By: Shirley Burke Oaks

The short stories captured on these pages are snippets of a well-lived life. I gathered information like a thief through the years and then one lovely and sunny day, I put pen to paper, filled my mouth with ink and spat it all on paper. What fun I had with these, my precious little stories. I have a Blue Million more to write.

The Life and Times of James W. Shirley Sr. You Can Get There from Here

By: Jim Shirley Sr.

In the small town of Harrison City, Pennsylvania, Jim Shirley began his life surrounded by family and community members. It didn¿t matter that they didn¿t have electricity, used a galvanized steel washtub for bathing, and had an outhouse for other necessities. A loving and caring mother, older siblings, and a home built of love were the stepping stones to a self made man. As Jim grows older, he learns what he wants to do in life, how to create a family of his own, and how to draw the most out of what life has to offer a person. After becoming a licensed funeral director in 1959, he was employed in the Pittsburgh area. Later, he purchased a home under unusual circumstances in North Huntingdon Township, Pennsylvania. As a budding funeral director he inadvertently became a community leader in the Lions International organization and, presented his speaking skills, he showed us what it means to bring a new meaning to life and enjoy every moment of it with the same wondrous awe we had as children.

Love a La Carte

By: Dr. Shirley Jordan Bailey

This is not a "once upon a time" book. Life has been a fight. Each self-contained chapter is packed with revealing episodes of an extraordinary life. It is a sharing of her marriage, career, and children, and how love and sabotage lived as partners. In this book, I reflect on the life long friendships that sustained me through the years, and the world travel that has been integral in the enjoyment and enrichment of eight of Shirley's dearest friends. Portions of this book read like a travel log from the Carribean islands to the Great Barrier Reefs of Australia and the capitals of Europe. From the Great Wall of China to the Wailing Wall of Jerusalem, Shirley has shared meaningful memories with her friends. The book highlights her extraordinary children and their own careers as Ivy League trailblazers, as well as their lives and accomplishments. Also included are love letters to her amazing eight grandchildren, whose careers and ambitions span globally due to their early exposure to world travel. Between the anecdotes of her career and family life, the author shares "witticisms" of her parents and grandparents, favorite quotes, songs and humorous stories that are sure to leave you smiling. Also included are perspectives on challenges like Waiting, Electronic Devices, and even a day she overslept. This book shares the power of a positive attitude and is sure to stay on your nightstand as inspiring reading when faced with a need to overcome or persevere.

“A Quickie: Shirley’S 5/5/5”

By: Shirley D. Minter

I kept this little recipe book simple, with most of the ingredients readily available in your nearby grocery stores. There are some food that are on the Dirty Dozen list (food that may have a high level of pesticides), and for this reason, I have recommended organic. However, if organic is not affordable or unavailable, no problem, use locally grown products. Remember, fresh is the best.

The Letters of Shirley Jackson

By: Shirley Jackson

A bewitchingly brilliant collection of never-before-published letters from the renowned author of “The Lottery” and The Haunting of Hill House NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY KIRKUS REVIEWS • “This biography-through-letters gives an intimate and warm voice to the imagination behind the treasury of uncanny tales that is Shirley Jackson’s legacy.”—Joyce Carol Oates Shirley Jackson is one of the most important American authors of the last hundred years and among our greatest chroniclers of the female experience. This extraordinary compilation of personal correspondence has all the hallmarks of Jackson’s beloved fiction: flashes of the uncanny in the domestic, sparks of horror in the quotidian, and the veins of humor that run through good times and bad. i am having a fine time doing a novel with my left hand and a long story—with as many levels as grand central station—with my right hand, stirring chocolate pudding with a spoon held in my teeth, and tuning the television with both feet. Written over the course of nearly three decades, from Jackson’s college years to six days before her early death at the age of forty-eight, these letters become the autobiography Shirley Jackson never wrote. As well as being a bestselling author, Jackson spent much of her adult life as a mother of four in Vermont, and the landscape here is often the everyday: raucous holidays and trips to the dentist, overdue taxes and frayed lines of Christmas lights, new dogs and new babies. But in recounting these events to family, friends, and colleagues, she turns them into remarkable stories: entertaining, revealing, and wise. At the same time, many of these letters provide fresh insight into the genesis and progress of Jackson’s writing over nearly three decades. The novel is getting sadder. It’s always such a strange feeling—I know something’s going to happen, and those poor people in the book don’t; they just go blithely on their ways. Compiled and edited by her elder son, Laurence Jackson Hyman, in consultation with Jackson scholar Bernice M. Murphy and featuring Jackson’s own witty line drawings, this intimate collection holds the beguiling prism of Shirley Jackson—writer and reader, mother and daughter, neighbor and wife—up to the light.
