My Evil Twin and I
Since mankind has existed, he has had an evil twin. Today, evil twins call themselves Othro-Americans and seek the same rights as their counterparts, or good twins. My Evil Twin and I is the story of four Othro friends-Drake, Steve, Mickey and Quincy-who are unwillingly thrust into a watershed period for Othro rights. As New Jersey and the rest of the country marches toward the 2006 midterm congressional elections, a young Republican congressman drafts legislation that could force them to move out of the state, when all the 20-somethings want to do is hang out at their local chain restaurant and drink. Along the way, Drake's new girlfriend attempts to turn him into an activist hero, Steve illegally adopts an Othro child from China, and Mickey and Quincy try to beat their latest assault rap with help from the ACLU, all while simultaneously dealing with the problems brought on by their good twins.
Breaking the Chains
Raised in a Catholic family in the Pacific Northwest, author Robert Willis learned to obey two judges: his father, a county superior court judge, and God. He joined the Jesuits, hoping to please both. The 1960s revolution tested his unthinking obedience to authorities-paternal, religious, and political-as the immorality of the Vietnam War troubled his conscience and the Second Vatican Council challenged his position in the modern world. When his efforts to stop the war led him to Vietnam, he knew he had to break the chains that bound him to the past. Willis's path took him to the nascent human potential movement in California. Experiencing its healing power, he joined Carl Rogers and colleagues at the Center for Studies of the Person in La Jolla while simultaneously pursuing a doctorate in psychology at San Diego's United States International University. In his teaching and practice of psychotherapy, Willis emphasized the crucial importance of the healing relationship. In its depths, he felt the presence of the Spirit of God. In his personal life, together with a woman who touches his soul, he meets the God of love. The chains, at last, lie broken.
