My Place Among Them by J. Stanion Receives 2023 HFC Highly Recommended 5-Star Award

United States, 20th Sep 2024,
 

My Place Among Them, a novel by J. Stanion, has been awarded the 2023 HFC “Highly Recommended” 5-Star Award. This recognition highlights the novel’s contribution to historical fiction and its portrayal of Indigenous history. The Historical Fiction Company (HFC) praised the novel for its in-depth research and narrative, stating, “The beautiful story told within My Place Among Them, combined with the in-depth research and beautiful prose of the author, earns this book a five out of five rating. It is incredibly well done, and Stanion has created a touching novel that does Indigenous history justice.”

The novel, based on a manuscript written by Stanion’s great-grandfather, explores the life of John Iron Horse, a twelve-year-old boy who survives the massacre at Wounded Knee. He is later enrolled in the U.S. government’s Indian Education program, where he forms a strong bond with his first teacher, a white man named Carter Heath. The novel looks into the cultural sacrifices John must make in order to succeed in a world that seeks to strip him of his heritage.

In addition to the HFC award, My Place Among Them has garnered several other accolades, including the BREW Fiction Book Excellence Award for Political Fiction of the Year 2023 and the BREW Seal of Excellence. The novel’s focus on the complexities of identity, education, and cultural preservation has earned it recognition within the literary community.

During her interview with The World’s Best Magazine, J. Stanion spoke about how her great-grandfather’s manuscript inspired her novel. “I wrote this novel because the story is based on a manuscript written by my great-grandfather who lived and worked in the turbulent world of change that was forced upon America’s Indigenous people,” she said. 

J. Stanion’s dedication to her late father’s memory is a central theme in her writing. As she revealed in an interview published by FOX 40, “My promise to my father was the single driving force behind the hours it took to complete my first novel…Dad always inspired good writing…my father always wanted us to write well”

In Emma Roberts’ article at Book Principle, “How Poetry Paved the Way for J. Stanion’s Literary Success,” J. Stanion’s background in poetry is linked to her success in historical fiction. Stanion emphasized the importance of this historical context, stating, “The original manuscript… was typed on the back of a car dealership’s stationary in 1920. The paper was fragile, the Victorian era writing was verbose and repetitive.” Through her work, Stanion aims to provide a fresh perspective on Indigenous history, reflecting her belief that “cultural identity has intrinsic value, that cultural differences have helped individual societies survive and succeed in their own place over time.”

Glenn Prior, in the Tumblr article titled “Writing as a Promise: J. Stanion’s Personal Commitment to Her Late Father,” offers insightful commentary on how J. Stanion’s dedication to her family’s history shaped her literary success. Prior emphasizes how Stanion’s meticulous research and cultural sensitivity brought historical depth to her novel. “Her immersion in Lakota history and her consultations with tribal elders,” Prior notes, “ensured that the novel authentically represents a crucial chapter in American history.” The article highlights that Stanion’s journey reflects a broader commitment to honoring and preserving historical narratives through literature.

J, Stanion, who recently appeared on Big News Network, Newsweek and MSN News where she shared views on culture, archaeology, and history, takes seriously the challenge of balancing the line between historical accuracy and creative freedom. In her interview through Vents Magazine, she explained a particular struggle while writing My Place Among Them: “It was tempting to portray a character using a piece of Pine Ridge Pottery, but it was important for the reader to comprehend the level of poverty on the reservation.”

The book is available in digital, paperback, and hardbound editions through major retailer sites such as Amazon.

Shane Krauser Instructs Arizona Constables on the Use of Force 

Published

on

The Arizona Constables Association (ACA) held their semi-annual training in Tucson, Arizona for all elected and appointed constables, deputy constables and support staff. Law enforcement officers throughout Arizona were also in attendance. 

One of the conference’s highlighted courses was a use of force training where Shane Krauser, an experienced trial attorney and firearms trainer, was brought in as the featured instructor. 

Attendees experienced an intense training exercise where they talked in intricate detail about Arizona’s justification laws. Krauser utilized simulated weapons and introduced scenarios where actors engaged the participant in real time which encouraged split-second decisions as to the legal and appropriate level of force one could use. 

“I’m not a big believer in just talking through scenarios. I believe the most effective training involves putting participants in a simulated environment that reflects conditions they might experience in the real world,” said Shane Krauser, a former adjunct professor of criminal law. 

The “real-world” training was received with enthusiasm. One former Tucson police officer, who is now a constable, indicated it was “by far the best [use of force] training I have ever gone through.” Numerous others inquired about further training by Krauser to help them understand the law. 

Chief Constable Scott Blake and ACA president noted Krauser’s supportive and creative learning environment.

“Shane Krauser’s ability to break down complex concepts into understandable terms allowed participants to grasp the material at a high level,” noted Constable Blake. 

Rob Owens, an experienced law enforcement officer, firearms trainer and NRA instructor, assisted Krauser throughout the training. 

Owens, touted for his sophisticated and comprehensive knowledge of tactics and methods of engagement, instructed the attendees in a way that allowed them to really absorb the dos and don’ts of confrontation. 

Shane Krauser, the co-author of The Arizona Gun Owner’s Guide, spoke of Owens’ expertise. 

“When you take on an obligation to train those who are placed in a position to serve and protect the public, you only bring the best and most experienced on to your staff. Rob Owens is just that, and it’s a pleasure to work and train side-by-side with him,” said Krauser. 

Shane Krauser and Rob Owens offer training to law enforcement and the general public alike and have several courses upcoming.

Press Release

Has Pi Network Found Its Challenger? WOW EARN Enters the Web3 Arena

Published

on

Dubai, UAE, 13th January 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, For years, Pi Network has been a dominant force in the world of mobile cryptocurrency mining, drawing millions of users with its promise of simplicity and accessibility. By allowing users to mine Pi tokens through their smartphones with minimal effort, Pi Network became a gateway to cryptocurrency for the masses. But now, a new contender has emerged in the form of WOW EARN, offering a fresh take on mobile mining that blends innovation, immediate rewards, and a more engaging ecosystem. Could this be the challenger that disrupts Pi Network’s reign?

Pi Network rose to prominence by breaking down barriers to cryptocurrency mining. Its approach removed the need for expensive hardware or technical expertise, appealing to users from all walks of life. With just a daily tap on the app, users could mine Pi tokens and be part of a growing global community. However, much of Pi Network’s promise remains tied to the future. Its proprietary blockchain is still under development, and the utility of its tokens hinges on the successful rollout of its ecosystem. For many, the platform’s speculative nature has been both its appeal and its challenge.

WOW EARN, on the other hand, takes mobile mining a step further. Like Pi Network, it allows users to mine tokens directly through a mobile app, making the process easy and accessible. However, WOW EARN differentiates itself by integrating tasks and engagement into the mining experience. Users don’t just passively mine; they can actively boost their earnings by completing tasks like surveys, app testing, and social media sharing. This hybrid model of mining and engagement creates an ecosystem where users can see immediate rewards while still benefiting from the passive mining experience.

What sets WOW EARN apart is its focus on practicality and immediacy. The tokens mined or earned through tasks can often be used, traded, or exchanged within the platform’s ecosystem, giving users tangible value from the outset. This contrasts with Pi Network’s approach, where the value of Pi tokens is largely speculative, dependent on future developments and adoption. WOW EARN’s ability to deliver immediate utility could make it an attractive alternative for users looking for more than just long-term promises.

The competition between these two platforms also highlights differences in their technological foundations. While Pi Network’s blockchain is still in progress, WOW EARN leverages existing blockchain frameworks to ensure transparency and security. This integration of decentralized technology enhances trust among users and sponsors alike, making it a compelling option for both earning and engagement.

Despite these differences, one thing is clear: users don’t need to choose between Pi Network and WOW EARN. The inclusive nature of today’s Web3 ecosystem allows users to engage with both platforms simultaneously. With mobile devices capable of supporting both apps, users can mine Pi tokens while earning WOW EARN rewards, maximizing their participation in two high-potential projects with minimal effort.

Whether Pi Network or WOW EARN ultimately garners the largest community remains uncertain, but one thing is undeniable: both platforms represent significant strides in democratizing access to cryptocurrency and building decentralized networks. As WOW EARN continues to gain traction and Pi Network marches toward realizing its ecosystem, users have the unique opportunity to participate in the growth of two innovative platforms. This dual participation not only maximizes earning potential but also supports the broader goal of driving Web3 adoption and creating a more decentralized future.
