After The Event
I am waiting for Mark. For the last several months he has been missing, Garbo-like, from public life. But in reality he has been writing a new book. We have agreed to go back over the original manuscripts for this edition, to do some editing, add in some extras, delete a few choice words and phrases. We meet in his London home, where he is dressed in a workday uniform of brown shirt, jeans and trainers, hair clipped up in practical busy-busy fashion, all smiles and loud laughter. We first met over five years ago. Then we tentatively shook hands and the laughter was nervous. All that has changed. But some things have not. He still famously hates interviews. Around us there is evidence of a ve...
Real Tough Software
Inspiring, personal and full of all-too-relatable stories from life in modern America, Real Tough Software is an unforgettable memoir from a woman who didn’t take no for an answer.

RTC invites you into her world, chronicling events from sleepless nights learning RESTful APIs and JavaScript type conversion to her time spent in a senior position at a dysfunctional enterprise software company. She details her wins and losses, telling her story in a way that takes you right to the scene. Real Tough Software is a brutally honest look back at one person’s incredible journey to a career in software, sharing the fight, the heart, and the relentless hustle that resulted in not only a new career, but a new chance at freedom.

The Long Road to Nowhere
One day while sitting on a park bench, Mark was asked by an old man, "Why do you do what you do? Why do you work where you work or live where you live?" Whether we agree or not, life really is about a series of paths and decisions whereby even one small change can alter our lives forever. We usually want to blame others, including God, for our decisions. Only by examining the paths we have taken can we really see where we're at! It is only when we look deep within ourselves we discover that as writers, singers, musicians, interior decorators, or even truck drivers, we all have gifts! Having them is not to question; rather, it is WHAT WE DO WITH THEM that really matters! Wherever your passions lie, you can erase your doubts and restore your joy. Just imagine yourself on a park bench...

Filled with inspirational case studies, this book focuses on building improved relationships, structures and behaviours, rather than seeing the student as 'the problem' that must be fixed. Highlighting the value of promoting positive c...
