You can see it everywhere… in buildings. . .transportation…communications. . .medicines and even in the food you eat!

All technology and everything that makes life modern come from the magical elements in the earth, water and the air.

Think of it like this, “No Metal – No Magic…and No Tech-no-lo-gy.”
You can learn about all that stuff in this book called The Magical Elements of the Periodic Table Presented Alphabetically by The Metal Horn Unicorns.

26 techno-magical elements are presented from A to Z by the magical metal horn unicorn tribe from Unimaise.

Every element page shows you

  1. Where the featured element comes from.
  2. When it was discovered.
  3. Scientific info about the element.
  4. Everyday uses for it.
  5. Plus a bunch of interesting facts!
  6. Last but not least, each element is represented by a unicorn who wields its magical powers.

The book also has an amazing unicorn themed periodic table plus special pages featuring elemental compounds and alloys.

Now, that’s “Techno-Magical!” Learn more at https://www.sybrina.com/muapt

Sybrina’s Unicorn Book Store

When I first started writing my unicorn books, I had absolutely no clue as to how many unicorn books had already been published. There are literally thousands of them. Everything from picture books for the very young to extensive novels and even some that are a little to sexy for their covers. It made me realize how nearly futile it might be to throw another one (mine) into the mix. But I have always been more of a glass-half-full person rather than one who allows over-whelming opposition to crush me. I decided that if I couldn’t beat them I would join the crowd. Seeing all of those books inspired me to create my own online unicorn book store. It is categorized by Little Kid Books, Middle Kid Books, and Books for Teens, YA and Older Readers. There are still about a thousand books to browse through at Sybrina’s Unicorn Book Store even though I’ve limited my collection to a “heat” level of 3 or 4.

More Unicorn Books – Blank Lined Notebooks

I am an Amazon Affiliate and Zazzle Associate so in addition to publishing books with words and pictures, I also publish these blank lined notebooks. They are part of the Unicorn Reader Unicorn Writer Products by Sybrina Publishing. Unicorn Reader Unicorn Writer Products were inspired by the characters (though they may not look like them in every case) in the Blue Unicorn’s Journey To Osm books. The characters were drawn by various artists but most of the final art is by the artist who runs CoSo Art Shop.

Help Yourself

Help Yourself was written after I had self-published all of the books above plus many others for my family and friends.

You can produce, publish and promote your book on your own at absolutely no cost to you.  This instruction book will show you every step you need to take to do that by yourself.  As an author, you must “Help Yourself”. If you follow the instructions in this book, you will become an independently published author and you can immediately begin to promote your book to your sphere of influence and beyond.  Start now…Just Help Yourself. 

As I worked on this book, the words I wrote for a song a very long time ago have danced around in my brain again and again.   The lyrics were little pearls of wisdom that still apply today.  The title of the song is “Help Yourself”.

I can’t think of a more appropriate title for this book.  As an author, you must help yourself.  You will not only be the writer, but in most circumstances, you’ll have to format the book yourself.  You’ll have to publish it yourself and you will have to do all of the marketing and promotion by yourself, too.

A particular line of the lyrics has come back to me over and over, “No one can do…what you can do…for yourself”.  That is so true, but more appropriately, nobody WILL do for you what you will do for yourself.  Sadly, no one is going to care about your ideas as much as you do.  Even if someone takes enough interest in your book to help you along, it will still be up to you to get the message out (promote and market it).

You’ve got to believe in yourself.  You must believe, deeply that your book has value for others.  And you must work every day to that end. Click here to listen to the song for free. Please forgive the audio recording quality.

Help Yourself – Learn To Produce, Publish & Promote Your Book On Your Own – Note: This book was written and published using CreateSpace, which is now KDP so everything in it is still applicable. Learn more here.

Sybrina’s Music

I have been a song writer for many years. I’ve been a singer, too, although I never gained any fame or fortune from it. Many of my songs were written as expressions of my feelings of what was happening in my life at the time and others were written for my books. To listen to me singing my song, visit my Sybrina Songs page.

Now days, I hire other singers who I feel can more appropriately get the message of the song across than I can. You can hear them all and see some related videos, too at my Youtube channel. Make sure to follow my channel if you visit. I am SybrinaD on Youtube. My music is also available on Itunes, Spotify, IHeart Radio , Jango , Pandora and various other streaming services.

Do you know a girl who likes to play Dress Up? She may like the Big Dress Song.

Is marriage in your future? Here’s a beautiful song and sentiment for your wedding. It’s called Today, You’re Getting Married and you can purchase the song plus the musical accompaniment track from Itunes for your own wedding singer to sing.
