Tick Tock: No Time to Lose
This spellbinding novel reveals a stunning, provocative account of an emergency life- saving liver transplant that leaves the author in a five week coma. The author uses exerpts from her childhood, teen, and adult experiences to illustrate how they prepare her to withstand profuse bleeding, a stroke, and the ability to come out of her lenghty sleep. The testimony is sprinkled with uplifting humor and helps the reader to understand how perseverance, divine intervention, and timeless optimism helps one to overcome catastrophic experiences. One year after her traumatic experience, she returns to her professiona as a public school administrator, strong and prepared to continue her phenomenal reputation as a no non-sense high school leader. The novel is a perfect literary example of man vs. the universe. The author now shares her experience in multiple venues to support liver and organ transplants across the nation.

Thwarted at every turn and stalked by monsters in the streets, her life feels like it's falling apart. But Saffron isn't going to give up hope. She's sworn revenge on the Director and she can't forget about Jasper and the way he makes her feel. And when some familiar faces come knocking at her door, she might just have found the answers she's been looking for.

Reconceptualizing the Literacies in Adolescents' Lives
Reconceptualizing the Literacies in Adolescents' Lives, Second Edition focuses on exploring the impact of young people's identity-making practices in mediating their perceptions of themselves as readers and writers in an era of externally mandated reforms.
