A life built upon truth is often a life of challenge, when much is at stake. The life of Admiral William L. Schachte, Jr., navigates the waters of truth in a world where shoals of malfeasance are all too common. From Vietnam Swift Boats--to the Black Sea Incident with the Soviet Russians--to the infamous Tailhook Scandal--one man of character connects all three events. He fought in America's most controversial war, advised our national leaders on international maritime law, and insisted upon proper military decorum throughout his beloved U.S. Navy. Political historians will validate that Admiral Schachte likely changed the outcome of a U.S. presidential election. He did so by speaking truth to power. It was his duty, as he saw it, and not a choice. Our republic's very health depends upon a commitment to the truth.

"Keep the race pure." What this biblical admonition originally meant. Who was Lilith? Who were the "daughters of men?" - And why did the extraterrestrials want to destroy them? The proof of the reality of extraterrestrials lies as much in their MISTAKES and FAILURES as in what their intervention achieved, and they made some whoppers! - The Enuma Elish was the original version of Genesis. Why was it edited? - Why there will ALWAYS be homosexual and lesbian humans, and how the extraterrestrials are responsible. WHY THEY ARE HERE, and much, much more.

Fading Image focuses on the day to day feelings of a daughter who had no answers in the beginning. As time goes on in the dialogue of the book you will see my growth; emotionally, physically, and spiritually. You will be aware of the love between a mother and a daughter. You will experience love in all areas of life. I will try and answer questions you have if you have an Alzheimer’s sufferer in your life. I will try and guide you through the first steps, second steps and the life after the sufferer has passed. It was not an easy journey for my mom and myself. It was however the most learning experience in my life, the most spiritual, the most telling. Alzheimer’s is a horrific, horrible disease. I don’t even have enough adjectives to describe its intensity on oneself. It can be, at times, sheer torture. Reading my book will help you to laugh at the most disgusting things, help you to realize some things just really don’t matter, and that you will live through this. I promise. I have often said I am not writing Fading Image for fame or fortune. I am writing it so no one will have to feel the way I did when first being told “Your mom is mentally incompetent” … Don’t ever feel alone, ever. Read the book, write down your feelings, feel the love while experiencing our journey, mine and moms. If my book helps you in any way, then I am blessed, that is my fame and fortune. Alzheimer’s versus love. The winner - LOVE.

Parenting & Relationships

For Sammy, Jon, and Ben, school ending early was the beginning of a roller-coaster ride of emotional and dangerous physical trials. This coming-of-age novel begins with the start of the Civil War—the bombing of Fort Sumter. While trying to understand the possible ramifications of war, the three boys stumble upon something magical: a treasure map made by none other than Blackbeard the Pirate. The trio, along with a friend named Lucas, set out on a journey leading them across the state of South Carolina and into the home turf of the infamous Blackbeard, where they aim to accomplish two goals: successfully attain the necessary supplies for Jon and Sammy’s parents’ plantation, and find the mysterious treasure by following a cryptic map. Both goals must be accomplished without the boys being discovered by Yankee troops and looters who would gladly take their things “in the name of the South.” Each boy is challenged physically, mentally, and emotionally as they figure out how life really works and as they struggle to race against time, the elements, and the war.

In Abby Lang’s case, this quest is complicated by the fact that she was adopted at four months of age and has no knowledge of her birth family. Abby leads a life that, by most accounts, would appear to be very fulfilling. She earns a college degree, marries her college sweetheart, and lives with Matt and their three children in the house of her dreams. Yet all along the way, uncertainties about her own identity and the nature of her birth family prevent her from feeling truly happy and satisfied. Abby’s discovery that their new neighbor, Kathryn, had worked for the adoption agency that placed Abby propels Abby on a search for the truth about her birth family. This search carries her on a whirlwind of emotions and in due course, the discovery of her birth family’s history. All, however, is not as it first appears. What new insights will be revealed? How will they change Abby? Will Searching for Abby finally lead to the peace and fulfillment that she seeks?
