Book Description
"Do You Feel Isolated as a Mom?" You've heard, "No man is an island," but did you know that, "No mom is an island," either? Through twelve years of parenting, Cathy Spigarelli has learned moms need other moms, for advice, reassurance, suggestions, and camaraderie. In her book, "Life as a Mommy," moms find just such support. Every day for a year, Cathy wrote about life with her three, young children. The 365 compact entries have a girlfriend-to-girlfriend, conversational tone and can be read in minutes, without guilt. "Life as a Mommy" provides a window into the daily life of a mom, revealing her triumphs and struggles, her joy and laughter, and her dilemmas and concerns. The book gently advises, provides insights, and offers suggestions to fellow moms. You will laugh, you will cry, and you will wonder, as Cathy does, about this incredibly difficult, incredibly joyous thing called motherhood. Cathy Spigarelli didn't start out dreaming of being a mommy. Instead, she began a career as an engineer. She married and then completed a master's degree. With a brand new degree and a brand new baby, Cathy found herself at a turning point. Setting aside career ambitions, she became a full-time mommy. For twelve years, Cathy has been a stay-at-home mom. Every day for an entire year, she captured her thoughts, feelings, and concerns about daily life as a mom. She wrote while locked in the bathroom, at stoplights, and in the preschool parking lot. She lives with her husband (who wonders why he isn't mentioned in the book more often) and her three lively children (who wonder why mommy writes about them) in Indianapolis, Indiana. In this book, you will find that, as a mom, you do not walk alone. We journey through motherhood together. Won't you join me?

Book Description
Quintus Aurelius has gone by many aliases over the passing centuries. Originating from ancient Rome now to over 2100 years later he's found home in a sleepy little beach town in New Zealand. It's 1986 and the world has changed a lot, being born totally deaf the road has been a hard one to live in with little communication with people over the passing centuries. Being totally estranged from his twin brother for the past millennium he has to cope with accidentally exposing himself as the vampire he is to a human, not just any human an employee that has been working for him for the last six years. With the immortals being a constant threat to vampires and their way of life, what happens when an immortal shows up who Quintus believed was dead from a time when he was still mortal. This book is written in New Zealand English and it is written more to the way New Zealanders speak, if you have never heard a kiwi speak the lingo in this book might not make sense to you. All of my books are written like this and I like to keep with my kiwi roots, in a sense it gives the characters each a character to them that they wouldn't have if they were American. I've based it at Kaiteriteri which is my most favourite beach in the world, it has a golden coarse sand that you don't see anywhere else with the clearest blue sea.
