Trixie grew up as the oldest sibling in her family, active members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Alcoholism was present but well-hidden throughout the early years of her life and beyond, with the kind of impact on family dynamics that have been documented repeatedly and featured in novels, biographies, and movies. The unique twist here is the prohibition against alcohol in the Church, which adds another level of complexity and healing to the recovery process. How safe is it for a family in distress to openly discuss the root cause of the problem in a faith that espouses abstention and has a shadow side of making judgments? Trixie's objective in sharing her memoirs is to give others struggling with addiction consequences an enhanced hope through the Atonement of our Savior Jesus Christ.

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.

When Religion Hurts is a story about the potentially inhibitive effects of early childhood religious indoctrination. While the story itself is fiction, many of the events are based on the real-life experiences of the author and others who grew up as Jehovah's Witnesses. These real-life experiences are expressed through the personal and professional struggles of the main character in her unconscious and then conscious fight to break free from the psychological chains of religion. Like many who have experienced the heavy weight of religious control and manipulation, she believes she has to choose between her profession and her God. A person's chosen profession can be an expression of who he or she is. Denying oneself of a beloved vocation may actually be denial of who you are. Mailin is forced to grapple with this and many other issues as she strives to find her spiritual independence. Though the story focuses on the Jehovah's Witness organization, many of the truths uncovered can and should be applied to any religious system where the rules and rituals take authority over the individual, or personal relationship one should have with his or her Creator.13

Sol's lot in life was bitter. He was the littlest wolf in a pack that only cared about the strong, the butt of every joke, the plaything of his cruel packmates. What if one day, they decided to kill him, just for the fun of it? Rather than wait around to find out, Sol ran. He was less than a winter old. He ran and ran and ran until he fainted, and while he slept, another pack happened across his scent and discovered him there.They were not like his old pack. They welcomed him, although he was a stranger, they showed him hospitality, though he had nothing to offer them in return. Their leader, Hawthorn, treated Sol like one of their own. At first, Sol thought it must be some sort of trick, but it was true.And so Sol forswore his old pack and their ways in his heart and swore loyalty instead to Hawthorn and to his pack. Together, they ventured forth on a quest to reclaim their ancestral home: Rosethorn Mountain. Easier said than done.A terrible threat hounded Sol at every turn: Shaskar, leader of Sol's old pack.

Shaskar intended to slaughter the Rosethorn pack in the name of his late father, though it grieved him to kill his old friend. Many ordeals lay in wait for Sol and his pack, lest they reach their beloved home...

In Trunk Junk, Marbles, and Lace, the third and final book of the BnB Biddies series, we continue the adventures of our friends through their process of retirement, relocation, and future plans. All but one of our ladies have found true love for the second time (except Babs, who is happy in her first and only marriage), and all have enjoyed their BnB experiences. This book leads us into a community-based yard sale and the philanthropic nature of the women and their men and follows the active but admittedly aging group into their redirection of interests. The activities abound and the retirement process is that many of our senior citizens go through themselves--and a joyful one at that.Our characters remain Lil (now married to Bill), Ditty (now married to Gregory), Milly, Izzy (now married to Jack), and Babs (remaining married to Gerald). Enjoy!

The purpose of the mind is to create self. The purpose of the renewed mind is to create self in the image and likeness of God in both form and function.The mind is not in the brain.The mind is born in darkness. It has to learn everything.The mind/spirit is a mirror image of the body/brain. A mind-body marriage.The mind answers the brain's what, when, and where questions with the how, who, and most importantly, why answers.The mind is a prosecutorial tool, always seeking after the truth.The mind must have a reason for the behavior of the body.Trust is the movement of faith.Revelation is experiential knowledge imprinted within our being.

Why civic virtue matters to America.America is at a crossroad. Current public opinion surveys report that Americans believe that the country is on the wrong track, and they are broadly pessimistic about the future. Diminishing social trust, lack of civility, and promotion of individualism over community has resulted in a country that is discontented, fractious, alienated, and divided. What is happening to our American values and virtues?Our American Founders believed that the government cannot secure the rights of individuals without a necessary moral foundation, and they were praised as examples of virtue. What were the virtues and values that were so important to the American Founders, and are they relevant today?Focusing on the lives of these early leaders will reemphasize the importance of these virtues, and the power of their examples will teach us lessons that we can apply to the challenges we are facing today as we strive to attain the high ground.

Humans inherently seek control, and this book demonstrates how the leadership in the future will resort to science in order to achieve an absolute power. All those control methods are in simple terms explained in the text. Not only the leadership but also the scientists must shoulder the guilt. The leadership justifies its action by claiming that humans have misunderstood and therefore indiscriminately abused their freedom, fomenting irreconcilable conflicts. In the world of 2252, family as a manifestation of free will is forbidden. Only genetically selected and modified individuals are used for reproduction. A Medulla control (Medcon), a Vibrotector (a nano transducer at the base of the skull) and an Emotector, positioned at the mamilothalamic tract, are at birth implanted into newborn brains, enabling the Central Computer to constantly monitor all citizens' locations, their speech, and their emotional state. Medcon can also inflict three intensities of reprimand (pain, seizures, and death). Eventually, the scientists, too, fall victim. They organize the doomed Eurasus Revolution. Ultimately, only several determined people are left whose human spirit is never permitted to fail them. In contrast to other dystopian literature, this book is based only on applied science and is not imaginary.
