by S.P. Sarvis In this fictionalized account, Shelley, a young African American, is a single parent, raised on faith. She tries, like all mothers, to obtain the best life she can for herself and her son. But even the most carefully planned life is unpredictable, with many twists and turns, and sometimes they overwhelm us. Shelley’s faith is tested in the same ways many of us are tested, by religion, romance, sex, race relations, drugs, alcohol, dysfunctional family structure, and of course, tragedy. S.P. Sarvis’s story is simple, but the message is timeless and crystal-clear: Get a grip—life ain’t easy! ABOUT THE AUTHOR Employed by a Fortune 500 company in Washington, D.C., S.P. Sarvis holds a B.A. in applied behavioral sciences and an M.S. in human resources management and development. She belongs to several organizations, volunteers for community activities, and is also the founder of a local grassroots organization designed to positively impact African American woman and the community. Sarvis is a living, breathing Shelley, the book’s main character. Her path in life is threefold: to live life to the fullest, to love, and to be loved, Unlike Shelley, Sarvis does just that. She enjoys life, lives with faith, and is surrounded by a host of friends and family in Laurel, Maryland. (2004, paperback, 32 pages) Availability: Usually ships in 2-3 business days. |
