Bøger af Andrea Cagan

Andrea Cagan knows how it feels to be a ghost-to hide in the shadows and remain One Sheet Away from the limelight. A professional ghostwriter for many years, she has worked with movie stars, pro athletes, royalty, motivational speakers and rock stars, helping them recall and synthesize their stories onto the page, stage, and screen. Like a literary phantom, she has moved silently behind the scenes to write and produce over a dozen best sellers, all the while, gathering material for her own life story. In Memoirs of a Ghost, Cagan, a baby boomer, takes her readers on a journey through the significant historical eras of the sixties, the seventies, the eighties-all the way through the turn of the century and up to today. Against the backdrop of fascinating stories of her famous clientele, she weaves her own remarkable life experiences as a professional ballet dancer, a movie star, a survivor of domestic violence, a healing researcher, and, first and foremost, a writer. A ghost no more, Cagan recounts her own life stories with disarming honesty and authenticity as she steps out of the shadows and onto center stage.

After unspeakable tragedy, one couple must forge its own path to healing in the bittersweet true story, We Never Left You. One moment, Beth and Rick Olsen were enjoying an ordinary life filled with all the joys and frustrations of raising their two children, Josh and Jessie. The next moment, a drunk driver plowed through a red light at eighty miles per hour, hitting their van and changing everything. The death of both their children launched Beth and Rick down a long and winding path toward simple survival-and eventual healing. As shock gave way to the cruel reality of their loss, they began receiving messages that proved the existence of life after death-a welcome sign that aided them in moving forward. The Olsens soon attempted traditional healing methods but quickly found that counseling did nothing to help them get a grasp on their monumental loss. They then turned to nontraditional approaches-a decision that led them to Peru. It was there they finally began to undergo the immense physical, mental, and emotional changes that allowed them to understand everything-including the accident-happens for a reason.

The rock diva chronicles her twenty-five-year musical career, detailing her rebellious antics during the 1960s and 1970s, Woodstock, her fellow musicians, motherhood, and other aspects of a quarter-century of American pop culture.
