Book excerpt: Logan Jean used to be inseparable from his best friend and teammate, Riley Sinclair. From stick ball to Little League to state championships, Logan and Riley were a team of two. That changed one fateful night near the end of high school, when Logan lost the best person in his life over a stupid mistake he never meant to make. Now adults, Logan must face Riley in what might be the turning point of his Minor League career. Riley is no doubt getting called up to the Majors, Logan hopes to get called up as well, and both are competing for this season’s MVP award. But if he can’t strike out the one batter that’s haunted him since high school, Logan may never get his big break. Riley Sinclair has spent the past seven years getting into their ex-best friend’s head to taunt and psych him out, trying to beat him on the baseball field, instead of trying to undo the damage they’d done to their relationship when they were younger. Tonight, after the biggest game of their Minor League careers, Riley might have one last chance to explain to Logan what really happened all those years ago, and maybe fix what’s been broken. Does Logan have what it takes to strike out his biggest rival in the league? Can Riley muster up the nerve to finally say to Logan what they’ve wanted to all this time? Or will the two of them remain strangers, standing sixty-feet apart, forever?

Book excerpt: This quirky cultural criticism extols the value of relaxing, retreating, and watching the world whiz by from a specific vantage point: the American porch. While taking life a little slower offers such medical rewards as lowering blood pressure and regulating serotonin levels, porching is also presented as a lifestyle that draws from past days of old-fashioned hospitality and neighbourly banter. The ironic and tongue-in-cheek tone provides an eccentric and inspirational perspective on contemporary life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When their Ukrainian grandmother is lost on a trans-Atlantic Flight, two sisters are swept into a quest across eastern Europe to find the woman who had always told more tales than truths. From Poland to Slovakia to Hungary and beyond, Larissa and Ira navigate the steps of Ukrainian folk dance, the cliff-side paths of Slovak Paradise National Park, and the stark realities of war, folktales, and feminism, all for the sake of chasing who they're starting to believe is a true Baba Yaga. Understanding their family's roots has never been more clear. The setting's mythic properties drift like ghosts in the humid air, hinting of the folktales the sisters whisper like codes of bravery. The nesting dolls they discover reveal how each woman becomes stronger when tucked one, within another, within another-forgetting lies and truths to seize upon history, love, and the familial traditions that have shaped them into who they are together. Author and professional editor Kris Spisak has been spotlighted in Writer's Digest and The Huffington Post for her work to helping other writers. Her previous non-fiction books include Get a Grip on Your Grammar: 250 Writing and Editing Reminders for the Curious or Confused, The Novel Editing Workbook, and The Family Story Workbook. Spisak's background and her own family experience in the Ukrainian diaspora add weight to her fiction debut.

Book excerpt: What if the price of immortality was too high? What if you had no choice? Portland-based James Kimble is the definition of "pretty normal" – working at a big box store, recovering from a recent divorce and trying to enjoy his modest success as a novelist. But after a small-town book signing in Sandy, Oregon, he is randomly pulled into the bizarre world of a woman who called herself Grace. While interviewing this remarkably long-lived woman, he finds he must confront his own personal pain threshold as well as the skeletons in his closet. Held hostage in a cabin in the woods, Kimble's baseline of existence is forcibly redefined and he discovers how hard it is to look in the mirror and how easy it is to compromise when your own life is on the line. A dramatic first-person psychological thriller, Interviewing Immortality weaves a tale of intrigue, suspense, and self-confrontation. The sequel, Finding Immortality, is also available now.

Book excerpt: A life of fear and anger is not a life worth living were the words that manifested for him. Tired of the constant battle deep within he gave up, no longer willing to tolerate a life of anger and self-destruction. T.E. was faced with a self imposed ultimatum to either end the struggling and suffering by leaving the physical world behind or change the way he viewed the world and the people in it. Prepare yourself for an intimate and revealing glimpse into a personal hell of struggle and self-hatred to see it miraculously transform into a world of peace and acceptance. Borrowed Eyes and Feet chronicles what the author refers to as his year of enlightenment. For decades he tolerated life behind a veil of anger and retaliation which worked for him, but regrettably left a trail of hurt and regret. He summoned the courage to rise-up against his inner rage, self-doubt and self-destruction to find another way toward love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a story of how a small group of people made a transformation from Jew to Jewish American to American Jews. It is not unlike the transformation and Americanization of other peoples. How it differs is from the very fact that a religion, a set of beliefs transformed into a nationality. It is about a period of time in one woman's life, my mother who was a blend of Europe and America. She was a mixture of ethnicity, culture, religion and Americanized traditions; a potpourri of ideas and actions unlike most and yet common to us all. This is also my story as well as hers. It is about our lives and times of changes. It is about the games we played, the education we received, the changes in religious practices, the friends we had, and the environments in which we lived. My mother possessed virtues that were stark realities of everyday life. It was that there was always room at her table and there never was a shortage of food. She was a powerful loving matriarch who touched the lives of a great many people with a "touch" of this (knowledge), and a "touch" of that, (love).

Book excerpt: This dramatic memoir recounts one woman's experience with skeletal tuberculosis, which she contracted at the age of five in the 1930s. It recounts her next nine years living in tuberculosis sanatoriums where she underwent many treatments for the disease and was finally released when she was 14. Despite her subsequent disablement, she went on to marry and have three children, work as a micro-biologist, perform as a comedienne, and serve as an advocate for minority groups. By turns deeply affecting and hilarious, this memoir provides a glimpse into a still-dangerous disease and is a testament to the power of human perseverance and hope.

Book excerpt: Can one family not only survive the wrenching devastation of the Holocaust, but persevere and thrive? Judit Gondos, known as Jutka, was an ordinary little girl in Budapest, Hungary, when her life was gradually destroyed, beginning with the institutionalization of antisemitism in Hungary. Like all Jews then in Europe, she and her family had endured years of humiliation accompanying the ratcheting up of anti-Jewish sentiments and restrictions on their livelihoods and freedoms. But when the Nazis occupied Hungary in 1944, their lives, and the lives of their family, friends, and the entire community, were in peril. In Jutka, we follow the lives of the Gondos-Havas family, first in Hungary as merchants, educators, physicians, and professionals, then through their harrowing experiences during the Holocaust. We’re shown inside the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp where young Jutka and her parents were incarcerated. And we then see the challenges of building a new life after war’s end as Jutka becomes Judy Gondos Jacobs: an American citizen, college graduate, wife, mother, business professional, PhD, grandmother, great-grandmother, and one of a diminishing number of voices able and willing to bear witness to the Holocaust in hopes that humanity is not again overcome by evil. Judy Gondos Jacobs, PhD, is a retired pathology practice business manager who has spent decades sharing her account of the Holocaust. In recognition of her efforts, the University of Missouri–Kansas City bestowed her with the Defying the Odds Award in 2016. Judy lives in Overland Park, Kansas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreword by Mandy Arioto, President of MOPS International Teresa Swanstrom Anderson is living the life she thought she never wanted. With an art history degree and dreams of living in Europe as a curator, Teresa had big plans for herself. She had no desire to have kids -- didn't even like them -- but after a decision to lay her exciting plans at the feet of Christ, God began changing her heart little by little. While dating the man who eventually became her husband, the two felt called to adopt from Africa. Now, Teresa's house is bursting at the seams with the loves of her life -- her husband, Ben, and their six children, four of whom were born in Ethiopia. She believes in celebrating the everyday and instilling the love of God and others in her children's hearts. She views her life as a series of redirected dreams, stumbling, falling, getting up, and wondering if she is investing her time where it matters most. Through it all, Teresa grasps joy tightly amid the craziness of everyday life. Go from dreaming about your life to living it fully with God in control. Pick up this book, grab a notebook, curl up on the couch, and open your heart to the potential of allowing your life to become beautifully interrupted. Includes reflection questions and Bible study prompts. Have you gotten so caught up in life and your well-intentioned plans that you may have accidentally planned God right out of it all? Teresa Swanstrom Anderson did just that. Her carefully laid out life changed course when she whispered to God, "Send me. Use me." Be inspired as you read Beautifully Interrupted and learn the importance of giving your plans back to God and allow Him to expand the borders of your life and heart. This book offers strategies and encouragement for living through the in-between times of waiting, as well as facing trials with grace and active faith. Become equipped to brave the storms and embrace the life-changing power of seeking God's plan first and sacrificing time and set plans in favor of something far greater.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We can flourish in every category of our lives based on the simple understanding of our capacity versus our ability, as we exert every effort to become the champions God designed us to be. Stimulating life stories, in-depth research, and other examples from a biblical standpoint will illuminate our minds to the true meaning of these two words, and we'll clearly see why they're not identical. There is a fine line between the two. What grasped my curiosity is that there is a fine "line," and I wanted to see clearly what that is. I didn't want to guess and introduce my own opinions but relied on the summations of grammarians and other scientific conclusions. We can also see that throughout this book, God's perspectives give glaring insight into these definitions, which to some may seem radical. We see how he makes it crystal clear why we need to consider the differences between the two. So we can know that with both our capacities and our abilities, we can succeed when we venture out with the energy of our convictions. A prominently known and greatly beloved teacher once revealed the truth that if certain similar words all meant the same thing, then grammar is devoid as a source of authority

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite adversity, living a wonderful life is the ultimate goal and can be achieved by anyone determined to do so. You can be stagnant or move forward to greatness. In Skinny Girl Chronicles, author Sherry Hopper-Wall shares some of her major life events. Th ese include the highs and lows and the fear she developed at an early age, a fear that almost deterred her from creating a better life than her early years in Virginia. Her story reveals personal feelings and details about her coming of age as a young, black girl in a small, southern town; a strained mother-daughter relationship; a failed first marriage; and a renewed faith in love. She also highlights the fact she’s a highly sensitive person and how being so has played a major role in how she perceives the world around her, as well as how she responds to it. An intrinsically happy person, Hopper-Wall demonstrates resiliency and determination in moving forward from any encounter that doesn’t bring about positivity. When she became ill with Grave’s Disease, unlearning unhealthy habits became her primary focus to return to the full happiness she once knew. Skinny Girl Chronicles shares not only the good, but also the trials and uncertainties, which Hopper-Wall conquered with determination.
