Unschooling means so much more than a hands-on, child-directed, and experience-based way of learning. It doesn't describe a specific alternative to schooling. It just gets schooling out of the way so various unique dynamic personal creative ways of growing up, living, participating, and contributing to communities can develop. When I say "unschooling," I really mean living cooperatively with children. What began as a way to approach my children's learning/education has evolved into a whole lifestyle characterized by unlimited creative possibilities for our whole family. In other words, we perceive our life as a creative adventure. We're all in it together. In "The Unschooling Happiness Project," I present my family life as a creative project, share my deeper motivations behind choosing the unschooling lifestyle, and include some practicalities of daily unschooling life.

A gripping new first-person POV urban fantasy romance series by NY Times and USA Today bestselling author, Michelle M. Pillow. All I want is a simple, normal life. Unfortunately, normalcy is a luxury I can't afford as a lowly human born into a powerful supernatural family embroiled in magic. They've always been quick to remind me that I have an expiration date. Imagine everyone's surprise when it’s me standing above their graves, not the other way around. The fire that took their lives wasn't my fault, yet everyone is blaming me, especially the vampires. Now I have a target on my back and a bounty on my head. Without the protection of my family, I’m caught up in a tangled web of supernatural dynasties and arcane power struggles. So when a handsome stranger and his young daughter take pity on me and offer me a ride, I don’t say no. It’s a mistake. One I hope doesn’t cost us all our lives. Sometimes, being merely mortal really sucks. Prepare for an exhilarating journey of magic, power struggles, and forbidden love like never before!
