Описание: President's Award for Best Published Book, 2014, Awarded by the Ozarks Writers League Washed in the Water: Tales from the South offers vignettes of folks living the best they know how as they reach out for redemption. Set between 1950 and 1980, each tale stares at an individual as unique as the humid landscape of the South. Hard lives, daily survival, and lessons about getting on with the business of living reverberate among the characters. ". . . compelling, wide-ranging stories. Hartney brings to mind both Caldwell and Allison, but her voice at last is her own. 'Last Love' is both gritty and warm, and 'The Fig Trees' is deftly nuanced." Robert Cochran, Center for Arkansas and Regional Studies, University of Arkansas "This brief collection of stories deals with such diverse experiences as a river baptism and coon hunting while it embraces emotions of love, jealousy, and altruism. The seven southern tales contain some real gems." Pat Carr, author of One Page at a Time and The Radiance of Fossils "No better voice of the south can be found than Nancy Hartney, with her touching stories of life looked at in a most extraordinary way. Hartney writes about people we can love or despise, but most of all sympathize with and enjoy." WILLA Award-winning author Velda Brotherton
Описание: Would you like to know what you can do, the actions you can take, to prime yourself for a life-changing insight--one that would transform your health, relationships, career, or spiritual life? The AHA Handbook is the first research-based self-help book that teaches readers how to spark these kinds of pivotal realizations. It counters conventional wisdom, which holds that momentous, life-altering AHA s are rare events outside a person's control. Donna Hartney, Ph.D., analyzed 99 published, first-hand accounts of transformational insights. For example, she analyzed how Nelson Mandela, Sandra Oh, Tracy Chevalier, and Norman Vincent Peale experienced powerful AHA s that defined their careers. She analyzed how Nora Ephron, Emily Proctor, Blair Underwood, and Shonda Rhimes, experienced pivotal epiphanies that remade their relationships. She analyzed how Queen Latifah, Josh Hamilton, Maria Shriver, and Eckhart Tolle experienced profound insights that transformed their health and well-being. The AHA Handbook presents the results of that research interwoven with inspirational, real-life stories of life-changing insights and practical advice. The book describes 21 actions readers can take to generate powerful, life-altering realizations in their lives and careers. These actions fall into three phases: prime yourself to live life in a way that attracts pivotal realizations, watch for triggers to notice and leverage life's insight-rich moments, and capture the value to tap the transformational power of an AHA once it arrives.
