I write books inspired by my own life experience as well as historical events. I've lived in a cabin on the banks of a North Georgia river, in a tiny town in Germany and now in the woods in what I call my treehouse, with lots of cats.

About being female in a male dominated world, the fear and empowerment that comes from having your courage tested in life and death situations, to experience things again and again that seem impossible to survive.

Cindy Quigley My books are inspired by my own life experience as well as historical events. I've lived in a cabin on the banks of a North Georgia river, in a tiny town in Germany, in Virginia and now in a house in the woods I call my treehouse with a motley crew of "destructo cats".

Fights and kidnapping, tall ships and storms at sea, romance and adventure of the intimate kind in a "House" in old New Orleans...rags to riches, travel and troubles, rescues, drama and tragedy...what more could one young man's story be? First in a six book series.

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"

Social Security - "That's socialism!"

Debt free education - "That's socialism!"

Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"

$1 trillion+ in tax cuts for the wealthy...

Why are we dehumanizing and persecuting people who are following the rules? Why are we voiding their legal immigration status and then calling them criminals?
Why are we using the label "criminal" to justify inhuman treatment?
Millions of people are now demanding answers to these questions.

The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.
He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations.
It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:

A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

I still don’t understand why people can’t just come here from other countries & stay. Personally, the fraud, & waste is all the money spent adjudicating citizenship. Think of all the money we’d save & tax revenue that would generate. It’s like private health insurance companies. Like, whyyyy?
