EDITING TLC

Coffee and Cake --And Adoptee--in Search of Her Past  by Julia I. Meyers    Julia Meyers and I met because her daughter, Carmen, was in my third grade class.  In one of our discussions, I discovered that Julia was adopted and she was writing the story of how she went about finding her birth family, while still honoring her adoptive family.  Being the mother of five adopted children myself, I certainly was interested in learning about Julia's story. I feel honored that she allowed me to edit her book Coffee and Cake.

 

 

Love, Laughter, & Mayhem 

by Cindy Keith, RN, BS, CDP                               (Certified Dementia Practitioner)

Readers will fall in love with the stories in this book.  If you have a relative and/or friend that suffers from dementia, then this book is a must read.  I wish I had had this book when my father was alive, but the stories took me right back to him and all that we went through together.  If you know any caregivers that are dealing with struggles, please consider buying this book as a gift that will change their life and the life of the person with dementia.

Mirages and Flashbacks: Reflections of a Front-Line Gulf War Marine is Philip Lawrence's gripping story of graduating from college, earning a commission in the U.S. Marines, and serving on the front line in the Gulf War from 1990 to 1991.  Along the way he questions the war, his faith, and ultimately himself yet never wavers in his commitment to his fellow Marines.  More than just a narrative of combat and military life, Lawrence weaves into the fabric of his book passionate stories from his past as he evolves from a youth to a man.  Laced with elation, sadness, humor, fear, courage, and angst, Lawrence experiences the full range of human emotions.  Lawrence’s memoir – written almost entirely in the present tense – takes you there as you experience first-hand his life before and during the Marines as he tries to prepare himself physically and mentally for war. Mirages and Flashbacks is one of the most compelling memoirs of Lawrence's generation.
