Sharing the Power of Stories
July 2014
Dear friends, 

What an amazing summer it has been. 

I've had new blessings to account for every day, and my spirit is expanding with excitement with the stories I've been working on sharing with our community.  Two amazing books from Divine Phoenix this summer: A New Leash on Life, and  So What Are the Guys Doing?

David Figura
Last month's featured story, Please Don't Forget Me made the bestseller list on Winnipeg Free Press & Tom Pearson will be featured on Mariashriver.com (stay tuned to social media for updates)

The launch of Divine Phoenix continues to be the highlight of my summer as I pursue my true passion - publishing and sharing transformational stories. The response to Live the Life of Your Dreams: 33 Tips for Inspired Living has been so heartwarming and supportive. 

I recently ran a GoodReads giveaway contest, and had 524 people enter to win Live the Life. It's a testimony to just how relevant a book like this, is .

Thank you all for your support!
With Dad
With Mom







Enjoy this magical final month of summer and share your favorite moments on Facebook or Twitter. 

Peace & Blessings, 
Laura Ponticello

   

So What Are the Guys Doing? By David Figura



David Figura tackles his existential questions head-on in this enlightening personal account of the search for meaning and value in one's life. Download a Sample chapter.


From the acclaimed author of The Secret Life of Bees, The Invention of Wings brings us a story inspired by historical figure Sarah Grimke, and her relationship with a young slave girl, "Handful." 

This is a powerful story of enduring friendship with a historical angle, as readers follow the progress towards the abolition of slavery and the women's rights movements in the early 20th century - through the lives of inspirational protagonists.
