Edward R. Lipinskis Werewolf on Madison Avenue will be exhibited by self-publishing and book marketing company ReadersMagnet at the 2023 San Diego Union-Tribune Festival of Books. The book festival will be presented by the University of San Diego at 5998 Alcala Park, San Diego, CA, on August 19, 2023. Werewolf on Madison Avenue follows Jeff Foxlove, the ace advertising copywriter of Cudmore Advertising Agency. Jeff masters the art of writing tasteless advertising copy and has no reservations about wallowing in the mud of sleazy advertising. Even so, he makes a good salary and has attracted the attention and affection of an aspiring but dimwitted actress, Dixie Durante.
Jeff explores the Yucatan Jungle while on vacation. During this trip, he gets savagely bitten by a mysterious, feral creature of the night. Fortunately, he manages to fight off the beast. The next morning, his injuries heal as if he has never been attacked the night before.
He returns to New York City to resume his normal life. However, on the night of the next full moon, he experiences the agony of a horrible metamorphosis: Jeff turns into a blood-thirsty werewolf. As the feral creature, he roams the city streets to look for human victims. In the morning, he goes back to his human self, asking questions about what happened to him. Jeffs only way out of this dilemma is to go back to its source, the Yucatan Jungle. He needs to find a miraculous cure so he can return to his normal self. Will he?

Plastic surgery has only gotten more and more accessible in recent years, and the best thing about it is that it can be used to improve or change people’s appearance. In addition, it is also an effective way of correcting physical defects. Needless to say, this procedure has helped several individuals regain their confidence and improve their outlook in life. However, all surgery poses varying levels of risk, including plastic surgery. Aside from this, there is always a growing concern about how naturally the results will look. The chances of plastic surgery being botched exponentially increase depending on how extreme the surgery is. That’s why Dr. Edward Chamata has made it his mission to perfect the “natural” plastic surgery result. Dr. Edward Chamata is a first-generation Lebanese immigrant who has established a distinguished career as a surgeon specializing in body sculpting. Clients flock from all over the world for his amazing results performing BBLs, tummy tucks, and liposuction procedures. His jaw-dropping procedures include high-definition liposuction, in which he contours the body to create a refined and natural look and improves muscle definition using complex sculpting techniques. He is world-renowned for what is now known as the Chamata Chiseled Tummy Tuck, which is a method he developed to improve conventional tummy tuck techniques. For instance, Dr. Chamata’s surgery incorporates complex and perfectly positioned incisions that expertly disguise the scars and produce a sculpted abdomen that creates natural curves. In contrast, conventional tummy tucks leave the abdomen region lacking a natural and toned appearance and cause apparent scarring around the belly button. A new era of plastic surgery has begun as a result of Dr. Chamata’s passion for his field and prolific accomplishments. As a result, more natural-looking results are becoming more popular than the overdone, exaggerated look, which is apparent in celebrity style too. Dr. Chamata’s results are widely raved about throughout the world, and it’s no surprise that he has over 50,000 followers on social media. Online, he posts before and after transformations of his patients to teach his followers the value of opting for procedures that offer more natural-looking results and harmonize with the whole body and face. Dr. Chamata got his start in surgery after arranging and directing many medical excursions to third-world nations in Latin America while he was in medical school. His involvement in surgical missions with plastic surgery groups later developed into providing free reconstructive plastic surgery on children in need, including cleft lip and cleft palate operations. These experiences has become a vital point in his life that developed his passion for helping people get the plastic results they want. What motivates him to keep going is always the pursuit of excellence and breaking through new innovations in plastic surgery. “My daily motivational force is to always push the boundaries of what can be achieved with plastic surgery and to always strive to improve on older techniques in order to propel the field of plastic surgery to new heights and provide every patient with the results they deserve!” he said.
