Help is a fast paced reflection of enpowering thoughts that help's lost individuals address conflict of a past life of road blocks and dead ends.

HELP! presents the piece of the puzzle that only fits your personal agenda. HELP! is the missing link in your personal chain of command. HELP! is the answer to all your questions that you were afraid or ashame to address in front of the class of life. HELP! is courage,HELP! is character and HELP! is charisma all waiting for you to extend your hand for your fair share of aid.HELP! is an inner strength that will issue a masters degree in the prescribed course work of YOU!HELP! delivers Self-Love,Self-Discipline,Self-Esteem,Self-Value and Self-Preservation while issuing justification without judgement. Help is a motivational experience for the Mind,Body and Soul,Help Me,Help You,Help Us is a philosophy of the Trinity of Self. Help is a manual that was created to provide a life altering experience and not just another quick fix scheme. Help addresses addiction, anger and alienation. The current Self-Help & Motivational industry is based off an admission of guilt by the consumer to correct current circumstances.This current formula has not created a connection which will allow consumers to alter their behavior and not their actions.Help will remove all barriers and bureaucracy by soliciting the significance of helping yourself first and addressing basic necessities.

Reviews of my novel, Vampire of God. It's available on Amazon, Barnes & Nobles, Waldenbooks and Target on-line.

"Javan Shepard presents readers with something new and appealing. I recommend this novel to paranormal fans looking for something less traditional but vastly engaging to read.
-Chantay Wesley BookLover4Life

"Overall, I recommend VAMPIRE OF GOD to all whom enjoy a good paranormal story. This one is action packed and will definitely hold your interest until the end.
-La-Tessa Montgomery

"Vampire of God is a fascinating urban fantasy set in a magical and mysterious world of vampires. The battle scenes were particularly my favorite, each one keeping you on the edge of your seat as you root for Simone to win. A great read for paranormal fans of all kinds!
-Lacy’s Review

"Totally different take on vampires!" VAMPIRE OF GOD is a very different type of vampire story. Javan Shepard has taken the vampire and made it his own creation. The story is filled with enough action to hold the interest of any reader, including sword fights. I also enjoyed the concept of how vampires came to exist in the first place and their outlook on life. All in all, this is an enjoyable read.

Check Out My Hilarious New Novel, The Bum Magnet. It's about a woman who attracts all the wrong men and takes a journey into the nightmares of her boyfriends past to find out why. It's available at Amazon.com and Barnes & Nobles stores nationwide and online.

Here's what reviewers are saying...

“K.L. Brady’s journey of one woman’s dating woes and self discovery was entertaining and real. With a nice balance of
drama and laughs, The Bum Magnet is both funny and uplifting…” OOSA Online Book Club


"Ms. Brady's creativity had me laughing-out-loud and shaking my head. . . The message of this book is something everyone can benefit from. I recommend The Bum Magnet to readers looking to laugh while enjoying a well-crafted story."
Jennifer Coissiere, APOOO BookClub
