Never Saw Me Coming
A riveting true story of an unsuspecting woman who creates an ingeniously clever white-collar scheme that manipulates the Federal banking system out of millions—who eventually loses everything that is most important to her. In Never Saw Me Coming, Tanya Smith shares her deeply personal and remarkable story of how she went from a precocious young girl to a money-grabbing, computer-savvy wiz. It starts out as a keen interest in technology and innocently acquiring phone numbers to Michael Jackson, as well as other celebrities, and moves to her successfully stealing and depositing $5,000 into her grandmother’s banking account. By the time she is 18, the risk taker has confiscated millions in...
Little Mysteries
1973 Lubbock, Texas is the setting for this tale of mystery and the hidden lives of children as told by an eight year old girl. Her "vivid imagination resulting in hyperbole" sheds light on a local woman's suicide, as well as providing a rare insight into the secret lives of her and her sisters. Holidays and school events create the timeline, as that is how children tell time, and retell some humorous vignettes regarding family, friendship, and budding love. She has the support of the many adults in her life, yet they are often seen in opposition to her imagination.
Love Is... Pain
This is a poignant and raw read that explores the depth of love, loss, and gratitude. Through memoirs and poetry, Tonya Smith examines why she related love so much with pain, stemming from her childhood. After "truly" falling in love, she questioned the role she played in her unsuccessful relationships of the past. Was she fair, did she seem heartless, why didn't they work? Was it them? She needed help; she needed answers because she couldn't figure it out or make any sense of it. Love only comes around once, but how could the most beautiful feeling that's ever roamed her soul cause her to panic and run in fear? She twisted the mirror around and took a deep look at herself; was it her? Still no clear answers and there was nowhere else to run. So, she divulged back into the writing she'd given up many years ago to help her understand who and what she and others were dealing with. She had to relive some of the most painful memories of her life and as she walked the path of her yesterdays', and type the words written by the poor little kid, the lost teenager and fragile adult; would she discover answers, and unveil truths she didn't know existed.
Cultural Ergonomics
Even when products and systems are highly localized, rarely is there one design suitable for a single, mono-cultural population of users. The products and systems created and used are cultural artifacts representing shared cognitions that characterize mental models that result from interactions with physical environments. Thus, culture is embedded and impacts the extent to which products are usable, accessible, useful, and safe. Products and systems that deviate from users’ mental models may have negative consequences for users, ranging from minor annoyance to more serious consequences such as severe injury or death. Both an introduction and a primer, Cultural Ergonomics: Theory, Methods, ...

Precious Jewels
I shine bright like a DIAMOND through darker days than ONYX stones. Precious JEWELS surround me reminding me I'm not alone. As I look to the TOPAZ skies and pray for peace and positivity. My cheeks blush RUBY red, some say I'm living timidly. From the clouds up high to TANZANITE rivers below. I have GOD within me and HE give off an EMERALD glow. I've broken down walls harder than SAPPHIRE and I proceed to prevail. HIS word is more Precious than AMETHYST and will keep you from hell. Enticing to the eye like an OPAL stone, I hope these words touch your heart and very close to home. In this game of life there's two important rules. Trust GOD and stay surrounded by PRECIOUS JEWELS.
The Tales Teeth Tell
What teeth can tell us about human evolution, development, and behavior. Our teeth have intriguing stories to tell. These sophisticated time machines record growth, diet, and evolutionary history as clearly as tree rings map a redwood's lifespan. Each day of childhood is etched into tooth crowns and roots—capturing birth, nursing history, environmental clues, and illnesses. The study of ancient, fossilized teeth sheds light on how our ancestors grew up, how we evolved, and how prehistoric cultural transitions continue to affect humans today. In The Tales Teeth Tell, biological anthropologist Tanya Smith offers an engaging and surprising look at what teeth tell us about the evolution of pri...
