This is part memoir and part "how to be a teacher" with an emphasis on literacy and learning through written reflection. I tell the story of becoming a teacher, working in the inner-city, and relate it to how literacy and writing can improve learning.

Threnody is an archaic word which has its roots in the Greek term, which means to sing a dirge, generally at a funeral or at the loss of a cherished person. In this volume, D. Scott Smith (author of Motivational Listener) provides vision and understanding that allows for comparison between the “good old days” and the present times. The nineteenth century seems so distant and unreal, almost as if there is no connection between the people of that era and ourselves. When listening to this book, you will be surprised at how much we have in common.

Life sometimes likes to throw "haymakers". You know, sudden and unexpected events where you find yourself dealing with personal loss that leads to heartbreak. These experiences can break you, leaving you questioning your worth and leading down a dark path of shame and fear. Too often, we turn our pains and hurts into reasons to be vehicles for hatred, bitterness, resentment, and dysfunctional patterns. That’s our society and culture’s way. But that’s not how it has to be. Discover a better way! You can be solid and whole.

Last spring Claire's seemingly normal - if not totally screwed up - life was tossed on its head. For five years she'd been one of the damned - a human that knows the truth about the otherworldly among us. She'd worked for The Boss - the Demon King himself - as his administrative assistant, handling everything from early retirements, to Maintenance's incessant requests for dental. No one gets dental.

Last Spring, Claire was framed for the murder of Junior, the Devil's oldest hellspawn. Last Summer, she reawakened the fourth realm, saved the world (after almost destroying it), and wound up with the worst job ever. Now, Claire's been locked out of her realm, given an assistant that doesn't actually assist, and told to handle a small problem in Underworld that might just get her killed. And to top it all off, Mab's made one of the contenders her untouchable. So, yeah, you could say Claire's having one of those days.
