A single woman's journey with her twenty-four points of life, this is the tale of the youngest of four raised by quasi-empty nester parents in the fast-growing suburbs of Chicago. Through several political assassinations, a deadly tornado, and absent siblings by the tender age of ten, Anna quickly grew accustomed to a life of solitude and a developing self-competence. Leading the way as mentors, Anna's three older siblings acted as superb role models even if from a distance. Along with guidance from her aging parents, she learned the importance of a robust education, a healthy work ethic, and being kind to others. Sadly, Anna was never able to conceive children but rather found herself traveling across the country and uncoupling from ex-husbands as the fertile years faded. To stay afloat financially, Anna earned college degrees while working full-time jobs, quenching her thirst for knowledge while cultivating vital skills. She focused on nurturing new and lifelong friendships, building a list of invigorating hobbies, and learning to enjoy her own company, especially as sibling rivalry reared its ugly head. Her twenty-four points of life unmistakably lay the groundwork for solo success for women and men alike.

Empress Isabella feared the burly-bodied, six-legged, narrow-headed creature known as kessra. Her fear of the Planos predator, combined with the late Admiral Harrington's suspicions of the creature's intelligence, made each seek a different path to aid Jennifer and the natives of Planos.Isabella never imagined the transformation of Jennifer's mountain cavern home into a functional pioneering homestead with a few modern technological advantages to enhance their safety would become the focal point of the fearsome creature's rage.She knew Taric was aware the empire had to remain true to the charter's bylaws of noninterference in the natural progression of species evolution. Upon receiving Taric's vid message, she witnessed his emergence as a leader, formally requesting the establishment of political and trade relations between their worlds, instantly providing the empire an opportunity to assist without actively interfering with a trade partner's internal affairs.Leaning back in her desk chair with her eyes closed, imagining Jennifer witnessing the siege of her mountain home amid a rising number of savage, unforgiving predators encroaching into the territory, a frightening vision began to play out in her mind of terrifying enraged beasts rapidly advancing toward Jennifer in a coordinated swarm.Shivering with fright, not wishing to see further into the depths of her imagination, Isabella opened her eyes, fearfully shouting in the privacy of her empty office, "No! No! That's not real!"Yet questioning the imaginative visions within her mind's eye, Isabella sensed a faint nagging presence of premonition, asking her, "Or is it?"Apprehensive of the grim reality facing Planos increased Isabella's anxiety over the survival of vulnerable natives living in the eastern wilderness. However, in this case, Isabella believed any variation of humanoid life in the galaxy has more value than a merciless predator with feeding habits akin to sharks inhabiting Earth's oceans.Isabella had to return to Planos, secretly hoping Merlin, the AI inhabiting the fleet's flagship, Maleficent, could ascertain the true scope of the crisis and provide a course of action without violating the charter's strict bylaws.

I gave very little thought to the direction my early life was taking, yet some people considered me to be successful because I avoided the pitfalls of poverty, drugs, crime, and imprisonment. However, a one-sided junior high school crush motivated me to study. That determination to study strenuously over a three-and-a-half-year period allowed me to build an educational foundation that enabled me to do well on an I.Q. test. Then an Air Force career field assigning person, mistakenly or otherwise, overlooked the fact that I was Black and recommended that I be trained as an intelligence specialist. The recommendation was rejected in 1948 (but not cancelled) since segregation policies kept Blacks from living with and attending classes with other races until late 1949. I believed I could be good at something other than manual labor. As a result, I charted workable careers, both in and out of the Air Force, to attain my objectives. I hope that I am still young enough at 92 to persuade others that it is much later than any of us think. Whether or not I'm still here, please stay involved and convince those that you meet to do the same. Just as a match can't be unstricken once it has been ignited, we must unite and ensure that the conditions, so essential to living creatures, recover and continue to thrive on a vibrant planet Earth in the future.
