Gracie's Secret
Meet Grace. At nine years old she has a big secret. Grace knows first-hand that life can be difficult. Her parents aren't very happy. Their arguing is giving her a stomach ache. She spends a lot of time alone, worrying. Are her parents problems her fault? Had she done something wrong? Grace pretends everything is fine, but it's not. She feels helpless and has learned that making things up is easier than telling the truth. One big question haunts her every day. Will her family ever be happy again? This book is perfect for a child with a difficult home life. Divorce, addiction, mental health issues and more can cause children to feel alone, anxious and afraid. Gracie's Secret addresses this by showing kids they aren't alone, and that they can feel better. With a workbook section for kids to understand their own issues and a message that talking to a safe person will help, Gracie's story can help kids cope.

Cracking Open
The twisted roller coaster ride called "opening up psychically" started for me the day my Grandmother died. That one pivotal moment changed me from a materialistic, business-driven agnostic to someone who doubted reality itself. I began to wonder if the brain I had relied on for so many years had finally set itself out to pasture.Talking to the dead isn't a joy ride. It isn't a theme park pass to chat with Elvis whenever you want, or a ticket to discover the long lost secrets of Atlantis. It's a big responsibility, and a task I now hold dear to my heart.This book is about what happens when one stumbles onto the spiritual path. I present this book to you, raw, uncensored, and in detail-all the ups and downs of what it is really like to spend your days among the dead. You will find the hours of frustration and the moments of debilitating fear are also met with times of pure bliss when life unfolds to demonstrate the beauty of human potential.This book is not some fictional tale "based on a true story." This is my life, and I share it with you.
