Co-Author, "Goodbye, Fat Guy! How I Lost 200 Pounds and Built a New Life, One Day at a Time" by Starke Taylor with Debbra Dunning Brouillette (Zone Press, 2009)



EGFGWebCoverxcerpt from the Prologue:

 

You don’t know me but I know you…

 

You are the man across the aisle from me on a plane who asks for a seatbelt extender. You are the young guy in the next booth whose stomach uncomfortably presses against the table as he downs a banana split. You are the middle-aged woman at the stoplight gorging on French fries. You are the man in front of me on the street whose weight causes him to slowly shuffle to his destination. You are the person ahead of me on the stairs who stops to catch her breath as she reaches the landing. You are the red-faced young woman next to me at the gym, huffing and puffing, as she pedals a stationary bike.

 

All of you are overweight; some of you are dangerously obese. And I know you well, because I was you! I was obese and faced all of the above situations and others you'll read about in the pages of Goodbye, Fat Guy! 


Available on www.amazon.com.

TESTIMONIAL: As a first-time author, I had no idea where to begin to bring my weight loss success story to life. I feel fortunate to have been led to Debbie, who helped me to organize my experiences and put them into book form in a way that communicates all I was hoping to achieve. She was a great collaborator, working with me to bring out the important parts of my weight loss journey, my maintenance of the weight loss, how I was able to build a new life, and how others can do the same. Her research on food choices, restaurant dining, and nutrition added greatly to my personal story. Her attention to detail and her desire to make my book project all I wanted it to be is greatly appreciated. Debbie's dedication to the entire process, from our first interview to preparing the manuscript for the publisher, has been outstanding.  I would highly recommend her as a co-author or ghostwriter to others who have a story to tell. Thank you, Debbie, for being my personal 'wordsmith.' You have been a pleasure to work with.

 


Editor, "Justice is Coming" by John Boundy (Zone Press, 2008)

As Attorney John Boundy likes to describe it, “I had a story to tell” and he tells it well. This is a compelling and suspenseful fictionalized tale based on an actual case he was involved in years ago, which has been life-changing. Publishing Justice is Coming was a personal triumph for the author, whose future goal is to see the book turned into a screenplay, and, ultimately, become a feature film. Justice is Coming is available on www.amazon.com, other major online bookstores, and at www.zonepress.comHe is also an accomplished jewelry-maker. Check out his designs and also buy the book on his websitewww.shootingstarcreations.com. 

 

Book Description: To his ever-faithful patients, Dr. Milton Conger is a compassionate healer who places their health and well being above all else. But there’s more—so much more—to the engaging Dr. Conger. Behind the facade of stethoscope and white physician’s coat lurks a man playing evil games, like insurance fraud. His world of deception feeds a lavish lifestyle of private islands, luxury yachts, and personal jets with wealth that knows no boundaries. When small-town lawyer, Ernie Holmes, learns of the means and methods of the conniving doctor, he becomes a central figure in a major lawsuit aimed at dismantling Dr. Conger’s ill-gotten empire. Heated confrontations erupt in the courtroom and lead to another game . . . one that turns deadly! In Justice is Coming, Holmes finds himself squaring off with the arrogant Dr. Conger both on and off the witness stand. He fights to unravel Conger’s devious schemes, and finally devises a risky plan to track down the millions they have yielded. It’s a journey filled with twists and turns at every dangerous corner. For those who survive the ride, their lives will never be the same.

 

TESTIMONIAL: This being my first full-length work, Debbie was patient and guiding, like a mother with a newborn, or a toddler taking his first steps. She was insightful and willing to venture outside the box with me when my characters had to follow a different path.
