Angel Tracks

 NEW RELEASE

Authored by Pat Morgan

"Are you telling me she's gone?" The doctor nodded yes. On October 29, 2007, my world came to an end when Debbie, my only child, died.
I tried to tell the doctor about the car's turn signals going off automatically at the exact moment of her passing, about the voice I heard telling me to check the time on the dashboard clock.
I tried to tell him I had just met my first angel ... but he was looking at me like he was going to send me someplace very quiet and very dark.
So I shut up, went home, and prayed for help.

ANGEL TRACKS is the story of a mother's journey through grief and despair, a story of being pulled
out of that dark hole by God and his angels. It's a story of recovery, of truth ... a story about angels and what they'll do for you ... if only you ask them.

Lucinda Shirley - You Are

Is this one of the reasons we write, or what?

"Hi Melissa,
You book literally "popped" out at me in our used book section in our Huntington Beach Library. I was with my 7th grade daughter, that I home school and we are always looking for meaningful nice reads. We read half of the book together, and then put it down for a week , just been living life. This morning I decided to to finish it, couldn't wait. It is a nice rainy morning here, unusual and make my heart sing, since I am originally from Long Island , New York...Anyway, I finished it, riveted to every word, every thought, know that this book came to me to answer my lifelong question and fear about death. I know it is not a coincidence because my husband has cancer. I have never had the religious faith that my own Mother wanted me to have and believe in things that others did in afterlife, it just did not resonate with me. I have been knowing that somehow I would get this answer or at least a vision that would make sense for me to prepare my children that would feel good and comprehensible. I will finish the book with Maggie and let it absorb and know when and if her dad's life comes to an end sooner or even if he lives a long life, she will be more prepared that I was and of course go through the nature of grief but have the memory of your beautiful story to hold on to..Another book came to me simultaneously called Dying to be Me, which just came out, which is a true story of a woman who had the choose to come back to life in her near death experience. I KNOW that I attracted these books with love and now have no fear..I thank you for this type of writing. 

One of your chaters reminded me of homeschooling, which was Yehidah, we don't always plan and every day is an adventure that you choose. I am so grateful for our life and the path that led me there... I also have many books in my head, and feel All Things That Matter Press may be what my light needs to explore next.. The is an authors festival every year at The Huntington Beach Public Library.Have you ever been?? I will also make sure your book is available there, if it is not already. Thank You"

BRINKMAN ON THE WHEEL

Monica Brinkman's Turn of The Karmic Wheel is "A beautiful blend of mysticism and spirituality."

THE WHITE BRIDGE

Authored by Robert Rubenstein 

The sequel to GHOST RUNNERS, THE WHITE BRIDGE is a dark historical tale, a much needed parody of the pathology of racism and its deadly consequences as the world marched to war-as vital as today's headlines, an anthem for change and a new radicalism. Ginger Lee is a smashing news reporter who chases down the architect of a murder and implicates the American ideal. Powerful fiction!

 About the author:
With his second novel, The White Bridge, Robert has staked his claim to historical psychiatric literary fiction. Using the weapon of parody, fantasy, and the dream-scape of psychological horror, "Robert" investigates history, especially the roots of racism and prejudice in America. A friend to "Rocky and Bullwinkle," the author recognizes what role fractured fairy tales had on his arrested development. A former special educator in the New York Public Schools," Bob" raised two children as a single parent. "Reuven" is proud that his first novel, Ghost Runners, was included in the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. Currently, he teaches a college course for graduating seniors in advanced topics: the psychology of racism, "Bobby" hopes to complete a trilogy in the near future. A retired teacher and evaluator of children with special needs, "Ruby" swims three or four times a week. He travels frequently to the Southwest and likes being a minority among the Native-Americans. Companion pieces-Ghost Runners, historical fiction about two Jewish runners not allowed to compete in the 1936 Olympics and The White Bridge, about the evils of racism and American capitalism, eugenics and Hitler, baby farms and the culture of lynching; the current novel tests the courage of athlete/soldier heroes, and a journalist in the Jazz Age who must pit her strength against the evil of her times to save the dignity of a lost child. A man of many names, 'Rob' welcomes comments at RJRubenstein12@yahoo.com.

The ten-year-old girl traveling with her is traumatized and left speechless, orphaned by the violent act. From that day, she begins changing Jake's life in ways he could never have imagined.

The delicate-appearing child is anything but, and is destined to become the salvation of a world out of control.
