer/photographer, upon his retirement, his wife Penny encouraged him to write his memoirs, which he did in a series of vignettes and stories of his time in the police and private investigator, as an ambulance crewmember, car racing photojournalist – even his time in Vietnam. These stories were so successful that, at Penny’s urging, he turned some of them into his first novel, Gone But Not Forgotten, which he self-published.
