  Growing up in the Deep South of the USA during the tumultuous 1960s and 1970s, Sidney Kate’s early life was marked by turbulence and uncertainty. Born into a complex, blended family, her journey unfolds against a backdrop of racial tension, gender inequality, and intergenerational challenges. 
  Through her collection of stories, Sidney Kate explores coming of age during a time of profound change. She delves into the complexities of family dynamics and the struggles faced by a young woman determined to break free from societal constraints. Set against the often harsh realities of the times, this book brings to life the characteristics that defined each era. 
  As we follow Sidney Kate’s journey, we witness her remarkable resilience in the face of adversity, as she deals with abuse, sexual promiscuity, abortion, and the unique challenges of raising a gifted neurodivergent child. She also negotiates the highs and lows of marriage and divorce—her one constant throughout being her unwavering rebellion against the stifling norms of her time. 
  Sidney Kate’s life serves as an inspiring reminder that there is always room for hope, even in the darkest of times. One’s learning experiences never cease. Together, these stories constitute a poignant exploration of nature versus nurture, from birth to loss, as well as a testament to the indomitable strength of the human spirit.

  Annie Rose Charlotte Key was born on 9th November 1859 in Kensington, London. 
   
  With a privileged background—her father was an admiral, her mother a Lady, Rose began her creative life as a painter before a stab at writing local history settled her into popular fiction. 
   
  Her works were solidly written and often described as having a ‘certain graceful facility’. 
   
  Her marriage to Philip Augustus Champion de Crespigny in 1878 resulted in a family of 4 children and a name of status. 
   
  Rose was a leading member of the Ridley Art Club, the Lyceum Club in Piccadilly, and of the British College of Psychic Science.  Victorian society had a particular fascination with spiritualism and in ‘The Moving Finger’ Rose uses the theme as a background to introduce her popular occult detective Norton Vyse into her series of short stories.  
   
  Rose Champion de Crespigny died on 10th February 1935.  She was 75.

  This book illustrates the powerful effect David Clark´s mother, Jan Clark, had on her son. Her influence began even before David was born. Jan’s pregnancy with David was terrifyingly difficult. Her doctor, due to his grave concerns for Jan’s life, felt compelled to do everything he could to terminate the pregnancy. Amidst these extreme circumstances, Jan made a promise to her unborn child that changed everything! 
  Follow David Clark as he recounts experiences in which his mother kept this promise and led him to Christ. Notwithstanding that foundation in Christ, however, David years later, found himself feeling isolated and abandoned by God when he became 100% disabled and bedridden due to his military service in Iraq. He went from being an award-winning lawyer, a decorated military officer, and an Elder in his church to becoming completely dependent on others. It was only when David began remembering what his mother taught him about Jesus Christ years earlier that he finally found the peace and rest that comes solely through the Lord.
