The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you;
Don’t go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want;

People are going back and forth across the doorsill where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.
Don’t go back to sleep.

~ Rumi

Her advice doesn’t seem like the typical “do this, do that,” advice because Anne’s approach is subtle and full of insight. I sense her deep respect both for where I am–now–and where I have the potential to be, and that allows me to “be here now” but also to dream big.”

Authors: Bobbie Jo Lieberman & Kenny Weber

Full Title: Lyme Disease: A Growing Threat to You and Your Horse

Publisher:Trailblazer Magazine

To anyone currently living with Lyme disease, my advice, in brief, boils down to these three things: – Be prepared to face negativity from physicians who do not have adequate information about the disease, and try not to take it personally… I wish you good health.

Title: Dead, Insane, or in Jail: A CEDU Memoir

Publisher: Not with the Program

Zack’s well-written tale does a remarkable job of recalling his thinking and his feelings as he gradually internalizes the madness of his everyday life and the hopelessness of his situation. In the tradition of “Darkness At Noon,” Zack’s history puts the reader into the life that too many “survivors” experienced, and he does this in a finely crafted page-turner.

—Philip Elberg, Esq., Newark, NJ

I have the feeling that I don’t write my books, that the story is somewhere floating. My job is to be quiet, to be silent and alone, and ready to tune in to those voices and write the story.
