This is important information that men and women need to know about. In an age of increasing stress and anger, too many of us get caught in abusive relationships. This happens to men as well as women.

I'm excited to announce a new shelf, The Rainbow in the Stone, a fiction/nonfiction resource on the topic of domestic violence. My novel "Seven Blackbirds" is on it, and check out John Shore's latest addition

John Shore

This is a collection derived from a series of posts I ran on my blog (www.johnshore.com) titled "Seven Reasons Women Stay in Bad Relationships." The comments below are a sampling of the comments left by readers of that series. (If you would like to pay me a little something for this document, please see the same document on my front page, where I've asked $2.99 for it. Thanks.)

Some reader comments: "I just discovered this series of posts this morning and I honestly can’t tell you how much they mean and how serendipitous it was that I found them today of all days....Thanks again for your help in all this, it is greatly appreciated." "John, as someone who works with DV (domestic violence) victims I’d like to thank you for this great resource. There is an amazing amount of good, solid information out there on emotional/physical abuse. But your short blogs go right to the heart. Thank you so much for caring about women, encouraging us, and sharing your ideas. You’re right on." "Words can not express how proud/happy/beaming I am that you said what you said John. Just wanna fly to America and give you a big hug!!! Keep preaching preacher, we all love you." "I agree very much with what you have said here John." "I am proud to know you, John boy! You have said it so right…." "Once again, John, you have truly and bravely spoken words that many are afraid to voice. You can’t even imagine how much your blog-site on this very subject is ministering to women in this situation." "Thank you John, for opening your heart to take in some of the pain of we who carry such vile memories deep inside our still struggling and shaking psychs and emotions. You're a true brother." "John: thank thank you thank you ... so needed to be said" "Your comments here are sure to help a lot of people, not just women." "Oh my goodness you couldn’t be more right! I’m going through this right now. Thanks for the help" "Having worked in a local women's shelter, I absolutely applaud your latest opus!!!"
