    Regarding How to Talk about the Dead Jeff Newberry's one of our great poets of place--threading memory through local salt and sod to arrive at the universal. And his poems are prayers--quiet and resonant. Not so much tablets of wax as bees. Each poem one tiny traveler bringing home browsed and gleaned and bumped against flowers and lees. Inside Newberry's deft sensory weaves, the honey isn't in the lion's head: no, it's in our ears, on our eyes, and painted thick across our mouths. And always the bittersweet and the sweet intertwine. I finished this shining book and sat very still for a long time. Such is the rooted soaring you are in for. In How to Talk about the Dead, each walking stick is a dowsing rod. -Abraham Smith, author of Insomniac Sentinel & Dear WeirdoThere is a progress situated fully in this new collection by Jeff Newberry beginning in the hard, green, at times bitter, realizations grown from childhood innocence and reprisals of the nuclear family set in home ground and waters of his native Gulf Coastal Florida and South Georgia. Questions of being continually surface in a determined self-examining poesis cast throughout this volume, where a natural ripening and softening occurs in the author's transcendence from fathered to father, fledgling to provider as he, with skilled hands and full-grown voice, traverses the soul's terrain. Herein you'll find some of the most miraculous tenderness ever committed to verse in a mortal suite devoted to his beloved just-born daughter, thread certain needles of realization beyond, and like whole life arrive at the gates of certain heaven wondering, as must we all, whether to go in.-Sean Sexton, author of Portals and May Darkness Restore.

    About the authorPoet and playwright Debra Kaufman is the author of God Shattered, Delicate Thefts, The Next Moment (all from Jacar Press), and A Certain Light (Emrys Press), as well as three chapbooks. A Midwest native, she lives in central North Carolina.http: //www.Debrakaufman.info Early Praise for Outwalking the Shadow: Over the years, I have watched, with admiration, Debra Kaufman steadily and elegantly amasses a body of work that brilliantly illuminates the daily minute-by-minute hazards and epiphanies of abiding in this capricious earth. With both eyes open, a capacious heart, and a lyric, contemplative voice, she graciously, courageously ignites the moment, however flickering, however ephemeral-even harrowing-yet always worthy of her precise, shimmering language. Adrienne Rich wrote, "[s]ensual vitality is essential to the struggle for life." Kaufman understands this aesthetic perfectly, as well as "the struggle." Outwalking the Shadow is powerfully and unabashedly sensual, Kaufman at her unflinching absolute best: "one voice lifted / to the troubling, never-ending skies"-a tapestry of praise and righteous caution. What an immaculate, necessary, and beautiful book.- Joseph Bathanti, former Poet Laureate of North Carolina and author of twelve poetry collectionsOutwalking the Shadow opens with a wren's warning song and ends with the poet apologizing to the wren: "I am sorry, sorry, so so sorry, / for what you don't know is coming." Still, for all the dark at its heart, this collection is radiant with the lightness of a love for this world. Debra Kaufman's poetry is clear and emotionally compelling, a lyrical search for identity and truth through pain, loss, and the fierce beauty of nature.- Judy Goldman, author of Child: A Memoir and Losing My Sister

  • - Stories of Redemption and Freedom
    av B David Jones

    This book with it's treasured stories has been on our bucket list of things we always wanted to do in the Exodus Movement. We talked about it, dreamed about it, prayed about it, and even had a name for it - The Exodus Diaries. As much as we wanted it to happen somehow we just never got around to it. Our phenomenal success in the church with two services at 9:30am and 11:00am has kept us busy. With 73 beds in nine locations at Exodus Homes plus a thrift store, our vocational training enterprises in Exodus Works which include moving, landscaping, and general labor of all kinds - we've had more on our plate than you can say grace over.God has been good to us and has answered our prayers. In 2021 while at a book signing for Ric Vandett's work called Hurdles, Rev. Susan Smith and I met the wonderful people at Redhawk Publishing with Catawba Valley Community College. After that night, we began planning how they could help us create and publish The Exodus Diaries with a goal to publish a new edition every year. We invited people whose stories need to be told and got commitments from them to participate in a ten week series of meetings in person and by Zoom with Robert Canipe to help us create and refine a manuscript. We also are very grateful for the help we received from Richard Eller and Patty Thompson of Red Hawk Publishing.This finished work is a collection of stories from 14 writers who have made the journey out of bondage from the Egypt of addiction and incarceration into the promised land of recovery which is filled with new possibilities, new beginnings, and a future full of hope. These are those who have come, tasted the fruits of recovery and found them to be good. Now they share the good news of recovery through the pages of this book, telling others that there is hope on the other side through the Exodus Movement. We give God all the glory - great things He has done.

    From the back of the bookSometimes we need space in our lives for quiet, for reflection, for getting our bearings again and for conversation that goes deeper than the weather and the price of gas. That quiet conversation is what Beverly Finney offers in her new book Cracks in the Dark.Inspired by lines in a song by the late Leonard Cohen, Beverly has assembled a collection of her poems to reflect on where we can find light in times of darkness. Light, she suggests, can be borrowed, revealed in reflection, sought after in a quest for deeper understanding, nestled in cherished memories.She encourages you to underline, highlight, scribble in the margins and write on the pages provided throughout the collection to record where you find light in your own dark times. And she invites you to share those with her if you'd like to continue the conversation. Advance praise for Cracks in the Dark...In the art world artists often say that one aspect of the process of making a painting is the joy of the "long look" they hope viewers will take as they linger in front of the piece.Beverly's work comes from taking a long look at day-to-day circumstances and describing them physically and emotionally. She incorporates mindfulness, the ability to observe the environment in a non-judgmental way and acknowledge that it is all you have at the moment. Her work evokes a visceral response and, often for me, a sense that I have experienced something similar. That response is one of hope, joy and the familiarity and universality of the human experience. -John Worm, The Counseling GroupAbout the Author"Writing at this stage in my life offers me a perspective shaped by decades of experience. And hopefully, the maturity to temper that perspective with heart."She grew up surrounded by her grandfather's farm and a large extended family in Catawba County, North Carolina. Her blue-collar parents made their livings in the shops and factories in that same county, dreaming of college for their kids.Beverly graduated from Mars Hill College, now University, set in the western part of her home state near Asheville, North Carolina. She double-majored in elementary education and English before completing her MA in English at Appalachian State University in Boone, North Carolina.In her twelve years with Caldwell Community College and Technical Institute in Hudson, North Carolina, she established their first developmental English program, then gravitated to administrative work to eventually become the institution's first full-time public information officer.That experience led to her 25 years with Blue Ridge Energy, a rural energy cooperative serving a five-county area in the Blue Ridge mountains and foothills. "Those co-op members, the deeply dedicated employees and the beauty of the area got in my blood. I left a good chunk of my heart there."Now that she's retired, Beverly's work is writing. Her first collection, Bearing Witness, was published in 2019 by Third Lung Press (now Redhawk Publications) and is available on Amazon. "It's my way of 'bearing witness' to life, to living and to what I think it means to be human. Cracks in the Dark continues that theme.

    Bailey, Bleecker, and Banjo lived with their family by the banks of Moss Creek. Bailey, the black and white sheepdog, was a wise and gentle soul who always seemed to be smiling. Bleecker, the shepherd, was happiest when she was busy working and learning. Banjo, the rescue, was the youngest and smallest of the three and the last to join the pack. Banjo loved to play and explore. The three spent endless hours romping in the winding creek, sitting around the campfire at night with their friends, and wandering the trails in their great backyard.
