Book Description
What does a knuckle sandwich have to do with overcoming depression? Hint: It is not what you think... In 2006, the author ventured across the United States while trying to remain one step ahead of his dark and depressing past. At the age of seventeen, the darkness had caught up with him, while being faced with a life or death decision one cold Northern Michigan evening a voice told him to keep going. Years later, the rut continued so he made a frantic decision to make a drastic change in his life. Determined to find the life that had eluded him, he set out on an adventure that would change his life forever. Tormented by failures of his past, he meets influential people along the route that teaches him to re-frame his past and to let go. The meshing together of lessons learned from the open road and the rewriting of his history all culminate in pulling the author out from his darkness. The lesson of the "knuckle sandwich" is profound enough to stay with you for a lifetime. QUOTES FROM THE BOOK "A picture says a thousand words, but a simple picture doesn't tell the whole story.

The Art of Change
Author: Kelly Andria
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1477120033
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 349
Book Description
When gallery owner Nellie, a giving yet neurotic New Yorker, brings together the mismatched cast of characters in the opening of Ryan Whittaker’s debut, a phallic show, little does she know that she is setting the scene for odd and unpredictable relationships, much like Shakespeare in Midsummer Night’s Dream. The frenzied, magical mix-up is an outrageous farce with a deep moral message: there is a RIGHT place for everyone in this world and love and friendship cement us in it. The Art of Change is a funny, smooth reading romance, which deals with bridging differences in gender, education, social milieu, in an insane but pragmatic, modern fairytale, set in New York City. The twists of the plot are written without an ounce of cynicism but simply acknowledging that life is neither here nor there, neither black or white and all can be dealt with in real friendship and love.
