Some Day You'll Thank Me for This: The Official Southern Ladies' Guide to Being a ''Perfect'' Mother - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Tand we do—every day. Just for starters, we wouldn’thave had the material for our books without Ann Gayden Calland Julia Morgan Hall Hays, our wonderful Southern mothers.We miss them every day, and, whenever we think we might beturning into them, we thank our lucky stars. Both were greatDelta conversationalists, and both gave the lie to William ButlerYeats’ contention that souls are had only by those who are “notentirely beautiful.” They were belles of every ball and quietlycourageous—and they knew all the gossip. (P.S. We never sit onstrange commode seats or say s-t-i-n-k.)We can’t thank our agent Gail Ross enough—without Gailwhat we have come to jokingly refer to as our “pastel trilogy”(our three “Southern lady books” have pastel covers) would notvAcknowledgmentsexist. Gail shaped and sold the idea and has supported usthroughout the process.We have also been fortunate to work with a great team atHyperion. We especially thank Leslie Wells for her deft touchwith prose and because, a Virginian transplanted to New York,she still speaks Southernese—what more could we ask? Well,one more thing you get in Leslie is an editor who is consider-ate of authors and gets back to you so quickly you think she’sable by some mystical means to read your copy almost beforeyou’ve hit the “send” button. Anybody who writes for a livingknows how much this means.We are indebted to a host of friends and relatives who sharedstories about their mothers and allowed us to use their treasuredrecipes; we must also thank Gayden’s witty nephew Hugh Dick-son Gayden Miller for essential help with the sidebars.We originally considered making a list of great Southernmothers we have known, mothers of our friends, mostly, but werealized this was too fraught with peril—we inevitably wouldleave out somebody whose charm and kindness has nourishedus. So let us just say a general thanks to Southern mothers wehave know
Words That Work, Revised, Updated Edition: It's Not What You Say, It's What People Hear - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: This is the part where most authors describe their efforts as a “labor oflove” and then list all the special people who “made this book possible.”I can’t. The truth is, this was the single most difficult task I haveundertaken—and it ensured that I did not get a decent night’s sleep forthe past year.The person most responsible for my lack of fitful rest is my agent,Lorin Rees, from whom I mistakenly took a call on a rare Sunday whenI actually wasn’t working eight hours. He convinced me to use that af-ternoon to write up a book proposal that somehow he managed to sell atexactly the minimum amount I was willing to accept. He has never re-ceived a pleasant e-mail from me during this entire process. At least hemade some money out of it.Next in line is Jonathan Karl, who has spent the last half decade end-lessly nagging me into writing this text. He doesn’t know this but on sev-eral occasions during the more stressful periods I actually thought abouthaving Dr. Kevorkian pay him a visit. I have to be careful not to say any-thing bad about him: He’s one of the best reporters in Washington, D.C.,and he’s liable to go out and dig up dirt on me.

Love You More - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Who do you love?It‟s a question anyone should be able to answer. A question that defines a life, creates afuture, guides most minutes of one‟s days. Simple, elegant, encompassing.Who do you love?He asked the question, and I felt the answer in the weight of my duty belt, the constrictiveconfines of my armored vest, the tight brim of my trooper‟s hat, pulled low over my brow. Ireached down slowly, my fingers just brushing the top of my Sig Sauer, holstered at my hip.“Who do you love?” he cried again, louder now, more insistent.My fingers bypassed my state-issued weapon, finding the black leather keeper that heldmy duty belt to my waist. The Velcro rasped loudly as I unfastened the first band, then thesecond, third, fourth. I worked the metal buckle, then my twenty pound duty belt, complete withmy sidearm, Taser, and collapsible steel baton released from my waist and dangled in the spacebetween us.“Don‟t do this,” I whispered, one last shot at reason.He merely smiled. “Too little, too late.”“Where‟s Sophie? What did you do?”“Belt. On the table. Now.”“No.”“GUN. On the table. NOW!”In response, I widened my stance, squaring off in the middle of the kitchen, duty belt stillsuspended from my left hand. Four years of my life, patrolling the highways of Massachusetts,swearing to defend and protect. I had training and experience on my side.I could go for my gun. Commit to the act, grab the Sig Sauer, and start shooting.Sig Sauer was holstered at an awkward angle that would cost me precious seconds. Hewas watching, waiting for any sudden movement. Failure would be firmly and terribly punished.Who do you love?He was right. That‟s what it came down to in the end. Who did you love and how muchwould you risk for them?“GUN!” he boomed. “Now, dammit!”I thought of my six-year-old daughter, the scent of her hair, the feel of her skinny armswrapped tight around my neck, the sound of her voice as I tucked her in bed each night. “Loveyou, Mommy,” she always whispered.Love you, too, baby. Love you.His arm moved, first tentative stretch for the suspended duty belt, my holstered weapon.One last chance …I looked my husband in the eye. A single heartbeat of time.Who do you love?I made my decision. I set down my trooper‟s belt on the kitchen table.And he grabbed my Sig Sauer and opened fire.آیا کتاب مورد نظر هنوز بر روی سایت قرار نگرفته است؟ جای نگرانی نیست! کافی است بر روی گزینه سفارش کتاب کلیک کرده و درخواست خود را ثبت کنید. در کمتر از چند ساعت کتاب شما را آماده خواهیم کرد.
