Vodka-flavored Tears
Tim Hillegonds
Vodka-flavored Tears is a memoir told through stories about growing up on the South Side of Chicago and trying to navigate through the stormy waters of childhood, adolescence, and my early twenties. It’s a book about taking chances and making mistakes and seeks to speak to the part of humanity that identifies with the pain that each of us goes through as we sift through the unique granules of our own individuality trying to find where, exactly, we fit in.

The Willingness to Change
Robin L. Tanguay
The Willingness to Change combines two proven technologies: the Twelve Steps (originating from Alcoholics Anonymous) and the Vimala System of Handwriting. With this innovative approach, the Twelve Steps are enhanced by the cortical re-mapping (realignment of the neurological patterns in the brain) that occurs when handwriting patterns are altered. The result is an easy-to-follow method for identifying and releasing limiting patterns of thought and behavior. With pen in hand, the reader can apply this information to create and experience positive shifts immediately.

Michael Gray has fashioned a story about this American century's defining subject, celebrity, and married the subject to the lean, fast-paced style of the noir thriller. The result is a highly readable, totally engaging novel.
Coming in January 2012
