Book Description
Many of us have one--a place where we store mementos that remind us of an earlier period in our lives--either happy or sad. Those ties to our past are commonly found in a similar place, hidden in a shoebox buried at the back of a closet shelf. It's called The Shoebox Effect--where you "forget", intentionally or unintentionally, about the contents of the box and what they represent. Marcie Keithley's shoebox contained a secret, one she kept for decades, one released when her shoebox was unexpectedly revealed in a moment of grief. A flood of memories and emotions were unleashed when the lid was knocked off. No longer able to deny what she had sequestered away in her closet and in her spirit, the revelation created challenges for Marcie, but it also did something positively unexpected. Releasing the truth began a cascade that resulted in a freedom Marcie did not know was possible. The dramatic story of this long-kept secret, which has been reported globally on major networks and in newspapers across America, will intrigue and enthrall you. But Marcie Keithley doesn't just make her story all about her. Now known as The Shoebox Sherpa, she helps people unpack their own shoeboxes, and teaches us how to face our truths, heal our pasts, and find the freedom we deeply desire. Be prepared to consider Marcie's question to all of us, "What's in your shoebox?"

Book Description
Inside all of us are stories from our days as young'uns that bring back all kinds of feelings and sad memories; some are good and some not so good. But these are the experiences that can (if we allow them), shape our lives positively and or negatively. It's not the circumstances in our past that make us the folks that we are, but the way we relate to them and the attitudes with which we live beyond them.

Book Description
Out of the Shoebox is an incredible mystery based on real events unfolding around memories of an aging American veteran that occurred during WWII. This twofold story line, full of twists and turns, set against a wartime backdrop in Great Britain, is now being disclosed after the turn of the century in the United States. While sharing real-life experiences with his great-grandson and setting out to put a realistic face on today's world, the captivating events of old become quite entertaining. The action in the novel takes place in two countries, and Charlie Allen's deep discussions frequently move back and forth in time. His historical narratives become quite an adventure when he reveals a succession of unexplainable intertwining incidents that occurred in and around a legendary British castle in Cheptow Monmouthshire, Wales. The story begins with a heavy rainstorm in Los Angeles that takes Charlie's mind back in time to his World War II army years. While reminiscing with his great-grandson about his wartime adventures, Charlie often linked widespread headlines of the day with events of the past.
