Editor-in-Chief: Ground Truth Press
Col It's been a prayerful project full of much reflection.

My language background and early days as a teaching assistant in graduate school helping English as a Second Language (ESL) students write better papers led me down an interesting path into editing market research documents in several industries for analysts around the world. Language and culture became an important component in interacting with these ESL writers, not only upon interpreting the in

tent of the information they were communicating but also during the revision and review process. This journey from language study to fine-tuning written work and becoming intimately familiar with the nuances of my own first language prepared me better for a longtime passion to pursue writing original work. Initially, this manifested as a blog while living in the Marshall Islands for a few years. After coming through the many valleys and mountaintops of living somewhere so different, mixed in with some life experience on several counts and a greater commitment to studying the Bible, I began to articulate how everyday life—the struggles and the joys—can draw directly from the Bible to find real-life answers and wisdom. As I searched answers for myself, I journaled and documented Scripture that appropriates itself to such hot topics as anxiety, healthy living, boundary setting, brokenness, reconciliation, grace, child-rearing, among many others, and I set out to communicate the God of the Bible to help others to see Him and find Him in His words and promises. This first book is expected to be published in September 2014, and it's the result of not only studying Scripture but also listening to others along the way, developing not only what I would say to myself but what I would want to say to others. My hope is that there is a little bit of everything in there for everyone: for the seeker, the skeptic, and the longtime believer; for those as obsessed with coffee as I am; for those looking to find the still voice of God when life rages. Along the way, I have been blessed to be invited on multiple occasions to offer inspirational talks on these same subjects. It's my goal to land wherever the writing and speaking offer me opportunity to communicate His life with others, to share life's journey in a way that hopefully ministers to others, and to keep a hand in the publishing industry where I can continue to both write original work and help others polish and bring clarity to their product and content.

Congratulations to our newest author at Ground Truth Press!

Rev. Jack Davenport has tackled tough topics of faith, science, and philosophy with grace, clarity, and great wisdom (and reason).

No matter where you fall on the spectrum of belief in a Creator, his depth of knowledge of both theology and science strikes a beautiful balance in forming the questions we should all be asking ourselves to come to a rational conclusion.

Well done, Jack!

My daughter and I were honored to be able to represent by attending a 2nd grade Author Fair recently, where GTP's very own author Tasha Eizinger ran a publishing workshop.

What a treat to see how inspired a group of second grade authors and illustrators who, in just a few weeks' time, had produced their own illustrated picture books, with pagination, copyright page, acknowledgement page, "About the Author" page, and stories with full creative elements that build intrigue and draw the readers in. What an extra surprise to see they created their own marketing posters and also were available to each read their literary works of art. Fantastic job, Young Authors and Mishawaka Catholic School teachers! And well done, Tasha Harper Eizinger The Little Shot for encouraging the next generation of dreamers and authors/illustrators! This publisher's heart was beaming...and still is!

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED in having Tasha speak at your school or run a publishing workshop, please message her at The Little Shot page. Her passion for children is unparalleled!

Unpacked my office boxes, and there she is…Book 3 of ! In Book 1, she’s courageous; then she’s humbled in Book 2…and now she is experiencing personal growth (as am I, her relocated publisher)!

Yokwe ("Hello"/"Greetings") from the Republic of the Marshall Islands!

Ground Truth Press is up and running again after a huge move. Now on the other side of the International Dateline and, depending on Daylight Savings Time, we are 16 to 17 hours ahead of EST. Based out of South Dakota in the States, but functioning in real-time in the Republic of the Marshall Islands for a few years. Here are the new hours and how they match up with EST.

SCHEDULING: Calls and video consults can be set up during daytime hours, but most GTP work will take place after 3 PM (RMI time) and on weekends.

**At the current moment, Ground Truth Press regrettably cannot accept new clients but will update here when the schedule is free again.**

Blessings to you!

Founding Editor

Congratulations to Ground Truth Press author Deborah Jayne for a beautiful, deeply honest, heart-wrenching memoir of the deliberate steps she took in a journey of healing and eventual escape from the psychological cage of her husband's Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Deborah offers much encouragement and a path forward to greater freedom to anyone who struggles, has struggled, or knows someone who struggles within the desperate isolation and shame of abuse of any kind.
