My poems come from my journey in life experience from one of the eleven children in Mississippi, to joining the US Marine Corp at seventeen years old during the Vietnam war era and after spending 13 months of overseas duty, I was honorable discharge after my return, as a young man I began to use alcohol as a substance, to deal with that experience and the social ills of that era and it lingered, became a problem later on in life. I began to write poetry as a emotional outlet to ease the pain of my journey to sobriety, which has been fifteen years now. I know the journey is not over but the road is smoother now. That's why I am sharing my pain, my victories, my joy and laughter with you for the veterans suffering with PTSD, anyone dealing with depression, anxiety or mental issues or a bad relationship, a rough day at work, a bad hair day, waiting in the doctor's office to see what the Xray says. After reading a poem, I want you to say that Joseph Theophilus Lowe is that poet, who made me throw that tissue away and put a smile on my face and made my day. May god bless and may you find your way. Sincerely, Joseph Theophilus Lowe

As the devoted single mother of two rambunctious boys--and as the best darn paralegal in town--Chareen Wolf knew all about hard work. But she'd never before had a job so demanding that she and her boss actually had to live together--day after day, night after night.... Trouble was, her new boss had her heartbeat working overtime, too. Michael Greco was devastatingly handsome, irresistibly charming--and clearly determined to keep her with him long after business hours! Yet despite their combustible chemistry, the hard-driving executive hadn't exactly scheduled marriage--or kids--into his future. However, now that she'd finally found the man of her dreams, Chareen wasn't about to throw in the towel. Could they land the deal of a lifetime...together?

“It’s a pleasure to spend time with Monty as she finds the courage to face grief with an open heart.” - Sara Pennypacker, author of New York Times Bestseller Pax Monty doesn’t believe in miracles. Not since her mom died. But she’s going to need one to bring together the right team and win the All Saints School talent show. The nuns have promised that the winners will receive grace. This force could fix everything wrong in Monty’s life—from the fact that she keeps getting detention and upsetting her dad, to the worrisome feeling she’s been having in the wake of her mom’s death: a floating that carries her far above her own life and one day might take her away for good. Monty assembles three classmates to present the work of local poets, but her neighbor Danny’s heart isn’t in it, her crush Leon is a wild card, and her new friend Sandra is living with a chronic illness that keeps getting worse and bringing Monty face to face with difficult memories. Everything is looking bleak, but Monty’s friends rally around her and awaken the bravery she needs to deliver a shocking poetry performance—and finally say goodbye. In her own way, of course. With broken rules and buckets of grace.
