The Eternal Well

From a freezing bar ditch to shaking the Texas establishment with over 517,000 votes.
A sixth-generation Texan, Marine veteran, and oilfield consultant, James Matlock never planned to run for office. But after watching Texas families robbed to support the communist government, freezing in the dark during Winter Storm Uri, and sold out by politicians who put Washington and foreign interests first, he could no longer stay silent.
Refusing power trips in the Marine Corps. Tearing up shady foreign-driver deals. Turning down a $2 million donation with strings attached. Standing on the yellow footprints at MCRD San Diego and actually meaning the oath he took.
This is the raw, unfiltered story of a man God qualified through obedience — not credentials. From delivering a baby in a rain-soaked bar ditch after arguing with the Almighty, to becoming the most hated man in Austin, Matlock’s journey proves one powerful truth:
God doesn’t call the qualified. He qualifies the obedient.
Now leading the growing Texans First Americans First movement, James Matlock delivers a bold call to restore constitutional government, protect mineral rights, secure our energy future, and put Texas and America first.
If you’re tired of “that’s how it’s always been done,” ready to honor the oath, and believe real change starts with everyday Americans, this book is your wake-up call.
There are no coincidences. Only God’s timing.

In Texas, owning the surface doesn’t mean you own the minerals beneath it.
When the landman knocks, most families sign the first offer — and lose thousands, sometimes millions, in royalties, surface damage, and future wealth.
Unleased changes everything.
Written by James Matlock — a former landman and licensed retirement planner who has sat on both sides of the table — this no-nonsense guide arms Texas landowners with the exact knowledge they need to protect their property and negotiate from strength.
You’ll discover:
• Why you should almost never sell your minerals
• How to handle seismic crews and demand full water well protection
• The critical lease clauses that matter most: singular “pipeline” language, separate compressor station agreements with 1–2% royalty override, 25% cost-free royalties, and ironclad Pugh clauses
• How to monitor horizontal wells, collect every dollar you’re owed, and enforce surface restoration
• The urgent fight for royalties on lithium, uranium, and other critical minerals extracted from produced water
Whether you own 20 acres or 2,000, Unleased gives you the practical tools to defend your land, maximize your income, and build generational wealth.
Don’t sign anything until you’ve read this book.
Protect what’s yours.

We the People
Securing the Blessings of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness for Ourselves and Our Posterity
A Citizen’s Training Manual for the American Republic
This is the book America needs right now.
A clear, primary-source training manual that takes you straight to the words of the Founders — the Declaration of Independence, the full U.S. Constitution, the Federalist Papers, and the Anti-Federalist Papers.
You will discover:
• Why the Second Amendment stands second in the Bill of Rights — as the ultimate guardian of every freedom.
• Thomas Jefferson’s bold vision of natural rights and limited government.
• The fierce debate that gave us our constitutional republic.
• Benjamin Franklin’s haunting warning: “A republic, if you can keep it.”
More than history, this is a call to action. It equips parents, students, homeschoolers, and concerned citizens with the knowledge and duty to secure the blessings of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness — not just for ourselves, but for our posterity.
Study it. Guard it. Pass it on.

From the BLACK to Breakthrough
“I sat in the darkness with a pistol to my temple, convinced I was unworthy of love, forgiveness, or any future.
God interrupted my despair with a simple phone call from my ten-year-old son.
That moment saved my life — and launched a Total Life Reset.”

This book reveals:
• How God loves you at your absolute worst
• Why bad days are actually His boot camp
• Practical tools for spiritual warfare and daily victory
• The daily prayer that changed everything
• How faith, love of country, and working with your hands rebuild a life
You are not too far gone.
You are not alone.
You are Unworthy No More.
God is calling you back into the fight.

For thousands of years, hemp was one of humanity’s most valuable crops — providing food, medicine, fuel, fiber, paper, and building materials. Then, in the 1930s, powerful industries and their allies in government and media buried it under a campaign of propaganda and fear.
Big Pharma feared THC’s natural medicinal power. Oil & Gas protected its role as the hub of inflation, profiting from engineered scarcity and geopolitical manipulation. Timber, steel, and chemical giants eliminated a superior renewable rival.
The 1937 prohibition wasted billions of taxpayer dollars on arrests, prosecutions, and incarceration for possession of a natural plant — destroying jobs, families, and causing profound mental anguish. Meanwhile, legacy pollution from aging oil wells and mines continues to burden communities and taxpayers.
In this eye-opening book, Texas author and former Railroad Commission candidate James Matlock exposes the manipulation and offers practical solutions, including the hemp-based remediation policies he championed during his campaign: mandatory hemp use at coal mines for up to five years after backfill, and using hemp with beneficial microbes for oil spill cleanups instead of costly digging and burying.
Hemp is more than a plant — it is a path to soil healing, economic independence, and true sustainability.
The future is green. The future is growing.
