Featured Title
Road to a Miracle
Author: Mark Shaw
Soon after Mark Shaw’s stepsons and infamous Indiana University basketball coach Bobby Knight made international headlines leading to the coach’s firing, Shaw woke up to a spiritual journey that led him down the road to a miracle.
Born in small-town Indiana after World War II, he traversed America trying his hand at a multitude of careers. As a criminal defense attorney, newspaper co-publisher, television personality, radio talk show host, film producer, and prolific author, he crossed paths with celebrities including Paul Newman, James Stewart, Jack Nicholson, Arnold Palmer and Joan Baez. But it wasn’t until losing his marriage and stepchildren to the drama of the “Knightmare,” that he could face his demons and welcome a Higher Power into his world. After falling in love again and graduating from seminary, Shaw, childless at sixty-five years old, was now ready for his destiny, one that would complete him. An inspiring and true tale filled with stories that will surprise, amuse, and move you, Road to a Miracle
will open your heart, mind and spirit to any miracle that may be winding its way toward you.
Praise for Road to a Miracle
“Mark Shaw has been fearless in following his heart.”
– Patrick Hasburgh, Author, Aspen Pulp
“Mark Shaw discovers that the double-edged sword of celebrity culture cuts both ways, forcing him to confront his own demons through a ‘Knightmare’ and then experience a miracle appearing out of nowhere.”
— Don Lattin, bestselling author, The Harvard Psychedelic Club
“What an eclectic life! From F. Lee Bailey to Pastor Rick Warren, Bobby Knight to Don Larsen, the John Denver look-alike to a blessed miracle. This is a fun read.”
— SQuire Rushnell, bestselling author, When God Winks
Our Vision
We seek stories that come from our valley and beyond. We believe that each community is made up of its own stories. These narratives act as a conduit that connects people through a bond of community and commonality. We recognize that stories come to life with time, careful cultivation and some tender, loving care. So let us help publish your story, photographs, or poems. And together, we can make history with minds wide open.
