In a society banned together by fear lies Bliss Creek, the perfect example of what can be accomplished if everyone simply complies with the social contract, the details of which are dictated by people they cannot see, who were elected by votes they did not cast, and all the questions these issues raise remain unasked. The fear stems from attacks that are constant and always on the outside of the walls, where the zoneless meet their fate for all to see on the never-ending news broadcasts. The area protected by Branch's army, called the Zones, is an ever-changing expanse depending on the cooperation provided by the people within. Bliss Creek is in the center of Zone 8, claimed to be the safest of all the Zones, or, perhaps, the most cooperative. Iz is a 17-year-old girl who wakes up in a hospital bed just outside of Bliss Creek, completely void of any memories. Making her way home and into her life, she has a constant wariness following her. In her home, there is no evidence of her having ever lived there, no pictures, no notes, no nick knacks. While her parents dote on her, and appear to love her, she continues to be haunted by the scraps of hidden clues she finds in her house, and in the dark recesses of her mind, indicating that things are not as they seem. These niggling little remnants of the past coupled with the strangeness of life in Bliss Creek make it difficult for Iz to accept the status quo.The choice to pursue a seemingly fruitless search into who she once was, where she came from, and why life in this sleepy little zone appears so inauthentic, or to simply continue in the safe, quiet existence she currently leads, is a constant internal battle for Iz. Will she decide to pursue the truth as to who she really is, or quietly live out her days as the person they all want her to be?This is one of my new favorites. I read it in one day! It reminds me of The Hunger Games series. Bliss Creek is set in a dystopian period, and the world is divided into zones. Most people live peacefully in zones with a group of individual rebels fighting with the zones. The story is a mystery of what happened to Iz wrapped into her unfolding love story. AL Willingham writes so descriptively she makes me feel like I am Iz, and gives me get a visual picture of the setting. I love Iz and I am very protective of her. I want to I can't wait to see the rest of the books. AL please publish more!!! Debi Burrows This book hooked me right away. A great dystopian story which kept me rooting for Iz to figure what had happened to her so I could know too. Looking forward to the next one.Grayson WeithmanThe author really has a way of painting a picture. I felt like I knew and could relate to Iz, the main character, from the first page. I can't wait to see what comes next! Definitely recommend!!! Melissa DuffyThis book grasped my attention from the first page to the last page. Enjoyed the storyline. Looking forward to book 2.

My Redcoat Ancestor . . . . . Growing up in a large family during the Great Depression, little did I realise the wealth of relatives who had gone before. Family records had be en kept for hundreds of years - all the way back to William the Conqueror in 1066. Among them, I di scovered one who had made quite a name for himself. Colonel Charles Mawhood wa s a British Redcoat who had fought in the American Revolution War. In particular he had come face to face with George Washington at the Battle of Princeton, among other battles. Was hington even spoke of Colonel Mawhood's bravery before Congress - his words also in the Library of Congress. History is written by the victors and this story will show another interesting view point. Colonel Charles and the author are related through grandparents seven generations back. (M y Maiden name is the same). . . . . . and other short stories. The 'other short stories' are based on my almost-nine de cades of life's experiences through war and peace, tragedies and triumphs, upheavals and travels. They run the spectrum of war, whimsy, fact and fiction, fears, failures and fun - e specially humility and humor. I hope the reader will enjoy them as much as I have enjoyed writing them.

From the dark ages, the treatment of those mentally ill has progressed from chaining to a wall those afflicted with mental disturbance who never saw the light of day. However, in US emergency rooms, our young people on the brink of despair are held hostage for psychiatric care. We have been bound to the antiquated biomedical model of mental health care. It is fortunate that we, as a society, are experiencing a mental health crisis of enormous proportions currently only in the sense that we are beginning to hear a wake-up call as we witness a total breakdown of our mental healthcare system regarding the mental stability of our youth and other groups of everyday people.Healthcare professionals and societies are beginning to understand that mental health is integral to overall health and is more than the absence of symptoms of psychological distress. The mastery important to us all includes the acquisition of the capacity to reflect, to relate on a deep level with others emotionally, and to empathize in the face of change or stressful situations. Resilient young people who possess these qualities and the ability to wrestle through adversity when they have the skillsets to do so, lead more successful lives when they know how to make lemonade out of lemons.Dr. Christine Silverstein leaves no stone unturned in her thoroughly researched book, Wrestling Through Adversity.

Anbar, MD, Author of Changing Children's Lives with Hypnosis: A Journey to the Center.

I experienced some pretty painful times in my 40 years. Feelings of low self-esteem, uncertainty, and self-doubt took root very early on. I've struggled through every phase of my life: as a chubby child with self-esteem issues, as a teen mom trying to navigate college at an institution I didn't feel a part of, a young woman wasting time with men that reflected the poor image I had of myself, and as an adult grappling with the imbalance of power and privilege in my community and watching it unfold in every aspect of my life.I often found myself walking between two very different worlds. I existed in a space between the past and the present, and poverty and privilege. As I aged, the duality that I existed in grew larger and more complex. Some of those spaces I existed in were quite painful and very emotional for me. Some of the most painful moments of my life were prime opportunities for personal growth. I learned to make sense of the two worlds I existed in and used that skill to help connect, build, and manifest community, comradery, and a sense of purpose.

Do you want readers? That's why you need an author platform. Most new authors assume that if they write it, readers will purchase. Nothing could be further from the truth. Platform building starts early, even before the book writing begins. The most overlooked piece of the writing/publishing book journey is author platform building. Entrepreneurs get excited about their ideas and start writing with no thoughts about who will buy their book. An author platform requires that you identify your niche audience, brand, and messaging, and then test on your potential audience. This is a trial-and- error process that requires you to understand the inner workings of building content, social media, email, and media, as well as how they all fit together for a successful book launch.A platform build is not an overnight, instant gratification proposition, but it is a skill that you can learn. This step-by-step guide will help you do just that.

Grail Quests often begin with what seems like normal travel adventures, but then suddenly turn into divine synchronistic events that makes one feel as though they're being guided by the Universe. I was to find out, two years later, that many local people knew about this cave. Teenagers even partied in it, as we could see from their graffiti, so what was the big secret? The cave's location was obviously not a secret, but apparently no one understood the significance of that specific cross. What the cave was carved out for turned out to be the secret, helping me to later understand why the Templars dug it out in the middle of nowhere. I returned that evening to our pousada a different person. Something had fundamentally changed within me. I felt that somehow, this discovery was part of my destiny. The Universe had unmistakably directed me to this cave. "Did the Knights Templar reach Brazil? This is the enigmatic question boldly asked and beautifully answered in this fascinating quest of discovery that results in firm evidence that, yes, they did indeed reach the Americas long before Columbus. The author brings in her writing an exciting sense of mystery and imagination tempered beautifully by her academic background. An essential addition to the ancient mysteries bookshelf."Andrew Collins, science and history writer and author of The First Female Pharaoh and Göbekli Tepe: Genesis of the Gods.

Millions of women suffer daily under the shame and guilt from their secrets, often nasty thoughts they have about others, the hidden dislike they have towards themselves, or actions they have taken like the abortion, the debt, or the affair. These secrets deliver a 1-2-3 punch to our collective female gut: the secret action (what "terrible thing you did"), the story you built around that action that has now become a negative belief about who you are (critical narrative), and the big secret (the why) that drove you to take that action in the first place. Both big and small, these insidious secrets gather momentum and create false narratives that turn into lies we women believe about ourselves and even cause us to become physically, emotionally, and spiritually sick. Candid, proactive and humorous, Author Gretchen Hydo shares her brilliant 10-Stage, Secret-Breaking System to pull back the curtain, champion women to stop hiding behind their big secrets, step out of shame and come into the light.

Over the years, I have had many times when I thought that I was drinking too much or that I should really take a break from drinking. I tried several times to stop drinking. I have even gone for a couple weeks or months without drinking (although, even during those times of "not drinking," I would sneak in a glass of wine here and there and feel super proud of myself that I had such restraint). But sure enough, while on my self-imposed drinking hiatus, I'd think, "Why am I being so restrictive? I don't need to be so all-or-nothing about alcohol. I can have a glass of wine with dinner." Or I'd rationalize my drinking with, "In Europe they have a glass of wine with lunch and dinner. If I were in Europe I wouldn't even be second guessing how much wine I drink. Our views on alcohol are so uptight in North American."So I'd start drinking again.¿"Carrie is one of the most enlighten, compassionate people I have ever met. Carrie helped me through some dark times and I am forever thankful to her. She sees behind the mask, behind the pain and speaks and listens to our true selves. She helped lay the foundation for the man I am today." Paul F"When I met Carrie, I was lost, broken and close to giving up. With her general and personalized approach Carrie helped me find myself again, love myself again and gift me with tools, information and guidance that continues to help me remain sober and live my life being the best person I can be. I am forever grateful." Kelly H"Compassionate, grounded, and funny, Carrie is truly gifted at making others feel seen and heard. Carrie was a bright light during an otherwise dark time in my life. I will be forever grateful for your compassion and guidance." Caitlin A"In a deeply supportive and personal way, Carrie guides you through a 30-day journey exploring your relationship with alcohol; shedding light on how alcohol may be affecting your health and relationships. If you have ever wondered, "Am I drinking too much?" - the 30- Day Reset is for you". Janet S
