Mountains have been symbolic since the beginning of time. Our imagination has always given life to their presence. We name them, even feature them in our history and our lives.John Maling has created a poem about and around the life of a mountain that touches the very life that bursts from its core to the inhabitants and majestic surroundings. Each line resonates with the spectacular photography taken by Grant Collier and John Maling.32 inspiring and thoughtful lines enable the reader to climb with the author and photographers from the opening of the poem ... Have you ever held a mountainCupped it gently in your handFelt the texture of its ridgesSifted slow its granite sandBrushed its trees and touched its meadowsHeard its glaciers grinding downFelt wet and rocky muscleUnder flesh of green and brown? ... to the closing. And then, the reader will immediately start from the beginning, savoring the words and photos once again.

Are You an Author? Do You Have a Platform? Do You Know What a Platform Is? Every Author, every Book, needs a Platform. It's the stage, the very foundation of your book and authoring businesses. Platforms don't happen by themselves ... they take a Village to create and you are the Mayor. And yes, authoring and publishing are businesses. Platforms start with a statement of fact: why you wrote the book; why you are the author for it; why you are committed to its theme/topic; and what value you bring to the reader. You do it with Confidence, Clarity, Competence and Commitment. Author and Book Platforms don't happen overnight. They take time, and there are steps--some small, some large and some in-between--that will transition you from just an idea to a book that stars you as the expert or an amazing story-teller.

According to Foreword Reviews 5-Star review "This blend of memoir, social advocacy, and stories about homeless men in Memphis, Tennessee" is "at once deeply personal and broadly drawn... By delving into the reasons behind homelessness of the individuals she meets, PatMorgan presents intriguing conclusions about issues related to mental health, government policy, and our social safety net. Perhaps most compelling, Morgan doesn't hold back about the frustrations of working not just with the system, but with the homeless themselves. Although she's always respectful in her descriptions of their mental issues and addictions, she is transformed from a wide-eyed volunteer to an advocate who sees far more shades of gray in the"concrete killing fields" around her.A political insider who once interned for Senator Al Gore and worked on Bill Clinton's presidential campaign, Morgan settled in Memphis in a bid to save her second marriage and soon found herself volunteering at her church, helping homeless men find shelter and other resources. She soon found the experience to be life-changing and started documenting their stories as a way toward understanding their situations. The author even proposes a"Twelve Steps for Do-Gooders" based on the model followed by Alcoholics Anonymous. This powerful document, delivered with concision, artfully describes the difficult balance that many advocates and social workers must strike in order to be truly helpful. In step four, for example, she writes, "Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of myself and the 'help' I was trying to provide to others, often rendered unrecognizable because of my frustration and anger at the very people I wanted so much to help." Where the book shines the brightest is in Morgan's descriptions of those very individuals.
