Book excerpt: From a renowned horsewoman and gifted storyteller comes this groundbreaking new book that explores a powerful relationship like no other: the magical kinship between women and horses. Drawing from myth and literature, the author’s own experiences, and interviews with countless women, we learn, through women’s deeply personal stories, how horses enrich our lives and connect us to nature–making us readers of rhythm and invisible signs, helping us harness our youthful sexuality, sharing the “horsepower” we need to reach our dreams. And here we see how, for thousands of years, the deep kinship between women and horses has connected us to our most intimate feelings of delight, helped us learn to solve problems, and set our creativity free. From the poetry of Geoffrey Chaucer to the fiction of Jane Austen to folktales from around the world, She Flies Without Wings uses great literature and myth to encompass a wide spectrum of beliefs and perspectives–and creates a true celebration of speed, air, and the spectacular animal that connects us with both. Filled with the moving lessons–-about sensuality, commitment, power, nurturance, and spirituality–women riders have known for centuries, written with a loving hand by an expert equestrian, She Flies Without Wings is an eloquent paean to a pairing that enlivened history, inspired literature, and continues to enchant us all.

Book excerpt: Looking back in retrospect, I should have kept it to myself. Maybe not say anything to her about it at all but, I did. I got the reaction I thought I would but in reality I'd hoped for something different. "I wish you would have told me when it happened, I would have killed that bastard" is what she said. That angered me more than the act itself because I believed she knew. After all, it wasn't the first time that molestation charges would be brought against him and obviously it wouldn't be the last. Or maybe it was. I'll never know. Year's later he was found dead as a door knob.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “With the fate of the free world hanging in the balance, women pilots went aloft to serve their nation. . . . A soaring tale in which, at long last, these daring World War II pilots gain the credit they deserve.”—Liza Mundy, New York Times bestselling author of Code Girls “A powerful story of reinvention, community and ingenuity born out of global upheaval.”—Newsday When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor in December 1941, Cornelia Fort was already in the air. At twenty-two, Fort had escaped Nashville’s debutante scene for a fresh start as a flight instructor in Hawaii. She and her student were in the middle of their lesson when the bombs began to fall, and they barely made it back to ground that morning. Still, when the U.S. Army Air Forces put out a call for women pilots to aid the war effort, Fort was one of the first to respond. She became one of just over 1,100 women from across the nation to make it through the Army’s rigorous selection process and earn her silver wings. The brainchild of trailblazing pilots Nancy Love and Jacqueline Cochran, the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) gave women like Fort a chance to serve their country—and to prove that women aviators were just as skilled as men. While not authorized to serve in combat, the WASP helped train male pilots for service abroad, and ferried bombers and pursuits across the country. Thirty-eight WASP would not survive the war. But even taking into account these tragic losses, Love and Cochran’s social experiment seemed to be a resounding success—until, with the tides of war turning, Congress clipped the women’s wings. The program was disbanded, the women sent home. But the bonds they’d forged never failed, and over the next few decades they came together to fight for recognition as the military veterans they were—and for their place in history.

Book excerpt: We fill our social media profiles with positivity. In showing pictures of our smiling families in beautiful settings we attempt to prove that everything is perfect. However, lives are not that simple, or always filled with happiness, despite how users might portray it. Sometimes, this pervasive fakeness can leave us numb. When someone - especially a public figure - passes away, it can become difficult to cope with the loss. Realness in times of grief - focusing on both the positive and negatives in a healing journey - provides a refreshing perspective.This book tells the aftermath of the passing away of Mark Hoverson, Shannon Hoverson's husband of over fifteen years. Shannon communicates an honest insight into the hardship, confusion, and uplifting moments that come with a loss. Through anecdotes, metaphors, and humor, Shannon gets real while showing the ups and downs of her life as a newly single parent and business owner. The memoir focuses on the different stages of healing with a loss, from moving on, to helping others throughout the process.
