I am also sharing the brilliant and inspiring Foreword written by Shiju H Pallithazheth.

What is life if moments are missed?

Well yes, you guessed it right. It would be a dark room with just the walls reflecting monotony. No human being who has been gifted with sight, smell, touch, and insight would desire that. We all need to share and learn from things which we come across in our day to day life. It helps us to broaden life covering many amusing phases and paths and to grow and progress as a matured mind sensing life to its fullest. No human would ever wish to be unborn. Even a mother’s womb would dream of seeing its nurtured foetus coming to the world to broaden its senses. It is when such moments are absorbed in mind and memory, that we turn out to be real humans belonging to a sane world.

So the world is made JUST FOR YOU. How you use it for your productive existence, depends on how you register moments to keep you motivated. This is the message of this book titled Just for you, written by prolific author and poet Brenda Mohammed. It opens up her varied phases in life, as well as the moments and thoughts running in her tiny brain. Tiny it may seem as I said before, but it’s so powerful, that the multifold dimensions of her life to date, are well registered and autographed by many of her near, dear, and loved ones throughout this book. When the great love season of February is about to end, Author Brenda Mohammed stepped in and innovated the month with brighter moments to love life. She enhanced the season with this book and marked her celebration of life.

Just for you is a literary innovation that touches upon the relevance of moments in all our lives. As readers, we may have wondered how to keep the brain ticking with pleasantries, but Brenda made our life easier by lending her moments of life as a reading asset for every connoisseur of literary delight. This book is a blessing for all of us, especially when we are going through some of our most challenging days. The book can be called a package of entertaining poems to amuse one’s soft side, and also to diffuse the negative side. The poems in this book have touched upon many moments with which most readers might feel connected. Therefore, do read each and every poem, as they have been created just for you.

When a book is relatable, we are transported into a virtual paradise. I wouldn’t have a second thought when I say this book is one such. The title Just for You was chosen for this same reason. Do you need to know more?

I’m sure your mind will become a better observer when you voraciously peruse the pages. Read it and celebrate life.

At Brenda’s request, I am including this poem as my contribution to Just for you

Thoughts that blossom

As a garden in one’s bosom

Speaks of one’s love awesome.

 

There are no rules in affection.

It’s an irresistible addiction.

Where a beloved becomes the addition.

 

Desire within one innovates,

A sense of completion activates.

Sense of responsibility cultivates.

 

Love is the best form of living

Where our mood keeps enjoying, 

And unveils a life cherishing.

 

Learn this addictive feeling,

Life keeps trending and healing

As the couple’s lips keep sealing.

A MESSAGE FOR WRITERS AND READERS

 

After doing much research on readers and how they review a book, I discovered the following, which I would share with you. It is in poetic form.

Someone once said there are no perfect writers and perfect readers.

I agree strongly with those words of wisdom from a great leader.

*

There’s another saying, “One man’s meat is another man’s poison.”

We’re all made up differently and will see things from a different angle.

*

Research has shown there are various types of readers in Literature.

Tacit Readers, Aware Readers, Strategic Readers, and Reflective Readers.

*

When reviewing a writer’s book, tacit readers lack understanding.

They stop reading, give a one-star review, their way of absconding.

*

Aware Readers are good at understanding but not good assessors.

Strategic readers are better, but reflective readers are best reviewers.

*

Reflective readers give the best reviews as they are strategic thinkers.

This poem will help writers understand review ratings from readers.

A SUCCESS STORY WRITTEN BY BRENDA MOHAMMED

The full details of this true story have been published in my Memoir – MY LIFE AS A BANKER available on Amazon. CLICK HERE. 

A SUCCESS STORY

The Managing Director at the Bank’s Head office called me one day.

I was looking forward to hearing what he had to say.

I drove for many miles all the way to Port of Spain,

With high hopes thinking it could be a promotion again.

He was very polite, greeted me kindly, and pulled out a file.

When he started talking I was puzzled for a while.

He wanted to introduce to the bank something brand new.

And felt I was the ideal person to help him pull it through.

He said a Corporate Division was always his dream.

And wanted me to open one and bring it on stream.

At that point, my eyes widened in disbelief.

Especially when he said, he required my expertise.

That morning I did not take any notebook with me.

I was not expecting such a huge responsibility.

I listened carefully to every word, relying on my memory.

It was plain to see that he had much confidence in me.

To make a long story short, I accomplished the assignment.

It also resulted in a promotion for me and a new appointment.

In record time the brand new Corporate Division of the Bank,

Was onstream and the Managing Director moved me up the rank.

Failure to detect opportunities will result in failure.

Before turning down an offer to improve your future,

Be patient, and check it out, you will find it rewarding.

Don’t believe you can’t handle it, and say you are leaving.

Trinidad and Tobago writer Brenda Mohammed gets prestigious award

 

Trinidad and Tobago writer Brenda Mohammed gets prestigious award

 

T&T writer gets prestigious award by RYAN BACHOO ryan.bachoo@cnc3.co.tt 

https://www.guardian.co.tt/news/tt-writer-gets-prestigious-award-6.2.1214968.2fa3806011?fbc

In the midst of the gloom of the pandemic, one T&T writer has found a reason to celebrate. 

Brenda Mohammed received the Prashamshith Pathr (Certificate of Appreciation) from one of the world’s most active writers’ forums, Motivational Strips, and the Indian government’s most respected literary institution, Gujarat Sahitya Academy.

 It was awarded to 350 prominent writers from 80 countries as India marked its 74th Independence Day on August 15. 

It’s a phenomenal achievement for a woman who was battling ovarian cancer 15 years ago. 

Forced to seek medical help abroad, Mohammed travelled to the University of Miami Sylvester Cancer Centre for surgery and chemotherapy. 

Not only did she fully recover and was able to return to her job at Republic Bank but that journey shaped everything she did after that. 

As a cancer survivor, many who were ailing sought her advice encouraging her 2013 book I Am Cancer Free. 

It became very popular among those fighting the disease. “That gave me the encouragement to write more books,” Mohammed said. 

That’s exactly what she did.

To date, she has written 27 multi-genre novels climbing the ladder at various prominent writers groups around the globe. 

 A year after joining the Literary Forum, Motivational Strips, the world’s most active writers’ forum with writers from 163 countries and monthly visitors crossing 7.3 million, she was appointed Regional Director of Operations. 

In October 2018, she was appointed an Honorary Member of the World Higher Literary Academic Council of World Nations Writers’ Union. 

Her Prashamshith Pathr award made headlines in several newspapers around the world. “I was delightfully surprised when I saw my name on the list of awardees. This is not just a premium award for me, but more than that, I value it as the success of Trinidad and Tobago writers,” she said.

 Founder of Motivational Strips, Shiju Pallithazheth said it was “a happy moment to see Trinidad and Tobago shining on the world literary map and Brenda Mohammed crowned as its literary gem.” 

While it may be the highlight of her writing career, it certainly isn’t her first award. 

In January, the Vistabella resident was inducted into The Indie Authors Hall of Fame in the United States —an establishment for self-published authors who have achieved fame. 

In December 2018, she was awarded the World Laureate in Literature by World Nations Writers’ Union.

On August 31, 2019, Mohammed was honoured by the Seychelles Government Accredited Literary Society [ LLSF] for her contribution to world poetry, creativity, and writing expertise. 

Her genres include memoirs, science fiction, romance, self-help, mystery, children’s books, and poetry. In fact, her self-help book, How to Write for Success, became an important guide for new and aspiring authors.

 It received a five-star review and a five-star seal from Readers Favorite one month after publication. 

It also won the gold award in the category non-fiction in Connections EMagazine Readers’ Choice awards 2019 and a silver medal for second place in all genres. 

It would seem that Mohammed doesn’t need any further inspiration with so many awards and accolades bestowed on her but she says: “This award has given me encouragement to do more work in the field of literature that will benefit the world at large.” 

Now, as great T&T writers such as VS Naipaul, CLR James, and Earl Lovelace have done in the past, she wants to create literature as a form of tourism for this country. “Although this is a literature award, I see this as a way of boosting tourism in Trinidad and Tobago. Motivational Strips is the world’s most active writers’ forum and has writers from 163 countries with monthly visitors crossing 7.3 million. All eyes are now focused on Trinidad and Tobago and whenever the pandemic ends, I hope we will see a flux of visitors to this country.” 

Though the Prashamshith Pathr award is her crowning achievement thus far, it is by no means the final chapter in Brenda Mohammed’s story.

SUCCESS FOR TRINIDAD AUTHOR BRENDA MOHAMMED IN TIMES OF COVID 19

 

In spite of COVID 19 in 2020, Author Brenda Mohammed is pursuing her work in Literature.

She made headlines in the Sunday Herald in Ethiopia on Sunday 6th September 2020.

A full article about her was written by Alem Hailu, Chief Editor.

You can read it at this link.

https://www.press.et/english/?p=27061#

Here is the article:

Author Brenda Mohammed was honoured with Prashamshith Pathr (Certificate of Honour) by the world’s most active writers’ forum ‘Motivational Strips’ and India Government’s premier literary institution ‘Gujarat Sahitya Akademi.’

Brenda Mohammed, a former bank manager, is a prominent writer and poet from Trinidad. She has been writing vivid literary genres from a very young age.

She is today a role model to all her fellow writers having authored 27 books.

She has won several awards during her seven-year writing career from the USA, Oman, Peru, Kazakhstan, Seychelles, and India.

She has now created a bigger impact in literature after having won an International award of such stature from two gigantic literary institutions.

Motivational Strips has writers from 163 countries and the monthly visitors to its page crosses 7.3 million.

They had combined with Indian Government’s ‘Gujarat Sahitya Akademi’ during India’s 74th Independence Day, to honour 350 poets and writers from 80 countries.

This is the first time two world popular literary entities have merged to identify national and international talents.

The best of prominent world poets and writers were selected for the awards. The Founder of Motivational Strips, Shiju H.Pallithazheth has applauded Brenda Mohammed for bringing pride to Trinidad by making a mark in global Literature.

The Chairman of ‘Gujarat Sahitya Akademi’ Dr. Vishnu Pandya states, ‘this moment will remain historic in world literature.’

Author Brenda Mohammed continues to inspire the world readers by setting a benchmark in Global Literature. She is currently writing her 28th book.

Alem Hailu continues:

A word with a famous author with meteoric rises,

Hearing about the other award our former guest, Brenda Mohammed added to her bag I have emailed her about her feelings and new developments.

Herald:- You are achieving success after success. How do you describe your feelings?

Brenda:- Alem, While I feel elated with each success, I am still the same simple Brenda, who enjoys the simple things in life. I can only say that these successes motivate me to write more. To date, I have written 27 books and ten of them are bestsellers.

Herald:- Could you tell us the secret behind your success?

Brenda:- Alem, there is no secret to success.

Many people have asked me this question and my answer has always been to keep focused in whatever you do, remain persistent, and never give up.

Herald:- What do you advise aspiring writers who dream to follow in your footsteps?

Brenda:- I advise them to read my book, ‘How to Write for Success.’

The five- star reviews I received for that book are many.

In that book, I have stated in every chapter, how to be a successful writer.

Many who have read it have benefited and are successful writers today.

Herald:- In the post-Covid-19 era, the order of things has changed. The same is true of authorship and readership. What can you say about this? How do you see books as a favorite pastime?

Brenda:- Yes. Life has changed. Many are turning to Literature because it has remained constant.

I see an increase in writers and readers in the Literary forums, Motivational Strips, the world’s most active writers’ forum, which now has 7.3 million visitors a month and writers from 163 countries.

Shiju H Pallithazheth is the Founder of Motivational Strips and I am Regional Director – Operations.

As the Founder of How to Write for Success Literary forum, I have also seen a large increase in membership.

Herald:- Given your meteoric rise in the field of literature shall we expect a Noble prize?

Brenda: Alem, I have not yet dreamt of such an achievement, but I leave that one for the Almighty if he so wills it.

HOW TO WRITE FOR SUCCESS FORUM IS SPREADING LITERARY TALENT WORLDWIDE

 

HOW TO WRITE FOR SUCCESS LITERARY FORUM was founded by Trinidadian author BRENDA MOHAMMED in February 2018.

After her successful entry into the literary world in 2013 and having written a number of books, some of which won awards and became bestsellers, she wrote the book HOW TO WRITE FOR SUCCESS to help new and aspiring authors. 

One month after its publication, Readers Favorite International gave it a five-star review.

Reviewed by Darin Godby for Readers' Favorite, Five Stars.

“Author Brenda Mohammed gives the reader valuable nuggets of truth to use within their own writing career in How To Write For Success. 

There is a brief introduction listing the various books the author has written and her ability to encompass different types of literature. 

The purpose of this book is to show readers that the author has a passion to help other readers fulfill their lifelong dream of writing their own book. 

I really appreciated the personal stories on how the author writes her own material and how important research is, even before one begins to write. 

She also lists several Facebook groups she has joined to help promote both her material and herself as an author.

One of the best statements I appreciated within this book is: "A book description is your sales pages. It will sell your book.Make sure it is engaging and can turn a browse into a buy." 

This is great and valuable information for a writer to understand. 

There is also listed the importance of copyrighting the material, getting an ISBN number, etc. Whoever gets the ISBN number is considered the publisher. 

The author has the choice of getting their own or letting the publisher get it for them. 

Pre-orders are very important to an author. 

Creating excitement before the book is even printed is huge. 

There are also many listed things that one can do following publication. 

Branding yourself is also very important. 

People must know about you and your material, how to find it, and consider reading it. 

I really enjoyed all the links provided in the e-book, allowing the reader to go to various publishers, writing aids, Facebook groups, etc. 

This is an asset to any writer at any level, given the detailed information, but for the beginner, it is a must-have!.”

This review inspired Brenda to start the Literary Forum, How to Write for Success.

In October 2018, Shiju H Pallithazheth, the Founder of Motivational Strips, the world’s most active writers’ forum approached Brenda to affiliate her forum with Motivational Strips and she agreed. This affiliation worked in favour of both forums and the benefits were many. Both groups saw an increase in membership.

In February 2019, How to Write for Success Literary Forum produced an Anthology of Poems to prevent Suicide. ‘A Spark of Hope’ co-authored by 47 poets of both forums topped the charts of Amazon and became Amazon bestseller No 1 in Poetries and Anthologies.

In August 2019, the book ‘How to Write for Success;’ topped all the books in the Non-Fiction category of Connections Emagazine Readers’ Choice awards and won the gold medal. It also won the silver medal in the overall categories for second place. The first place went to one of Brenda’s books, ‘Stories People Love.’ It was a double victory.

Because of favourable reports received about A Spark of Hope, which saved many from committing suicide, on 11^th February 2020, the forum published Volume two of A Spark of Hope. That book, which was coauthored by 64 poets, also topped the charts of Amazon to become bestseller No 1 in Poetries and Anthologies.

The increase in Domestic Violence throughout the world raised much concern for poets in both forums. On March 5^th, Break the Silence: An Anthology against Domestic Violence, coauthored by 87 poets was published by the forum. That Anthology also topped the charts of Amazon to become bestseller No 1 in Poetries and Anthologies.

The merits of the book, ‘How to Write for Success’ were featured in a comprehensive review in the Ethiopian Herald Sunday Edition on  February 16th 2020, by senior journalist Alem Hailu. He gave full details of how it can help new and even seasoned authors.

This is one sentence from his lengthy review, ‘As a novelist, book reviewer, and editor myself, I wish I had this book by my bedside for reference in my previous literary pursuits, for unlike other books, I made recourse to, in a bid to fathom the literary devices authors, as well as book reviewers, are expected to well digest, HOW TO WRITE FOR SUCCESS profits a wide array of writers if they, in good time, upload it in their backpacks.’

On  28th May 2020, WORLD NATIONS WRITERS UNION conferred on How to Write for Success Literary Forum a rare and exclusive award to selfless literary institutions that have very high standards of operations, and serve the world of literature selflessly.

On August 15^th 2020, it was a moment of pride when the Founder and all Administrators of HOW TO WRITE FOR SUCCESS LITERARY FORUM were honoured by Motivational Strips, the world's most active writers' forum, and Gujarat Sahitya Academy of Gujarat, India.

To date, the Forum which now has three sub-forums  have a total of             members as follows:
