    Beautiful woman holding a lighted Wizards Wand


Anica Storm & The Wand of Time

(The Anica Storm Trilogy Book 1)


Anica Storm expected her European vacation to be unforgettable... She didn’t expect it to rewrite reality. After a chance encounter awakens powers no human was ever meant to possess, Anica is pulled into Airrah... a hidden world where realms collide, magic and science coexist, and ancient creatures walk openly among those who know how to see them. But Airrah is not the escape it first appears to be. Someone is hunting ancient relics once thought lost to history... godlike objects powerful enough to tear time and space apart. And now Anica has become part of the hunt. Thrown into dangerous worlds, uneasy alliances, impossible choices, and secrets no one wants uncovered, Anica must learn the truth about her growing powers before the wrong hands claim the most dangerous relic of all: The Wand of Time. Because the Wand of Time doesn’t rewind mistakes. It overwrites them. Entire timelines can vanish. Lives can be erased. And some victories come at a heartbreaking cost. With enemies closing in and reality itself beginning to fracture, Anica must decide how far she’s willing to go to stop what’s coming... before the future itself is erased. Nothing—and no one—is truly safe. Anica Storm & The Wand of Time is a fast-paced cinematic dark fantasy filled with portals, dragons, wizards, vampires, dark fae, ghosts, werewolves, magical universities, dangerous secrets, found family, dark humor, romantic tension, emotional fallout, and high-stakes consequences that continue to escalate throughout the trilogy. Perfect for readers who love immersive fantasy adventures with unforgettable characters, strange worlds, emotional intensity, and twists that hit when you least expect them.

Tech Equity: Freedom Through Enabling Technology:

   Arch of Beautiful Arch on Black Background


Tech Equity: Freedom Through Enabling Technology:

A Dream Officer's Playbook for Tech Equity in Disability and Aging Services

by Precious "Preciosa" Myers-Brown

What does freedom actually look like for someone who has been told what they cannot do their whole life?

That question lives at the heart of Tech Equity: Freedom Through Enabling Technology by Precious "Preciosa" Myers-Brown. It is a book about what becomes possible when a whole community -- providers, families, Direct Support Professionals, policymakers, and the people being served -- decides that the way things have always been done is not good enough anymore.

The care system we are working inside was built in the 80s, way before we had the tools we have today. Imagine finding a pager from that era and thinking it still works -- then spending years looking for the payphone you need to go with it. We honor what was built with what we had. And now it is time for all of us to move forward together.

This is not a book about technology replacing people. It is about technology giving people back their time, their dignity, and their choices -- and giving the communities around them the tools to actually support that. DSPs who are burned out. Families who are exhausted. People with disabilities who deserve more than a system running on assumptions from 40 years ago. The blueprint is here. The community that changes this already exists. This book is for all of you.

The Fall of Two Houses

   Castle in front a firey sun


The Fall of Two Houses


Disclaimer: reading may require spiritual cleansing and other purification rituals. What would you sacrifice to keep your kingdom alive? In the Land of Dreams, light means life, tradition is law, and power is bought with blood. As Lord Crushma faces his own slow death, he races to secure his legacy before enemies close in and darkness swallows the Westlands. His solution is a political marriage, but his only heir is unfit to rule, his allies are corrupt, and every choice threatens to damn the realm he's trying to save. His most dangerous option is an ambitious Count, brilliant at starting conflicts and catastrophic at ending them. To refuse her may doom the Westlands. To accept her may ensure its destruction. The alternative is a young girl not nearly old enough to be courted, and Crushma must choose between the lesser of two evils.

Every Person Has a Story to Tell

 Man and Dog sitting on bench watching Sun


Every Person Has a Story to Tell

By Dr. Walter R. Hoge



What if a life is not one straight road, but a thousand remembered paths crossing faith, grief, science, ancestry, and wonder?

Every Person Has a Story to Tell opens like a memoir, but it quickly expands into something larger and stranger: a life archive shaped by memory’s unreliability, family legend, spiritual longing, professional reinvention, and the haunting possibility that the most important places we visit may not belong entirely to this world. The book moves through ancestors, frontier histories, veterinary practice, personal losses, philosophical reflections, and a mystical valley that lingers in the author’s soul like an unfinished calling.

At its heart, the book gathers family history, memoir, faith, and reflection into a deeply personal meditation on memory, purpose, and the experiences that shape a life.

Its atmosphere shifts between grounded recollection and visionary experience. One moment, the book is contemplating squirrels, elephants, and the fragile mechanics of human memory; the next, it is standing at the edge of a glowing valley in what feels like a parallel universe, where fear gives way to peace and purpose. That tension gives the book its pulse: the earthly and the eternal, the documented and the imagined, the ordinary life and the life that seems to whisper from just beyond it.

What makes this book stand out is its refusal to separate disciplines that are usually kept apart. Science and religion, memory and myth, family history and personal testimony all occupy the same terrain. The central question is not simply what happened, but what a person does with what happened: how experience becomes meaning, how grief becomes redirection, and how a life can be measured not only by achievement, but by whether it remains open to wonder, service, and a second chance.

Some stories are told to preserve the past; others are told to light the way back to the self.

Best of Friends Trilogy

 Silhouette of 5 Friends on Cover





Book 1: Best of Friends: What happens when a family death wreaks havoc among siblings? What would you do if the ‘peace-maker’ of the family suddenly loses control? If the opportunity arose, would you agree to simply ‘burn the will,’ sell the estate and split the proceeds? What would be your response when calling the cops and being told: “We’re not coming out, unless there are bullets flying and bodies to count?” Elizabeth Caliente is faced with such propositions in Sherry Brantley’s award-winning ‘Best of Friends’ trilogy. Best of Friends has won two national awards for ‘Best Fiction of the Year!’
Book 2: Before Best of Friends: In this much-anticipated prequel to the ‘Best of Friends,’ trilogy, readers discover how the Fabulous Five group were formed in their youth, and are introduced to the unfolding of the powerful secrets binding the group together. Secrets only this private group were privileged to know. Join this tight-knit group as you uncover the mystery of the ‘Secret of the Blanket.’ Included is an excerpt from the books’ final work of the trilogy, ‘Still Best of Friends.’
Book 3: Still Best of Friends: The explosive conclusion of the ‘Best of Friends’ trilogy! The Fabulous Five were bound together by secrets they’d all swore to carry to their graves. But with the ‘Dastardly Duke Discovery’ exposing the ‘Secret of the Blanket,’ will the Fabulous Five find themselves desperately being consumed in a modern-day media frenzy that is threatening to consume them? Will this group of friends be able to survive the onslaught of the public revelation of their past deeds? Or will they crumble under the weight of their unexpected circumstances? Travel with the Fabulous Five: Elizabeth Caliente’, Kim Worthy, Kiona Stone, Angela Jackson-(A.J.) and Quineeta Davis as once again, they attempt to weather the storms of adversity that threaten to decimate their bond, their friendship, their past! Will the ‘Dastardly Duke Discovery’ prove to be the final nail in the coffin? Or will vow to continue to ‘deny ‘til they die,’ their involvement in the mystery they’re shrouded in?
Meet the dynamic members of the Fabulous Five as this explosive trilogy takes readers on a whirlwind excursion among five friends. Though often humorous, the ride is filled with lessons on friendship, family dynamics and strong relationships. You’ll love connecting and bonding with the members of the Fabulous Five, as they deal individually and collectively with the drama that surrounds them!
