However well they interview, every single person would find it easier to explain their case by following these simple principles." EAMONN HOLMES, GMTV Presenter "[Drop the Pink Elephant]...tackle[s] every aspect of personal communication in a crisp, entertaining style." THE PLAIN ENGLISH SOCIETY "There can be no whitewash at the White House." (Richard Nixon). These nine words turned the American nation against their President. Why? Because people hadn't linked the White House with a cover up until Nixon himself made the connection. His own denial created the story. It is perhaps the most famous Pink Elephant in history. But what exactly is a 'Pink Elephant'? Pink Elephants are the unnecessary negatives that clutter your conversation and meaning, sending out the wrong signals to anyone you communicate with.

Book excerpt: ?I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Ms Lewinsky.? ?Bill Clinton A seemingly harmless quote. Mr Clinton was trying to get his point across no doubt. But what are the factors that most people remember about this statement? Bill Clinton. Sexual relations. Ms Lewinsky. Almost all of us fall into the deadly trap of allowing poor communication skills to obscure our meanings, reduce our effectiveness and highlight our stupidity. According to author Bill McFarlan, most of us tend to talk in these negatives, which he terms 'pink elephants'. By drawing on personal and well-known examples, McFarlan provides a host of classic ?pink elephants? and the ways and means to avoid them. Bill McFarlan has been at the forefront of British media for over 25 years, starting with local newspaper reporting and ending up as a BBC and Sky Sports presenter. He has worked on many prestigious programmes, including Breakfast News with Jill Dando and Nicholas Witchell and The World's Strongest Man.

He was bullied out of his herd and he ran away from home. Along the way he discovered that being different is not bad. He learns that believing in himself is more important than trying to be like everyone else. Come join Jamba the Pink Elephant as he learns how to follow his heart and embrace difference. Art is the medicine for social ills. Since ancient times it has been the way a society had dealt with an ugly reflection of itself. It is through art that healing and maturity of can begin. "The Legend of the Pink Elephant" is more than a book. It is a message of love and compassion in a time fueled by intolerance and hate. It is 2018 and the world as we know it is being divided by the old fires of racism, sexism, xenophobia, homophobia and so many other different ways to hate. This kind of thinking leads to a dangerous tomorrow, and i would like to stop it if i can. This book is how I hope to reach the people of tomorrow ,while their hearts and minds are open as children. It is how I hope to bring a spark of light in the darkened hearts and minds of the adults of today. By embracing difference we go beyond tolerating one another. We can learn to celebrate the wonderful things that make us different and alike. Only love can conquers hate.

PINK ELEPHANT is Rachel McKibbens' collection of beautifully crafted, emotionally searing poems depicting the fractured mythology of a family's tumultuous life. Picking up where Plath and Sexton have left off, McKibbens threatens the comfortable confines of confessional poetry with a take-no-prisoners surrealist and super-real edge. By creating a folklore out of brutality and violence (borne from misplaced or absent love) McKibbens ultimately locates both love and forgiveness, fearlessly placing them in their rightful home. McKibbens' PINK ELEPHANT is an audacious debut.
