Getting our DEP books into Bookstores
Authors, We need your help
Simply we need to do this together. I am asking for your help. I hope this helps other writers and authors in DEP and on Medium as well.
How do we do this?
I have inquired at bookstores multiple times. This is what they told me:
- Find the person who makes the decision, contact them — give them a call or e-mail or see them in person if possible
- Send them an e-mail with the list of your books, links to the books, the book price listed, and a description of the book
Good Morning Amazing Writers and Authors,
I am asking for your help with our books, I would like to request that each of you send this list to 5–10 bookstores in your neighborhood.
1. Look at bookstores near you
2. Find out who makes the choice on what type of books they can have in the bookstore
Add an introduction of the person’s name and your request to the e-mail, thank them for considering. If there is a phone number please call and introduce yourself.
3. e-mail or print the list of our books and present it to the bookstore
4. You may add your own books to this list
5. Please let DEP know in a separate reply what bookstores you have submitted this list so we can create a master list and what bookstores accepted your request
Please reach out with any questions,
Please complete by November 20th would love to see our books in bookstores for the Holidays.

Moments of Eternity (books2read.com)
Review: Dr. D. Aquila Maraglio — Lynn
Nature Connection Uniting Hearts in Love Moments of Eternity by Dancing Elephants Press Poetry Book Project is a heart-centered creation by 15 diverse
authors worldwide. The compilation of poetry is a delight to read daily to find joy, connection, compassion, and inspiration. The authors seamlessly meld together their creative literary talent, addressing identity and the question “Who am I?” throughout the book. A common theme is joy, compassion, and connection strongly
associated with the relationship with all of Nature, including spirituality, humans, and the self. Dr. Gabriella Kőrösi is one of the authors and editors, the owner of Dancing Elephants Press, and the Chief Collaborator in creating the poetry book project. Her Poetry starts the book in chapter one after the introduction chapter, beautifully detailing the collaborative effort to share inspiration, joy, and spirituality by Vidya Sury, leading to the title Moments of Eternity. Every author’s biography, creative interests, and contact information are expounded at the beginning of each chapter. The biographies and introduction capture the beautiful tapestry of poetic artistry and their interconnectedness and interdependency on a biospheric level.
The book is a beautiful addition to any daily practice, slowly reading a poem to digest and relate to throughout the day. For example, a line in Kőrösi’s poem, The Fire of Life, “I am the blooming flower of the forest. I am the tree of life,” captures the opening of the heart connecting and uniting with Nature. Further, the poem, The
World, details the soul blossoming to receive joy, “Flowering hearts bring moments of joy.” The lines of the poetry are a splendid opening of the heart. Moving into chapter two, the delight and connection to Nature continues.
