“Francene and the Mussel Fairy”: a charming fiction that balances moments of truth with vibrant fantasy. “Francene and the Mussel Fairy” is the creation of published author Jan Bannerman, an editorial cartoonist with published works in local newspapers during the 1990s. Bannerman majored in radio, television, and film.

Bannerman shares, “Life is about change, but for Francene, change was almost insuperable. After the loss of her best friend, her mother, Francene struggled to find purpose and direction. The thoughts of her difficulties in school and her inability to read at her grade level were a continual embarrassment only offset by certain skill sets.

“The constant in Francene’s life was change. Being alone was temporary. A glistening pearl and a small displaced boy would soon offer camaraderie, adventure, and mysteries of the past.

“When prospects of a frog hunt are preceded by legendary tales of Miguel Vasquez the glassblower and the absence of Francene’s father, the wheels are set in motion for an adventure.

“Inspiration strikes when Francene inadvertently finds the Vasquez treasure glowing in the mud of Boggs Pond. When frogs talk, something has gone astray, ESPECIALLY when the specter of the ‘Most Serene Highness’ ‘Captain General’ Santa Anna appears. He IS angry. The week of San Jacinto Day in the classroom is truly a learning experience. Celebrating Texas independence from Mexico at the Battle of San Jacinto was not Santa Anna’s shining moment. He was not impervious to the Texans’ heated vengeance and shouts of ‘REMEMBER THE ALAMO. REMEMBER GOLIAD.’

“What do a displaced boy, a mussel fairy, a glassblower, a cook, a kidnapped explorer, and a scientist have in common? Rosita’s Wrath—an epic plan with an assist from the specter of Santa Anna. After a purported, phenomenal Saint Elmo’s fire guides the Vasquez treasure to the depths of the Gulf via an electrical storm, the treasure resurfaces twice.

“When ‘whispers from the wind’ reach the parrot woman, the epic plan and ‘the day of the animals’ begin marking the end of a ‘well-known secret’—sort of.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Jan Bannerman’s new book will delight and entertain the imagination as readers race to see what awaits the unlikely crew found within.

Bannerman offers readers a dynamic narrative that will engage the imagination from the start.

“The Suitcase”: an uplifting message of God’s love. “The Suitcase” is the creation of published author Priscilla Tate Gilmore, a resident of Salem, Oregon, and proud mother of two adult children.

Gilmore shares, “Beth Paine, a high school junior, remembers the day her daddy left, but she doesn’t recall her mother comforting her with hugs or explanations as to why daddy never came home. Ten years later, Beth still suffers from her loss, and her mom—busy with a new husband, young kids, and a job—fails to give Beth time.

“Molly Dettwyler, her best friend, is more interested in boys than helping Beth heal from her pain. But Jimmy Baldwin, a track friend, listens to Beth’s woes. Even though he has no advice, he promises to pray for her.

“Not understanding prayer and wanting answers, Beth happens upon an abandoned suitcase in the park. A letter is attached. The author of the letter challenges Beth to take the traveling box home and examine the contents. Will the contents help Beth to push the hurts of the past aside, help her to love God and forgive her mother, or will they cause new problems?”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Priscilla Tate Gilmore’s new book will bring readers a hopeful story with important lessons layered throughout.

Gilmore blends a compelling storyline with dynamic characters that will draw readers in as an impactful story unfolds.

“ChronicToo: Shattered: Inspirational Stories to Restore the Soul”: a deeply compassionate approach to healing. “ChronicToo: Shattered: Inspirational Stories to Restore the Soul” is the creation of published author Cornelius W. May, who holds a Doctor of Ministry degree from Ashland Theological Seminary and has served as a Senior Pastor for over forty years.

May shares, “Scars. We all have them. Some are physical and others, emotional. We were injured in one way or another. Our physical scars are quite visible, but our emotional scars are not.

“These internalized misfortunes remain with us, as if stored away below deck. Buried feelings, without warning, can be triggered and abruptly resurface at any time.

“Please know, you are not alone. Each of us carries invisible wounds, and we may even cry invisible tears. I can identify and fully understand.

“Unlike healing physical pain, there are no ointments or lotions to treat our fractured emotions. I guess that’s why we try to repress them inside. Yet the biblical psalmist said, ‘He restores my soul.’ And that restoration is available to you and me. No pain has to be in vain.

“Telling stories of God’s renewing strength through personal setbacks, trials, and adversity, I share what I believe to be enlivening pathways to lasting wholeness.

“Join me in an adventure toward soothing our silent suffering and healing our hidden hurts. The body and soul are connected. By addressing one, the other is likewise affected. May God graciously touch those deep recesses of pain accumulated along life’s path. Hope awaits.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Cornelius W. May’s new book will encourage readers toward taking measured steps in pursuit of healing.

May balances encouraging discussion with personal reflection in hopes of aiding others on their spiritual journeys.

Consumers can purchase “ChronicToo: Shattered: Inspirational Stories to Restore the Soul” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.

Linda Taborn, a proud family matriarch from North Carolina who is a born again Christian, has completed her new book “Thankful”: a faith based read encouraging thankfulness.

Taborn shares, “It seems we live in a society where people are not as thankful as we should be. It appears the societal norm equates to inconsideration and selfishness. It is apparent that we do not give God the thanks and acknowledgment that we should. However, when reading the Bible, we are made aware just how important being thankful and giving thanks unto God is. Hopefully, this book will serve as a reminder that we all have so much to be thankful for.”

Published by Page Publishing, Linda Taborn’s uplifting tale shares an encouraging reminder for believers that there is much in life to be thankful for and that in opening their hearts and minds to God’s love by showing thanks, He will guide their path.

Author Delores J Porter finds joy and love in her relationship with God. Through the highs and lows in her life, she saw people blame tragedies as God’s will. Porter disagrees strongly with this view, and in her book “God Out of the Shadows: Book Two,” she hopes to show readers that God has no darkness in him, and he is not to blame for the bad things that happen in the world.

“God Out of the Shadows” is a deep dive into the Bible and its true teachings. It addresses where modern Christian theology came from, and where it has been confused or distorted from God’s intended meaning. Utilizing evidence from the Bible, Porter wants to show readers that God loves every human being the same, and accepts all who will believe in him.

“It is time that people know the truth about God,” Porter said. “I started writing ‘God Out of the Shadows’ on Easter, 2020, to show people his love and grace and that he is always there to hear their whispered prayer to save, heal, deliver and protect. All good gifts come from the father above.”

Porter hopes that her book will help readers understand that God has never orchestrated adversities in anyone’s life.

“God’s true character that Jesus taught has been distorted and Satan laughs while God gets the blame for his own dirty works,” Porter said. “I believe the fables that got into the foundation of Christianity, back in the dark ages and continued in our Bible colleges, have stolen the truth about God, which has stolen our faith and miracles.”

Through her book, Porter looks to share what she has found to be God’s true teachings and hopes that readers will find a renewed love and relationship with God.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass. (PRWEB)
August 08, 2022

Author Kwamane O. Harris challenges readers to understand the importance of learning from past mistakes to encourage others in Pushing the Generations Forward: Finding Your Purpose Through the Next Generation ($13.99, paperback, 9781662855733; $5.99, e-book, 9781662855740).

This compelling book from Harris is for anyone who needs take the first step in discovering their true purpose in life. He believes that a life without purpose is a life that leaves one feeling empty and useless. He provides hope to readers that the best way to find their purpose is through the next generation. In fact, the outcome of the next generation is a direct result of how the first generation moves away from a life of “surviving” to a life of “thriving.”

Adopting the concept of “pushing the generations forward” is a much-needed mental shift that goes beyond current thought systems. No matter where one finds themself in life today, there is a responsibility to learn from past mistakes, face every generational curse and break the generational traumas that may have plagued a family line for centuries. Harris includes thought-provoking and relevant issues such as spirituality, racism, oppression, mental health, purpose, growth and fixed mindsets, brain science and resilience. After reading this book, readers will push the next generation into a life of thriving, a life filled with opportunities and a fulfilling life of true purpose.

When asked what inspired the author to write this book, Harris said, “I believe that everyone has a purpose in life and part of that purpose is to make life better for the next generations.”

Harris holds a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice, a master’s degree in Business Administration and is a Certified Professional Life Coach. He was the recipient of Utah’s “Business Magazine Top 20 in their 20’s” award. He has been supporting at risk youth and families for the last 15 years and possesses a proven ability to engage youth and families through advocacy, civic engagement and evidence-based prevention programming. Most recently, Harris worked with the United Nations Civil Society Youth Committee that led outreach initiatives for the 68th Civil Society Conference, which was attended by 2,000 representatives from more than 500 civil society organizations from over 100 countries.
