The book is a beautiful story of becoming; of learning to handle the challenges of life in new and empowering ways; of coming from a bigger place; of learning to communicate openly so people can stop seeing one another as adversaries and come to a shared understanding of the challenges they face.

Each quatrain of the Centuries of Nostradamus relates an event specific to one of three Antichrists, and startling details are reinforced by vast historical research. This grand light shed on messages through the divine prophet makes the entire context of the verses comprehensible with a consistent theme that relays an important message about the proven past, the active present, and the near future of the world.  This clarification of the enigmatic verse of Nostradamus is the most comprehensive bringing the first true understanding that each surface verse discusses one of three temporal kings, commonly known as Antichrists.What if an understanding of the past, present, and future with all certainty halted naïve debate?In an age of uncertainty about the future many people look to the wisdom of the prophets. This monumental effort stimulates not only mental and emotional well being but also spiritual health. People want to know how truth impacts survival in an uncertain world nearing the vastly misunderstood, prophesied year of 2012. The highest difficulty remains in determining truth.The past helps develops understanding of what led to current conditions. Without emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual elements to fulfill the record of history the wealth of our past and the understanding of our future remains impotent.Nostradamus, a divine prophet, focused on revealing the spiritual and material destiny of the world in order to prepare humankind for the future and reconnection to the Divine. His prophecies have been in print for approximately 500 years -- which is longer than any book except the Holy Bible. The prophecies of Nostradamus are biblically sound coinciding directly with the honored messages of biblical prophets from Abraham through the Apostle John. Each new generation of people has continued to pour over the verses of Nostradamus seeking higher truth and understanding. A critical new understanding reveals that Nostradamus prophesied and wrote specifically about three Antichrists reigning from the year 1700 - 2000 A.D. and beyond. Two of these Antichrists dominated the human race culminating spiritual forces into the Third Antichrist - the One who will fully incarnate the supernatural forces of Satan ultimately torturing humanity in the final war against God bringing the End of Days.

Twenty Centavos, A Mystery Set in San Miguel de Allende. TWENTY CENTAVOS A new book by John Scherber Does an artist really see things differently? Painter Paul Zacher, preparing for a gallery show in the Yucatan, is unwillingly drawn into a murder investigation in his home town of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. A prominent antiques dealer has been shot in the head, and a twenty centavo coin found in his mouth. Zacher draws on the help and expertise of his Mexican girlfriend, Maya Sanchez, and his retired detective friend, Cody Williams, to comb the prosperous expatriate community for clues as he tries to stay out of the way of the police. The action ricochets from the heartland of colonial Mexico to the steamy jungles of the Yucatan, as Zacher inches closer to the killer, only to find himself marked as the next victim. Twenty Centavos is the first book in the Murder in Mexico mystery series.

In 1973, a naïve young woman embarked on a westward venture to unknown destinations. From the beginning, her plans go awry. Depending on people that fell to the wayside was her first staggering lesson in how volatile the world could be. Still, she continued alone on her journey. 
Growing up in the suburbs of Long Island left her craving more than what her hometown had to offer. Her search to quell an insatiable lust for a western lifestyle begins in Colorado but not without a poignant departure from a nurturing family. Leaving her father on the platform at Penn Station as her train pulls out becomes haunting memory. 
Yet, the lure of the west awakened a yearning within that she could not dismiss. Colorado was a magnet in the seventies for every wanderer searching for more than what the east coast offered. The brilliant colors of red rock canyons, the grandeur of magnificent, snow-capped mountains, and the crystal clarity of raging rivers, all combined to capture her soul. 
But Colorado was only the steppingstone to an excursion that led to the Yukon in a roundabout way. A washed-out highway amid a search for gold all created a detour that led to eight years in a Canadian territory that would alter the course of her life. 
She departs from the familiarity of her home country with a backpack and a spirited friend, accompanied by two dogs abducted from a dog pound. There are rivers to paddle under a midnight sun and a trek over a mountain pass that proves to be outside the scope of any vision she'd ever had for herself. 
During her stay in the north, she naively puts her faith in a man who tests her capabilities, physically and emotionally. As a result, two new lives emerge under precarious circumstances. She comes to understand the depth of loyalty and the degree of affection that surmount every obstacle she's ever faced. The peril of raising two babies in the Yukon takes on a life of its own. 
She returns to the states in a pick-up truck with two toddlers. The remains of a dog in a grave of permafrost and dirt are the only ties she has left to cut in the frigid land she abandons. 
Civilization in the states presents new challenges of its own. Existing on the complacency of state assistance becomes intolerable. Single parenthood brings a new set of circumstances to light where poverty and the threat of homelessness evoke unforeseen challenges 
This story is a tale of resurrection. From the depths of loneliness and the hardship of destitution, dormant traits surface, strengths that lie hidden in so many of us. Inspired by the kindness of strangers and guided by blind faith lies hope for light at the end of a dark and dreary tunnel.
