Once a young, carefree teenager competing in sports and laughing with friends, she wakes to a different reality full of dire predictions about what she will never be able to achieve.

To lead the life she envisions, she must believe in herself, use the resources available and never give up.

Jamie should have known something was up when he stumbled in out of the snow and they’d saved him a cup of coffee. For the city-worn Montrealer, the village of Sneaky Hollow is a badly needed breath of fresh air, but it’s also, he begins to discover, a place that shouldn’t exist.

Nestled somewhere between the backroads of the Eastern Townships and a wrinkle in time, Sneaky Hollow gives Jamie exactly what he needs; a home, a community, and a madcap touch of magic that never fails to delight him. But as outside forces threaten to iron out that wrinkle and erase Sneaky Hollow for good, Jamie teams up with a determined young woman and a crowd of eccentric café regulars with a shared goal. That goal is simple (in theory): to uncover the mysteries of this wonderful place, to understand why it called them to it, and pull together enough maple syrup–fuelled resistance to save it.

A cozy, magical-realist village novel that imagines memories with a gravity of their own, Where Time Stands Still is a charm-and-nostalgia pie topped with a pinch of quantum physics (just for spice). Whether you're longing for a place that feels like home, or wondering if such places still exist, this book answers with a warm yes, and then invites you to stay awhile.

God and Babies: Glimpses of the Divine draws on our experiences with the very young to explore the nature of divine love. Using Christianity as an explanatory model, Dr. David J. Dixon takes seriously the idea that babies and toddlers have profound lessons to teach us—about grace, love, and forgiveness; tolerance and dignity; suffering, death, and eternity; and, above all, living with both doubt and hope. By delving into the beautiful truths babies teach us through their innocence, God and Babies: Glimpses of the Divine is a plea for compassion and acceptance, and a reproach to religious radicalism and intolerance.

With insights developed as a physician, a religious studies professor, and a parent, Dr. Dixon demonstrates how a baby's way of being in creation can be revelatory and inspiring. Through their welcoming, tolerant, and inclusive love, babies and toddlers can teach us how to love as God loves, even in times of trauma, heartache, and illness. And when this lesson is learned, we can begin to heal the wounds of bigotry and hate.

God and Babies: Glimpses of the Divine offers a vision that will challenge, encourage, and console, while giving a refreshing and deeply human perspective on the world and its Creator.

The angst of modernity is that of powerlessness, disenfranchisement, and alienation. People everywhere are experiencing helplessness in a world where the few rule, and leaders and legislators run roughshod over the masses with a deluge of laws, and where technology encroaches upon their daily lives and privacy, and an economic inequality never before seen in history. The concepts of self-determination; destroying superstition; government by the people; questioning all authority; and the power of knowledge, reason, and the authority of the individual is on the verge of dying. However, as Thomas Paine said, “We have it in our power to begin the world over again.”

Today’s world cries out for a new breed of thinker—rational, brave, bold, innovative, intuitive, and artistic. We all need to re-evaluate—to become questioners, explorers, and seekers. Knowledge, Consent, and Liberty is about the power of knowledge; the supremacy of the consent of the governed; the legal and Constitutional right of the people of the globe to form their definitions of liberty, freedom, and government; and their obligation to create their collective destiny. Its lofty goal is to challenge, empower, and enlighten the reader. In a logical progression from premises to conclusions, it lays out a philosophical, historical, and scientific argument that humans create their world for good or bad. It expounds on current social, political, and cultural issues that deserve consideration for reform or change. And it maps out a constitutional strategy and method for “the people” to create America, and the world, in their own image rather than that of a few oligarchs.

At the age of forty, my husband set himself a simple challenge: to be healthier as he aged, instead of the other way around.

It started out easily enough but got progressively more difficult over time. The main problem? With every year that passes, the body ages at an increasingly faster pace, which meant he had to start to learn a lot more about ways to slow down this destructive process. Everything was going smoothly until a motorcycle accident in 2018 forced him to leave his career and put his life on hold. This time away from work along with the isolation of the Covid-19 pandemic gave him the time needed to work on more in depth self-healing techniques. He developed twelve ways to do this, known as the twelve spokes in the Wheel of Life.

The Age Gauge uses the twelve spokes of the Wheel of Life to show you how we can live longer and healthier lives. For 99.9% of human history, our ancestors thrived in an environment with many sources of adversity. For this reason, adversity is baked into our human cells through our longevity genes. Science shows that when we expose ourselves to the many sources of adversity, we stimulate our longevity genes and live longer and healthier. Unfortunately, we are doing the opposite, moving more and more towards a life filled with many modern-day conveniences. This is the opposite of adversity.

The universe around us provides all the hints we need to be healthy, we just need to open our minds. In this book, you’ll learn about what keeps us healthy and what makes us sick, and see the path we are currently on, which is at a breaking point from a global health perspective.

John urges us all to wake up to the self-destructive path we’re on. He’s going to teach you the things that work for the average person—habits you can easily implement into your life, things that won’t cost you a fortune. Best of all, he’s done all the research for you. This book is the culmination of decades of reading, learning, asking questions, trial and error, studying, and working with thousands of friends, family members, clients, and students.

Learn how to accomplish goals like losing weight, moving your body more, having less stress, getting outdoors, connecting with Mother Earth, overcoming addictions, learning about nutrition, getting healthy and staying healthy. No matter how far you are off track in your life (addictions, stress, struggles with weight or mental health), there is a way to come back to the way we, as a human race, thrive best. This is my story of John’s journey to better health using his Wheel of Life concept.

Young Sebastian Cabot dreams of becoming a navigator and commander like his father. He and his younger brother, Sancius, embark on Admiral John Cabot’s 1498 voyage to discover a route to Asia. But desperate to succeed, John splits the fleet: he heads south with Sancius towards Spanish territorial waters and marauding warships, while Sebastian and two other ships sail north. When his father and brother do not return, Sebastian, spurred by a turncoat spy’s confessions, travels to Lisbon and Seville, uncovering evidence that they were murdered at sea.

Believing the Cabot name disgraced and the English crown turning to other explorers, Sebastian leaves his family’s home in Bristol for London. All he desires is to become a master mariner and navigator, yet without England’s support, he must look further afield. Seville, the epicentre of Spanish maritime command, beckons—but can he ignore the signs linking the Spaniards to his father’s and brother’s deaths? And by following his father’s footsteps, will he, too, fall prey to reckless ambition?

Spinners of Destiny, the sequel to John Cabot – Commander, explores the perilous lives of men whose dreams compelled them to seek glory and fortune on unknown oceans—men who knowingly risked everything and often paid the ultimate price during the Age of Exploration.

When former NFL player and Super Bowl champion O.J. Brigance was diagnosed with ALS, his wife, Chanda Minor-Brigance, suddenly stepped into a role she never applied for: full-time caregiver. Purpose Still Lives Here: A Caregiver’s Fight is her unflinching, faith-filled memoir of love, resilience, and finding meaning in the middle of heartbreak.

This book is written for caregivers, women of faith, and anyone walking through seasons of unexpected loss, responsibility, or life pivots. Readers will recognize themselves in the exhaustion, the guilt, and the quiet triumphs, and they’ll find encouragement that they are not alone.

Themes of faith, resilience, caregiving, marriage, grief, and purpose speak directly to those balancing family, health challenges, and their own identity. Whether readers are in their 20s or their 70s, whether they’re caregivers by choice or by circumstance, this book offers both honesty and hope.

At its heart, the memoir shows that:

• Caregiving is not weakness—it is a strength forged in daily sacrifice.

• Faith does not erase suffering, but it anchors us through it.

• Purpose can survive diagnosis, exhaustion, and even shattered dreams.

Readers will walk away with courage to face their own battles, practical reflections on self-care and perseverance, and a renewed belief that purpose still lives inside them too.

A little patch of forgotten earth...

Set in rural Guyana, The Dangerous Bush Garden is a coming-of-age story told through the eyes of a determined nine-year-old boy growing up close to the land.

What begins as a simple plan to clear a small patch of bush soon becomes something far larger. Faced with a tangled wall of thorn, hardened shrubs, and gnarled trees, the boys discover that adventure is rarely as neat as it sounds. Barefoot and undersized, they swing cutlasses nearly as big as themselves, learning quickly that the land does not give way easily.

Along the way, curiosity leads them into trenches, deep bush, and unexpected danger. Snakes, alligators, and poisonous insects are part of the landscape, just as much as laughter, friendship, and stolen moments of freedom. Between hard work and close calls, they build rafts, cook in the bush, and chase the kind of adventure only childhood allows.

Warm, reflective, and grounded in lived experience, The Dangerous Bush Garden is a story about growing up, facing fear, and discovering what it means to do a man’s work while still being a boy.

When Clara fell for Adam, she felt an unwavering kind of love for him, a love built on her belief

in the compassionate words that others didn’t hear but that meant everything to her because she heard them, she heard him. She held onto that love through Adam’s drinking and gambling, highlighting his lies, manipulation and abuse. And like those unheard words that built their relationship, others couldn’t fathom the abuse that would ultimately break it.

Throughout the turmoil, Clara found some peace in keeping a secret journal. It’s from those pages that Shattered but Unbreakable: Living with a Covert Narcissist emerged. The early warning signs, recurrent abusive techniques, self-doubt, and self-gaslighting—this hybrid memoir uncovers it all. The raw, candid prose shows the complexity of abusive relationships. Because there’s nothing simple about leaving, not with a narcissistic spouse and not with children to protect. And where prose can’t capture the rage, despair, and pain, Clara’s drawings and poems do. They’re vulnerable and intimate, poignant and insightful.

Shattered but Unbreakable is more than a trauma memoir; it’s a memoir about perseverance, resilience, and finding self-love and -worth. It’s a call to action for anyone who’s felt unheard, less than, trapped, or alone. Now is the time to rise and rage. Because you’re not alone, Clara is right beside you.

Echoes of Huron’s North Shore brings together the annotated newspaper columns of JB Dobie, a merchant and keen observer of everyday life in the northern Lake Huron communities during a period of profound change. Originally published in local newspapers in the 1920s, Dobie’s writings look back on the people, work, and rhythms of the North Shore from the late nineteenth century through the early twentieth.

Writing with clarity, humour, and an eye for detail, Dobie records the experiences of people settling in a region rich with natural resources and for many, a desire to escape the forces that led to their emigration. His columns capture both the economic development of the region over time and the social fabric of frontier communities, preserving stories and anecdotes that rarely appear in official records.

Carefully annotated to provide historical context, this volume offers valuable primary-source material for scholars of social and regional history, while remaining accessible and engaging for general readers and visitors interested in the lived experience of North Shore history.

The thought-provoking columns written to entertain, still resonate one hundred years later.
