  • BAD KARMA: The True Story of a Mexican Surf Trip from Hell

    Paul Wilson, Barbara Noe Kennedy

    Paperback (Ocean Front Publishing, Dec. 26, 2019)
    In the summer of 1978, twenty-one-year-old Paul Wilson jumps at the chance to join two local icons on a dream surf trip to mainland Mexico, unaware their ultimate destination lies in the heart of drug cartel country. Having no earthly idea of where he’ll get the money to pay his share, and determined to prove his mettle, he does the only thing he can think of: He robs a supermarket. And, if karma didn’t already have enough reason to doom the trip, he soon learns one of his companions is a convicted killer on the run, and the other an unscrupulous cad. Mishap and misfortune rule the days, and mere survival takes precedence over surfing. Original photographs (including pre-kingpin El Chapo), and Wilson’s strong narrative style, combine to make this true story personal—in the tradition of Into The Wild by Jon Krakauer, and Barbarian Days, A Surfing Life by William Finnegan—except this tale had to wait for the statute of limitations to expire before it could be told. “Bad Karma is one badass piece of work.” – Jan Goode“Hangin with El Chapo. Wow.” – JBA“What a great read! Very captivating and thrilling! This book had me hooked since the beginning!” – Sam Pilot“One of the funniest true stories I've ever read.” – Penny Pennell“Paul’s writing is so colorful, so real...” – Jean Ready Froning“What an awesome adventure! Easy reading that I couldn’t put down. – Laura Herron

  • Our Muslim Neighbors: Achieving the American Dream, an Immigrant’s Memoir

    Victor Begg, Front Edge Publishing

    Audible Audiobook (Front Edge Publishing, May 3, 2019)
    The American dream is alive and well in this memoir of a Muslim immigrant from India who arrived planning to start a business, working so hard toward his personal goals that he even pumped gas and sold vacuum cleaners door to door. Victor Begg successfully built a thriving, regional chain of furniture stores. Along the way, he discovered that America's greatest promise lies in building healthy communities with our neighbors. "In one book, I have come to understand much more about Islam, its followers and its teachings," Rabbi Bruce Benson writes in the book's foreword. "I've come to realize that the challenges Muslim immigrants have faced are similar to what Jews and many other immigrant groups have experienced as they tried to settle in America. By the end of this book, I hurt with Victor and I laugh with him, because - as Americans - we share so much. We are him. His journey is our journey. This is our story." As Victor reached out to others, he used his entrepreneurial skills to cofound a new kind of ethnically diverse mosque as well as influential nonprofits designed to help others. Agreeing to serve as a regional spokesperson for Muslims, he got more than he bargained for - responding to tragedies that included 9/11 and a massacre in a Florida nightclub. "Person by person, friend by friend, good-hearted people change the world," Victor writes in this memoir. His greatest talents turned out to be his ongoing ability to invite all of us to open our hearts, roll up our sleeves and reach out to help each other. "We need stories of our Muslim neighbors like Victor Begg to break down the walls that separate us and to educate us about those who might seem so strange, at first, but might become heart friends if given the chance," writes the Rev. Daniel L. Buttry in the book's preface. "Along the way, we might discover some true American heroes. Victor is just such a hero: selfless, ordinary, but willing to risk to make our nation and our world a better place."
