A Silent Cry
0$5.99 – $11.99It’s easy for anyone to feel isolated and alone, especially when we feel confused or embarrassed by the experiences we have. Sometimes those we should trust most are the ones who do us harm – and sometimes those we turn to for help surprise us by turning away. When this happens, we learn to distrust others and even ourselves.
These are the heart-wrenching realities facing a young woman named Clair in the pages of A Silent Cry. Enduring sexual abuse at a young age, as well as other personal abuses throughout her life, Clair must struggle with the difficult realization that her family is not a source of safety and security for her. These traumas teach her to feel different, victimized, and defenseless, even into her adult years, and the result is severe depression. Afraid to trust anyone yet afraid of turning them away, Clair eventually reaches out to the counsel of a caring aunt, who tries to show her an alternative to her lonely life through faith in God and finding peace within herself.
The story of Clair’s strong will to move forward, and her aunt’s sincere words and guidance, offers hope for those experiencing similar personal dilemmas, as well as inspiration to those who can reach out to help a loved one through unimaginable difficulties in life.

0$15.99The Music That Makes Me Dance is a collection of poems that will encourage readers to listen to their inner music, the music of the heart.

The poem, “African Dancing,” inspired by the poet’s lived experience, will find in you a memory that will make you twirl and spin like a child’s old-fashioned spinning top. Whatever you hear or feel, standing still while your heart accompanies you in song will not be an option. The Music That Makes Me Dance will leave you moved and moving.
Tattered Edges
0$3.99 – $11.99As early as six, I began to emulate the essance of a boy trying to mimick my brother standing to pee; failing miserably. At twelve, an older neighborhood boy tried to rape me; all I knew, at this point, was no man would ever control me. Continuing in my tom-boy ways, my mother was appalled. The year that followed, puberty struck, remaining to be the most tragic day of my life. However, my athletic ability was revealed that summer during a softball game when I heard, “You should be playing on the other field with the boys!” My naked reflection in the mirror became problematic. My male alter-ego emerged. I bound my chest, changed my name, and headed to Southern California. I didn’t hate life or who I was, only what I was. This was just the begining, so hold on tight.
WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WERE MADE A GOD FOR A DAY?…Understanding The Essence and Mystery of Love
0$4.99 – $19.99WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WERE MADE A GOD FOR A DAY, is a book that depicts the essence and power of God’s love by blending fictional characters into Biblical truth. It points out what the fundamental role of the church in modem society should be. In other words, instead of condemning others by being judgmental in our self-righteousness, we can just demonstrate the love of God from our hearts, and do the most good to our fellow human beings.
This book unequivocally reveals the common errors in today’s church and how “the body of Christ” (the Church) has traded its basic responsibility for materialism, money, and fame; thus, leaving the members languishing in the sea of doubt, bemusement, manipulation, lies, insecurity, and deception. As a result, the faithful are gradually turning away from the truth to find solace outside of the church, seeking answers in man’s philosophies and other religions.
WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WERE MADE A GOD FOR A DAY, brings us back to the basics and teaches the true meaning of the Christian faith as it relates to the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ (Yehoshua), especially as it is written in Matthew 25: 31-46 respectively.
