Posted on June 03, 2014 by Bobby Bernshausen | 0 Comments

As Leslie Fabian encouraged her husband, David, a Massachusetts orthopedic surgeon, to become a woman, she was unable to assure him that their marriage would continue. Her new book, My Husband’s A Woman Now, chronicles the couple’s journey as David transitioned from a cross-dressing man to life as a working, full-time woman named Deborah.
 
My Husband’s A Woman Now: A Shared Journey of Transition and Love, is the heartfelt, personal story of a woman who supported her husband’s cross-dressing for twenty years. After watching his devastation each time he returned to male-mode, Leslie realized in 2009 that a gender transition was vital to her spouse’s happiness, perhaps even his survival. Her book tells of supporting David’s transition to Deborah as she grieved the loss of her male partner.
 
Candace Semigran, author of One Minute Self Esteem, praises Ms. Fabian’s story saying it’s “...a reminder to everyone who reads it, of what is truly important...to remember life is a journey and a continual process of awakening our hearts.”
 
“This book will be...an unintended primer on what it takes to maintain and grow a deeply intimate relationship against many odds,” adds Niela Miller, author of Counseling in Genderland.
 
Leslie Hilburn Fabian is an Independent Clinical Social Worker, in Massachusetts, a psychotherapist, public speaker, ecumenical minister, wife, mother, and step-mother. Her marriage to Deborah continues happily after twenty-three years.

From Wall Street to the Bottom of a Bottle Then Into Salvation — New Autobiography Helps Readers Face Challenges of Life

Posted on May 29, 2014 by Bobby Bernshausen | 0 Comments

The Chronicles of Martin is a collection of three books detailing Martin Adams’ ascent in business, his descent into alcoholism, and his subsequent salvation and sanctification through faith. While the books regard the life and struggles of the author, they are written to help others who are battling with addictions, questioning their life, or struggling with other internal demons. The first book covers Adams’ East Texas upbringing, his education at Texas A&M and the University of Colorado, and his ascent and eventual downward spiral in the worlds of oil, politics and money. Book two recounts his painful struggle with alcoholism and how God intervened. The final installment is comprised of essays which explore the subject of faith; philosophical issues that have puzzled mankind for centuries; and offer observations about creation, the universe, and eternal life. Taken as a whole, The Chronicles of Martin beautifully illustrates how God worked in the life and ultimate salvation of a man. Educated as a chemical engineer at Texas A&M University and the University of Colorado, Martin used his strong analytical skills and experience in the oil industry to polish his business acumen and become a professional builder of business. He currently lives in College Station, Texas, with his wife.

The Chronicles of Martin is available in softcover (ISBN 978-1-62137-464-0) and eBook (ISBN 978-1-62137-465-7) at Virtualbookworm.com, Amazon.com, and Barnesandnoble.com.

New Children’s Book Carries Themes of Prohibition

Posted on May 29, 2014 by Bobby Bernshausen | 0 Comments

Author Martha Wolfe takes the complexity of the prohibition and condenses it into the new children’s book, The Little Seed. This simple children’s book carries a much more complicated underlying message about prohibition and man’s inability to control God’s creations. Wolfe’s inspiration came in the form of the court battle between the Lakota Nation and the U.S. government, as the government invaded the Lakota’s land and destroyed the crops, their source of economic advancement. The next season, the crops not only grew back, but also multiplied. Readers will get carried away on this short adventure about what happens when man tries to cut down a determined plant. This simple, yet revolutionary story tests man’s ability to control beings and resources.

The Little Seed is available in softcover (ISBN 978-1-62137-488-6) and ebook format (ISBN 978-1- 62137-489-3) from Virtualbookworm.com, Amazon.com, and Barnesandnoble.com. This book can also be ordered from most bookstores around the United States and United Kingdom. More information can be found at the author’s official website, littleseedbook.com.
