Rebecca'S Soliloquy: A True Civil War Story
Rebecca Moffatt finds on her family's farm a wounded Yankee officer and nurses him back to health - not too remarkable, except that her husband is a Confederate officer away at war! Little does she know that her actions set in motion a series of events that will see her making a journey of over 250 miles from Obion County, Tennessee to St. Louis, Missouri.
She travels mostly on foot with an older couple who had been former slaves on the farm, an old horse, and a two-wheeled dogcart. Her mission is to get her wounded husband out of prison camp there and bring him home. But at what cost?
Rebecca's story unfolds through letters she has written to her husband while he is away fighting, letters she wrote but never sent. Her story came to light when her letters were found in a secret compartment next to the fireplace in the front room of the Moffatt house years later.

SURVIVING
In this raw, powerful memoir, Jeannette Meijer invites readers into the darkest corridors of her life to witness a journey of pain, abandonment, and ultimate resilience. From an early age, Jeannette was plunged into a world of chaos: her mother murdered, her stepfather imprisoned, and her family shattered. What followed was a childhood filled with trauma, years of abuse, silence, and isolation in the very systems meant to protect her.
Surviving, The Only Option unflinchingly reveals the lifelong effects of childhood abuse and societal neglect, while also illuminating the quiet, persistent flame of hope that burns within the human soul. Through poetry, reflection, and vivid storytelling, Jeannette explores what it means to grow up unwanted, to search for identity, and to reclaim one's voice in a world that looked away.
More than a memoir, this book is a call to action. It challenges readers to confront uncomfortable truths, to listen to the silenced, and to recognize the strength of survivors. Jeannette's story is not just about what happened to her, it's about what she made of it. It is an ode to those who keep going, even when survival is the only option.
The Chinese Conspiracy
John Mariotti's novel The Chinese Conspiracy poses a huge question: "What Happens When Nothing Works?"
What if all forms of electronic communications and computer controls were "shut down" at once? This is exactly the frightening prospect posed by Mariotti's novel, The Chinese Conspiracy. The U. S. government is temporarily helpless, as panic spreads. Evil forces, Chinese dissidents at high levels are using global extortion to exact a frightening toll. The growth of hacking and cyber-attacks continues to create massive problems. It is not a war of bullets and bombs, but a silent war or words and will.
The story starts with the human pain and suffering of a small-town plant closing, and spreads quickly around the world-involving primarily rebellious Chinese IT leadership and Pakistani programmers--where the plot unfolds. A hidden Chinese effort is invading hoping to control the US and much of the English-speaking western world.
Real world situations and current technologies add chilling credibility to The Chinese Conspiracy. Mariotti takes readers from human interest to the global power struggle and back again. Far less deadly than the attacks of 9/11, yet infinitely more disruptive, The Chinese Conspiracy poses the question: "WHAT HAPPENS WHEN NOTHING WORKS?" Reviewers called it "scarily realistic" and "happening now!"
In the tradition of Tom Clancy, Vince Flynn and James Patterson thrillers, Mariotti weaves a contemporary story of cyber-terrorism, plant closings, the human suffering and personal redemption. This is a wakeup call for Americans and the much of the Western world as the cyber-world rapidly joins with AI to blur the boundaries of fact, truth, fiction, to gain control.
The Chinese Conspiracy may keep you up all night--and it will certainly have you reaching for the phone or e-mail to contact loved ones--if anything still works! "How can we fight a hidden enemy we cannot see?"

HAIR TODAY GONE TOMORROW
In 2004 Sue found herself dealing with the fallout of the breakdown of her fourth marriage. Despite vowing never to marry again, she met Mark during a residential police training course. Despite all her reservations and her determination not to fall in love, she realised that she had found a man who honestly loved her. On the day of their house move into their new home and new life together, she found a lump in her right breast. Within ten days it was confirmed, she had been diagnosed with breast cancer and needed an operation immediately. Sue then faced an aggressive course of chemotherapy over a six-month period, followed by radiotherapy.
In 2019 she was devastated to find out that her breast cancer had returned in her bones and both her lungs. She now has secondary bone and lung metastases. This book tells the story of a very ordinary woman, a wife and mother, who has had quite an extraordinary life. It tells of her thoughts, feelings and emotions as she faced up to the prospect of losing her breast and dealing with the tough treatments that followed. Now with Stage 4 cancer, that is only treatable and not curable, she is facing the prospect of death. Sue, like many diagnosed with cancer, did not know what to expect and so she has written this book with the hope that it will provide encouragement and inspiration for those in a similar situation.
Sue very honestly talks of her relationship with God and how the cancer affected her outlook and, just when she felt that too much had happened in her life for God ever to be able to play a part, there was an incredible catalogue of events that took place giving her the message that God had never left her side. Today she believes that God can heal her, and she waits for that day to come.
This re-published edition now includes how she coped with hearing her cancer had returned. It includes the Blogs she wrote chronicling her journey.

COVER-UP: COLLUSION IN THE HALLS OF ACADEMIA
This is a story about scientific fraud and one woman's attempt to set the record straight.
In March 2001, post-doctoral fellow Dr. Marek Lenarczyk reported to Professor Helene Z. Hill that he had found that post-doctoral fellow Dr. Anupam Bishayee had set up an experiment involving cultured mammalian cells that were contaminated with bacteria or mold. Drs Hill and Lenarczyk believed that the lab chief, Dr. Roger Howell, had great faith in Dr. Bishayee and would not believe them if they reported their observations to him at that time. They thus determined to follow the progress of the experiment to its end knowing that it could not produce reliable results. This fateful decision would set in motion twelve years of investigations by the University's Campus Committee on Research Integrity - three sittings, the US Public Health Service's Office of Research Integrity-two sittings, a qui tam Federallaw suit charging violation of the False Claims Act, followed by 6 depositions by members of the department of Radiology of the NJ Medical School, 3 depositions by expert witnesses: 2 for the prosecution and one for the defense, a ruling by by the Federal District Court that there had been no violation of the False Claims Act because defendant Principle Investigator Howell had not known at the time that he filed the grant application that some of the data, produced by Bishayee, were false. Finally, a ruling for the defendants by the US Court of Appeals for the third Circuit in Philadelphia brought an end to the court case. Hill and expert witness Professor Joel Pitt now attempted to publish their findings of data fabrication and finally succeeded after 12 rejections.

Ripple in Still Waters
RIPPLE IN STILL WATERS isn't just a story, but a journey-a deep, human experience. It takes you into a world that feels like real life, because it is inspired by real emotion. It's about love, loss resilience, the supernatural connection between souls ... and the ripple effects of a single tragedy through generations of a family.
RIPPLE IN STILL WATERS begins in the 1950's. Two young immigrants from Canada find each other in America, fall in love, and build a family. Life is hard, but it's beautiful-until it's not. When their infant daughter, Tori, dies, the emotional collapse that follows threatens to break everything. It's a death that never fully dies. But then comes Fiona-a miracle child-with a gift: she can communicate with Tori's spirit. She keeps her sister's memory alive. She becomes the bridge between the world of the living and the world beyond. As Fiona grows, she struggles to find herself, and she gets lost-caught in toxic love, reckless choices, and emotional darkness. She runs to California. And while her family organizes a desperate search to bring her home...Tori-her sister, now her guardian angel-tries to intervene from the other side. It's a story like THE LOVELY BONES meets THIS IS US. It has the emotional range of MANCHESTER BY THE SEA, the family saga scale of THE NOTEBOOK, and the ethereal presence of GHOST. But this story has its own heartbeat. It weaves the supernatural with the psychological. It doesn't shy away from pain, or addiction, or grief-but it doesn't get lost in it either. It shines a light on hope, faith, and redemption. It's a multigenerational drama that explores what happens when the past refuses to stay buried...when love from the other side still wants to heal what's broken in the living. Picture Fiona, as a young girl, standing in an empty room, quietly talking to her sister's spirit-while her parents listen from the other side of the door, unsure if it's madness or miracle. Or a family dinner with empty chairs that feel full of ghosts. Or a California trip that spirals into a dark, dangerous descent. Picture a mother, kneeling at the foot of the bed, praying-not to God, but to her daughter Tori-to bring Fiona home. Tori, as a gilding presence, appearing in reflections, shadows, or in dreams-trying to nudge fate, but never fully able to intervene. It's haunting, hopeful, and real. This story is emotionally charged, with layered performances. It has Fiona as a strong female lead, with the challenge of portraying the push and pull between trauma and transformation. You have a mother fighting through loss, a father who silently crumbles, and the spiritual anchor in Tori's ghostly presence. This story swings
from gritty realism to soft, dreamlike surrealism. It's a story that lingers, that sparks conversations. That becomes personal for everyone who reads it. It's unforgettable-nostalgic, soulful, and ethereal. This story brings something meaningful to life. It moves people. It reminds us that even in still waters, there's movement-there's a ripple. This story heals, it resonates, it endures. In a world that is craving authentic, soul-stirring content-this is the story. People want more than entertainment. They want connection. They want to see characters who reflect their struggles, who fall, who rise, who fight, who believe.
RIPPLE IN STILL WATERS speaks to anyone who's ever lost someone. To anyone who's ever feltunseen, unheard, or forgotten. To anyone who's ever needed a second chance. This story has a message for everyone.

It's a story like THE LOVELY BONES meets THIS IS US. It has the emotional range of MANCHESTER BY THE SEA, the family saga scale of THE NOTEBOOK, and the ethereal presence of GHOST. But this story has its own heartbeat. It weaves the supernatural with the psychological. It doesn't shy away from pain, or addiction, or grief-but it doesn't get lost in it either. It shines a light on hope, faith, and redemption. It's a multigenerational drama that explores what happens when the past refuses to stay buried...when love from the other side still wants to heal what's broken in the living. Picture Fiona, as a young girl, standing in an empty room, quietly talking to her sister's spirit-while her parents listen from the other side of the door, unsure if it's madness or miracle. Or a family dinner with empty chairs that feel full of ghosts. Or a California trip that spirals into a dark, dangerous descent. Picture a mother, kneeling at the foot of the bed, praying-not to God, but to her daughter Tori-to bring Fiona home. Tori, as a gilding presence, appearing in reflections, shadows, or in dreams-trying to nudge fate, but never fully able to intervene. It's haunting, hopeful, and real. This story is emotionally charged, with layered performances. It has Fiona as a strong female lead, with the challenge of portraying the push and pull between trauma and transformation. You have a mother fighting through loss, a father who silently crumbles, and the spiritual anchor in Tori's ghostly presence. This story swings
from gritty realism to soft, dreamlike surrealism. It's a story that lingers, that sparks conversations. That becomes personal for everyone who reads it. It's unforgettable-nostalgic, soulful, and ethereal. This story brings something meaningful to life. It moves people. It reminds us that even in still waters, there's movement-there's a ripple. This story heals, it resonates, it endures. In a world that is craving authentic, soul-stirring content-this is the story. People want more than entertainment. They want connection. They want to see characters who reflect their struggles, who fall, who rise, who fight, who believe.
RIPPLE IN STILL WATERS speaks to anyone who's ever lost someone. To anyone who's ever feltunseen, unheard, or forgotten. To anyone who's ever needed a second chance. This story has a message for everyone.
