Recent release “A Marriage to An Asexual Bisexual: A Book Of Poems” from Page Publishing author Liam Edward is a collection of poems presented in chronological order as they were written over those thirty days. It’s a journey that has allowed Liam to process everything that has happened and everything that was presently going on in his life.

Liam Edward, who grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, has completed his new book “A Marriage to An Asexual Bisexual: A Book Of Poems”: a book of poems that takes readers on a journey through the author’s mind as he processes the broken marriage with his wife who was the love of his life.

Liam’s wife came out as asexual and bisexual, which confused Liam as to what his role was in the relationship. When Liam’s wife came out, they were already separated for about nine months. Liam’s wife asked him to move back in and work on the marriage. There were some hurdles to overcome, though.

When his wife came out as asexual and bisexual, his wife also told him that she was sexually roleplaying on Twitter using characters from Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Broadway plays and movies. Liam told his wife that he was willing to work with her coming out as asexual and bisexual because he loved his wife very much but was not willing to accept her sexual roleplaying while being married. His wife agreed to stop the sexual roleplay, so Liam moved back in to work on the marriage. A few months later while cuddling in bed at night, Liam saw his wife sexually roleplaying on Twitter and told his wife the next morning that she was cheating on him. Things went south really fast.

After Liam confronted his wife about the cheating, his wife kicked him out of the house. Liam spent that weekend scared, confused, and confiding in the bottle. Liam relapsed after being sober for some time. Liam went into rehab where he met with his therapist every week. His therapist challenged Liam to journal every day to get his thoughts and emotions out so that he could process them. The journaling led to writing poems.

Author Liam Edward is an avid sports fan of the local sports teams. Liam is the youngest of five siblings and grew up in a great household. Liam graduated college from a small liberal arts college in North Carolina in 1998. Liam has spent most of his professional career in restaurant management. In 2007, Liam met the woman of his dreams and was married to her in June 2008. Liam and his wife grew their family via the foster-to-adopt program. They have three kids together.

Liam started writing poems in the fall of 2021 after going through a lot of personal and relationship issues. Writing poems was very therapeutic for Liam to get his thoughts and emotions out and to deal with them healthily. Liam is a recovering alcoholic and a friend of Bill. In his spare time, Liam likes to hang out with his kids, goes to sporting events, and loves going to the movies. Liam also takes time each day to work on his poems and other artistic avenues.

Published by Page Publishing, Liam Edward’s remarkable work invites readers inside the mind of the author as he processes this life-changing experience.

Readers who wish to experience this thoughtful work can purchase “A Marriage to An Asexual Bisexual: A Book Of Poems” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

“Lemonade for the Soul: Poems” from Christian Faith Publishing author Jane Phells is a thoughtful arrangement of bright and motivating poetry that will encourage reflection and appreciation for God’s gifts.

“Lemonade for the Soul: Poems”: an enjoyable and lighthearted anthology. “Lemonade for the Soul: Poems” is the creation of published author Jane Phells.

Phells shares, “Our soul is a special part of our being and our life, and it does exist within every one of us. It is something God has given to all. Although you can’t see your soul, a situation or perhaps an act of kindness can touch your soul. To me, it’s an experience, not just a feeling. I believe something like lemonade is an example of how a small bitter fruit like a lemon can be changed into something sweet, delightful, and refreshing that reaches deep within my soul. Lemonade, on a hot sunny day, can taste so good, it will even brighten your day. It may also make you smile and want more. I believe when something seems to reach deep within your soul, it can cause either a good or bad reaction. A poem, a song, a picture, so many things in life can reach deep within our souls, an event or perhaps pain. It may linger in your thoughts as time goes by.

“You can choose how you want your lemonade to taste when you create your own recipe. Just like in life, God gives us a choice in everything, and we have a chance each day knowing that in living life, some wonderful things can reach deep within our souls and bless us in many ways—even something as special as lemonade.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Jane Phells’s new book will entertain while encouraging the spirit as readers reflect on the carefully crafted verse within.

Phells shares in hopes of encouraging readers to seek out the joy and comfort that God offers.

Consumers can purchase “Lemonade for the Soul: Poems” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.

New book shares lessons of the pandemic through poetry and stories by 18 people from India and the US with space to list the lessons learned

As a psychologist in rural West Virginia during the pandemic, Don Worth, Ph.D. was surprised that many of his patients got better during the stay-at-home orders, and yet when restrictions were lifted, they drifted back to old routines and their symptoms worsened. He wanted to offer an opportunity to identify the lessons of those times, behaviors and practices that were making people well despite circumstances and apply this wisdom now and especially when engaged in difficulties, in order to foster growth and wellness.

“Good News, Bad News, Who Can Tell? The Pandemic Reveals Wisdom” (published by Archway Publishing) offers a variety of touching stories, lyrics, and poems written by people who represent nine categories of those on the frontlines of the pandemic (educators, COVID-19 survivors, artists, clergy, those who lost loved ones, students, physicians, restauranteurs, and journalists) from the U.S. and India, regarding experiences, lessons and wisdom they acquired. Several names may be recognizable as people from the area.

A novel interpretation of the parable is presented as well as a framing (a figure 8) that provides some perspective and guidance as people move through the various trials and tribulations of life, and through challenges of mental illness and substance use. This book also includes a chapter titled “Signs of the Times” which highlights a variety of creative and amusing signs during the pandemic. Even some clever bathroom signs. The summary outlines lessons learned and wisdom gained by Dr. Worth from struggling through the pandemic in rural West Virginia, as a psychotherapist on the frontlines, and from reading the heartfelt stories and poems in the book.

“My hope is that your perspective and experience of life during the pandemic will be expanded to include ours, and that we can collect a library of lessons learned and wisdom gleaned that can inform our present and future, while offering a roadmap for life, learned from the sacrifices of so many. Space is provided for you to record the wisdom you acquired, your reflections and observations, list hard-earned lessons you learned and from no other way, identify contributors to your wellness and practices you wish to implement or maintain, and even space for your creative expressions by poem, story, or photography,” Dr. Worth says.

When asked what he wants readers to take away from the book, Dr. Worth answers, “An opportunity to reflect on their own experiences and wisdom gleaned during the pandemic. To expand their perspective from reading the wholehearted expressions of a vast variety of folks like us. To gain new wisdom and tools in order to grow through other challenges. To simply be entertained and amazed by the strength of the human spirit.” For more details about the book, please visit https://www.archwaypublishing.com/en/bookstore/bookdetails/838122-good-news-bad-news-who-can-tell

Recent release “From the Shadows” from Page Publishing author Rita J. Ray is a beautiful collection of intimate verse bringing to vivid life the universal and timeless emotions of romantic love, exquisite passion, and the anguish of loss.

Rita J. Ray, a lifelong writer and Southern California resident who was trained as a journalist before launching a career in public education that spanned from the classroom to the office of human resources, has completed her new book “From the Shadows”: a collection of lyrical poems laying bare the vivid emotions of a deeply felt life.

The author shares, “The poems of this book reflect the principles of love, loss, and struggle. In a poignant, familiar way, they are coming to terms with human emotion. Their message is a snapshot of feelings expressed with self-awareness, captured within verses that are lyrical, intimate, and timeless. Like most everyone, I’ve loved and lost, lived to love again, then set yet another free. As a writer, I’ve always been drawn to the lexical, the interplay of words, imagery, and tone. One of the best things I’ve done in life is to come from the shadows and empty my heart, my soul—the essence of who I am—into the writing of a poem.”

Published by Page Publishing, Rita J. Ray’s engrossing book is a superb choice for avid poetry readers.

Recent release “Abominable” from Page Publishing author Angelica Hubbard is a gripping and vivid book filled with immensely personal poetry that highlights how much pain a hurt soul can endure in this life.

Angelica Hubbard, an author from Columbus, Ohio, has completed her new book “Abominable”: a very personal book of poetry that brings into light all the darkness of this world.

Hubbard’s writing is a deep dive into the human psyche, as she writes, “Most of her writing consists of someone’s worst fear, terrifying truths, and hidden secrets, but most importantly, uplifting reminders that at our worst moments, we are in the stages of being molded for something far greater than what already is while God is preparing something better for us ahead. So please, before you give up, trust the process.”

Published by Page Publishing, Angelica Hubbard’s powerful poetry book is filled with deep and insightful knowledge that flows through topics like fear and pain with ease. Her words draw readers into an unfiltered world where solace can be found in the pain and darkness. Readers will gain comfort in the words that Hubbard has written.

Hubbard writes, “Abominable: the closet definition there is to describe a hurt soul for it is a place you never want to be, a feeling most could never live to endure, and a word only spoken as a whisper. Take a moment for your eyes to visualize life by words that can only be written by someone who has shed burning tears during sunny days, and stormy nights are a secret hiding place.” She writes from a place of heartbreak and gives readers somewhere to ease the darkness that is so prevalent in this world.

Readers who wish to experience this inspiring work can purchase “Abominable” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
