Who Am I?: Shocked to Emotion
Summary
Pat was a grandmother of a nine-year-old boy, Jimmy, who was the son of her delinquent and drug-using son, Tom. Pat was also going through a divorce; her son was not married. Her grandson's mother's parents were feeding the nine-year-old all sorts of evil ideas. Some of them included putting poison in Pat's food. Pat tried to give Jimmy a normal childhood, but he was not without his emotional problems, which put a damper on things from time to time. After Jimmy's father died, he grew up to be a successful man, got married, and had children. When Jimmy took his family on vacation, they met a tragic accident, leaving him in a coma, his children placed in foster homes, and his wife dead. Once Jimmy came out of the coma, he was left facing some demons of his own. Megan, the doctor, who had the same first name as his dead wife, fell for Jimmy. She persuaded him to get married. Jimmy decided to investigate his mother's death, and while locating relatives he ran into a cousin who tried to blackmail him.... Jimmy, once again, faced death....

Jersey Boy
Summary
If we are living in the era of Helicopter Parents and No Child Left Behind, then my seventies upbringing can easily be labeled as the era of All Children Left Behind. Sure, there was Dr. Spock and his earnest pleas for greater nurturing, but my New Jersey neighborhood was more aligned with another doctor; Dr. Charles Darwin.

The Bell Maker: A True Seeker's Tale
Summary
Wanted and Welcomed. Seekers of all kinds. Come take a little comfort and refuge from the Great Age of Sound. Discover what the ancient bell makers knew. Find what all people once knew. Travel yourself for a few hours and you may find it to be still true today. Sadly, the bell makers, over time, were replaced by noisemakers. They peddled work with little purpose and great distractions to fill what they called the emptiness inside. No one before then knew it was called empty. Folks then, saw it more as the vast endlessness of possibility. But soon, the people were so filled with noise, they could no longer hear themselves. They could no longer hear the voice within. The people became so filled with noise and distraction they had no room left inside for even one more clear radiant note from a bell. This began The Great Age of Sound. But, before The Great Age of Sound, there were bell makers. And they were magic. This is the story of one such man.
