HONEY FROM A LION
NEW RELEASE!
Honey from a Lion is Fred Bassett’s love song to the American South. From the backwoods of rural Alabama to the Mountains of North Carolina, Bassett journeys through the bruised, beautiful heart of his homeland and into the hearts and minds of those who’ve gone before him – poets, novelists, historians, and philosophers. Part love story, part travelogue, part philosophical conversation, this is a ‘novel’ that transcends the parameters of the form. Readers who met the unforgettable Barsh Roberts as a boy in South Wind Rising will be pleased to find him all grown up and living on his own terms – a man of honor, integrity and refreshing self-awareness, a new kind of Southern gentleman for a new age.
~Margret Shinn Evans, Editor of Lowcountry
Weekly Married with an eleven-year-old daughter, Barsh Roberts had eased into middle age as a professor of religion and philosophy at Cooper College in Upstate South Carolina. Although his relationship with his wife Debbie is lackluster, he is totally committed to his family. The marriage, however, is doomed along with the daily joys of parenting their precocious Hannah. Without any premonition, Barsh is shaken to the foundation when Debbie asks for a separation with plans to take Hannah to Louisville, Kentucky. As he struggles to prepare their daughter for the separation and to discover a new direction for his own life, he finds himself drawn inextricably into the life of Angela Kundera, the new English professor from New York.

Dangerous Wishcraft
Religion and Mental Health
Authored by Linda J Falkner
Dangerous Wishcraft, a must read for anyone who has ever questioned the truth of religious beliefs, explores the dangers of relying on prayer ~wishcraft~ rather than using rational thinking skills, and the often tragic mental, emotional, and physical consequences that can result.
Religion, which may have originated as a way to explain the world, has now become an anchor in the fight against scientific knowledge.
Modern evangelical religions are attempting to drag the world back into the Dark Ages. This book shines a light, through stories of clients scarred by religion combined with scientific research, on the damage religious fanaticism can inflict on both individual and global levels, and also presents potential strategies for protection from the dangerous practice of wishcraft.
About the author:
Linda Falkner, licensed mental health counselor and owner of Cheer Counseling, observed that a significant number of her clients suffer from adverse effects of early childhood indoctrination into religion and now focuses on helping them recover from religious abuse. Passionate about such social issues, this book was "a must write."
