Moments of passion, periods of discipline, an ongoing thread of determination spanning many years and a promise I had to keep were responsible for these words finally making it here. AUTHOR BIO: Linda Lee was born in Eugene, Oregon-but not yesterday. Her formative years were spent in various parts of Oregon and Hawaii. She is the youngest blood child in a gang of four, with two adopted members added later, who all taught her many things. She was blessed with two blood parents, one soul-parent and one must-have-been-a-karmic-payback. But, that is another story. Linda Lee was educated from the day she was born, not often in a place of formal learning. Her travels have taken her many places and left her with many more to see. She has written poetry since before she could put pen to paper and still writes illegibly. Linda Lee behaves herself in society as a Triage Registered Nurse. She lives in Eugene, again, with her husband, a son, and two cats.
If your child seems indecisive about college, don't read the riot act, read this landmark book instead. College is not the only alternative. A New York Times editor and concerned parent tells you why and helps you to find happy alternatives to starting college before your child is ready. As an educated, committed parent, Linda Lee harbored the usual expectation of a prestigious college degree as the illustrious preface to a top-flight career for her child. Some fifty thousand dollars and several disastrous report cards later, Lee recognized that her seemingly rational expectations were proving far-fetched and that her son was simply not ready for college. Moreover, she was shocked to discover that his experience was not the exception but the rule; only 26 percent of students receive a bachelor's degree within five years. Why, then, are parents led to believe that their children must go to college immediately and that it is the right choice for everyone? If not attending college worked for Bill Gates, Harry S. Truman, Thomas Edison, and William Faulkner, why can't it work for your child and what are your alternatives? Success Without College is a groundbreaking book that reveals the surprising facts of why many bright kids are not suited for college (or at least not right after high school). Lee's accessible, knowledgeable style informs parents why this should be more a source of pride than shame by providing profiles of students and parents from around the country and their creative, positive solutions to the college dilemma. With a college education now costing an average of a hundred thousand dollars, maybe it's time for American parents to reconsider: Do you really need college to succeed?

Author recounts unique personal reactions to the events of 9/11 through spirit-directed drawings PRESCOTT VALLEY, AZ – Days following the events of September 11, 2001, Linda Lee Hack experienced something unexplainable. She felt an overwhelming, involuntary urge to pick up a pencil and draw. Linda’s images were not formed in her own mind, but by her hand, seemingly guided by an external influence. At first, Linda’s images appeared to be demonic in nature, perhaps channeling the evil spirits surrounding the 9/11 attacks. This unpredictable and unexplainable urge to draw lasted for nine months. It’s believed by Linda that her early, more abstract drawings depict man’s earthly sins against God’s word. Later drawings left Linda questioning the reason for this behavior. Was she channeling the spirits surrounding the 9/11 attacks? Or, was it an answer to a prayer request to her deceased great-grandmother about the tribulation period foretold in the Book of Revelations? Or both? “For nine months, I was consumed by this urge to draw,” Linda says. “To this day, I am left puzzled by questions and thoughts about channeling spirits, automatic writing, guardian angels and why this unusual phenomenon occurred to me.” In her book, The Channeling of September 11, 2001, Linda invites readers to interpret for themselves her personal experiences through words and drawings and perhaps, to bring to light their own experiences or emotional and spiritual reactions in the hours, days and months following the attacks of 9/11. “I have struggled with the thoughts and theories about what happened to me,” Linda says. “By putting my story into a narrative and visual account, I hope to reach those who may have had similar experiences and those still seeking answers in dealing with their own conflicts from the events of 9/11.” Linda is donating a portion of the proceeds from her book sales to the Wounded Warrior Project and Tuesday’s Children charities in honor of the losses and sacrifices of their beneficiaries.
The poems in Kiss, Kiss aspire, with feistiness and wit, to isolate, reclaim, memorialize, and reexamine those significant but ordinary longings, daydreams, people, and locations we too-often take for granted. Using the South's lush landscapes as their settings, these poems celebrate family, talk frankly about loss, desire, and healing, mourn for those no longer with us, and find, in the mundane, that which is truly marvelous and transcendent."--BOOK JACKET.

As a man of determination, independence, and masculine pursuits he suddenly becomes blind and his world ends. Pride causes him to abandon the upcoming marriage to Eden Derington and seek medical care in San Francisco. Through an associate he sends a letter to Eden telling her he left Honolulu to find himself again. When he never hears from her again he settles into the belief that he was right all along; a helpless man is a bag of bricks around a woman's neck.

The trauma throws Lily into “amazing” episodes of past-life regression in which she takes on the persona of a young maiden named White Flower, a tribal member of the long-ago builders of Ohio’s Great Serpent Mound. White Flower’s life of thousands of years before reveals to Lily the unexpected path to her own salvation. Given 5 Stars by Readers Favorite, CRADLE OF THE SERPENT brims with “enthralling” journeys into the human psyche, romantic love, archaeology, American Indian history, spinal cord injury, its consequences, and its contemporary treatments, as well as “amazing” sequences of past-life regression, and unimaginable twists and turns in a long-term marriage. 5 STARS FROM READERS’ FAVORITE Author’s Social Sites BOOK REVIEW Reviewed by Sefina Hawke for Readers' Favorite Cradle of the Serpent (A Man and a Woman's Imperfect Love) by Linda Lee Greene is a fictional drama with a theme of dream/time travel and archaeology. This is a book that would appeal most to an audience of young adults and adults who enjoy drama romance novels that are not erotic. Lily Light is an archaeologist who works at the Great Serpent Mound in Ohio. Her work opened her to experiences, knowledge, and beliefs she never knew existed. Psychotherapist Michael Neeson is Lily’s therapist and guide in her dream travels where she becomes a woman known as White Flower. Lily’s life path takes her to heights she never knew existed in her dream travels, yet she also experiences hurt when she discovers her husband’s infidelity. Cradle of the Serpent (A Man and a Woman's Imperfect Love) by Linda Lee Greene is a book with a slower pace, yet the leisurely pace only added to the story instead of detracting from it. I enjoyed the way that Lily Light develops as a character during the course of the book as her husband’s shooting, his paralyzed state, and the discovery of his mistress leave her reeling. The way that she not only recovers, but also throws herself into her dream states that allow her to embrace White Flower, was amazing. I loved the suspense in trying to discover if White Flower was a dream state or if Lily was time traveling. The additional perspective of Michael Neeson provided a nice balance to the story. I also particularly liked that the love scenes were written to be romantic instead of erotic.
