LullabyEver heard of a culling song? It's a lullaby sung in Africa to give a painless death to the old or infirm. The lyrics of a culling song kill, whether spoken or even just thought. You can find one on page 27 of Poems and Rhymes from Around the World, an anthology that is sitting on the shelves of libraries across the country, waiting to be picked up by unsuspecting readers.

Ever heard of a culling song? It's a lullaby sung in Africa to give a painless death to the old or infirm. The lyrics of a culling song kill, whether spoken or even just thought. You can find one on page 27 of Poems and Rhymes from Around the World, an anthology that is sitting on the shelves of libraries across the country, waiting to be picked up by unsuspecting readers. Reporter Carl Streator discovers the song's lethal nature while researching Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, and before he knows it, he's reciting the poem to anyone who bothers him. As the body count rises, Streator glimpses the potential catastrophe if someone truly malicious finds out about the song. The only answer is to find and destroy every copy of the book in the country. Accompanied by a shady real-estate agent, her Wiccan assistant, and the assistant's truly annoying ecoterrorist boyfriend, Streator begins a desperate cross-country quest to put the culling song to rest. Written with a style and imagination that could only come from Chuck Palahniuk, Lullaby is the latest outrage from one of our most exciting writers at work today.Binding Type: Paperback

Insightful, Honest, and So Needed
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Debra has a beautiful way of speaking truth with both clarity and compassion. Every book I’ve read or listened to by her has been incredibly practical, insightful, and genuinely life-impacting for me, and People Skills is already proving to be the same.
Reading (or listening) to Debra's books feels like sitting down with both a skilled counselor and a trusted friend. She doesn’t just offer theory, she offers tools. Honest, helpful, and immediately applicable.
One of the ideas that really stood out to me is that relationships don’t run on intentions. They run on skills. We can mean well and still miss the mark. That reminder is both humbling and hopeful.
This book challenges you to stop defending your intentions and start owning your impact. Then equips you with the skills to love better, communicate clearly, and strengthen the relationships that matter most.
If you care about growing healthier, stronger relationships, this book is a gift. I’m already recommending it to friends, and it's one I know I’ll revisit.

In a world dominated by screens and surface-level interactions, this book is a much-needed wake-up call that reminds us: connection is not automatic—it’s cultivated.

The emphasis on empathy, communication, and emotional awareness is both refreshing and necessary. One of the most powerful aspects of this book is its heart. It’s not just about improving relationships for success—it’s about becoming a vessel of God’s love in how you engage with others. That perspective shifts everything. If you’re serious about growing in your relationships—personally, professionally, or spiritually—this book is a must-read. It will challenge you, sharpen you, and ultimately help you become a more effective and compassionate communicator.

Love Is Not Enough. Skill Makes It Work.
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I genuinely loved this book.
Debra’s core idea is simple but powerful: most relational problems are not caused by a lack of love, but by a lack of skill. That shift in perspective changes everything. It moves the conversation from “Do I care?” to “Am I communicating care in a healthy, effective way?”
What I appreciated most is how practical the book is. It tackles real-life issues like triggers, communication, emotional intelligence, boundaries, and vulnerability, and turns them into skills you can actually practice. The emphasis on personal ownership was especially impactful for me. Instead of focusing on fixing other people, it invites you to ask, “What’s my role?” That question alone can transform a relationship.
This is not a dense academic read. It is accessible, actionable, and deeply helpful. Whether you are married, dating, leading, or simply trying to grow, there is something here for you.
If you want stronger relationships and greater emotional maturity, this book is well worth your time.
