  Excerpt from Blest Atheist The Hannah Dustin Award My childhood contained two compartments: home and not-home. Not-home was a special place that I kept carefully separated to prevent the excesses of home from tainting it. Not-home was the place where I received validation, especially from teachers who encouraged me in many ways. Several of my elementary school teachers used me as a reading group teacher. Others encouraged my propensity for writing poetry and mysteries. Still others brought me whole libraries of books from their homes which I would inhale the way I had inhaled all the books in our small school library. My French teacher in high school encouraged me to write French poetry, which was published in our bilingual school journal. More pragmatically, I was drafted to write the class prophecy my senior year. As a result of all my writing, that last year in high school, my classmates voted me class poet in the popularity awards that are typical of American high schools. As eve

                             One of the fun things that a publisher (or at least, an acquisitions editor) gets to experience is meeting more than one member of a family -- as an author whose work we publish. Today, we introduce the Hucknall sisters, Janice and Nanette.  Janice Hucknall Snyder's book, Survival of the Caregiver , is an older book, but it is a good one, and one that does not really have a parallel for caregivers. The paperback edition is available at the MSI Press webstore on significant discount. Nanette's books have been published before and after Janice (Hucknall) Snyder's book. Nanette's books include The Rose and the Sword (co-authored with Judith Bach) and How to Live from Your Heart   (currently on deep discount on Amazon). How to Live from Your Heart has earned multiple awards:  Pinnacle Achievement Book Award Book of the Year Award finalist Best Books Award finalist Book Excellence Award Readers’ Favorite Book Award finalist Kops-Fetherling Le

  Today's blog post, "The Essence of Live: From the Personal to Unconditional," comes from Nanette Hucknall, co-author of  The Rose and the Sword  and author of  How to Live from Your Heart , who writes: In the intricate tapestry of human existence, one thread stands out with unparalleled significance – love. Not just the romantic kind, but the profound and overarching yearning to love and be loved. Love manifests in various forms: the love of a teacher, the warmth of companionship, the bonds of friendship, and the affection of family–both spiritual and biological. However, as with any powerful emotion, the pursuit of love can sometimes become excessive, leading individuals to prioritize it above all else–including their personal growth and spiritual development.

Well, these books may not reflect women's history, but they feature women and are great reading. And, uh, Road to Damascus actually does contain some Syrian history (and view of Syria in a more peaceful time). So, for reading pleasure, we recommend that women take some time out for relaxation and check out these books in paperback or ebook format. Paperback out of stock at Amazon?
