Announcing 3 new “series” definitions… Books collections defined at/on Amazon…

 

ALL BOOKS MENTIONED HERE-IN part of the Kindle Unlimited system for those who are members for easy BINGE READING of all within each class/series.

 

Here I will provide each of the 3 series just defined on/at Amazon…. See ANY of the individual books mentioned in any or all of the series to access link to the full series available via Amazon or accessing all the books in the series at once by using the series link provided for each of the 3 different series…

 

[Before I get into the series descriptions, let me first apologize for things OUT OF MY HANDS/CONTROL. Things are NOT ALL FULLY FUNCTIONING properly on the Amazon system (as of now (Fri. Oct. 24 11:26ET)) and get the usual "can take up to 3 days for changes to take effect" excuse. So everything is SUPPOSED to all be fully functioning by Sun. Oct. 26th evening. In meantime, the individual books spoken about here-in (10 total) are all up/online and available for purchase https://tinyurl.com/JLDonAMAZON or most (softcopy versions) available direct from me (Autographed, free shipping, to/for those in USA) via: https://JosephMLenard.us/shop. The main there here in this B4IN piece is about the "inter-connectivity" (note: each designed to be able to be read as stand-alone, or part of the extended collection to which tied (in some cases (like Life and Living series, "loosely" connected vs ChristiTutionalist set more directly inter-relate))) of the books within the defined series.]

 

 

ChristiTutionalist Politics – deep dives into our US Constitutional Republic Biblical Community roots (Joseph M Lenard).
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FXB5SVKG

This series could also be known as: USA Judeo / Christian foundations studies – looks into our nation’s foundations, our founders, our founding documents (how/why), and modern attempts to tarnish their creation (smearing our founders) and attacks on Western Culture accepted norms (based upon our Faith based creation).

Welcome. If you’re interested in US history you never fully were presented (officially taught) in US Schools since the removal of actual CIVICS and HISTORY classes given way to “theoretical” SOCIAL-STUDIES classes then this series is for you.

Christian or not, the series is about the greatest understanding of our Founders mindsets (No King, but King Jesus) and about the source material (The Bible, in actual/full context, not a Scripture or few distorted/twisted out-of-context) as basis for our Judeo/Christian foundations of a Biblical Community vs “Communism” (which is not Biblical) after having learned the original failings of The Bradford Colony and the “Mayflower Compact” and after that enclave almost having completely starved out, Bradford and the other leaders of that community, pivoted from “communal” ownership to “private property” principles; collective rights to individual rights, freedoms, personal responsibilities; and the rest (as they say) is history (but sadly many may know the term “Mayflower Compact” but NOT the need real/full story) as touched on in the pages of the CTP series as well as specifically can be found (is addressed) online at: https://tinyurl.com/WholeBradfordColonyStory (free  online article).

Hope you enjoy the read(s). Whether you choose just one or all (as they can indeed be read as stand-alone fare or as a set)  I appreciate you looking into this “ChristiTutionalist Politics – deep dives into our US Constitutional Republic Biblical Community roots” series of inter-connected manuscripts.

Sincerely,

NOTE: I am JOSEPH M LENARD, and that is like most pronounce “Leonard” but without the “o!” (reside in Michigan) It is important that I make the mention as a distinction as there is a Joseph Lenard (I think with the more French pronounced sounding , I am not sure, do not know, I have reached out to him to have a discussion but he has not returned my outreaches) who resides (or did at one point) in South Carolina. Hence my use of my middle-initial to try assure distinction between us. I am not he, he is not me, and neither of us are Shakespeare” as I like to joke.

 

Life and Living series by Joseph M Lenard
    

[well, NOT the update I was expecting to make (Thu. Oct. 23  2025  21:13) but here it is - the LIFE AND LIVING SERIES is temporarily OFFLINE due to Amazon screw-up. Been in touch with them and of course (see my B4IN pieces on LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE these days (/business/2025/10/the-sorry-state-of-customer-service-and-caring-everywhere-part-2-3769401.html)) the person spoken with is just there to answer the phones and CANNOT DO A DAMN THING to fix that it is HUNG (in Pending status) again following a minor update I made and the Amazon AI Automated system has made the same ERROR again needing a Human to step in and FIX/bypass to get it active/LIVE again and of course can NEVER, EVER, get to a human that can actually fix a problem and tell you MAY TAKE UP TO 24-48 HOURS and they'll get back to you by email. Meanwhile, all 3 books relate to the series are online and available. Or, direct from me: https://JosephMLenard.us/shop.
Fri. Oct. 24th 11:23ET - it is now (for now, hopefully permanently this time) back up / online / active / functioning]

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FXD2ZG12

First came my internationally published fare (in 2022) of TERROR STRIKES: COMING SOON TO A CITY NEAR YOU (historical-fiction; aka: FACTion as I call it; which hit as a #1 bestseller on Amazon Kindle the month following its release (https://TerrorStrikes.info/Bestseller)). I endlessly repeated during interviews about that book that while the terrorism thread ties the sub-threads of the entire book together as a continuous connective telling (while deals in history and reality of Terrorism over the decades not just most recently) it ultimately is not really about death and destruction but actual tale about life and living – while sometimes bad things happen to good people (whether those “bad things” being accident, general crime, or acts of terror) need to deal with degree of situational-awareness so-as to continue living one’s life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, desires! Hence, “life and living” really being the overall theme/goal to deliver to the readers.

Now, in 2025, while not officially sequel or prequels to or regarding TS:CSTACNY or even each other, I developed two new novelette entries to continue the overall “life and living” theme (with very different main characters, and even very different style of authoring/writing delivery methods) contain unique ties between them and the TS:CSTACNY manuscript (no, sorry, no spoilers, do not want to ruin your discovery of such if you choose to read them as “loose” connections between in the “life and living” theme series). Each can be read individually (do not have to conform to the series order) but for those who wish to read this as a series will find the “unique” inter-connectivity woven within.

THE BOOK OF KENNEDY: PROJECT CARPE DIEM adds to the continuing life and living theme with Kennedy (20 something female lead) written in standard narrative style (with zero dialog within) novelette (to help tell the tale but in less pages to help keep the Consumer cost down over costs of a full novel). A SHORT STORY: A LASTING LEGACY? (title a bit of a misnomer, as it too is a novelette) is the tale of Ryan (male lead) written in a Journal entries style (yet another literary styling to “change things up a bit” in/for the series and indeed very “different” from the narrative styles of any and all other books of mine (in or out of this series) otherwise) with a bit of dialog (only in the non-Journal ending chapter).

TS:CSTACNY is more “formerly” written novel in conjunction with AP, Chicago, Oxford, Style Guides – where-as TBOK:PCD, and A LASTING LEGACY are more “modern era” novelettes and a little more “loosely” written for and about modern era people as we as modern people speak (a little less “formal” than using “The Kings English” adherence in every paragraph/page)!

Hope you enjoy the read(s). Whether you choose just one or all (as you may prefer one book size over the other, or one writing style over another) appreciate you looking into this “life and living” series of “loosely” inter-connected manuscripts description for consideration.

Sincerely,

Welcome to the curiosity collection by Joseph M Lenard
[awaiting link assignment by Amazon - will update this article once that link available]

[Thu. Oct. 23 21:19ET update - STILL waiting on Amazon to get this done!
Fri. Oct. 24 11:15ET update - the link is supposedly available https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FXHLRL69 but (of course) it is NOT WORKING (displays "page not available" when trying navigate to it. The other 2 series pages are up and working. Of course, calling and telling them their page doesn't work get the usual BEG OFF "it can take 24-72 hours for changes to take effect" excuse (which is ridiculous, as a former IT guy if OUR WORK was so shotty we would have, should have, been FIRED). So, I apologize for the delay but is out of my hands and Amazon will DO NOTHING about it until Sunday at the earliest if it doesn't "magically" correct itself whatever is hanging it up. I know of no other company who has a Programming staff that does things but somehow their updates go "on hold" for days before taking effect.
Fri. Oct. 24th 18:52 update - for some reason the DE and UK (https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0FXHLRL69) series pages are up and fine, but the us (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FXHLRL69) version NOT FOUND as of yet. I reported that just now to Amazon.
Sat. Oct. 25th 01:13 update - the series page that I am supposed to have access to in order to check latest status went offline with a server error, reported that and got that cleared, however the issue of the series visible just fine on DE and UK related Amazon sites but NOT the US system still on going. Told could take til late Sun. Oct. 26th before this all cleared up.
MY SINCERE APOLOGIES to any/all of you might be interested in checking out this series and now frustrated (you cannot believe how frustrated I am having shared the series with you and you not being able to see it yet, the other 2 are up and FINE) but as you can see this is out of my hands and delays/issues all at Amazon USA end. For now you can see it at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0FXHLRL69]

In this series we tackle a couple HOW TO type guides, but this is called the curiosity collection vs the how to collection is important to explain. Books in this collection go well beyond just the how to do “X” audiences…

Even if you are NOT looking to learn how to engage in either publishing your own book or starting your own podcast – the books in this collection can provide a great behind-the-scenes peek into those worlds and the processes that go into the creations of the books you may be reading or the podcasts you enjoy listening to or watching. Hence, the curiosity collection name.

The books within the collection are also designed to help those who thought about either writing their own book and the nitty-gritty behind their realistic options of getting it published or those considering starting their own podcast to engage an audience realistic and low-cost way to get that going (and from there, once one is “comfortable” with their show direction, their abilities behind the microphone, then is the time one can add the more expensive options available to take their show to another level.

HTWABAGIP:HTT goes well beyond the “getting your book on Amazon” concepts that you can find for yourself via Amazon KDP help system itself and/or any number of online texts and/or videos – but instead takes the reader from the overall story-concepts discussion, book setup, outlining, character and scene development tips, more, as well as realistic publishing options including deadlines and contracts (depending on the route you ultimately decide may involve (even if you plan from start to go the Amazon KDP route you need look into the KDP terms-of-service in advance you’ll be agreeing to)), and even beyond once published the work of marketing and promotion. This guide even goes into what to expect regarding reviews and more.

PODCASTING: QUICK-START GUIDE goes into the basic steps and considerations of the creation and maintaining a podcast. Options to decide upon before diving into the deep waters of podcasting. Starting realistically and not over-whelming yourself until you find you’re “comfortable” in the podcast realm – then further options on growing both in number of episodes and amount of money you may be willing to put into the show to improve its quality. In-my-opinion you should go in slow, build, be sure you’re going to “keep with it” before you spend boatloads of money into such an endeavor.

Again, even if you’re not interested in doing either of this things yourself…
Are you an avid reader? Well, what all goes into those books you enjoy becoming available for you to read?
If you’re CURIOUS about that, HTWABAGIP:HTT is written in a way to not be a dry as most “technical guide” type books are and can help satisfy that curiosity to learn/understand.
Or yes once understanding maybe you’ll consider writing/publishing the story/stories that are in you – as I say: everyone has a story in them and generally others who would like to read it (the trick, is that marketing/promotion part to assure audience that would enjoy it; may learn valuable things from it (depending on what and why you’re releasing a manuscript); know that it exists (doesn’t happen by osmosis) and therefore can locate and purchase it.

Likewise with the PQSG about podcasting…
So, you enjoy listening or watching podcasts?
Become a more learned “podcastee” (a consumer of podcasts, as I coined) and what a podcaster goes through (to one degree or another) to deliver the product you enjoy.
Or yes once understanding maybe you’ll consider your own podcast program.

Thank you for checking in on this curiosity collection series.
