Your book will be available for sale from all major on-line bookstores such as Amazon Books, the largest internet bookseller, and Barnes and Noble, one of the largest bookstore chains in America.Frequently writers, unable to find a publisher, fall into the trap of paying thousands of pounds or dollars to a Vanity Publisher for a limited amount of printed books which fail to find a market. The small fee charged by Diadem, on the other hand, is for specific services. In the first instance, your manuscript needs to be checked carefully for errors. If the manuscript is regarded as marketable, editorial revisions will be made — with the author’s approval. Diadem Books will continue to assist, both in the proofreading and cover design.

* JUST PUBLISHED:
The “reflections” in this volume were inspired by the author’s acquisition of a house in the splendid isolation of a remote village surrounded by a scenic reserve. In Waipori Falls Village, about an hour's drive from Dunedin, in South Island, New Zealand, the author and his old friend and colleague Dr Garrett Evans could reflect upon life, on their experiences in different parts of the world where they had lived. This is followed by the author’s reflections back in Clashnessie, his home in the Highlands of Scotland, followed by his reflections during the summer of 2008, which he spent at his home in Nova Scotia. The book, which encompasses the three locales, constitutes, in effect, a “trilocation” portmanteau! All the reflections, wherever they are set, were inspired by his time in Waipori, which began the whole process. Also included are a number of articles by John Kelly, being memories of the early days in Waipori Falls Village, at the time when the hydro-electric scheme was being constructed in the valley.
This new collection of spiritual masterpieces will delight all lovers of anthologies. Unusually it is formed in the shape of a symphony with dark phrases and lighter ones and glorious uplands of magical harmonies that lift the spirit to realms of the ethereal. This is an anthology of other men’s insights—other men’s inspirations. We need all that they give in order that we might make sense of those difficult, obscure parts of life when God seems silent, or the storm clouds gather, or the desert unending—we need their awareness, their perception, their understanding so that we too can perceive, understand, and pick up the theme of the symphony once again.
At last, a novel a generation has been waiting for—a Bridget Jones’s Diary for the mature romantic! Geri Jones, though old enough to be Bridget’s mother, gets a buzz from attending university lectures, while keeping an eye out for that elusive Mr Right. Her best friend has just bagged her man, while her college mate, Gloria, is about to cremate hers. Competition for men is stiff, the outcome often an anti-climax, but Geri persists. Does her barbed tongue disguise a soft heart worth saving? Who is brave enough to find out? Her attempts to find happiness via personal ads, introduction agencies and cyber-dating prove unsuccessful, but she garners enough information about middle aged men to write a thesis on them! Her refreshing honesty and dauntless courage prove that she empathises with all women, everywhere.
Elizabeth Nel served as Winston Churchill's personal secretary during World War II. The vivid and human details of her experiences, of her impressions and memories of that great man at the height of the conflict against Hitler, make this compelling reading. An epilogue about the subsequent life of Elizabeth Nel over the past 60 years brings the book up to date
