Marcia MorganMarcia K. Morgan, Ph.D is the author of a new book, GO! How to Get Going and Achieve your Goals and Dreams at Any Age, a book of women’s empowerment, self-help, and business/goal setting published by The Publishing Circle.

Women share a common epidemic: dream drain. Their goals and dreams are often put on hold or they quietly slip away. They adjust their dreams to fit their circumstances, rather than adjusting their circumstances to fit their dreams.

How do you recover lost goals and dreams? How do you move forward if you are in transition or feeling stuck? The answer can be as simple as selecting and focusing on goal objects (GO!) that become an empowering compass to keep her on the path towards her dreams.

By

Mollie HuntMollie Hunt is the author of a new book, Cat Café, a cozy cat mystery indie-published.

A body is discovered in the cat café, and all the black cats are missing!

Sixty-something cat shelter volunteer Lynley Cannon always finds more trouble than a cat in catnip, but this time it’s not about her. Someone is targeting senior citizens, and when the elderly owner of the Blue Cat café turns up dead, Lynley’s mom could be next.

A black cat rescue, an old photo, an elaborate payback. Does the killer seek justice or vengeance? With death as the objective, the results are the same.
