Mitchell Wendy, Wharton Anna What I Wish People Knew About Dementia. From Someone Who Knows
What can a diseased brain tell us about being human, living our own lives better and helping those with dementia get the best from theirs? When Wendy Mitchell was diagnosed with young-onset dementia at the age of fifty-eight, her brain was overwhelmed with images of the last stages of the disease - those familiar tropes, shortcuts and cliches that we are fed by the media, or even our own health professionals. But her diagnosis far from represented the end of her life. Instead, it was the start of a very different one. Wise, practical and life affirming, What I Wish People Knew About Dementia combines anecdotes, research and Wendy Mitchell's own brilliant wit and wisdom to tell readers exactly what she wishes they knew about dementia.

Mitchell Wendy One Last Thing. How to live with the end in mind
Wendy Mitchell doesn't fear anything anymore. After her diagnosis of young-onset dementia in 2014, all of Wendy's old fears - the dark, animals - melted away. What more was there to be afraid of when she faced her worst fear: losing her own mind? While living with her diagnosis and facing the extreme changes that come along with a progressive terminal illness, Wendy wrote two Sunday Times-bestselling books, went skydiving for the first time and supports multiple dementia advocacy groups in the UK. She is known for talking about living with dementia, but now – while she is still able to – she explores dying with it. In One Last Thing, Wendy embarks on a journey to explore all angles of death: how we can prepare for it, how we talk about it with our loved ones and how we can be empowered to make our own choices. With conversations on the topic of assisted dying, from those who are fighting to make it legal to those vehemently opposed to its practice, Wendy reminds us that to get on with the business of living, we need to talk about death.

Keplinger K. That s not what happened
Its been three years since the Virgil County High School Massacre. Three years since my best friend, Sarah, was killed in a bathroom stall during the mass shooting. Everyone knows Sarahs story -- that she died proclaiming her faith.But its not true.I know because I was with her when she died. I didnt say anything then, and people got hurt because of it. Now Sarahs parents are publishing a book about her, so this might be my last chance to set the record straight... but Im not the only survivor with a story to tell about what did -- and didnt -- happen that day.Except Sarahs martyrdom is important to a lot of people, people who dont take kindly to what Im trying to do. And the more I learn, the less certain I am about whats right. I dont know what will be worse: the guilt of staying silent or the consequences of speaking up...

Allison is used to hiding who she really is, and trying to be what other people want her to be. And so, Toffee is who she becomes.

Mahmurova Veronika Labyrinth of Love
I'm Veronika Mahmurova, I'm a beginner writer, I live in Estonia, Tallinn. I decided to write my first book at the age of 21, as I always dreamed about it and wanted people all over the world to read my work. I wrote my first novel when I was in America, when I studied on screenwriting program. Also I love to write about love story, so I decided to create my characters to describe my vision of what a love story could be. My book is about young writer Jennifer whose dream is to find a mutual love, also about her new life, and about how life could change and how suddenly dreams could come true. I believe in destiny, so therefore my book shows how through time could connect two people even if circumstances did not allow them to be together. I hope you enjoy reading my novel.

Fletcher C. A. A Boy and his Dog at the End of the World
The World Has Ended. At Least We Still Have Dogs. My name's Griz. I've never been to school, I've never had friends, in my whole life I've not met enough people to play a game of football. My parents told me how crowded the world used to be, before all the people went away, but we were never lonely on our remote island. We had each other, and our dogs. Then the thief came. He told stories of the deserted towns and cities beyond our horizons. I liked him - until I woke to find he had stolen my dog. So I chased him out into the ruins of the world. I just want to get my dog back, but I found more than I ever imagined was possible. More about how the world ended. More about what my family's real story is. More about what really matters.
