I am so happy to announce Out of Control is now available on Amazon! It is free until 4/24/24 with Kindle Unlimited.
The book project was born out of necessity and convenience. Often, after speaking at a conference someone will ask me for the slides or if I have a resource they can share with a friend, mom, sister, coworker, etc. The book seemed like the best way to communicate the story with an emphasis on hope. Self-publishing on Amazon was intimidating until a dear friend mentored me through it. I am convinced she was on divine assignment when we met.
The book has been so well received, the second one called Out of Service will be published sooner than expected-late summer or early fall. Its focus will be on the heroic efforts of the law enforcement, prosecutors, advocates and local resource centers that impacted my rescue. They are all unsung heroes who do not seek credit, however, I think people need to be aware of the vast army of help available to those living with domestic violence.
In the meantime, please remember it doesn’t take reading a book to know the signs of stalking and domestic violence. If you or someone you know is leading less than a full life because of feeling unsafe at home, it is time to take a step toward help. Please don’t wait. Things can escalate quickly and grow Out of Control.
