A Year and a Day
Fifteen-year-old Alice dreams of her first kiss, has sleepovers, auditions for Our Town, and tries to pass high school biology. It's 1975, and at first look, her life would seem to be normal and unexceptional. But in the world that Leslie Pietrzyk paints, every moment she chronicles is revealed through the kaleidoscope of loss, stained by the fact that Alice's mother, without warning, note, or apology, deliberately parks her car on the railroad tracks, in the path of an oncoming train. In the emotional year that follows, Alice and her older brother find themselves in the care of their great aunt, forced to cope and move forward. Lonely and confused, Alice absorbs herself in her mother Annette's familiar rituals, trying to recapture their connection -- only to be stunned by the sound of her mother's voice speaking to her, engaging Alice in "conversations" and offering some insight into the life that she had led, beyond her role as Alice's mother.

Tears of Deception
Tears of Deception is based on a true story. It demonstrates the power of forgiveness and the power of love over vengeance and hate. It is a love story which contains a religious awakening that would allow one to see the mercy of God. Pachouco in his love life deceptions quickly recognized the power of prayers because his mother, Faye Esther was a praying woman. Pachouco understood that God can and will pardon anyone who confesses and repents of his or her sins. He also understood Gods capability of looking beyond the sinner mans fault and sees his needs. Again, this is the power of love, confession and forgiveness. Through it all, Pachouco learned a valuable lesson, never said never because God is in control. Written by Patrick Pierre, Senior Pastor of Union Baptist Church United Ministry, in Society Hill, South Carolina. To God be the glory.
