Suicide is rampant today, but in "TELL OTHERS" one family has already experienced 10 suicides in less than 5 generations. Young and old alike, family members, successful people, all with lots to live for, still turned to taking their own lives, but why? Marjorie Struck goes back to the beginning and gives the reader a front row seat to what drives a person to take their own life. She explores the world of depression, alcohol and drug addictions and the inevitable road that leads to suicide. But this story also exhibits new hope. Struck shows that it doesn't have to end in death...there are real reasons and choices, that can change the outcome, but it must start with understanding that this is a disease, just like cancer, or heart disease or diabetes. There is also new information that a gene that is missing in the brain may be onc cause. A person who can get no enjoyment out of anything will eventually turn to all paths that lead to the only conclusion possible...suicide This gene had been shown to be passed down from generation to generation. The only way to battle this killer is to face it head on Admit this is a disease, take our heads out of the sand and see there is a medical cause and then get help to combat its effects. The best way to defeat this awful murderous disease is with knowledge and understanding. Marjorie Struck courageously took the first step, will you be willing to join her ...until the day when this disease will be eradicated?

When Meagan Summers ends her three-year relationship with her deadbeat rocker boyfriend, the last thing she expects is to fall in love with a woman. Yet when she meets the beautiful blond poet, Amber Reed, that's exactly what happens. But Meagan finds her relationship with Amber is fraught with just as many anxieties and frustrations as her previous relationships. She struggles to come to terms with her newfound attraction to Amber as she juggles work, familial expectations, and her own guilt and insecurity. At times it seems the only solace she can find is in the cherished moonstone ring her beloved grandmother bestowed upon her before she died, along with some sage advice Meagan is just now beginning to understand. Yet soon Meagan discovers she can't be the person Amber needs her to be, and when their relationship comes to a dramatic end, Meagan finds herself fleeing to London in an attempt to put the pieces of her life back together. Just when she finally figures out how to make things right, a tragic accident occurs, threatening to undo everything and everyone around her.*10% of first year book sales go to help support LGBT Youth
Meagan Summers had it all-she was young and pretty, a successful businesswoman with a skyrocketing career in magazine publishing, and a baby on the way. Until, one night, she lost it all in a devastating accident that terminated her pregnancy and left her in a coma, paralyzed from the waist down. Tell Me Again follows Meagan's meandering, difficult journey to recovery, as she struggles to overcome obstacle after obstacle-addiction, paralysis, and a fragile, sometimes volatile, relationship with her soul mate, a beautiful poet named Amber. Along the way, Meagan begins to discover that fate has much more in store for her and Amber. Curious echoes from her time in a coma begin to appear-strange premonitions and dreams, half-formed memories of a mysterious place called the Realm, where life and death hang in a fluid, shifting balance. Fate has one more big challenge for Meagan-a challenge that will test her, and Amber, in ways they can't even imagine.Tell Me Again is a story of resilience in the face of overwhelming obstacles, a story of pain, friendship, forgiveness, and, most of all, love-that will leave you guessing and gasping at every turn.
"Timmy Reed's stories are so strange and so funny that it's impossible to stop reading them. There is a great imagination at work in Tell God I Don't Exist and I'm grateful to have been a witness to it." - Michael Kimball, author of Big Ray and Dear Everybody "If George Saunders and Russell Edson had a baby he'd probably grow up to write like Timmy Reed. These stories are beautifully haunting, surprisingly bizarre, and wonderfully imaginative. It is a joy to read such fresh and mind-bending prose." - Jessica Anya Blau, author of Drinking Closer to Home and The Summer of Naked Swim Parties "Timmy Reed's Tell God I Don't Exist announces a wildly gifted new voice. These stories are at once intimate and vast, full of beauty and strangeness and grit and heartbreak. A luminous debut." - Laura van den Berg, author of What the World Will Look Like When All the Water Leaves Us "...I think it's amazing." - Scott McClanahan (http: //entropymag.org/the-weird-interview-scott-mcclanahan/) "In a world of posturing and worrying about public perception, it's liberating to let loose and give in to the ecstatic joy that characterizes Reed's oeuvre." - Quincy Rhoads, HTML Giant (http: //htmlgiant.com/reviews/25-points-tell-god-i-dont-exist/) "If you come to this book with expectations of what a short story should be, prepare to have them pleasantly, if fleetingly, defied. If you go in with no expectations, then congratulations, you may be one of the few people who don't need art like this." - Baltimore City Paper (Full Review: http: //citypaper.com/arts/books/book-review-em-tell-god-i-don-8217-t-exist-em-1.1532044) "Really, Reed's characters are just looking for beauty, just like anybody else. The irony, of course, is that they often experience a beauty we would find enthralling if we were in their situations. This is part of the point he's making, I think, that there's beauty in our own lives that we miss for various reasons. But we should pay attention. There's a beauty in all life, and there's beauty in connection." - C.L. Bledsoe, Prick of the Spindle (http: //www.prickofthespindle.com/index.htm) "His writing includes bizarre otherworldy situations taking place on earth; apocalyptic atmospheres where subtle tenderness exists; our new technology juxtaposed against things more primitive; surreal images in mundane costumes. His terse sentences hauntingly make you laugh." - Matthew Sherling, Cutty Spot (http: //cuttyspot.tumblr.com/post/71531951056/some-of-my-favorite-media-i-can-remember) "If Aesop's Fables every decided to get weird, really weird, they'd look a lot like Tell God I Don't Exist." - Beach Sloth (Full Review: http: //beachsloth.blogspot.com/2013/04/tell-god-i-dont-exist-by-timmy-reed.html) "The prose itself is refreshingly unique. The sentences layer themselves into often-unexpected situations, expressing themselves with a clarity that never makes you feel lost, despite the rabbit holes (or perhaps mole tunnels) that they often lead you through. The experiences in each feel tangible, despite the dream-like way in which they often unfold." - Rachel Wooley, Monologging (Full Review: http: //monologging.org/?p=1431)
