You can be stagnant or move forward to greatness. In Skinny Girl Chronicles, author Sherry Hopper-Wall shares some of her major life events. Th ese include the highs and lows and the fear she developed at an early age, a fear that almost deterred her from creating a better life than her early years in Virginia. Her story reveals personal feelings and details about her coming of age as a young, black girl in a small, southern town; a strained mother-daughter relationship; a failed first marriage; and a renewed faith in love. She also highlights the fact she’s a highly sensitive person and how being so has played a major role in how she perceives the world around her, as well as how she responds to it. An intrinsically happy person, Hopper-Wall demonstrates resiliency and determination in moving forward from any encounter that doesn’t bring about positivity. When she became ill with Grave’s Disease, unlearning unhealthy habits became her primary focus to return to the full happiness she once knew. Skinny Girl Chronicles shares not only the good, but also the trials and uncertainties, which Hopper-Wall conquered with determination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book John Savage (the hero of The Savage Chronicles 1: John Savage) established his family on a substantial tobacco plantation along the Nansemond River in colonial Virginia in the mid-1600s. The Savage family, now Quaker converts, came to practice a religion of peace and forbearance. It is his son, John Jr. (JJ), who assumes leadership in the family and in the community as his aged father’s health declines. It is sadly not a time that easily permits peace and forbearance. Tobacco production has declined as soils lose fertility. The solution for many planters is to invade Indian lands, kill them, and take their lands, following the lead of the infamous Nathaniel Bacon. These Indians, the Nansemond Algonquians, are friends of JJ and his family who grew up playing with them as children. How can JJ and his family protect their dear friends? And pirates are now poised once more to attack the Savage plantation. Do the Savages stick with their spiritual beliefs of peacefulness, or do they finally protect their own lives and land after having yielded to destruction from two previous pirate assaults? In the midst of these challenges, courtship and love slip its way into the Savage clan and their friends and neighbors—Indian, African American, and captives of pirates. In a time of such turmoil and danger, one wonders how it is possible for love to prevail.
