a book about how to read people
a field guide to human behavior.
Just a reminder that everybody has their own body language and that a signal for 'yes' in one culture may mean 'no' in another; a gesture for 'good-bye' in one culture can be interpreted as 'come here' in another.
(This could also be used for character development for your fictional books too, but this is mostly on how to read people.)
(Also, I apologize for the inconsistency in some of the chapters. I have a memory of a goldfish and too lazy to edit.)

I Did Not Read Freud
This is no longer a psychology book, for the writer is neither a psychologist nor a madman. It is more like a book of systematic analysis of everyday life, in order to try to illustrate what many people see, hear, feel, live and/or talk about on a day-to-day basis. That no one is normal, everyone knows. Because if we were normal, Jesus wouldn't say to be forgiven, because we don't know what we do. So, let's try to be enlightening and, who knows, be humorous, discussing the madness to which the human being is subject. Like it or not. When I chose this title, it was thinking that I didn't really read Freud, nor did I study psychology. But I've studied behavior and events for years. The only conclusion I came to is that everyone, somehow, needs to have a few more "percent" of their brain used. The only problem is that with so much to do and so much time to do nothing; using the brain becomes very tedious. Quite an arduous task, when you have so much to do and consequently; more fun. Warning: If something doesn't suit you, please; disregard. For here I will deal with many controversial things. Such as wanting to eat with a fork, in a kitchen that only has a spoon. Or expect money that the One who owes you has not yet received. Wash the car, and soon after, the rain comes. Another thing: If you don't like it, please justify your answer. But intelligently. If you like it, please justify your liking. And believe me, I am very happy knowing that I was useful in your life. Good reading.Complete
Twice Two
She was born to be a star. Only one thing remained - to win Drag Race. But what happens when a rival appears on her path to glory - talented, determined... and the one she falls in love with? In a world where victory is worth more than feelings, she must make the impossible choice: between the dream she's lived for and the one who makes her heart race. Notes: The main characters are cisgender men. Their drag names and feminine pronouns are used in the text to convey the atmosphere and spirit of drag culture. Originally written in Russian and later dragged - quite literally - into English. Since English isn't my first language, a couple of chaotic little mistakes might appear. Don't worry, sweetie, they're just doing their own lip-sync. If you'd like to see the original performance, it's right here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/404185985-%D0%B4%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%B6%D0%B4%D1%8B-%D0%B4%D0%B2%D0%BE%D0%B5 Mirage continues her adventures in a separate story: https://www.wattpad.com/story/406884009-untucked-but-not-unfuckedComplete
Havoc
What would you do if you are offered your dream job. Probably take it without hesitation I guess? I would too. But what if it comes with a "small" catch? You'd have to move across the world and leave everybody and everything behind, Still would take it? I did. What made it so hard was the fact that the father of my child didn't think it was a 'good idea'. But still I did it. After making that decision I kinda figured out the meaning of the saying "life is a roller coaster". I had my dream job, my beautiful princess with me, even my annoying brother as a support. And made some cool friends on the road. But after one phone call a chain of events started happening that changed everything. This is life, so prepare the feel everything. I have to warn you that in this book you will find a lot of sarcasm, cursing and mature themes are included. So be warned :) And also apologies in advance if sometimes my vocabulary is a bit bland or I make some mistakes. I'm doing my first ever attempt in writing and doing it in second language:)Complete
