Too often our perception of our "best life" is usually someone else’s idea of it. What we define or boast about as “living our best life” is a very different picture than what God has in mind. Truth is, we can’t have God’s best life if we’re not willing to let go of our definition of it. In this 8-day devotional, we’ll explore a deeper dive into God's desire, picture, and intent for living our best life!

In Living Fully, Mallory shares her personal story of overcoming the unhealthy and damaging patterns in her life and shows readers how to trade this for something completely new and more rewarding.

Through inspiring stories and practical advice Mallory offers the motivation to: • stop returning to a “just getting by” mentality • shift perspective so blessings don’t become burdens • remember that life’s curveballs don’t have to knock you off your feet • identify your passions and get back to your truest self • slow down and enjoy the extraordinary in the everyday moments • quiet the voice of fear • get clear on the life you want “I wrote this to be your wake-up call, the thing that turns the lights on in your life and propels you to make real change, once and for all,” Mallory says. “I want you to wake up and stay awake.” For anyone hungry for a richer life, or tired of coasting through life in a “cruise control” mindset, Living Fully is the ultimate invitation to embrace abundance and joy—and not look back!

Based on true events, 21Wyte&Free is a riveting account of a “Homeboy” who stepped out of his “Control Shell,” his “comfort zone,” to weave stories and tales of adventures outside of societal norms. It’s a gritty look at what capitalism, sex, drugs, money and tragedy, can make of a Man! Mesmerized by the power of money, he took up the mantel. This book is full of “fiery” tropes of street life along with its danger and trappings. He was handsome, charming and he wrote his own narrative. Using his intellect to rise among the “High Rollers,” he rose, fall and rose again. And with all said and done, he remained true to his “life’s vision.” No chains, laws or redemption kept him from his “adopted truths!”

From the New York Times & USA Today bestselling author, Haleigh Lovell, comes a new romantic comedy. "Edric and Lucy are probably my favorite couple in the Hemsworth Brothers series. You will love them so much. I really couldn't put this one down. This is a need-to one-click book." ~ B.Wise, Amazon Top 1K Reviewer "This book will give you a major case of the laugh out louds and a big dose of the feels." ~ Gladys, Goodreads Top 5 Reviewer She is a good time--trouble, but fun. And I'm here for a good time, not a long time. So let the good times roll. "You're a bad idea." "But..." she ventured. "But I like bad ideas." We don't make mistakes, right? Just happy little accidents. At least that's what Bob Ross said. And my dad. Yep, he says that, too. Every year, on my birthday, he reminds me I'm a 'happy little accident' because the condom broke. But, hey! Wasn't the creation of penicillin a happy accident that resulted from the discovery of mold growing in an agar dish? And while that accidental discovery changed the course of medicine, Lucy changed the course of my life. Like a staph infection that somehow turns into an abscess that takes over your limbs, Lucy took over my heart--quickly, painfully, unexpectedly, but treatable with antibiotics. Bold, brash and unapologetically herself, Lucy represents anarchy from women I typically dated. She is my 'Beautiful Oops.' Lucy Lawless is my good mistake. Note: THE GOOD MISTAKE is a full-length novel packed with humor and heart. It's Book 3 in the Hemsworth Brothers series, but it can also be read as a standalone. REVIEWS: "This book is nothing short of laugh out loud moments of pure hilariousness! I was rolling. Like stomach hurting from laughing. Highly recommend you read this book! ✮✮✮✮✮" ~ Book Momma "While Lucy and Edric's meet cute isn't a new concept, the way their relationship played out was beyond amazing. Their banter, the effortless back and forth, had me laughing out loud, smiling like a loon in public, and getting a little steamed up at certain points." ~ Traci, Goodreads "Edric and Lucy are one of the BEST couples ever! Best book that I have read in a long time and I read alot of books. This had everything I look for: funny, heartwarming, sexy, great characters, great second characters, good story line, and hot chemistry." ~ Sue, GR "Do not start this book unless you have all day to read it, because once you start you will not be able to put it down. I have loved all the books in this series, but Eric and Lucy's is my favorite." ~ Jeanene, GR "These two just fit together wonderfully. They were so well suited, the banter was hilarious. There was no over the top angst just a genuine love story which had them deal with things straight on. There was communication and honesty, what a refreshing change!" ~ P. White, GR "From start to finish expect non stop laughter! The back and forth banter between these two was amazing!" ~ Words We Love "The Good Mistake is a tale of an unexpected duo who decide to fake a relationship and don't really realize when they stop faking it. Isn't that the usual story? But this one is a bit different." ~ Mells View "The banter and one-liners were classic." ~ Sarah Green "Lucy and Edric are an absolute riot." ~ Amy, Goodreads

Stages of Reckoning is a crucial conversation about how racialized bodies and power intersect within actor training spaces. This book provokes embodied and intellectual discomfort for the reader to take risks with their ideologies, identities, and practices and to make new pedagogical choices for students with racialized identities. Centering the voices of actor trainers of color to acknowledge their personal experience and professional pedagogy as theory, this volume illuminates actionable ideas for text work, casting, voice, consent practices, and movement while offering decolonial approaches to current Eurocentric methods. These offerings invite the reader to create spaces where students can bring more of themselves, their communities, and their stories into their training and as fodder for performance making that will lead to a more just world. This book is for people in high/secondary schools, higher education, and private training studios who wish to teach and direct actors of color in ways that more fully honor their multiple identities.
