  The Seed - A Survivor’s...

  “You don’t just survive. You transform.” 
  The Seed is the first book in The Bloom Series — a bold, genre-defying collaboration between two women reclaiming their stories and offering a lifeline to others. 
  Co-authored by Adeline Ward, an Australian-American actress, writer, and storyteller rooted in healing and truth and Mad Paraluman, a Filipina-American U.S. Navy veteran, immigrant, and survivor of domestic violence and systemic harm. This book is both a mirror and a schematic — designed for anyone navigating trauma, identity, and self-reclamation. 
  Through poetic prose, raw vulnerability, and quiet rebellion, The Seed blends memoir, cultural reflection, and practical tools. From the silence of abuse to the roar of aircraft hangars, Adeline and Mad’s stories intersect at the edges of survival and bloom into truth, sisterhood, and radical softness. 
  This is not just a story — it is a becoming. 
  Whether you are recovering from rupture or learning to hold space for another, The Seed offers tools and reflection rooted in community care, shared language, and co-healing. 
  You are not broken. You are blooming. And you don’t have to do it alone — if you dare to build the community you need.

  The 1980s and 1990s, the height of the AIDS crisis in the United States, was decades ago now, and many of the stories from this time remain hidden: A Catholic nun from a small Midwestern town packs up her life to move to New York City, where she throws herself into a community under assault from HIV and AIDS. A young priest sees himself in the many gay men dying from AIDS and grapples with how best to respond, eventually coming out as gay and putting his own career on the line. A gay Catholic with HIV loses his partner to AIDS and then flees the church, focusing his energy on his own health rather than fight an institution seemingly rejecting him. 
   
   
   
  Set against the backdrop of the HIV and AIDS epidemic of the late twentieth century and the Catholic Church's crackdown on gay and lesbian activists, journalist Michael O'Loughlin searches out the untold stories of those who didn't look away, who at great personal cost chose compassion. 
   
   
   
  This is one journalist's—gay and Catholic himself—compelling picture of those quiet heroes who responded to human suffering when so much of society told them to look away. These pure acts of compassion and mercy offer us hope and inspiration as we continue to confront existential questions about what it means to be Americans, Christians, and human beings responding to those most in need.

  All children lie. But when your child lies to you, it can feel like a personal betrayal. 
   
      
   
  Lying is a healthy and inevitable part of child development. But when do lies become a problem? In this book, psychologist Victoria Talwar, director of the Talwar Child Development Lab at McGill University, presents practical, science-based strategies to address lying and foster truthfulness in children, from early childhood to the teenage years. 
   
    
    
  Kids need to learn what honesty looks like in different social situations, and also how to tell the truth in ways that do not hurt others' feelings—a complicated task! Parents and caregivers will learn how to use stories and examples to have proactive conversations with children about honesty, and how to model honest behavior for children. Talwar shows listeners how to respond effectively when a child lies (as they inevitably will). Backed by years of psychological research, this common-sense, practical guide reveals which parenting strategies promote truthfulness in children—and which ones don't.
