Book Description
DescriptionThis compelling and poignant memoir tells about the journey through the disease of Anorexia, the recovery process, and all that comes with it-the hurt, hope and humor. After almost dying from the disease, and being neglected by the doctors, the author sought recovery and spent seven weeks at an inpatient facility. In her powerful story, she digs into the depths of Anorexia and describes how her simple diet and exercise program turned into a horrific eating disorder-one that controlled her life and forced her to go to the gym every day for four hours and reduce her diet to only fruit. After almost suffering from a heart attack and amazed that she was still alive, she knew she had to save herself and get treatment. Today, she is a survivor. By telling her story of the disease and recovery process, she not only educates the reader about eating disorders, but also shares with them a secret world unknown to many, and most importantly, that there is hope and recovery is possible. About the AuthorNicole Roberge was born in 1982 and lives in Connecticut. As a writer, she has been published in The Los Angeles Times, Rolling Stone, ELLEgirl, The Hartford Courant, Diverse Education, Her Sports, Gotham Baseball, Hear/Say, Songwriter Universe, SHE Caribbean, and writes a weekly humor-dating column for Online Dating Magazine. In addition, she was a book contributor to the Los Angeles dining guide, "Hungry?" She also founded and serves as editor to the online music magazine, "Tuned In Music." Roberge founded the non-profit "Beautiful Lives," for Eating Disorder Education and Prevention programs in Connecticut. She speaks at schools, health fairs, and forums on eating disorders. She continues to do other advocacy work in both Connecticut and Washington, D.C. Roberge holds a B.A. in English and a Certificate in Communication from Saint Anselm College in Manchester, New Hampshire, as well as a Certificate in Screenwriting from UCLA.

Lost Times, Times Lost
Author: Tage Seville
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1639030379
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
This novel follows the unlikely, interconnected, misadventures of a couple of newspaper reporters, a truck driver, a runaway scientist, two missing children on the run, and a mysterious corrupt global enterprise headed by one individual. Imbedded in the plot is one more of the myriad of attempts to examine the age-old adage involving the two provincial schools of thought concerning the origin of life. The first, of life perhaps being the sum of infinite coincidences; the other, of it being the result of an intelligence. This book takes the position of the latter. In taking that position, the author declares the source of the intelligence is identified in scrolls stored in various places of antiquity in the Middle Eastern part of the world. These writings became the basis for our Judeo-Christian Bible. The Christian part of that Bible is identified as the New Testament, which is based on the birth, life, death, resurrection, and purpose of Jesus of Nazareth, who is declared as and who we believe is the Christ God sent to give His life for the salvation of mankind. The book attempts to use modern-day events as examples of Jesus’s response to the Samaritan woman at Jacob’s well, in John 4, where He addresses the physicality of His Father when He said, “God is a Spirit.” The leaf that travels and is captured by a squirrel in the opening chapter is one of the author’s examples of how God uses what may appear to us as a coincidence to carry out His will. The ensemble of characters find their lives turned upside-down by a cutting-edge invention that has the power to upend the entire power structure of modern-day economics, closing the wealth gap and rewriting the dynamics of market control. Through it all, they will be challenged to see what is unseen and to be heroes in the truest sense of the word—that is, Good Samaritans. The novel ultimately makes a profound statement identifying what’s wrong with the human species through the voices of a visionary group and a wise American president. I hope you will enjoy, be uplifted, and maybe even be blessed by the read.
