My Formerly Hot Life


Book Description

When men stop making lecherous catcalls and Spanx get comfortable in your lingerie drawer, when marketers target you for Activia instead of $200 premium denim, when you have to start wearing makeup to get that “I’m not wearing any makeup” glow and are “ma’amed” outside the Deep South, it may dawn on you that somehow you have crossed an invisible line: You are not the young, relevant, in-the-mix woman you used to be. But neither are you old, or even what you think of as middle-aged. You are no longer what you were, but not quite sure what you are. Stephanie Dolgoff calls this stage of a woman’s life “Formerly,” the state of mind and body she herself is in now: Her roaring twenties are behind her, but she’s not in hot flash territory, either. My Formerly Hot Life, showcasing Dolgoff’s wacky and wise observations about this little-discussed flux time, demonstrates that becoming a Formerly is intensely poignant if you’re paying attention, and hilarious even if you’re not. From fashion to friendship, beauty to body image, married sex to single searching, mothering to careering (or both), Dolgoff reveals the upside to not being forever 21—even as you watch the things you once thought were so essential to a happy life go the way of the cassette tape. You may be formerly thin, formerly cool, formerly (seemingly) carefree, formerly cutting-edge, but in reading My Formerly Hot Life you are reminded that you are finally more comfortable in your skin (formerly obsessed with your weight), finally following your instincts (formerly ruled by the opinions of others), and finally happy with where you are (formerly focused on the guy or job you thought would take you where you thought you should be). While you may no longer be as close to the media-machine-generated idea of fabulous, you can do many, many more things fabulously. Wildly entertaining and inspiring, My Formerly Hot Life proves that once you let yourself laugh about that which is passing, life is richer, more fun, and more satisfying. Despite what you’re led to believe, growing older most certainly means growing better.




(A)Typical Woman


Book Description

A Woman Through and Through In a culture that can belittle womanhood on the one hand—making it irrelevant—and glorify it on the other—making it everything—it’s hard to know what it really means to be a woman. But when we understand womanhood through the lens of Scripture, we see that we need a bigger category for what God has called “woman.” This book breathes fresh air into our womanhood, reminding us what life in Christ—as a woman—looks like. When we see that we are women in all we do, we can be at peace with how God has created us, recognizing womanhood as an essential part of Christ’s mission and work.

Growing Young


Book Description

Rejuvenated by genetic engineering, Mark takes over the task of negotiating with the world who should win the treatment and how civilization must cope with the prospect of further overpopulation. He battles an assault on the White House, near assassination, and civil wars in his desperate attempt to stabilize a world upset by the advent of eternal life. His character changes via new neurons that replace those that have died. He also rediscovers love and the many other joys of youth. REVIEWS In Growing Young, Dean Warren has built a powerful novel. He engages the reader with well developed characters and thought provoking ideas in a compelling saga of greed, manipulation and romance. A must read for the sci fi fan as well as those individuals concerned with the issues of aging and overpopulation in todays world. Linda Dunlap, author. MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW, October 1, 2002 Growing Young by Dean Warren is an adventurous and intriguing science fiction novel about Dr. Mark Langer, an old man who is presented with a cure for aging. Langer undertakes the treatment and reverses his aging body to that of a robust and healthy 25 year-old. Yet in a world already crushed with overpopulation, how is he to see that this magnificent achievement is not abused for malevolent ends? Growing Young accomplishes what science fiction does best--provides the reader with a profound and thoughtful saga about how the possibility of immortality could affect human society as a whole. CROWS NEST BOOKS, 9/1/2002 Growing Young is not some dry essay. It is a very witty novel. The main character, Dr. Mark Langer, is a cross between Bill Clinton and James Bond, with the combined pulling powers of both! The ghetto gangsters and Jared Hull (a man so bad that you want to throw orange peel at him!) are gloriously well done and help the story to travel like a raft on the river rapids. If you like the wry cynicism of Dr. Strangelove of Stark by Ben Elton then this book should be on your reading list. It explores important human issues in a funny and very immensely readable novel. SCRIBES WORLD REVIEWS, 11/1/2002 This is a very well done and intriguing story as well as a very thought provoking one. If eternal youth were available to a chosen few, who would you choose? THE COMPULSIVE READER, 11/25/2002 Dean Warrens newest book, GROWING YOUNG, proves once again that he is a master of this writing genre. He writes of a futuristic society while weaving in facts of things happening in our own time: scientific and genetic research, unemployment, division of the poor and the elite, war and over-population. He not only entertains but makes readers think of the possibility of these things and the repercussions that go along with them. EXCERPT
