I Just Look Like This is a tell-all where Shoels opens up her life to the world and provides the opportunity to judge her, whether positively or negatively. A scary thought for anyone. Readers will choose to either walk with her or out on her, but she is willing to take this risk. Shoels covers childhood experiences that eventually played a major role in the adult she has become. She has fought with depression and addiction and loneliness despite the love she receives from her three children, and she shares a dark time in her life where she experiences a hollowness that she would not wish on her worst enemy. However, she fought through and hopes her words can become a turning point for others.

About the Author

Shakia Shoels is a thirty-four-year-old first-time author writing "I Just Look Like This." Writing is something that she has always enjoyed doing. She never imagined herself using her writing skills and life experiences to complete a book. However, something's she's experienced over the last couple of years have given her an inspiring story to tell. She was working with a life coach Corey who was also her friend of over 20 years. He was able to help her pinpoint some of the areas of her life that she might benefit from and be able to help others if only she dared to explore those feelings. So that is precisely something she did. Her first book is what she would consider being a tell-all book. She is opening up her life fully to the world, which is a scary thought for anyone. It gives the world the open opportunity to judge her both positively and negatively. People will rock with her or walk out on her, but that is a risk she is willing to take. She covers some of her childhood experiences that unknowingly played a huge role in her adult life and her decision-making skills. Over the years, she has fought depression and addiction and simply feeling alone beside the love she got from her three children. There was a period that she was in a shallow and dark place that she dare not wish on her worst enemy. She fought hard and pushed through many things that would have taken out the average soul. But she is far from average. Identifying or understanding what someone else might be going through could mean a huge turning point for some. So with her book, that is what she hopes. She first handily knows what it is like to feel alone, and if she can help someone not feel that way, she will do so by any means.

Right of withdrawal

Instructions for revocation

Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods

Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)

Instructions for revocation

Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,

on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.

You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.

In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.

Consequences of the revocation

If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.

We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.

You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.

You bear the direct costs for returning the products.

You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.

Criteria for exclusion or expiry

The revocation right is not available for contracts
