Synopsis

Take a poetic journey with author Joe Nance, as he struggles to live life on life's terms. The journey begins with a descent into insanity that leads to the brink of suicide. At the last moment, God's intervention saves the author and brings him to a realization that there is hope in continuing to live. Anger, self-hatred, self-pity and regret are ever-present, but with God's help and interaction with other people, he begins the journey back to life.

If Murder by Suicide can help just one other person realize that hope is not lost, that life can change, then the writing of the tale was worth all the pain, tears and agony.

About this title

About the Author:

Joe Nance lives alone in a little seaside town in North Carolina. As a child of an alcoholic father and a broken home, he swore that he would never be the same. At forty-three he discovered that he was exactly what he swore he would never be. The book, Murder By Suicide, was begun as therapy at the suggestion of a twelve-step program of recovery. Through encouragement of others he continued to write until the pain and self-loathing began to disappear. He hopes to continue to write in a more positive and encouraging way that will help others to realize that there is a God, that life does have value and that if taken with acceptance life can be rather good. Before helping others he realized that first he must help himself. This book was part of that process. It?s dedicated to the people who helped, you know who you are, and to anyone who it might help. May you and God find one another.Visit www.murderbysuicide.net
