Author Yahya H. Affinnih’s New Book, “Why Has West Africa Become a Nexus for the International Traffickers,” Seeks to Explain the Issues Affecting West Africa Today


Rensselaer, NY, May 24, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Yahya H. Affinnih, a native of West Africa who holds a PhD in sociology from New York University, has completed his new book, “Why Has West Africa Become a Nexus for the International Traffickers”: an eye-opening exploration of why West Africa has become international traffickers’ transshipments and transits hub and cocaine distribution and repackage centers for cocaine en route to Europe.

From 1990 to 1992, Affinnih was a postdoctoral research fellow at the National Development and Research Institutes, Inc. (NDRI) NYC Behavioral Sciences Training Program in substance use and misuse funded by the National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA). This program has contributed immensely to the development of his interest in drug abuse research in general and drug trade in particular.

Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Affinnih’s new book was conceived because of recent international traffickers’ unprecedented inundation of cocaine through West Africa to Europe and its unintended consequences for West African countries that have become a global security concern.

“This book is informative for a wide variety of readers such as students, social analysts from different social sciences disciplines, drug policy makers in West African countries, and elsewhere in the world,” Affinnih writes. “The book’s subject matter is a global-wide problem that concerns all modern human societies worldwide. There are no human societies that are immune to the dynamics of the global drug trade industries that pose threat to human, national, and global security in its wake.”

Readers can purchase “Why Has West Africa Become a Nexus for the International Traffickers” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

Author Denise A. Powis’s New Book, “Just be Yourself and No One Else!” Follows Three Punctuation Marks Who Try to Change Who They Are But Simply Cause Confusion


Copenhagen, NY, October 07, 2025 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Denise A. Powis, a loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who enjoys painting, inventing, writing, and gardening, has completed her new book, “Just Be Yourself and No One Else!”: a heartfelt story that follows three punctuation marks who discover the importance of being true to themselves and what they do best.

In 2005, author Denise Powis received a bachelor of science degree from Empire State College, and she has worked for many years in the helping professions as a certified nursing assistant, home health aide, and substitute teacher for special education classes. At the present time, she teaches a Bible study/support group for women. In 1979, she won a 17 Islands National sailboat race.

In “Just Be Yourself and No One Else!”, readers are introduced to a period, an exclamation point, and a question mark who all long for a change of pace and decide to switch places one day. However, they soon discover they are not well suited for performing their new roles, and decide that they were made perfect for their original purpose.

Published by Hawes & Jenkins Publishing, Denise A. Powis’s engaging tale will delight readers of all ages as they discover the importance of accepting one’s self and being true to who they really are. With colorful artwork and a powerful life lesson, “Just Be Yourself and No One Else!” will help boost confidence amongst young readers, leaving a lasting impression long after the final page.

Why Music Matters—Especially in Later Life

The release of Magical Musical Memories aligns with research indicating music’s capacity to reduce stress and rekindle recollection among people living with dementia. It also echoes widely shared experiences—from football legend Sir Alex Ferguson to the family of singer Tony Christie—of music’s unique ability to unlock the past.

Inside the Community Spirit

“From the songs that we danced to at our first school dance, to the albums that became the soundtrack of our lives, each memory is a testament to the moments that have defined us,” said Helen Davies-Parsons, Chief Executive of Dormy Care Communities. “Music can transport us back to a specific time and place. Through these recollections, memories will now live on.”

How to Buy the Book—and Support Local Charities

The coffee-table style book is priced at £15. Copies can be purchased by contacting any of the five homes directly; card payments can be taken over the phone and books can be posted. A portion of every sale will be donated to local charities.
