Book Description
A sparkling romantic comedy starring a bestselling author who goes to Paris to overcome writer's block and rediscovers family, independence, and love along the way. All Maggie Bliss needs to do is write. Forty-eight years old and newly single (again!), she ventures to Paris in a last-ditch effort to finish her manuscript. With a marvelous apartment at her fingertips and an elegant housekeeper to meet her every need, a finished book—and her dream of finally taking her career over the top—is surely within her grasp. After all, how could she find anything except inspiration in Paris, with its sophistication, food, and romance in the air? But the clock is running out, and between her charming ex-husband arriving in France for vacation and a handsome Frenchman appearing one morning in her bathtub, Maggie’s previously undisturbed peace goes by the wayside. Charming and heartfelt, Dee Ernst's Maggie Finds Her Muse is a delightful and feel-good novel about finding love, confidence, and inspiration in all the best places.

Book Description
Maggie Murphy never intended to run away. She had the perfect life. Perfect husband. Perfect kids. Or did she? If life was so perfect why did she go out for coffee very early one morning and end up living a new life in Sweet River, South Carolina? Was it the two runaway girls she encountered at McDonald's or the women at the Get Your Groove On Conference who lured her down the highway to a little yellow bungalow, new friends and even a friendly ghost? Or was it something else? Finding Maggie is the story of one woman who has to leave home to find what she never knew was missing. Before she's finished Maggie has learned a lot about life, love and following her dreams.

Book Description
Graduate schools churn out tens of thousands of Ph.D.’s and M.A.’s every year. Half of all college courses are taught by adjunct faculty. The chances of an academic landing a tenure-track job seem only to shrink as student loan and credit card debts grow. What’s a frustrated would-be scholar to do? Can he really leave academia? Can a non-academic job really be rewarding—and will anyone want to hire a grad-school refugee? With “So What Are You Going to Do with That?” Susan Basalla and Maggie Debelius—Ph.D.’s themselves—answer all those questions with a resounding “Yes!” A witty, accessible guide full of concrete advice for anyone contemplating the jump from scholarship to the outside world, “So What Are You Going to Do with That?” covers topics ranging from career counseling to interview etiquette to translating skills learned in the academy into terms an employer can understand and appreciate. Packed with examples and stories from real people who have successfully made this daunting—but potentially rewarding— transition, and written with a deep understanding of both the joys and difficulties of the academic life, this fully revised and up-to-date edition will be indispensable for any graduate student or professor who has ever glanced at her CV, flipped through the want ads, and wondered, “What if?” “I will absolutely be recommending this book to our graduate students exploring their career options—I’d love to see it on the coffee tables in department lounges!”—Robin B. Wagner, former associate director for graduate career services, University of Chicago

Book Description
Heartifacts shares the message that Maggie Horgan has already used to help hundreds of grieving families at hospitals and memorial services in her home state of Pennsylvania. A message of hope for parents and siblings facing a loss that no person should have to bear: the loss of a child. Maggie has experienced such a loss herself. In 2001, her firstborn son, Neil, lost his life to cancer. Drowning in grief, Maggie knew that she needed to find a way to move on as the single mother of three other children. Her strength and ability to do so came from her son Neil—and a heart-shaped stone that appeared in the most unlikely of places. For parents, siblings, doctors, nurses, social workers, and educators—and all those who grieve for a child—Heartifactsshares a compassionate message of healing in line with the work of Melody Beattie and Mitch Albom; it is anchored in the profoundly personal.
