Daniel Slot’s Immersive Self-Help Book that Sends Readers Sailing Across the Seas of Their Heart Soon to Display at PRLF 2024

The Printers Row Lit Fest is named in memory of the old printing houses that once made Chicago one of the hottest publishing hubs in America. Today, however, it also celebrates the rising number of indie authors and small publishers coming together as one big community to share their work in a massive outdoor showcase.

Many of these authors are eager to reinvent familiar formats and formulas. A great example is Daniel Slot, the author of a self-help book with an unconventional approach to guiding readers. Its is “Awareness Journey: The Passage to Happiness,” which presents a symbolic journey for the reader to different ports within their heart, soul, and mind. Tanzian Zhe, or just Tan for short, learns right along with the reader, as they explore the various locations and meet an interesting cast of characters representing different states of emotion. Thus, Slot is not only offering readers an exercise of inner work. He hopes the book will also be an adventurous trip in the imagination.

Many of the ideas that Slot presents in his book are also the result of his journey. Having grown up in a violent, inner-city neighborhood, he had long been soul-searching his way to a better life. This dedication allowed him to find respectable work to support his family. What started as simple lawn gigs slowly transformed into various businesses for commercial and residential properties.

Daniel never stopped searching for answers that would inspire, motivate, and realize more of his potential. Eventually, he would start volunteering to teach his life lessons before becoming an officially recognized life coach and mentor.

Visitors to the Printers Row Lit Fest can check out his book “Awareness Journey,” which will be displayed at the ReadersMagnet exhibit. The fest will be held at its historic venue, Printers Row Park, on September 7-8. Other copies can be found online at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and the ReadersMagnet digital bookstore .

Author Bio

Daniel Slot grew up in the mid-1960s in the often-violent inner city, where he understood the outlook of life held by people in that segment of society. His family’s fundamentalist Christian following gave him a solid foundation, but it never answered specific questions about God and human suffering. As a young teenager, Dan promised to refocus his life from survival to happiness and found ways to help support his family and move forward. Starting with a base of neighborhood lawn customers, Dan went on short order to develop, own, and manage various commercial and residential properties.

He continued to build his businesses, married, had three children, and began to feel part of something bigger than himself. He also met people interested in learning and being, and his focus evolved more into participating and giving. He volunteered in his children’s school and eventually helped found a Charter Montessori high school. He also became a Certified Financial Planner, a stockbroker and a registered investment advisor. He earned several awards, including the RE/MAX of Michigan Broker of the Year award.

Despite his successes, answers to those life questions still eluded him. His continuing search led to inspirational thought leaders who opened his perspective to new ideas and potential. He began to embrace the importance of people, relationships, love, and awareness, and life began to make more sense.

His experiences and increasing awareness led Dan to sell his real estate company and return to school. He graduated from Cornerstone University with honors, earning a Bachelor of Science in business management. He then started his practice as a Certified Life Success coach, trainer, speaker, and author, dedicating his time to those who want to benefit from his experiences and knowledge.

Dan lives in West Michigan with his wife of over forty years, with whom he has raised three great kids.
