A Long Walk to Nowhere

Christopher Dunn is a normal man with a talent as a great story teller. This is his story, but it could very easily be yours. A story of a normal life and all the tragedy and triumph that accompany it. It is a story about rejection and belonging; it is a story of friendship and betrayal, it is a story of love and loss; it is a story sexual assault and overcoming; it is a story of depression and suicide. It is a human story, it is all of our story.

Dunn starts this journey where it almost ended with a suicide attempt. And he proceeds to take us on the journey of how he ended up there and the journey of how he overcame it. With the use of humor and story telling, Dunn weaves a tapestry of the human experience that is relatable and life changing.

Here you will find a conversation with a friend, a conversation that we need to have in our culture. Dunn, uniquely does not draw conclusions, but asks all the questions. The answers are left to the reader to decide for themselves based on their own life experience. So get prepared to take a walk, a long walk that will end nowhere, wherever your nowhere is.

Ron K. Bailey and Beverly W. Bailey:

Adult Educators, Online Pioneers, Philanthropists, and Entrepreneurs

This historiography gave an objective view of how their roles in adult education made life better for their family, friends, employees, and students. It also tells the story of a Viet Nam Era Veteran who used his childhood work, Boy Scouts, Civil Air Patrol, High School Sports, and newspaper carrier experiences to execute a strategic plan. A plan which started with his move from an area with limited education and employment opportunities. Finally, this is also a partial view into the life of Beverly and her role in helping Ron achieve his dream.

With that said, the author believes that it is time for the adult education field to learn more about Ron K. Bailey’s contribution to adult education and online learning. The steps he took to overcome many barriers to rise to the presidency of an accredited university, pioneer online learning initiatives for adult learners, and design programs for working adults are worth sharing with the adult education community. A cornerstone of his adult education programs was providing adult students easy access to technical careers, accredited degrees, or career-changing diplomas.

One factor in Ron’s success at Strayer College was Beverly W. Bailey’s support.

The Eternilim: Part 1 - Babel 

The greatest story ever told - is the story of us.

An unlikely combination of Dan Brown's history & Harry Potter’s magic, this is a reimagining of humanity’s origins & legends as lived by those who were there.

​The tale of three friends in ancient Babylonia, who through trial, joy, & danger, discover the secrets of the eterniverse & must ultimately overcome its enemies - & choose a destiny for us all.

The theories of today, myths, & historical tales of the divine on earth intertwine in the lives of brothers Arda, Dagan, & their friend Shala who find themselves part of an eons-long struggle.

Both angels & daemons are eager to keep & protect a Nephilim of their own after the flood that had nearly eradicated the species in 2,348 BC. Dubious caretakers, retired Gregori, & stoic priests will guide them as they face the perils in the guarded streets of the city, & come of age at the White Temple of Ninurta.

All the while, the Kings of Babylon that had commissioned the building of a tower in 1,697 BC to honor Marduk, concealed the purpose of a golden Orichalcum rod rising within its core.

​From Atlantis to the farthest reaches of space, from dreamscapes & battlefields to the very edge of death, the trio must endure the evil in the world & the darkness that dwells within, & finally confront their hopes, fears, fate, & each other.
