DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt's not often that someone stumbles into entrepreneurship and ends up reviving a community and starting a national economic-reform movement. But that's what happened when, in 1983, Judy Wicks founded the White Dog Café on the first floor of her house on a row of Victorian brownstones in West Philadelphia. After helping to save her block from demolition, Judy grew what began as a tiny muffin shop into a 200-seat restaurant-one of the first to feature local, organic, and humane food. The restaurant blossomed into a regional hub for community, and a national powerhouse for modeling socially responsible business. Good Morning, Beautiful Business is a memoir about the evolution of an entrepreneur who would not only change her neighborhood, but would also change her world-helping communities far and wide create local living economies that value people and place as much as commerce and that make communities not just interesting and diverse and prosperous, but also resilient. Wicks recounts a girlhood coming of age in the sixties, a stint working in an Alaska Eskimo village in the seventies, her experience cofounding the first Free People store, her accidental entry into the world of restauranteering, the emergence of the celebrated White Dog Café, and her eventual role as an international leader and speaker in the local-living-economies movement. Her memoir traces the roots of her career - exploring what it takes to marry social change and commerce, and do business differently. Passionate, fun, and inspirational, Good Morning, Beautiful Business explores the way women, and men, can follow both mind and heart, do what's right, and do well by doing good.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCallen Michaels and Andrew Manne first meet at a wedding in 1990 and fall madly in love. She is a freelance writer and artist. He is a stylist for a high-end fashion magazine in Vancouver, British Columbia. Seven years later, on March 30, 1997, Andrew commits suicide. Two days later, Callen is brutally raped. This is their tragic love story. But even after these two life-changing events, Callen is able to start over. This compelling novel is loosely based on author Sandra Leigh Savage's life. Her husband's suicide prompted her to write the Together Forever series in the hopes it would help others who have experienced the devastation of suicide. After coming out of the darkness following her late husband's death, Sandra Leigh was inspired to write a love story between two people who come together, but are ripped apart when Callen finds Andrew dead from suicide. "It is in this story that I dedicate this book to my late husband, Andrew Michael Savage, who committed suicide on March 30, 1997." About the Author Sandra Leigh Savage says, "People don't like to talk about suicide, but this subject needs to be heard again from another perspective. Mine. I am a survivor of suicide. I believe that my life was spared and I was needed here to share this story of heartbreak and deep sadness. I want to put a name to suicide; my husband's, Andrew Michael Savage. It took many years of recovery for me to wake up again and to start a new life." She wants to show others how to move on and begs readers: "Hear my message, hear Andrew's message. Please, choose life over suicide." She lives in Burnaby, British Columbia. Headshot photographer: Kasha Raelaina Savage Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/SandraLeighSavage

DOWNLOAD EBOOK“You done lived a tough life, boy, and I know I’m part responsible for that. I ain’t askin’ you to excuse me or forgive me. Just know I did the best I knew to do. I was just tryin’ to make you tough enough to deal with the world. To stand tall among men, I knew you had to be strong and have yo’ own mind.” “You were preparing me for war, Grandfather.” Guy Johnson, the author of the critically acclaimed debut Standing at the Scratch Line, continues the Tremain family saga. Jackson St. Clair Tremain hasn’t spoken to his grandfather King in nearly twenty years. Disgusted by the violence and bloodlust that seemed to be his grandfather’s way of life, Jackson chose to distance himself from King and live a simpler life. But now King is gravely ill, and his impending death places Jackson’s life—as well as those of his family and friends—in jeopardy. Reluctantly, Jackson travels to Mexico to see King. But after a brief reconciliation, his grandfather is assassinated, and Jackson suspects that his grandmother Serena may have had a hand in it. Jackson takes control of King’s organization, and as he does, he reflects on the summers he spent in Mexico as a child and the lessons he learned there at the knee of his strong-willed, complex grandfather. In Echoes of a Distant Summer, Guy Johnson introduces us to a new hero, Jackson St. Clair Tremain, who learns that, like his grandfather, he must be willing to protect those he loves—at all costs.
