Jill awakens in the mental health unit of Norfolk General hospital to the realization that she has failed once again to end her own life. To her way of thinking, it was unfortunate that the EMTs had managed to revive her from the overdose of powerful prescription drugs she had swallowed the night before. Her call to the suicide hotline would be considered by some a cry for help, but she just didn’t want to die alone.

How did it come to this? What has led her into this house of mirrors? How will she find her way out? Follow Jill’s journey into a world of counselors, doctors, hospitals, and psycho-pharmaceuticals and, ultimately, to the therapist who saves her. Please Don’t Ask Me Why is a powerful tale of one woman’s fight against the forces of depression and a tribute to the man who taught her the artful tools for her survival. $2.99 on Kindle.

Dogs and cats have conquered our hearts for countless reasons, the most important of these being our profound need to constantly look for ways to look at ourselves through different eyes. Nature’s eyes, our little friends’ eyes, look at us in such an innocent and pristine way, a way so deeply etched inside us that it moves and overwhelms us. It is in these eyes we see and recognize parts of our inner self. Animals, without realizing it – but we haven’t realized it either – have carried the tremendous burden of helping us understand our self, and have succeeded where we have failed: in seeing humans as part of nature and paying attention to the life lessons nature offers. $0.99 on Kindle.

A profound true, raw and honest story. Nixon was born with Gauchers Type 2 disease, which is extremely rare. When he was diagnosed, the doctors were able to count on their hands the number of children in the United States who currently have it. It is the lack of an enzyme that your body needs to survive. Without it, it causes children to become disabled and not live past the age of 3 years old. Nixon now makes the enzyme on his own and just turned 4. This story occurs in a world that most people are not affected by, which is why it is so important to share Nixon’s story to show how love and determination makes all the difference in the world.

You will go through so many emotions reading this book that you will feel you are right there with them. This book will be impossible to put down!! $4.99 on Kindle.

This is non-Academic, practical, useful theory for living-room pickers and working musicians who want to be able to think coherently about music in order to ask questions and understand answers about the music they want to play.
The stuff in GBT is about understanding The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, Cole Porter and Duke Ellington, The Grateful Dead and Vampire Weekend.
It’s NOT about analyzing Bach Fugues… but you’ll be able to if you want to.
It was written for the 99% of musicians who are NOT music majors by an incorrigible honky-tonk guitar player who plays by ear … but understands the relevant vocabulary and what’s sensible and useful for MOST players.

“A full course of study under one cover, “Garage Band Theory” is impressively informed and informative, practical, insightful, and should be considered an essential resource for any aspiring musician.
The chapter quizzes (and answer keys) make it a practical guide for all music teachers and home-schooling parents who have rudimentary skills on any instrument.
Exceptionally ‘user-friendly’ in organization and presentation “Garage Band Theory” is very highly recommended for both community and academic library Music Theory & Instruction collections.”
James A Cox – Midwest Book Review

“In Garage Band Theory Duke Sharp has delivered to us the anti-textbook.
Apparently inspired less by the tired approaches of endless theory books on the local music store rack, than by, say, Dave Barry’s delightful drollery, GBT reads at moments like a coffee shop conversation twixt rock band sidemen at a restaurant after a questionable gig, complete with puns both good and bad, musician ‘inside humor’ and self-demeaning laments.
The genius within the madness is that after finally acquiescing to the har-har humor, the reader will find himself actually learning a lot about music along the way.
More to the point, learning how band-stand musicians THINK about music.
There has forever been a gap between the way music theorist negotiate their topic and what a pianist is thinking about when he glances at an upcoming C#7#11. (The truth is, he may still be thinking about the joke he heard last break.)
The gap between traditional theorists and the musicians who play mostly “by ear” is even wider.
GBT comes very close to bridging those gaps.” Craig Hall

“It’s a fresh approach, a “we’re in this all together” vector not often found in theory texts. Duke Sharp makes a solid hit with a work aimed at players that want a comprehensive manual, but don’t want to wade through Walter Piston’s “Harmony”. Mr Sharp provides a user-friendly platform for players of all abilities, with a special emphasis for the gigging musician looking to touch up the ‘zen’ behind that tricky chord change or progression.

A certain sense of humor is an essential part of ‘Garage Band Theory’. The perspective of a working musician gives this primer a unique vantage. This ain’t your standard Mel Bay!” Rich Robiscoe. $15.00 on Kindle.
