I Hardly Ever Wash My Hands: the Other Side of OCD
Living with OCD is not for sissies. J.J. Keeler proves that. From her fears of the bomb in her teddy bear to her fear of running over innocent pedestrians, to her fear that she has caused a strangulation, she tells her story in a way that allows us to see inside her disease and to see that she has not lost her sense of humor. This light-hearted yet serious and comforting look at OCD lets some light into the closet of sufferers. This book is for those with OCD or who love someone with OCD, and for those who would like to know what it’s like to live with the daily challenges of OCD.

The Secret of Bog Lane

An autistic boy who has vanished from his six acre yard...an ancient Amazonian legend about a river god clothed in pure white...an elegant home with a vast, tropical garden in its basement...an unlikely love affair in the depths of the world's largest rain-forest...a hideous presence on a dead-end street in an historic American town...and a covert scientific project that could alter the course of human civilization. These are some of the mysteries that set the stage for The Secret of Bog Lane--a story that unfolds in present day Brazil and Massachusetts. In each region, a cast of memorable characters must come to grips with an insidious form of evil. In the balance hang a peaceful and natural way of life, a small American family, and a six year old boy in search of acceptance.
