Snake & Dog is a lyrical story about a warm-hearted Dog who is drawn to a Snake whose charm hides something colder. Around them, a small animal cast plays out roles we recognise everywhere — the confused bystander, the accuser, the wise mentor, the quiet observer — as Dog learns, gently and in rhyme, to tell real love from love that only looks that way. Written for children finding their footing and adults still finding theirs, it turns big ideas about awareness and boundaries into something warm, safe, and easy to sit with.

Silent Abuse is Sally Jayne’s first-person account of leaving a twenty-year relationship after recognising two decades of quiet psychological harm. Guided by faith and a series of synchronicities she couldn’t ignore, she describes the fear of starting over — middle-aged, jobless, and in a country where she didn’t speak the language — and the freedom that followed. Written as a spiritual journey rather than a clinical one, it sits with the reader in that leap of faith, and in what becomes possible on the other side of it, one ordinary, sun-lit day at a time.

Breathing Room, part of L.D. Belding’s Psychic Oxygen series, is written specifically for the alienated parent — a space to step back from the fight for contact and ask what comes next. It’s about discovering new purpose, sustaining hope, and navigating the grief of an alienated relationship without losing your integrity along the way.
