Putnik on the Bridge recounts Deb Grant's travels across oceans and continents for six weeks on a cargo ship with a salty captain and crew. Told as a memoir, and written like a sitcom, Grant weaves in moments of tension and humor that engrosse the reader in the cast of characters and life lessons about grief, gratitude, and belonging she learns along the way. This is a page-turner worthy of many "reruns."

Beacon Hunters is a collection of short essays, stories, and poetry by three friends and pastoral colleagues. Grant, Hoelscher and Meier collaborated during the pandemic to hunt for sources of guiding lights to truth & hope. Each piece is offered as field notes for those on their own journey of faith. Sometimes we need help to see the truth that shines in our daily lives. Each story is presented not as a prescriptive solution, but as a way to spark old memories and new insights. The book may serve as a prompt for discussion among friends and small groups. Each reader is invited to become a beacon hunter in their own experience.

"This is not your grandmother's pastor's poetry. STORM is as bold as the title implies, offering perspectives and styles of poetry as varied as are the disasters that visit every person. Gritty and tender, this intensely visual volume is for those courageous souls who walk alongside others through the disorienting landscapes and heartscapes that accompany every storm."--The Rev. Stacy Stringer, Director of Hurricane Recovery, Episcopal Diocese of Texas Deb Grant's collection of poetry is a genuine first-hand experience of someone who is not only a disaster survivor, but someone who stands in the gap between devastation and survival for those impacted. Her realistic and sometimes raw interpretation of the disaster experience has the ability to bring you to the "place" where survivors are, through words that can engage your senses and create sights, sounds, and even the smells of what that experience brings. This collection will be a lesson for those wanting to help, a kindred space for those who do the work, and a resource for those still healing to know they are not alone. --Jessica Vermilyea, Executive Director, Disaster Response, Upbring"Amazingly true and real. Pastor Deb Grant has captured every situation and emotion that exists surrounding a hurricane disaster. From the definition of muck to sharing an altar in a sister church. From looters to becoming a weather geek to naming the deceased. Pastor Grant has experienced everything she has written and presented it in her unique style of writing."--Mike Anderson, National Weather Service, 29 Year Veteran of Flood Forecasting, Survivor of Hurricane Camille
