In the age of blogs and omnipresent social media, where is the line between laudable, cathartic honesty and oversharing? Maggie Kelly started her personal blog for one reason: to prevent her head from exploding with frustration. She is, frankly, tired of at-home motherhood and weary of her husband Michael's frequent absences due to his workaholic ways. She feels like a hostage to marriage and maternity. So when a friend suggests that she create an anonymous blog where she can complain to her heart's content and not have to hold anything back, "Maggie Has Had It" was born. After her controversial, raw and profane blog posts draw thousands of online readers, Maggie's blogging identity is inadvertently revealed. Michael is horrified to learn that his wife has written, in great detail, about his shortcomings as a husband and, mortifyingly, between the sheets. To make matters worse, it is his mother who tells him about his online humiliation. While many people have been embarrassed by unkind remarks that have been made about them from time to time, few have had those unflattering quips go viral in the way Michael's humiliation does. Mortification in 21st century fashion: via Google.

The first of its kind to explore the Nobel Prize experience!"Dad, some guy is calling from Sweden." It was 2:30am on October 13th, 1998, the youngest son in the Laughlin house had answered the phone.

The glorious Nobel ceremony and elaborate banquet is held each winter with a viewing audience of tens of millions. An intimate dinner with King Gustaf in his royal palace follows the Nobel evening in which Anita Laughlin finds herself the King's dinner partner for what becomes an evening of hilarious surprises, and yes, reindeer. This book is laced with cartoons drawn by Bob Laughlin that evoke collective feelings of surprise and bewilderment as he and his wife ascend the steep learning curve of Swedish protocol together.

From my work with many who have awakened, I've learned that what it takes for us to finally quit trying to awaken, and simply awaken, is highly individualized. In my own life, I can detect 15 shifts that occurred within me. Yet, as I talk with others, it becomes increasingly apparent that those shifts are pretty much common to the experience of awakening. In FROM ROLE TO SOUL, I take you into the everyday nitty-gritty of what awakening is-what it looks like, what it feels like, and how it comes about. As you experience the shifts in your own life, you'll find a new joy arising in you, a deep love of life flooding through you, and the kind of meaning and fulfillment for which you've always longed. ~ Annie
