Dorothy Morris graduated from high school in May 1973 and in September that same year, began teaching at the Salem Basic School. It was her first experience teaching students numbers and letters. She learned a lot during that year that you have to encourage and involve the parents in the child's education. She later went off to college and returned to teach at her former high school where she became Ms. Gordon instead of Dorothy. She stood proudly beside some of her former teachers and seek their guidance whenever possible.Her parents played an active part in the Jamaican political arena and were strong advocates for the poor and needy. As a result of this, her siblings and she learned how to share and give to the poor and needy. That was her first exposure to social work which became her focus when she migrated to the USA. She continued her studies and graduated from Adelphi University with a Masters in Social Work, and as a Social Worker she has worked with children and families, with the HIV/Aids community, and incarcerated youths with the New York Board of Education. She later worked in alternative high school. These were students who did not graduate from traditional high school and decided to take the GED examination. This book covered the role that a grandparent played as a parent, a guardian, a protector, and as the book states, a predictor of the future.

Jeran was late. It was his job to grind the oats into flour for tomorrow morning's bread, and he was running late. It takes time to get the proper texture, and starting late would put him behind schedule. In truth, it was his schedule. He chose this specific job as his way to serve the farm, but he took his responsibility seriously. He frantically grabbed his red cap off the hook and ran from his home in the old oak tree, not checking to see if anyone was around. That was a mistake. If he had been paying attention, he would have seen the glow of the light in the barn and known someone was still awake.And so begins the tale of a little tomte and the adventure it sets into motion when Jeran accidentally meets the farm boy, Hagan. They form an unlikely friendship that sees them through some harrowing experiences, encounters with fairies, and learning the meaning of home. Come along into the world of Norse and Celtic mythology as Jeran and Hagan discover that love and friendship are where you find it.

Poetry is not the kind of expression that one just decides they want to pursue. You are born with madness inside that just eats away at you both mentally and emotionally. For a poet, it can be beautiful and imaginatively introspective, and it can at times be destructive through its melancholy and divisive when your emotions are spun out of control only to feed your inner monologue in ways that beg the question of who is really writing this.Jeremy's poetry is constantly scratching at both ends of the spectrum in his work. There isn't necessarily a clear path, but one that is constantly gauging the forks by their virtue. The few pieces that do stick to one end of an emotional divide do so with a beat and very sticky wordplay.

My personal story was written to show and relate the experiences I had working as an executive in Southwest Georgia in the late nineties through 2009. I heard stories from my in-laws about the experiences they had growing up in the South, but I never believed it would happen to me. I grew up thinking that because of my education, life was going to be easy for me and my family. I had not experienced this form of discrimination in my entire life, due to the fact that I was raised by white people from the age of fifteen to twenty-four. I felt it only happened to individuals who were lazy and wanted to blame their circumstances on others. I knew it would not happen to me because my husband was a successful lawyer licensed in three states; my in-laws were doctors; and I had a great education. Needless to say, I found out when we moved to Georgia - even after associating with the President of the United States and the likes of the founder of Habitat for Humanity International - it was obvious that I was still colored.

Confluence at Travis House: and Additional Five Plays by Ernest McCarty Jr
This is a collection of poems written by my son, Brendan, since he began at the age of nine years old. Brendan's poems vary from simple to raw emotions. When you read one, you are able to feel the author's sorrow or joy. All of Brendan's poems have meaning from his heart and soul. Brendan's greatest weapon was his words, and those would get to the heart of anyone who read them. You might have to reread them more than once to find their meaning, but it is well worth the revaluation. Brendan had the ability to touch people's hearts with his words, and that was a very special gift.Lessons take time to learn. He questioned things. Life, God, pain, and hate--that's what his poems are all about. Brendan took people like days, one at a time. Brendan tried to understand life, good, and bad; and God was his road map. Some of Brendan's poems can be dark, but they have that ray of hope by the time you get to the end. Brendan wrote poems about his experiences, such as the birth of his son. Sean Patrick Barrett inspired one of his greatest poems, "One Big Wheel," a poem to help survive life any way you can and keep your soul. I hope his words give you strength and encouragement as they have to many others.I present Brendan Patrick Barrett's life work in his own words. Take the journey, and enjoy the ride.
