BookBuzzr Interviews Prolific Author Clint Adams





Can you tell us about yourself?



First off, thanks so much for the interview, Vikram. I sincerely appreciate what you do. Summing up 51 years…OK, let me try. Done. Well, since genetics made becoming a male stripper an impossibility, I turned to writing instead.

It's All Worthwhile

I received a response by Liza yesterday to a post I’d made on Dreams of Artists (on www.gaia.com) months ago. It was a post about creating a web presence and all the effort required. I for one sometimes wonder if all that effort is worthwhile. But…I then received an email from someone I’ve never met out of the blue this morning and, frankly, this one note makes it all worthwhile. I’d like to share it with you below.



Dear John,

On Friday . . .being the 21st August, I was in… Continue

Stress in Relationships

Stress in Relationships signal trouble. Did you ever wonder why relationships go from wonderful, to mediocre, to breaking off of the relationship? Every relationship could end this way but sooner or later you meet up with that one special person who you are most compatible with and this relationship you want to last.



Chances are when you first met your partner there was some form of immediate attraction, usually but not all the time a physical attraction. This attraction prompted you… Continue

Extra Sensory Perceptions (ESP)

Extra Sensory Perceptions (ESP)



“A human being is conditioned since birth. Learning language, enhancing vocabulary, acquiring motor skills for movements, learning vocals, basic expressions, gestures, territories and identities, emotions, fight or flight syndrome, processing so many forms of inputs from so many sources. Doing all this using a tiny ‘limited brain’ creates havoc upon the ‘unlimited’ nature of higher mind.



All extra sensory perceptions require two basic… Continue
