Social Security Basics - The...

Devin Carroll

"Social Security Basics" is a comprehensive yet accessible guide that demystifies the complex world of Social Security benefits. Author Devin Carroll, drawing from his extensive experience helping distressed and confused clients, has created this essential resource to help readers confidently navigate the Social Security system. 
The book is strategically divided into two main parts. The first part covers the fundamental aspects of Social Security that are crucial for everyone to understand. The second part specifically addresses the unique rules and considerations for public servants, with detailed explanations of the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO). 
Carroll's motivation for writing this book stemmed from witnessing firsthand how the complicated and verbose nature of Social Security rules often left people frustrated and potentially missing out on their rightful benefits. Through years of studying, speaking engagements, and writing about Social Security, he realized that most questions could be answered through a solid grasp of the basic principles.

The Sacred Way

Stephen L. Robertson

The Sacred Way is not a map. It is not a method. It is a transmission. 
  
In this companion to The Sacred Choice, Stephen L. Robertson offers a luminous reflection for the soul ready to embody what it has already remembered. Drawing from mystical insight, spiritual awakening, and the quiet wisdom of stillness, The Sacred Way invites readers beyond the threshold of realization—into a life of integration, gentleness, and divine simplicity. 
  
This masterwork does not teach—it mirrors. Through poetic clarity and sacred resonance, it unveils the quiet radiance of what happens after the spark: when ego dissolves, when becoming ends, and when the flame no longer flickers but simply burns. 
  
You are not searching anymore. 
You are becoming the field. 
  
This is not the beginning of your journey. 
This is the return.

Colette - My Literary Mother

Michele Roberts

The power of Colette's work comes from its modernist storytelling. 
 
 
 
Colette was a pioneering, groundbreaking modernist writer, but has not always had her originality and worth recognized in Britain. Her work provocatively uses unstable narratives, gaps, silences, fairytale, mythical tropes, and sensual evocations of childhood, sex, and landscapes. 
 
 
 
In this book, Michèle Roberts examines how Colette invents new forms to express her unsettling content on desire, perversion, aging, and different forms of love. Delving into four key texts, Roberts explores Colette's willingness to break open taboos about older woman and desire, as well as hidden and forbidden aspects of human longings and pleasures. 
 
 
 
Through these re-readings, Roberts discovers that Colette's work is even more entrancing, more disturbing, and more original than she first thought.
