Author Rose Gordy's e-books are now available on Apple's iBookstore and Amazon's Kindle

June 3, 2011 - PRLog -- Rosewords Books is pleased to announce the publication of Rose Gordy's three books in electronic book format. With e-book sales now surpassing print book sales on Amazon, the state of the book business is transitioning to a new and exciting era. Accordingly, Rosewords Books now has e-books for sale on Apple's iBookstore, where over 100 million e-books have been sold, and Amazon's Kindle Store, the industry leader in e-book sales.

Before the advent of electronic books, author and dream counselor Rose Gordy spent thirteen years of her early life as a nun effectively cut off from the world. In spite of the conditions within the church, she managed to leave and make a life for herself including getting married and having three sons. Through her experiences in the convent as well as decades of teaching in the classroom, she has written books which honor the lives lost and changed forever by triumph and adversity. Her three books, detailed below, are titled "Unsettled Lives," "The Ladies Baltimore: Mothers and Daughters Alone and Together" and "Into the Green Unknown," all available at http://www.Rosewords.com.

"Unsettled Lives," a collection of short stories, is a book which explores the roads of momentous decisions and adversity while treading in the realm of unforeseen conundrums and proverbial forks in the road. Women and men who search for the unattainable, protagonists who challenge the status quo, victims who play their part so well, all dance together in the grand spectacle of life. Throughout 21 short "unsettled" stories, numerous situations of emotional and social consequence will be offered to the reader. In "Lila, The Love of His Lonely Life," will Charles ever come to grips with his ephemeral obsession? What is Sister Alberta in "Masquerades" aiming to discover by ingenious cloak-and-dagger operations? Furthermore, what could the doctor In "Joy's Esperanza" tell open-minded Joy that would send her into serious self-doubt? So please hold on for an exceptional psychological trip into the various lives within "Unsettled Lives" ... and don't forget to choose the right door in your own.

In "The Ladies Baltimore: Mothers and Daughters Alone and Together," an aged nun, a depressed waitress, and a lively teenage girl cross paths on a luncheon cruise in the Baltimore Harbor. Each woman will have a succession of unexpected and unique experiences related to mothers and daughters and to the various men in their lives. Spanning eight decades, the story organically unwinds in non-linear fashion as does life. But will these ladies' emotional resistance to the unknown lead them to destroy their vital links to the past? Or will they, through a cascading series of apparently chance encounters and fateful incidences around Baltimore, finally realize how they are profoundly connected? Perhaps time will tell if their lives are sublime results of synchronicity or merely chance encounters.

"Into the Green Unknown" is a must have collection of 21 science fiction stories and 6 poems. Years in the making, these astounding adventures range from everyday events turned bizarre, to fantastic realms under Earth's oceans, to incredible worlds beyond human perception. Stories such as "The Announcement," "Living Waters At Lucia," and "The Man From Somewhere Else" take readers to strange places they can't possibly journey. Or can they...? In "Subterfuge," will Madame President be able to protect L.A. from take over by mind-controlling visitors? In "Lost Tides," can two nervous parents protect their children from a celestial disaster and its ramifications? In "The Genetic Casino," will the abducted Ronatta want to discover how she was chosen or remain ignorant and blissful? At the frenetic pace modern science is progressing these tales may be science fact by the time you cast an eye over them. That is, if they have not already transpired. So join us for a jaunt on the Earth, in the Earth, in the Clouds, and among the Stars.

Rose will be featured on Lifetime’s hit TV show "The Balancing Act," airing June 24th, 2011 at 7am EST/PST. Her interview can also be viewed by visiting www.Rosewords.com, where you can learn more about Rose and her books.
