Mississippi-based Book Club Teams Up with Local Subway Stores to Promote Reading
Media Personality, Conversations Book Club President and Mississippi native Cyrus Webb is excited to announce that he has partnered with two local Subway Restaurants in his hometown of Brandon, MS to not just encourage reading but reward those who are taking out the time during the summer to enjoy some great books.
Webb, who is also a Top 500 Amazon reviewer, is working with Subway Restaurant store owner Ramesh Gajjar during the months of June, July and August to share the gift of books and give away some great prizes along the way. “I wanted to encourage Rankin County residents to not just think about summer reading for the kids but take advantage of the gift of books at any age,” says Webb, 40. He reached out to Gajjar and the two agreed on this Summer Reading Challenge.
Beginning June 1st those who stop by Subway Restaurants in Brandon (either at the Crossgates location at 112 Service Dr. or at 220 E Gov. St. Downtown next to Ramey’s) will have the opportunity to fill out the Conversations Summer Reading Challenge card with 10 books that they plan on reading or are reading, along with the author of the book. The cards are then entered into a weekly drawing. Beginning Friday June 10th and continuing each Friday until August 26th, Webb will be giving away prizes that he has gotten through companies on Amazon ranging from drones, cameras,toys, watches, Bluetooth speakers, headphones and more. Each location will have it’s own winner, which means there will be two winners each week!
The first week’s drawing (Fri. June 10th) will be for a mini drone (at the Crossgates location) and a Smart Watch (at the Downtown Brandon location). You do not have to make a purchase to enter the drawing, only complete the Conversations Summer Reading Challenge card and drop off at the participating store.
Webb hopes that this is something that will catch on not just across the state of Mississippi but the country. “Reading is something we can all promote more,” he says. I am glad that I am able to do my part, and I want to work with others who would like to do the same.”
Interested in partnering with Webb to bring the Conversations Summer Reading Challenge to your establishment or organization? Contact Cyrus Webb at cawebb4@juno.com or 601.896.5616. You can also visit Webb on his website at www.cyruswebb.com.

Branden Nicholson's "31 Days of Inspiration"
Media personality Cyrus Webb is excited to share daily words of encouragement from celebrity model/fitness trainer Branden Nicholson of B. Nick Fitness in California during the month of December, heading into the New Year. The purpose? To encourage others to be the best of themselves each and every day.
Take out time to visit our website each day to find a daily dose of motivation and visit Branden online at www.facebook.com/b.nickfit
Day One: New day, new attitude...Take control, stay positive and be great!
Day Two: The reason why people give up so fast is because they tend to look at how far they still have to go, instead of how far they have come.
Day Three: If you're not growing, then you're not living. You should never be the same person two days in a row. Make it your goal to get better!
Day Four: When you are going through something hard and wonder where GOD is, remember that the teacher is always quiet during the test.
Day Five: Don't give up on what God has called you to do. The end result is worth the pain. Keep the faith.
Day Six: Today is all about choices. Choose to count your blessings rather than your problems!
Day Seven: You may be the only one that can see your vision, but if you can see it that's all that matters.
Day Eight: Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
Day Nine: The same people that are hoping you fail will be the same ones that will have to watch you succeed. Never stop. Always keep going!
Day Ten: The WRONG people in your life will keep the RIGHT people out. You've only got a few spaces so choose well!
Day Eleven: You are where God wants you to be at this very moment. Every experience is part of His divine plan.
Day Twelve: All liabilities must be let go! If they aren't building you up then they're tearing you down.
Day Thirteen: An original is always worth more than a copy. Be original!
Day Fourteen: When you focus on problems, you'll have more problems. When you focus on possibilities, you'll have more opportunities.
Day Fifteen: People who judge you by your past don't belong in your present.
Day Sixteen: Look around...Is this where you wanna be? If not, now is the time to decide to change it! The power lies in you.
Day Seventeen: Don't let your thoughts talk you out of the changes you want for yourself. Your body can do anything. It’s just your brain you have to convince!
Day Eighteen: Get up & Go forward! Let go of the past so you'll have a free hand to open the door to your future!
Day Nineteen: They can copy you but they can't be you. Just keep being a better you and get a kick out of them trying to keep up.
Day Twenty: There are quick fixes for everything in life, but greatness is not achieved in one day. It is a process that each of us must experience.
Day Twenty-One: Don't let a bad day make you feel like you have a bad life.
Day Twenty-Two: You can't expect to live a positive life around negative people.
Day Twenty-Three: I Will NEVER lower MY standards, to RAISE someone else's!
Day Twenty-Four: Direct your thoughts today because your thoughts will direct your day.
Day Twenty-Five: Temptation doesn't surrender. You have to come ready to fight everyday!
Day Twenty-Six: If you don't invest in yourself then your dreams will go bankrupt.
Day Twenty-Seven: Not everyone's opinion should be relevant in your life. Stop making irrelevant people relevant.
Day Twenty-Eight: Never let your,"mind"bully your body!
Day Twenty-Ninth: One day, you'll be just a memory for some people. Do your best to be a good one.
Day Thirty: Want to see your biggest opponent? Look in the mirror.
Day Thirty-One: Don't stress. Do your best. Forget the rest.

JuVee Productions' THE BRINK reminds us that we have nothing to fear but fear itself
by Cyrus Webb
Emmy award-winner Viola Davis is a true visionary and with Julius Tennon she has created JuVee Productions, a company that is all about promoting creativity and allowing important issues and stories to be told. This is definitely seen in their newest original short The Brink.
I don't want to give too much of it away but the storyline is one that all of us can relate to when it comes to going for what we want in life and wondering if 1) we are capable of achieving it and 2) are worthy of it. Written and starring Kaylon Hunt, we are able to see the simple truth: unless we go for whatever it is that we desire we will never know what is possible.
One of the most powerful lines in the short film is this: "It's your own fear that is holding you back, but only if you let it." The next time you feel as though you can achieve something or that a goal is out of your reach I hope you will reflect on those words, and then face your fear head-on.
Captivating and so inspiring from beginning to end, THE BRINK reminds us that we have nothing to fear but fear itself.

Truth Be Told, Super Producer Will Packer Is A Force to Be Reckoned With
by Cyrus Webb
Will Packer has worked with some of the brightest stars in Hollywood, and in the process has made a name for himself as one of the "go-to" guys for quality projects that break stereotypes and records. With a string of #1 movies and now a highly anticipated television show on NBC called TRUTH BE TOLD, he continues to show why he is one of the best in the business. "This is a challenging industry," he told me during our interview for Conversations this year. "It's tough to get into, and tough to maintain a level of success once you are in. It's a lot of hard work."
The hard work has been paying off big for Packer so that critics and movie goers alike have responded favorably to his work on the screen. He says the response is a "true validation" for his dedication to the craft. "That's the kind of validation you hope for when you are working those long hours. You hope for that kind of validation, so it feels good when you get it."
When discussing how he has been able to make his mark in Hollywood but not been changed by the industry Packer says the key is that he makes time to "get out of the Hollywood bubble" and visit his home in Atlanta. By doing this he is also showing that you can work in Hollywood and not have to become 'Hollywood' in order to "make it."
Packer also makes the time to give back as much as possible, paying it forward for the next generation. "I take the opportunity to try to work with others who have shown that they have what it takes," he says. "You can't help everybody, but you can lead by example. I try to set an example of what it takes to be successful in this industry." For him the ingredients include "hard work, having good people around you and having a lot of faith."
His advice for anyone who wants to be successful in whatever they are doing? "You never know where you are going to end up. Whatever you are doing give it 110%. You can't just decide one day to start being great. You have to give 110% everyday, even if it's a job that you don't particularly love. When the opportunity arises you got to be ready for it. You have to be used to always working hard."
Watch the new show TRUTH BE TOLD (starring Mark-Paul Gosselaar as Mitch and Tone Bell as Russell) Friday nights on NBC @ 8:30p.m. et/7:30p.m. ct, and tweet using the hashtag #TruthBeTold and the twitter handle @NBCTruthBeTold.

Mississippi Media Personality Cyrus Webb Pays Tribute to author Jackie Collins
For over 20 years media personality Cyrus Webb was a fan of international bestselling author Jackie Collins, however, in 2013 the Mississippi native also got to call her a friend.
As host of the radio show Conversations LIVE, Webb has interviewed over 6k guests in his 12 years on the air, but when it came to reaching out to Ms. Collin's publicist he was nervous. Imagine his excitement when the answer came back yes to an interview, and in 2013 the bestselling author made her first appearance on the program.
Calling Webb one of her favorite interviewers, Ms. Collins would return two other times: once in 2014 promoting her book CONFESSIONS OF A WILD CHILD and this year in June discussing her latest book THE SANTANGELOS. Also in June Webb traveled to New York to meet Ms. Collins for the first time and got a chance to interview her face-to-face for his web-series Cyrus Webb Presents.
Ms. Collins passed away on Sat. September 19, 2015. In this one-hour special Webb shares their three interviews together and pays tribute to the woman who touched millions around the world through the power of words.

Why I Traveled from Mississippi to New York to Meet Jackie Collins
20 years.
Before 2015 that is how long it had been before I walked the streets of New York. I was 19 years old the last time I was there, and though my intentions were always to come back for a visit or to catch a show, it never happened. That is until June 2015.
So what brought me back to the Big City all the way from Mississippi? Two words: Jackie Collins.
I have been a fan of her books for over 25 years, and have had the honor of interviewing her now 4 times on my radio show Conversations LIVE as well as feature her in the pages of Conversations Magazine. We have chatted, laughed together and stayed connected---but never met. So when I was offered the opportunity to not just discuss her new book THE SANTANGELOS with her over lunch but have some one-on-one time, there was NO WAY I could resist.
On Wednesday, June 17, 2015---just one day after her new book released---I found myself at the Hotel Plaza Athenee in New York at an event hosted by Socially Speaking and Get Red PR with other fans/bloggers/journalists sitting at the table with the international bestselling author.
She was everything you would have hoped she would be: gracious, confident and all too ready to discuss her new book and to listen to us as well.
It was intriguing to hear her discuss the characters she has created, the parallels to pop culture today and even elaborate on her love of creating strong female voices in her books.
I could not have asked for a better experience, especially when it came to getting my book signed and reading her inscription...
Not only has Jackie Collins created a timeless character in Lucky Santangelo but she, herself, is timeless as she shows no signs of slowing down, even discussing with us her autobiography that is now in the works.
The time with Ms. Collins was well worth the trip, and I would happily do it again.

Stephanie Mitchell of Jackson, Shares Inspiring Message with debut Children's Book
"I can't believe this day is really here," she says, reflecting on the time she has worked to make something like this a reality. "It feels good to see this dream come true."
BELLA'S DANCE LESSON is the children's book Mitchell wrote with media personality and author Cyrus Webb of Brandon, MS. The story is about a young girl named Bella who wants to do well at a dance audition, but when things take a turn will she be able to pick herself up and keep trying?
"I'm so proud of Stephanie and the story of Bella," says Webb, 39. "This story is going to inspire not only young kids about what they can do even when things don't always go according to plan, but will reinforce for adults as well why they should never give up on their goals and dreams." Webb is also
the author of the inspirational book WORDS I CHOOSE TO LIVE BY, the children's book AUBREY'S WORLD and has co-authored the children's books A.J. AND THE TALENT SHOW with Herschel Dixon of Louisville, KY and STANDRIA'S BIG DREAM with Stanley Clark of Pickens, MS.
BELLA'S DANCE LESSON is available on Amazon here: http://www.amazon.com/Bellas-Dancing-Lesson-Fall-Down/dp/1508852766/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1426253573&sr=1-1&keywords=bella%27s+dancing+lesson
Stephanie has already been visiting schools and after school programs in the Jackson area sharing the message of Bella.
Her message to anyone out there with a dream? "Don't let anyone tell you what you can't do. With hard work anything is possible."
Listen to Stephanie discuss her book on the radio show Conversations here.

Cyrus Webb Announces New Programs, New Books and more
The 39 year old began the year still celebrating the publication of his inspirational book WORDS I CHOOSE TO LIVE BY, but in February of this year he added a new title to his resume: children's book author!
Joining forces with author Herschel Dixon of Kentucky, Webb co-wrote and published the book A.J. AND THE TALENT SHOW, a book that not just encourages reading but the importance of being yourself. Within weeks the book became a Top 100 Bestseller on Amazon.com! (Webb seen here sharing the message of A.J. with a Pre-K class at John Hopkins Elementary in Jackson, MS)
In March Webb co-wrote two additional children's books with Mississippi authors Stanley Clark (STANDRIA'S BIG DREAM) and Stephanie Mitchell (BELLA'S DANCING LESSON). He also wrote AUBREY'S WORLD. Each of the books share themes of believing in yourself and not allowing challenges to stop you when it comes to pursuing your goals and dreams.
All the titles are available for purchasing on Amazon.
This year Webb also joined forces with Co Star Urban Broadcasting in Little Rock, AR, becoming the voice of their news program. Each weekday he is heard in over 2 dozen cities across the country sharing the news of the day and including entertainment tidbits from his radio show Conversations LIVE. Because of the popularity of the program Webb began hosting Conversations Daily News live weekdays at 7a.m. et/6a.m. ct bringing "the news you need, the conversations you want and the positivity you can't get enough of." The show is in its third week and has already garnered an international following.
You can continue to catch Conversations LIVE radio show each week at www.conversationsliveradio.com.
During the month of April Webb will be touring with his co-authors, sharing the messages of their books and encouraging others to pursue their goals and dreams. For updates visit www.cyruswebbpresents.com. Contact Webb at cawebb4@juno.com or 601.896.5616.
