    About this ebook

    Stealing Happiness
    Marc
    As I’ve gotten older, I recognize that life is full of terrible irony. Lying undetected on the fringes of our day-to-day schedules, it’s everywhere-like with the love that blindsided me and destroyed my entire family. I had spent long, hard years waiting and longing for the time to come when I would be allowed to leave home, to finally escape my tyrannical crime boss mother. Then Angie filled my heart with her love and I hated it each time that I had to leave. I gave her a part of my soul, but I never really felt like it was enough to reward her properly for loving me back. When we were torn apart, the sun went out.

    Angie
    The Bradys were selfish, evil people who hurt and controlled everyone around them, except for Marc. His mind was missing the ugliness of his family. I was drawn to him with a need so strong that there was never a choice of resisting. He was my light in hell, a shield against the hate and pain I was constantly cursed with. He gave me hope, and he loved me. How could I not feel the same? When he was gone, there were no seasons, no sun.

    Marc and Angie chronicles the story of a forbidden love that brought down a crime family and crushed them all in the process.

    Who is Angela White?I published my first book in elementary school--Mystery of the Missing Tabby. The school library still has it, as far as I know. That was my first real work, where writing became solace for me.In Jr. High, a teacher told our class none of us could match the classic authors we would be studying; we weren’t good enough. I took that to heart and turned in an A- paper with a rookie mistake that prevented me from getting the respect I wanted from that lady. I hated it that she was right. I still do.I also adore her for waking my brain to the possibility that someday I might be as good as one of the iconic writers who frame the world of literature. I’ll never know if she did it intentionally, but it worked for me. I’ve never wanted to do anything else.Thanks to that drive, the fire she finished waking, I live off my writing and run my own publishing company. I have twenty novels out, and thousands of fans. It's a long way to go before children study my work in schools, but I’m still just as hot for it now as I was in that musty classroom in 7th grade.So, that’s who I am. I am building, and living, the American dream.Who are you and what have you done?That’s a hard question to answer if you’re still trying to get there. I understand. Here’s some free advice: Follow your dreams, even when the world says it’s crazy. Sometimes, you’ll find a life that satisfies you more than you ever thought was possible. Chase that, starting right now, and the next time someone asks who you are, tell them you’re an immovable force, a wild dreamer, a hopeful comet shooting toward the goals that orbit your existence. And then lift your chin. There aren’t many of us left who want to be good at what we do. Everyone else just seems to want that green shit.I now write full time and live on a small ranch with my family and our clowder of barn cats. You haven’t laughed until you’ve seen newborn kittens playing in the weeds. It’s an amazing way to begin the day. Thank you to everyone who gave me a try. I wouldn’t have this life if not for all of you. Self-sufficiency is an indescribable gift, especially when you grow up poor. May someone help each of you the way you’ve helped me.Contact Angela WhiteFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/authorangelawhiteEmail:cloudninepublications@yahoo.com

      Letters to Mum

      Mar 24, 2021

      Dear Mum, There are still times when I go to call you. It seems inexplicable to me that you actually died. I used to wonder how it would feel, and after 16 years, I’m still not sure. The main thing I want to tell you is that I get it now. I understan

      “I love my family,” I say with my voice clawing against the walls of the mud hut. Smoke plumes to the thatched ceiling and dissipates into the straws of blackened dry grass—a telling of past fires that have warmed the hut and cooked family meals. “I
