With Pen In Hand by Henriette Anne Klauser Pdf

In moments of grief or loss, we often turn to the written word to say what cannot be said aloud. Indeed, directing sadness, rage, or confusion at the page can be tremendously cathartic and liberating. As we express our deepest feelings without reserve in poetry or prose, we feel the power of our words begin to draw out some of the pain in our hearts and replace it with hope.But fears about writing honestly and self-criticism can stand in the way of making use of this powerful therapeutic tool. With Pen in Hand is an inspirational and practical guide to breaking through these roadblocks and to helping one "write to heal." Outlining writing techniques that are best for working through pain and for privately collecting raw emotions--"Writing a Letter of Goodbye," "Interviewing Your Body," "Rapid-Writing," and more--Henriette Klauser shares stories and tips that will help readers gain comfort from what they commit to paper. For the accomplished writer and non-writer alike, With Pen in Hand will help one make use of the kind of expression that in the aftermath of a crisis or loss, can make one whole again.

With Pen in Hand by David Pitzele Pdf

Blood is creeping through the crevices of the grittiest streets of Chicago. Body after body, gang member after gang member as the fog lifts, it is clear there is a serial killer in the midst. The media fire quickly grows from a small local blaze to a roaring inferno of national coverage. An irate mayor’s patience is running thin. The task force assigned to the case needs to solve it quickly before the city is further tarnished and the pressure boils over. As Detectives Jefferson and Hector begin to help unravel the case, a new surprise lurks in the shadows. Could it be a fellow officer is the killer? Whoever it is, he is not afraid to turn his sense of justice on the detectives. Fearing for his life, Jefferson’s wife is begging him to drop the case, the commander is demanding answers yesterday, and the caldron of stress and fear is threatening to tear his world apart. We are left writhing in the mess of emotions wondering if the detectives can solve the case before they become the next victims of the serial killer. Lives are at stake. The entire city is on edge. A nation is fearfully intrigued. And the detective’s wick is nearly burnt out. You will be on edge as the house of cards begins to fall and the book masterfully comes to its chaotic final conclusion.

Insights in California by Maria Theresa Pantaleon Pdf

Insights in California 2003 is the authors way of thinking about the future, recording memories, and coping with the daily stress of adjusting to her new life in America as a newcomer from the Philippines. Culture shock, social adjustment, widening perspective on different subjects, deepening reflections, heightened faith and convictionsthese are some of the topics in this book of poems. Some of them are addresses to real people whom the author got acquainted with or talked with. The style is a marriage of free verse and blank verse though sometimes there is still the attempt to construct patterns of rhythm and rhyme and to follow structure and metrical patterns such as in Haikus on November. In general, however, the writer set herself free from the norms of conservative poetry. And she enjoyed the liberating experience as she did in journalism.

The Christ Child in Medieval Culture by Theresa M. Kenney,Mary Dzon Pdf

The cult of the Christ Child flourished in late medieval Europe across lay and religious, as well as geographic and cultural boundaries. Depictions of Christ's boyhood are found throughout popular culture, visual art, and literature. The Christ Child in Medieval Culture is the first interdisciplinary investigation of how representations of the Christ Child were conceptualized and employed in this period. The contributors to this unique volume analyse depictions of the Christ Child through a variety of frameworks, including the interplay of mortality and divinity, the medieval conceit of a suffering Christ Child, and the interrelationships between Christ and other figures, including saints and ordinary children. The Christ Child in Medieval Culture synthesizes various approaches to interpreting the cultural meaning of medieval religious imagery and illuminates the significance of its most central figure.

The Founder of Opus Dei by Andrés Vázquez de Prada Pdf

This second volume of the three-volume biography of St. Josemaría covers one of the most remarkable periods of his life: from the outbreak of the civil war in 1936 to his departure for Rome in 1946. In Republican Spain fierce anti-Catholic persecution led St. Josemaría to do his priestly work in secret, fully aware that if caught, he would be executed - as were 6000 other priests. This book recounts the saint's dangerous journey across the Pyrenees to the Nationalist zone, where he could exercise his priestly ministry more freely, his tireless labors to counter (with both heroic charity and determination) the slanders that threatened to overwhelm Opus Dei, and more. Here is an unforgettable picture of the saint's activity during the years of crisis that threatened to obliterate his great gift to the church: Opus Dei.

Billy Vera: Harlem to Hollywood by Billy Vera Pdf

(Book). Although he's a showbiz lifer, Billy Vera is cut from a wholly different cloth than his peers. If an artist is measured by their devotion to their craft, Harlem to Hollywood may be the purest treatise on the subject ever produced. All the better, it's also an astounding story. Born into a white, suburban family, Vera fell for black music as a child and started down a winding performer's path that would buoy him the rest of his life. In the sixties, Vera paid his bills by songwriting (for other artists) through the day and playing mobbed up clubs at night. By 1967, as Newark burned on the other side of the Hudson, he and gospel singer Judy Clay, the first interracial duet to perform at the Apollo, tore the house down with a little ditty he wrote for himself: "Storybook Children," a commercial hit produced by Atlantic Records. Through the seventies, popular taste shifted drastically. As blue-eyed soul went out of fashion, Vera, like many other musicians, found himself scrounging for survival gigs, but one crucial difference set him apart: he abstained from the drugs and drink that fueled and eventually claimed so many of his contemporaries. As that decade sputtered to a close, a woman by the name of Dolly Parton recorded Vera's "I Really Got the Feeling" and hit number one on the charts. Riding the tide of this unexpected attention, Vera hightailed it to Los Angeles, formed a new band, Billy and the Beaters, and charted twice before the close of 1981 with songs from their eponymous album recorded live at the Roxy. Five years later, one of these minor hits, "At This Moment," was featured in several episodes of NBC's Family Ties . The song rocketed up the charts and a 42-year-old Vera found himself with his very own number one single. Nine visits to Carson and an American Bandstand appearance later, Vera tasted many other flavors of success: acting both on- and off-camera, producing records, and reissuing his own work. Today, with a star on the Hollywood Walk and Fame and a Grammy in tow, he's finally prepared to share his journey (did we mention that he's also a photographer and music historian who documented every step of career?). To sit down with Billy Vera is to take a personalized tour through nearly fifty years of entertainment history. Won't you come along for the ride?
