Goal of this site: publishing "Living on Love" books in the U.S. through big publisherThere is specific knowledge about Love and it's power -- what is it and wow to benefit from it. It was kept secret for centuries. Whistle-blowers were silenced. We want to make it widely known to the World. First step is accomplished -- 3 books on (previously tightly held) secrets of Love are written by Klaus Joehle. Books are really good. Now comes the sharing part. It's already happening in Russia -- huge publishing house bougt Russian rights and books are already selling more then 50,000 copies. Russian translation is for 5 years online and the book already has the following. So now we are shifting focus to the USA. We want to make our books popular to the point that big US publisher would come with a publishing proposal. This is why -- if you read the books and liked them -- we ask you to leave a note in our web forum on working with Love, or in email message. We know this impresses publishers.
