Tormented by voices and fractured childhood memories, Danny’s adult life is a storm he can’t outrun. As a cynical Christian, he lives with the secret of the others inside his head, convinced he is trapped in his diagnosis. Coming face-to-face with the foster system that harmed him, he fights to cling to his self-reliant logic and doubt-ridden faith. Will Danny open the darkest pieces of his past to the only one who can bring total freedom? Part tough narrative, part tender prayer, Crazy Has A Name offers a gritty, moving look at one man's supernatural journey out of clinically diagnosed dissociative identity disorder and into complete mental and spiritual freedom. Inspired by true events. Trigger warning: Contains descriptions of traumatic childhood abuse. Reader discretion advised. Crazy has a name, and often that name is trauma. Readers who appreciate the education of Bessel van der Kolk's "The Body Keeps the Score" and the faith-building testimony of Joyce Smith's "Breakthrough: The Miraculous True Story" will find this book just as eye-opening and inspiring. This book was a finalist in the 2024 American Christian Fiction Writers of Virginia "Crown Award" for outstanding unpublished Christian fiction.

Eighteen-year-old Angeli doesn't "fit in." She's never been on a single date, and she lives vicariously through an online world of storytelling. With the pressures of choosing a practical future path bearing down, she needs a drastic change. Too old to run away from home, she opts instead to embark on a solo 2-month road trip. But her freedom is tempered by loneliness - and anxiety tests her resolve as she comes face-to-face with her quirky internet friends. Aside from contracting mono and repeatedly getting herself lost, Angeli's adventure is mired by more unforeseen glitches - like being detained by Canadian authorities, and a near-death experience at the hands of an overzealous amateur wrestler. Her odyssey is complicated further when she unwittingly earns the affections of two young men. One a privileged martial artist; the other a talented techie with a colorful past. Bewildered by the emotions they stir, Angeli spurns the idea of a doomed long-distance relationship. But she is unprepared for the determination of her hopeful suitors. In the wake of her refusal, one man will betray her, and the other will prove himself worthy of a place in her future. Angeli sets off in search of a better understanding of herself, the world, and her place in it. What she finds is an impractical love, with the potential to restore her faith in happy endings. A true story with an unapologetically honest outlook on life, love, faith, and adventure - Once Upon A Road Trip is a coming-of-age memoir.

Chance is a black-and-white thinker until she realises that sometimes there are shades of grey. Chance is in Year 7 and thinks she has it all - a loving mother, dog Tiges, best friend and almost-sister next door. But when a reality TV team makes over her house, she discovers newspaper cuttings from the past that cause her to question the world as she knows it and everyone in it. Then she finds herself caught between two realities, identities and worlds. Face-to-face with the truth, Chance has a very difficult decision to make, which almost splits her in two. This powerful story explores what is true and what is fake in today’s world. And while Chance is all about the truth, she ponders whether "Maybe being truthful was really just a big lie."

The inspirational story of how one man overcome his challenges with Tourette syndrome to become Georgia’s First Class Teacher of the Year. As a child with Tourette syndrome, Brad Cohen was ridiculed, beaten, mocked, and shunned. Children, teachers, and even family members found it difficult to be around him. As a teen, he was viewed by many as purposefully misbehaving, even though he had little power over the twitches and noises he produced, especially under stress. Even today, Brad is sometimes ejected from movie theaters and restaurants. But Brad Cohen’s story is not one of self-pity. His unwavering determination and fiercely positive attitude conquered the difficulties he faced in school, in college, and while job hunting. Brad never stopped striving, and after twenty-four interviews, he landed his dream job: teaching grade school and nurturing all of his students as a positive, encouraging role model. Now a Hallmark Hall of Fame Movie Event available on streaming platforms Front of the Class is now in e-book format for the first time and includes a new epilogue.

"Frank works as satire, as memoir, as comedy bromance, but it works mostly because it is just so weird" Guardian In the late 1980s Jon Ronson was the keyboard player in the Frank Sidebottom Oh Blimey Big Band. Frank wore a big fake head. Nobody outside his inner circle knew his true identity. This became the subject of feverish speculation during his zenith years. Together, they rode relatively high. Then it all went wrong. Twenty-five years later and Jon has co-written a movie, Frank, inspired by his time in this great and bizarre band. Frank is set for release in 2014, starring Michael Fassbender, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Domhnall Gleeson and directed by Lenny Abrahamson. Frank: The True Story that Inspired the Movie is a memoir of funny, sad times and a tribute to outsider artists too wonderfully strange to ever make it in the mainstream. It tells the true story behind the fictionalized movie.
