Citizens of the Dream (eBook)

Citizens of the Dream: Advice on Writing, Painting, Playing, Acting and Being collects 41 answers to penetrating questions from writers, painters, musicians, singers, designers, actors and standup artists about how to overcome creative blocks, avoid distraction, find the best medium of expression, make art-related life changes, manage relationships and make a living while staying creative.

I put this book together to help the creative person persevere and excel. I say in the introduction, "The idea behind the title 'Citizens of the Dream' is that as creative people we live in our own country with its own physics and history, its own atmospheres and rivers, its own maps. ... We are citizens of the dream. And we might as well accept that we’re different and set about establishing a way of living that meets our particular needs.”

Perhaps you are a creative person who needs a little help. Or perhaps you have a friend who needs a little help but doesn't know it. Either way, I hope this book will enrich your life and the lives of your friends and family.--Cary T.

Mentally Ill Mothers (eBook)

How does it feel to have a mom who is mentally ill?

How does it feel to have a mom who in a psychotic break tries to kidnap your teenage sister? Who when released from the mental hospital throws away her medication? Who threatens and physically assaults her children? Who accuses her family of poisoning her?

What do you do with 30 garbage bags of empty liquor bottles in your mom's apartment? How do you make sure your alcoholic mom gets her diabetes medicine while she's in jail for a DUI?

After writing over 1,500 advice columns for Salon.com, Cary Tennis has learned that no matter what you're going through, somebody else has been through it before. No matter how crazy you think your situation is, there is help available.

Maybe your mom lives with mice, or tried to smother you with a pillow, or has filled her house with junk four feet deep. This book is about people who have lived through that and more. These are real people who grew up in towns and cities just like yours, who had moms and dads who look just like yours. But something went wrong and they had to learn quickly how to cope with the unimaginable.
