IF YOU LOVE MYSTERIES, READ THIS

I love to dabble in multiple genres. I have written science fiction, romance, psychological thrillers, self-help, children’s books, and poetry. I decided to try my hand at mystery and came up with the idea of a book of mysteries solved by the same detective, who I named Barry Holmes. Driven by love, Barry Holmes, a former soldier, returned to his country to search for his ex-girlfriend's kidnapped daughter and discovered he was a father too. In three mind-blowing episodes of BARRY HOLMES MYSTERIES, read how Barry signed up to be a detective, captured an axe murderer, and uncovered the secret in the mysterious disappearance of a young businesswoman. In the first story, ‘The Gift of Love,’ published on 1st November 2018, I portrayed Barry as a soldier who is driven by love for his ex-girlfriend to help her find her missing daughter. He took time off to return to his homeland to do so. After many twists and turns, Barry did find her and he discovered a secret that made him so happy, he left the military to become a full-time detective. I had published this story as a separate book and it achieved Amazon bestseller No 1 rank. This gave me the encouragement to write the second story. ‘The Axe Murderer,’ In ‘The Axe Murderer,’ published on 4th February 2019, Barry faced many obstacles to identify the real perpetrator, as there were others who fit the profile. I took readers on a rollercoaster ride and the reviews showed that they loved the story. I was further encouraged to write the third story, ‘What happened to Mary Loo?’ on 25th May 2010. This story was written during the Covid19 outbreak. It revolves around the bizarre disappearance of a businessman’s wife immediately after the lockdown for the coronavirus pandemic is lifted. Finally, I put all three stories in one 314 page – book, and published ‘Barry Holmes Mysteries: Tales of Mysterious Disappearances’ on 16th June 2020. I loved writing these fiction stories using my imagination, and from the feedback I received, readers love them. GET THE BOOK AT THIS LINK CLICK HERE

HELLO TO ALL BRENDA's OUT THERE

Hello to all BRENDA’s out there. I found this on the Internet. "What Does the name "Brenda" Mean? You can go to great heights and equally great depths. You are emotional and fixed in your opinions. You are hospitable, sentimental, often psychic, and sometimes moody. You are ruled by love and the lack of it and feel a need to be encouraged and appreciated. You have an eventful, exciting life. You are versatile and have the ability to learn easily. Position and social status is very important for you and you are always looking for ways to improve your position in society. You have power and ability to choose your own destiny and achieve anything you want in life. You can expand in any direction according to your will and the set of values. You have passion for justice and belong to the position of authority. You have an inherent courage and endurance to accomplish "The Impossible Dream". With the power comes responsibility. You hold keys to the material world, but with this gift comes high spiritual responsibility to be fair and true to others. You are philosophical and mature, determined and intense with a desire to endure, often religious." I am not in agreement with all of it and I am sure all you readers by the name of BRENDA will have varying views. Please comment. Follow me on AMAZON

LOVE IS LIKE RAIN - JUST FOR YOU: POETIC FLOWERS - AN AMAZON NO 1 BESTSELLER

 



This video book trailer is for the Poetry Book JUST FOR YOU: POETIC FLOWERS. In the Introduction, Florabelle Lutchman stated, “JUST FOR YOU, written by Author Brenda Mohammed can lighten up your darkest hours. It can prove to be the bright candle in a dark world.” In the Foreword written by Shiju H Pallithazheth, Founder of Motivational Strips Global Family, he said, “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.” Brenda has included poems from members and Administrators of her Literary Forum – How to Write for Success. The book is an Amazon No 1 bestseller.


Here is a poem from the book:
LOVE IS LIKE RAIN

Falling in love is like a downpour of rain.

You may try to prevent it but all in vain.

You can't predict it, but can see the signs.

It’s too late, when with another your heart binds.

 

Love, like rain, does not choose the grass on which to fall.

Your heart does the choosing and makes the call.

There’s no stopping the rain when it starts to pour.

Love is like that when it reaches your door.

 

Couples are drenched with showers of love, like rain.

But when love dies, they become submerged with pain.

When you’re in love, you feel like dancing in the rain.

When betrayed by love, you never want to fall in love again.

 

Love challenges can be compared to heavy rains.

When love weakens, becomes stormy, and it wanes.

Don’t give up; pray for a strong umbrella.

If you value your love and want to stay together.

FIVE FASCINATING MEMOIRS written by AUTHOR BRENDA MOHAMMED



Your TIME is NOW: A Time to be born and a time to die.



Time is running out on each one of us.
The time to live and make a difference in someone's life is now.
This book gives several examples as to why you must live as if each day is your last one.
Live life, enjoy but extend a helping hand to someone each day.
Only YOU can make the difference in this ever-changing world.
Take up the challenge.
Your Time is Now
Poems and a section on A Brother's Wisdom are included.
Your Time is Now is the recipient of the  IHIBRP 5 Star Recommended Read Award Badge.
Extract of a Review
The author eloquently defines Ecclesiastes 3, pointing out that, by freely accepting God's will, she has been amply blessed with a faithful family, loyal mentors, good friends, and a full life.
She successfully leaves her readers with a message of hope and inspiration by sharing her belief that, through introspection and prayer, one may find meaning within the events of their own everyday experiences.
She appears to be a firm proponent of the old adage, "When days seem at their darkest, surrendering and trusting in the divine will ensure peace and prosperity".
All in all, I found this book to be quite engaging.
The author's reflections on her childhood were beyond charming in some spots, yet brought me to tears in others.
Her candidness about her relationships with parents, siblings, husband, and her own children reminded me so much of my own family's saga, and I must admit that I was thrilled to find a read that tugged at my heartstrings the way this book did!
For any individual seeking solace and meaning in today's hectic world, "Your TIME is NOW: A Time to be Born and a Time to Die" is a beautiful and soulful read.
Thank you, Brenda Mohammed, for sharing your journey with me!" 


Memoirs of Dr. Andrew Moonir Khan: Journey of an Educator.


Memoirs of Dr. Andrew Moonir Khan: Journey of an Educator, is an inspiring and motivational story.
The book received four five-star reviews from Readers Favorite.
The foreword was written by a former Chief Justice of Trinidad and Tobago, Sir Isaac Hyatali, Q.C.[now deceased]
Do you know that at one time Education was not a priority?
The young teacher Andrew overcame all obstacles and became a trailblazer in Education in his country climbing the ladder from classroom management to school principal, and superintendent of schools.
The Government of Trinidad and Tobago awarded him a scholarship to study teaching methods in the United Kingdom.
School violence was never heard of during his tenure.
He was God-fearing.
Later in life, he became the first Presiding Elder in the Presbyterian Church in Trinidad and Tobago.
He preached many sermons, some of which are appended to his biography. 

Dr. Khan gives a glimpse into life in the days of Indentureship in Trinidad and Tobago
Teachers will love Dr. Khan's memoir.
Extract of Review by K.C. Finn from Readers Favorite:
'Mrs. Brenda C. Mohammed has done a wonderful job in bringing the life, philosophy, and personality of Dr. Andrew Khan to life in this compilation of teachings.
As an educator myself, I was particularly interested in Dr. Khan's individualistic approach to students and the humanitarian way in which he achieved success.
Memoirs of Dr. Andrew Moonir Khan presents the life of an inspiring man who struggled through underprivileged circumstances to rise to the top of his field, all without losing his generosity of spirit or his creativity.
For educators, the book demonstrates how passion and planning can lead to a great many good things in the future, but for a wider audience, the book holds value as an inspiring story of faith and commitment to one's true path.
I would recommend this book for biography fans seeking a deep but feel-good read..'

Follow the author on her remarkable journey.
Read a five-star review from an Amazon Reviewer:
“Great Motivational Read!
What can I say about "Retirement Is Fun?" It's a book that gives the good and the bad of living in this 21st century. There are incredible miracles and incredible heartbreaks, yet through it all with the support of family and faith in God, we prevail.
The author wrote the story as it occurred, with no frills or embellishments. She takes the reader along with her to the many places she visited. Her obvious enjoyment in them is a testament to her wonderful spirit.
The book is written in two parts. I was happy the author gives us the good news in the first half, that way, the reader is able to see her strength and appreciate from whence she came. I was impressed with the places she had visited. I'd thought I was a world traveler, but I take my hat off to her and her wonderful family.
This is a great motivational and inspirational story for anyone who needs uplifting.”


My Life as a Banker: A Life Worth Living.


'Find the courage to go on, never giving up, even when the road of life curves.'
Set in the lovely Caribbean island of Trinidad. My Life as a Banker: A life Worth Living is much more than just a fascinating memoir. It starts with the author’s early life and childhood.
Having defied death twice at the ages of eight and nine, she excels and graduates from High School at the tender age of sixteen and lands a job with an International bank with ties to the United Kingdom. Brenda proved that hard work and determination pay, as she moved up the ranks, and received several promotions, leading up to senior managerial status.
Brenda describes changes in the banking system and changes in the bank's attitude towards its employees throughout her working years, and the important roles she played to bring about changes.
Life is not always perfect and there were sad moments that will tug at your heart. There were also happy moments, like when she met her husband and the birth of her children.
My Life as a Banker: A Life Worth Living by Brenda Mohammed was the winner of Best Bio/Memoir 2nd place in Metamorph Publishing Summer Indie Book Awards 2016.
A reviewer wrote: Must Read!
"Don't let the title with the word 'banker' in it fool you into believing this book is for finance professionals only. It is actually the true and inspiring story of one woman's immense faith and family that helped shape her into the powerful, yet humble woman she became."
