Chicago, IL (PRWEB) August 1, 2009
Write One Publications, Inc. releases their newest title Pull Your Pants Up and be a man! Author Bernice Harris, a long time resident of the Chicago Englewood community says of her idea for the self-help book (http://www. writeonepublications. com/index. php? option=com_content&task=view&id=52&Itemid=30), "The idea came out of what I observe daily; young men standing on street corners, seemingly without goals or direction. I believe if they are given practical things to do, and if they apply these things they would make positive changes in their life."
Pull Your Pants Up and be a man! is a self-help book (http://www. writeonepublications. com/index. php? option=com_content&task=view&id=52&Itemid=30) to inspire thought and change. It will benefit the young 13-year-old boy who may not be fully aware of the steps he should take in planning a good life. It will be equally beneficial to the 18-year-old who has wandered away from a life of decency and good judgments. Pull Your Pants Up covers: What kills a dream? How can you start to dream again? Is it too late for you? How important is education in reaching your goal? What is a family, and what role do you play in making it work? How are you related to your neighborhood? How do you show respect? What is the honest way to make money and save it?
