Set against the stark, untamed backdrop of the Nevada desert, Pendulum is a gripping, emotionally charged family saga that delves deep into the complexities of heritage, identity, and change.
 
At its heart, the novel tells the story of Charles Ellis and his wife, Sally, who are struggling to hold onto their aging family ranch in the semi-arid landscape of western Nevada.
 
This land is more than just a home; it's a living legacy, one that has shaped the Ellis family for generations.
 
But when Charles suffers a health scare, everything begins to unravel.
 
His estranged brother, Sam, returns from the East, only to discover that the family’s once-stable world is crumbling.
 
The next generation—Charles and Sally’s children, Dan and Robin—have left the ranch for urban lives, showing little interest in preserving their family's heritage.
 
Developers are circling, eager to strip the land of its wild beauty and replace it with roads, businesses, and homes, threatening to erase everything the Ellis family has fought to maintain.
 
With tensions running high and the weight of generations bearing down on them, Pendulum explores the complex web of family obligations, sacrifice, and the forces that pull people apart—or bind them together.
 
The novel’s title, symbolized by the family’s heirloom grandmother clock, offers a poignant metaphor: life swings back and forth between the past and future, stability and change.
 
This is a story of endurance, legacy, and the impossible choices that define who we are, and will resonate with readers who love rich, character-driven stories about complicated family relationships, difficult decisions, and the enduring ties to place and tradition.

We all like to think of ourselves as active listeners, open to considering another’s perspective in order to successfully collaborate toward shared goals. Why, then, when we look around, do we see countless examples crying out to the contrary? Why do we so often find ourselves struggling to effectively communicate at work, at home, or in social settings? Why do we struggle to hear and be heard, despite that being precisely what we all desire?

What if there was a simple, yet flexible, format through which we could improve not only our listening skills, but our ability to successfully ask for and get what we want? Perhaps it could even invoke our creativity and imagination, making it a fun experience instead of a dreaded one?

Enter stage right: The Improv Approach.

The Improv Approach takes the principles of improv comedy and applies them to everyday interactions, empowering you to navigate even difficult conversations with an ease that without such a strategy too often proves anything but mutually satisfying, and sometimes simply impossible.

While written primarily with business leaders in mind, Approaching Improv’s relatable, direct technique to teaching the “Improv Approach” makes it an indispensable resource for professionals and non-professionals alike.

Using the Improv Approach, you will learn:

  • The foundational principles of improv comedy, including but not limited to the “yes, and” technique, and how they can be implemented to make you a better boss, employee, family member, and friend.
  • To face your fears so you can successfully and repeatedly put the Improv Approach concepts into practice, even if you’re not a performer.
  • Common communication mistakes most people aren’t aware they’re making and how to solve them.
  • How to increase your empathy and understanding, even when dealing with difficult people and situations.
  • To open the door to healthy communication so the people in your life trust they can tell you the truths you need to hear.

https://www.amazon.com/Robot-Soldier-Multiple-Editions-ebook/dp/B0D9MFM9QN

A lone robot soldier, One Shot, awakens to the aftermath of an apocalyptic war. The only other survivor is a small human child, Amy, whom One Shot’s prime directives obligate him to protect. They form a unique alliance, with One Shot befriending and raising Amy. After several years of living amidst the demolished city ruins, a slightly older Amy decides to “see the world.” Thus ends the Prologue, and the true adventure begins.

As they make their solitary way through a devastated world, the pair become aware of the immense danger on their trail. Although enemy soldiers have all vanished, robotic mutations they call “wolfhounds” are tracking Amy to destroy her. One Shot’s sole directive is to keep her safe. This becomes increasingly difficult as time passes, perhaps more so when they eventually find other humans.

The novel is told solely from the robot’s point of view. One Shot’s constrained perspective accentuates the difference between humans and robots. In contrast, the reader finds distinguishing between the robot’s prime directives and Amy’s human feelings of love and affection impossible. Early readers have responded unanimously in favor of this heartfelt story.
