The Deep End of Hope in the Wake of Hurricane Helene: 40 Days and Nights of Survival and Transformation by Emma M. Churchman MDiv
Hosted by Itsy Bitsy Book Bits
Genre – Memoir
Imagine being cut off from the world, perched atop a mountain turned into a deadly flood zone by Hurricane Helene’s fury. For Emma Churchman and her husband Jeff, this nightmare became reality in September 2024. For three harrowing days, their loved ones had no idea if they were alive.
But surviving was just the beginning.
When they finally fought their way down three miles of treacherous terrain, they found their small mountain community of Gerton, NC transformed. Without power, phones, or internet, their neighborhood teetered between chaos and unity. As lawlessness emerged and desperation mounted, Emma made a choice that would change everything: to transform her fear into a fierce kind of love.
With raw honesty and unexpected humor, Emma chronicles her role as a trauma chaplain in a community forced to build itself anew. Her powerful mantra becomes a lifeline not just for her, but for an entire community learning to trust again.
“I am safe. I am warm. I am fed. I am loved”
Part survival story, part love letter to human resilience, this unforgettable memoir shows us what’s possible when crisis strips away our differences and reveals our shared humanity. In a world increasingly divided, Emma’s story reminds us that our greatest strength lies not in our independence but in our connections to each other.
With over twenty-five years of experience as a spiritual and business leader, Emma M. Churchman, MDiv, has guided thousands through the labyrinth of trauma to reclaim hope and strength. Her powerful work as a trauma chaplain and mentor is rooted in her own journey of overcoming childhood adversity.

Elegy of Love Lost: A Divorced Husband’s Sonnets by E.P. Lane

Elegy of Love Lost: A Divorced Husband’s Sonnets by E.P. Lane
Hosted by Itsy Bitsy Book Bits
Genre – Poetry Memoir
Page Count – 360
Cover Designer – James Helps
In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, William Shakespeare shared an eternal truth: The course of true love never did run smooth.
Such is true for poet and novelist E.P. Lane, whose own experience with love encompassed both triumphant highs and tumultuous lows before ultimately succumbing to the untimely frost of separation and divorce.
In Elegy of Love Lost, Lane takes us on a journey through his star-crossed marriage. Using the structure of Shakespeare’s immortal poetry, he presents a collection of over 150 carefully crafted sonnets that invite us to both celebrate and lament a love that wasn’t meant to last forever.
From the first flush of attraction to the final furlong of separation, poetry allows Lane to share his experiences with uncommon authenticity. Using a language of love kept alive by generations of scholars, actors, poets and lovers, Lane lets us experience the spark of first attraction, the cold winter of infidelity, and all the seasons in between.
Unique, timeless, and achingly relatable, Elegy of Love Lost: A Divorced Husband’s Sonnets demonstrates why the power of Shakespeare’s poetry remains relevant even four centuries after his death – and why the experience of love still persuades the eyes of men even without a happily-ever-after.

I left a career in sales in Mexico in 2019 to travel and find a place where I would write and maybe paint and continue my creative dreams. Fate intervened, and after four months of travel, I fell in lust with a young Muslim Turk and in love with Istanbul’s historic and exotic city. 

Instead of Elizabeth Gilbert’s laid-back Bali, the energy and creativity of Istanbul turned out to be a writer’s dream. But soon, a worldwide pandemic, lockdowns, death, and anxiety attacks made me question if I had lost complete touch with reality. “I should be retired and living a comfortable life in Canada!” 

From my early years as a military brat, I had perfected the art of starting over. But nothing had prepared me for the sight of Russian warships on the Bosphorus Strait on their way home to begin a war with Ukraine. I couldn’t write; I couldn’t read. My emotions overwhelmed me, and anxiety replaced creativity; Xanax took over from vitamin C. 

One morning I woke up determined to heal myself and share this story. I slowly began to write again. And then it hit me. I shouldn’t be surprised to find myself close to a war zone. I am, after all, a product of my military father, destiny’s daughter.

I’m a writer, a poet, a dreamer, and a lover. I’m a Canadian girl, but I live wherever life takes me. For many years that was Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. In 2019 I bought a series of one-way tickets to several exotic locations around the world. After a two-day layover in Türkiye, I fell in love with Istanbul and a Turkish man. After my travels I returned to Istanbul and have lived here ever since. I’ve found intrigue and mystery wherever I turn in the Middle East. I love words, street art and capturing life with my camera lens. I create stories from what I see and what I can imagine. You will find 19 published books—spy fiction, romantic suspense, poetry, and memoir—on Amazon. My latest is  DESTINY’S DAUGHTER my 20th book.
