The Half-Known Life: What Matters Most When You’re Running Out of Time

About The Half-Known Life: What Matters Most When You’re Running Out of Time:

“I’m going down now,” I said to a young woman a few seconds before the darkness-my first cardiac arrest. As I returned to work as a behavioral coach, it became maddening to hear about all-consuming, everyday problems and misguided priorities while I fought to merely remain conscious.

The Half-Known Life challenges conventional thinking of success, identity, and personal change. Most often, truly profound change happens following events that shake someone to their core-a car accident, death of a family member, or cardiac arrest that pulls them into a moment of clarity. Priorities change when time becomes precious. Problems look different when you have no energy left to give them. Why wait until you’re burnt out or for a life-changing event to occur before getting real about your life? Who are you when all of the accolades and accomplishments are gone? What does how you manage your time say about what’s important to you-about what matters most? Get out of your head and get into your life, before it slips away.

Cloudburst County

About Cloudburst County:

When romance and crime cross paths in a small town, dark secrets come to light and people’s lives are suddenly and ruthlessly rearranged. It was no different with Rena Bjorkline and the generations that followed her.

In 1936, Rena witnessed Beulah Marsoni stroll into bachelor John’s life and claim his as her own. When Beulah willingly shared excruciating secrets of romance and suspense, Rena found herself at the intersection of solid faith and heart-breaking fear. She could handle hard farm work, family tragedy, and the devastating poverty of the Great Depression, but this dreadful news was the final straw. It was time to run.

A generation later, Buckthorn Bluff’s dream couple, beautiful waitress Lucinda Rae and charming champion Benny Lee were harboring their own secrets. No one must know the hidden trauma and evil forces of their lives.

They were locked in prisons of shame and fear, and their happy veneer didn’t fool anyone. Sooner or later, something had to be done to escape this terrifying existence.

Family and friends sensed Lucinda Rae’s life was in turmoil, and they had to act before it was too late. Would their simple efforts make any difference in her tumultuous life?

Dark and Silent Office: A Digital Accessibility Guidebook for Inclusive Communication in the Workplace by Stephanie Warlick

Dark and Silent Office: A Digital Accessibility Guidebook for Inclusive Communication in the Workplace by Stephanie Warlick

Ask anyone and they would agree that technology is a necessary component of the workplace. But have you ever relied on technology and it failed — just before your deadline?
Think about having that experience all day, every day while attempting to meet your daily work objectives.

There are approximately 37.5 million adults in the US with trouble hearing and another 50.18 million adults with some degree of vision loss.

The fight for equity in the workplace has very much focused on gender and race, and while these steps are completely necessary, visually-disabled and hearing-disabled individuals are a minority group that is significantly overlooked.

Jenny sat in a meeting where the manager was detailing the quarterly financial review. As they discussed the colors of charts and diagrams, Jenny, being colorblind, couldn’t keep up. She left the meeting exhausted and deflated.

Mark was typing away on his computer when the team leader informed the office about an important update. If it hadn’t been for his colleague advising him, Mark, being deaf, would have missed out on this information.

Nobody intentionally excludes the visually and hearing impaired. But that’s not enough in the year 2024 where the benefits of inclusivity have been demonstrated time and time again.

But there is a huge gap between wanting an inclusive workplace and actually achieving it. It’s a gap that you find yourself standing in right now!

The workplace is buzzing in a digital era and overall, technology is closing so many gaps across the industries. At the same time, it’s sadly making the gap bigger for those with sight and hearing difficulties.

The first step to standing in this gap is to transform your organization into one that is digitally accessible, particularly in the realm of document accessibility that is utilized in daily communication with coworkers and customers!

That’s not going to be easy if you have no idea where to start!

Hell for Hire by Rachel Aaron

About Featured Book: Hell for Hire by Rachel Aaron

The Crew
A hulked-out wrath demon who eats gamer rage and loves cats, a shapeshifting lust demon who enjoys their food a bit too much, and a void demon who doesn’t see the point of any of this. They’re not the sort of mercenaries you hire on purpose, but Bex wouldn’t trust her life to anyone else.
Ever since the ancient Mesopotamian king Gilgamesh decided death wasn’t for him, killed the gods, and conquered the afterlife, times have been rough for a free demon. But the denizens of the Nine Hells aren’t the quitting sort, and Bex and her team have been choking a living out of the Eternal King’s lackeys for years. It’s not honest work, but when Heaven itself declares you a non-person, you smash-and-grab what you can get.
This next gig looks like more of the same…until Bex meets the client.

The Job
Adrian Blackwood is a witch with a problem. His family has skirted the edges of King Gilgamesh’s ire for centuries, but thanks to a decision he made as a child, Adrian is personally responsible for putting his entire coven in Heaven’s crosshairs.
Determined to set things right, Adrian drags his broom, caldron, and talking cat thousands of miles across the country to Seattle where he can fight the Eternal King’s warlocks without bringing the rest of his family into the fray. But witchcraft–like all crafts–takes time, and if the warlocks catch
him before his spells are ready, he’s dead. So Adrian does what any professional witch would do and hires a team of mercenaries to keep the warlocks off his back. He didn’t expect to get demons, but when you’re already on the killing-edge of Heaven’s bad side, what’s a bit more fuel on the fire?

Sometimes, you get more than you paid for.
Neither Adrian nor Bex knew what to expect when they signed their contract, but witch-plus-demon turns out to be a match made in the Hells. With this much chaos at their fingertips, even impossible dreams start to come back into reach, because Bex wasn’t always a mercenary. She used to be the Eternal
King of Heaven’s biggest nightmare, and now that she’s got a witch in her corner, it’s time to put the old magics back on the field and show Adrian Blackwood just how much hell he’s hired.
