Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "My Legacy: A Book about You" is a just that, a book about YOU. This is a guided memoir that was created for people who aren't going to live forever. It's a 50-page book with blanks you fill in, questions you answer and information you leave for your loved ones. This book is a way for your legacy to live on long after you are gone. When a loved one passes away, family members often search for closure. They want to hear from their loved one ONE LAST TIME. They want to know what their thoughts and feelings were, what their last wishes were and they want answers to questions they never got a chance to ask. Give the gift of your legacy, your words and your wishes to your family. Give yourself peace of mind and provide your family with closure. Leave something behind more important than just your material things. This book was designed for anyone, of just about any age, to fill out. It allows grieving family members, who are left behind after your passing, to stay close to and connected to you based on the words of your legacy. It also provides them with answers to questions they might have and maybe most importantly, your hand-written words to cherish. Sometimes it is difficult to have a discussion with loved ones about death and dying, about the past and the future. My hope is that this book will help.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in 1927 to daringly enterprising parents in the Deep South, Coretta Scott had always felt called to a special purpose. While enrolled as one of the first black scholarship students recruited to Antioch College, she became politically and socially active and committed to the peace movement. As a graduate student at the New England Conservatory of Music, determined to pursue her own career as a concert singer, she met Martin Luther King Jr., a Baptist minister insistent that his wife stay home with the children. But in love and devoted to shared Christian beliefs as well as shared racial and economic justice goals, she married Dr. King, and events promptly thrust her into a maelstrom of history throughout which she was a strategic partner, a standard bearer, and so much more. As a widow and single mother of four, she worked tirelessly to found and develop The King Center as a citadel for world peace, lobbied for fifteen years for the US national holiday in honor of her husband, championed for women's, workers' and gay rights and was a powerful international voice for nonviolence, freedom and human dignity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever walked into a hotel room and wondered who stayed there through the years and what took place before you entered? In her debut short story collection, Merle Saferstein captures the essence of the famed Hollywood Beach Hotel and brings to life the characters that have crossed the threshold of Room 732. Set against the backdrop of Florida's Atlantic Ocean, Room 732 reflects the hotel's transformation from an elegant getaway during the '20s and '30s to a U. S. Navy training and indoctrination center during World War II. After the war, the upscale hotel re-opened. Then, in 1971, Florida Bible College moved in, followed by timeshares and condos. More recently, the ever-changing edifice was restored to the vacation resort it was originally intended to be. Woven through intimate letters, journal entries, and private conversations, each story explores the threads of connection, communication, and life experiences and echoes the culture of the times. Breathing life into the walls of Room 732, the characters experience a range of emotions as they live with the effects of war, the joy of discovering faith, the death of a loved one, the challenges of marriage, and the intimacy in relationships.You will meet two strangers who become friends, a seasoned Naval officer who is preparing sailors for war, and a young married woman who explores her innermost thoughts. You also will encounter a divorced father who is spending time with his daughter after a long absence, two cousins who have come to the hotel on a special mission, and many other individuals who have stories to tell.

Book excerpt: This is the story of a woman’s legacy of sin—sins handed down through the generations. Her story is really about life and the legacy that is handed down from her parents to her. Her view of life, actually. And her view of the bad and good choices that she made in her life due to that legacy that was handed down from her family. It’s about pain and sorrow and triumph. It’s about family! It’s about a little girl without a functional family and without guidance, and the pain that it caused throughout her life. Simple as that. It’s a one-sided story of her legacy and it being shattered in a moment!

Book excerpt: Growing up in a fast, dysfunctional world was normal for Alex. Everywhere she went, she was subject to abuse. She would catch the public bus at the age of eight years old in the rough city streets of DC. In the 1980s, watching drunks and drug addicts crowd the bus stop was everyday life. Forced to become street smart after being a ward of the courts for eight years, Alex thought things could not get any worse. Not surprisingly, they did. After trusting someone that she thought had her best interests at heart, she soon finds herself married and pregnant at the age of fifteen, and now a domestic violence victim. Determined not to let her present dictate her future, she began to reach out to God, with writing as her key to all her misery. With faith and strong determination, she changed her life path from being an abused child sexually and physically. As you read this book, you will learn to allow the inner child in you to speak and brighten your path while you discover that until you release your past, you too are still a child within.
