I am all for promoting and supporting individuals who are trying to make a way out of no way. Whether it is turning their side hustles into a full time career or stepping out on faith and giving their boss the middle finger. So when a friend told me she was releasing a book, I quickly told her I would showcase it on here. When I first got the book, I took one look at the title and said to myself, "Whoa, folks are going to lose their minds over this and think that it is a gold digging manual." However, the age old quote "Never judge a book by it's cover," kicked in and I cracked open a woman's guide to common sense. Common sense that you should buy new panties, eat healthy, exercise, upgrade your hangout spots, educating yourself, etc but as you all know all sense ain't common. So, without further ado, I introduce Ms. Dema Shamel the author of Women! Get the Material Things You Really Want From Men....
1. What inspired you to write this book?
Female relatives and friends noticed that I had success with getting what I want from men and they would ask me for advice and with my advice came results, so naturally they insisted that I write a book about it.
2. What was the research process like and how long did it take?
The research was information that I had already knew the process was more challenging because I had to develop an outline and really focus on a step by step formula generally. It took 6 months to write and a year and a half to complete cover, editing, etc.
3. What are some of the misconceptions of your book, if any?
The title is the main misconception and I wanted to do that on purpose to receive a reaction but the book is actually inspiring and uplifting not just another gold digger's manual.
4. It seems like everyone is writing a relationship/dating book. What sets your book apart from the rest?
My book is more for the woman who is fed up with seeking love and relationships. Other books are about seeking relationships or trying to understand them my book is for the woman who wants to set her own rules to play by.
5. How do you respond to critics that say this book is demoralizing and teaches women how to be a gold digger?
I tell them to shut up and read it then we can talk.
6. In Chapter 4-Learn the Man and What You Are Dealing With! A lot of women will do research for a paper or do research for a job but will not do research on the men in their lives....Please explain the importance of taking the time to learn the man.
From my experience I've noticed that a lot of men recycle a lot of the same personality traits it is important to study this so you can know how to approach them and to gather a sense of how they may react or respond.
7. How has the book helped you?
It has helped me figure out and acquire what I really want from men without all the emotional drama and I am a lot more focused on my goals and aspirations.
8. Where can people purchased the book?
My book is available at all online book retailers such Barnes & Nobles, Amazon, etc. Also it can be purchased at my website www.getwhatyouwantnow.net and anyone in the Largo area can pick it up at Borders at the Capitol Blvd.
9. What does the future hold for Ms. Dema Shamel?
With more book sales the future will be more magazine and radio interviews, seminars, a documentary, a few more books, and venturing out in more endeavors.....success.
10. Any last words?
