  For millions of people around the world, Carol Brady is synonymous with  motherhood, but growing up as the youngest of ten children in rural  Indiana in the aftermath of the Great Depression, Florence Henderson  lived a life quite different from that of the quintessential TV mom she  later played on television. Florence's father was a dirt-poor  tobacco tenant farmer who was nearly fifty years old when he married  Florence's twenty-five-year-old mother, and was nearly seventy when  Florence was born. Florence's childhood was full of deprivation and  abandonment. Her father was an alcoholic at a time when there was no  rehab or help for the disease. Their home rarely had electricity or  running water. When she was twelve, Florence's mother left the family to  work in Cleveland and never returned.Florence opens up about her  childhood, as well as the challenges she's faced as an adult, including  stage fright, postpartum depression, her extramarital affairs, divorce,  her hearing loss, and heart problems. She writes with honesty and wisdom  of how her faith and ability to survive has brought her through rough  times to a life of profound joy and purpose.

  Anyone who has ever moved to a new city to start a new life knows the obstacles, both mental and physical, that such a move creates. No only does it often involve leaving perhaps the only life you might ever have known, but it means starting a new life in an entirely new location, a location that has its own traditions, customs, and style. For writer Ken Green, that transition meant leaving the big city of Chicago for the not-so-big city of Denver. It was the Midwest vs the real West, Chi-Town vs Cowtown, the City of Big Shoulders vs the City That's Near Boulder. And rather than do it for career purposes, he does it more personal reason: to join his future wife. Welcome to Colorful Colorado recounts the initial phase of his journey, from Chicago to the Mile High City including:Leaving behind a life of 49 years in Chicago in a matter of weeksEncountering a Nebraska blizzardThe possible "omen" of breaking down just after crossing the Colorado border 
  Welcome to Colorful Colorado is the sometimes-humorous tale of one man's decision to begin an adventure on the other side of the "world", when that world is 1,000 miles away. 
  Short Story Press publishes short stories written by everyday writers.

  The author of the Chance Purdue series introduces a Chicago detective who goes under the big top to take down the ringmaster of a Russian conspiracy.   When the CIA chooses Birch Kirby, a mediocre detective with a personal life even less thrilling than his professional one, no one is more surprised by the selection than Birch himself. But the agency needs someone for a secret mission, and Birch may be just the clown for the job. Going undercover as a circus performer, he travels to Grizzly Gulch to investigate the source of daily, un-decodable secret messages that are being transmitted to the KGB. Birch interacts with wildly colorful characters while stumbling through performances as well as his assignment. With the clock ticking, Birch must hurry to take a right step toward bringing the curtain down on this very important case.  Praise for Ross H. Spencer’s The Dada Caper “Parodies of the private‐eye novel come and go. Here is The Dada Caper by Ross H. Spencer. It has every cliché down pat, including rat-tat-tat writing in which paragraphs are seldom more than one sentence. . . . The hero is a private eye who is always tailing the wrong people and hitting the wrong guys. The Dada Caper is wild, shrewd, mad and unexpectedly funny.” —The New York Times
