Book Description
You Don't Need a Passport to Move to New Mexico By Debora L. Carr When an east coast 'Jersey girl' moves west to her new 'home on the range' in Albuquerque, it does not take long to figure out that 'they do things differently in New Mexico'. She finds she has moved from a state that has perpetually been the butt of comedian's jokes, to a state that is generally not even recognized as such by a large portion of the US population. A compilation of firmly tongue-in-cheek vignettes regarding life in New Mexico as viewed through the eyes of an oftimes bewildered transplanted 'Easterner', the reader is invited on a rollicking ride through a state filled with weird wonders from moss rocks to the 'mummy truck' and populated with a cast of colorful characters such as Tat2 Tammy, the Masked Man of Central Avenue and Jesus on a Harley, to name but a few. Born out of the humorous newsletters Debora wrote and sent to friends and family members 'back east', the book relates tales of crazy drivers, odd customs, and strange roadway sights amid a landscape straight out of a Roadrunner cartoon. All are part of the Land of Enchantment that is known as New Mexico. About the Author Debora Carr was born and raised in the central New Jersey area, graduating from Rutgers University with a BA in Art Education in 1980 and became a successful professional graphic artist and packaging designer. She chose to accompany her parents when they decided to relocate to and retire in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 2003, where she continued her chosen profession of graphic artist, working as a one-person art department for a small print shop. She continued to keep in touch with friends and family members 'back east' by means of periodic humorous newsletters which she called her 'Albu-Quirky Journals' in which she detailed her perspective on life in New Mexico. These collected essays were developed from those early newsletters and are written in a tongue-in-cheek style, emulating those written by two of her favorite authors, James Thurber and Mark Twain. She has a penchant for collecting stories and photos of all things weird, odd and unusual and is delighted to find that her new home state of New Mexico is overflowing with them.

The lack of language to identify emotional abuse and its aftermath among couples is a major barrier to recognition and treatment. From Charm to Harm breaks down this barrier by providing simple words and definitions that name and explain harmful interactions between intimate partners.

It will provide you with ways to protect yourself and your loved ones in current and future relationships. Determine if your mate is emotionally abusive, the effects on you, and how you may be enabling the abuse. Find out how and why charm turns to harm when one partner has a deep-seated need to control the other partner. Discover why people abuse their lovers, why their lovers allow it, how it happens, and its aftermath. Learn how easy it is to get caught up in the oppressive cycle of emotional abuse and how you might be contributing to your own suffering. Learn how to stand up to an abusive partner, get treatment for both partners, and make the choice to leave or stay in the relationship. From Charm to Harm will help you stop the cycle of emotional abuse and claim your right to be loved and respected by your mate.

Book Description
The sons of the fallen angel Gulielmus thought they were just taking out some supernatural trash in Eastern North Carolina. A year later, the effects of their brawl reverberate half a country away in New Mexico. Fortunately, the trouble surfaces in the best possible place: on the ranch of one of Maria’s oldest shapeshifter families. THE COUGAR’S PAWN Cougar shifter Mason Foye’s father died, leaving him the heir apparent of the alpha position of a group of mutinous cats. Now the absentee goddess who originated the species is sending him on an ill-timed mate hunt. And for once, her message is clear: convince stranger Ellery Colvard to become his mate, or else. THE COUGAR’S TRADE Hank Foye can’t find the logic in the goddess La Bella Dama pairing a shapeshifter group’s second-in-command with a meek and quiet human nurse. Given the chaos at home on the ranch and inside the Cougar group, Miles Bennet is a liability. He may have escaped being cursed, but he still has to get his house and heart in order. And Miles isn’t going to make it easy for him. THE COUGAR’S BARGAIN Hannah Welch doomed cougar shifter Sean Foye to spend the rest of his life in his animal form when she refused to accept him as a mate. To make peace with her new community, she bargains with La Bella Dama to free Sean from his furry affliction. The price? Finding him a more suitable mate. But now Hannah’s not so sure she should give him up. THE COUGAR’S WISH A desperate entity trapped in a hellmouth pleads for cougar shifter Belle Foye’s help. Former soldier Steven Welch’s job is to keep her away from the hellmouth by any means necessary. It’s just his luck that the bold and reckless alpha’s sister has taken a shine to him…and that his own secret supernatural situation could compromise everything they’re working for.

My first therapist told me I needed a witness, and here this date, 25 September 2022, the Lord spoke unto me that He was, in fact, the first witness to my story, and as He then witnessed my story back unto me. He then did compel me to write first for the healing of myself and then for the healing of others so they, in turn, can witness to others the power and healing contained within God-therapy that was first given unto me and is now available for all who have need, which means you, for that's how much He loves all of us to His glory.
