Hungry for Life by Rachel Richards  

About Hungry for Life
My memoir begins at my college graduation ceremony, when I admonished myself for failing to feel the exuberance that such a day should elicit. I observed, as if from far away, excitement all around me. I was about to graduate with honors and a degree in theater. But how will I pursue acting when I weigh a mere 69 pounds?

My story then jumps back to kindergarten, where I was punished regularly. No one seemed to notice how unusually troubled and angry I was at only five years old.

I spiraled downward into the creepy depths of anorexia nervosa, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. At school, I was bullied relentlessly. By eight years old I was restricting food and studying late into the night in order to get perfect grades. I became obsessed with even numbers and exhibited bizarre compulsive rituals, like repeating everything I said, and exhaling whenever I walked through a doorway.

My self-destructive behaviors were a desperate attempt to gain control in a world I perceived as chaotic and terrifying. As I grew to hate myself more and more, these behaviors also served to satisfy my need for punishment. I had no words to communicate what I was feeling, since I couldn’t understand it myself.

My cries for help went unanswered by my parents and teachers, until at eleven years old I ran away and was physically forced back home by the police. I was hospitalized and told it was to protect me from injuring myself.

After that, my parents tried sending me to several different psychotherapists, each one worse than the last. Dr. Argyles always put his smelly feet up on the coffee table and took personal calls during our sessions. Dr. Discipline was convinced that all my problems were due to a lack of parental discipline.

I threw nightly temper tantrums and often tried hurting myself ―cutting my fingers, banging my head into a wall, and suffocating myself with a pillow. I wanted the physical pain to dull the agony I was feeling inside. It didn’t.

I felt as though a war had broken out in my head―an endless battle between good and evil, healthy and sick, and life and death. The healthy part of me wanted to fight the sickness that had invaded my mind, but that monster grew stronger and rational Rachel lost her footing.

My despair erupted in hatred towards the people who loved me most. My big sister, Valerie, was obese, which disgusted me. I refused to speak to her for over a year. I also turned on my Dad, especially after he hit me to try to stop me from running away.

But there was a single bright spot in my life, and it shone like a spotlight. I found joy on the stage, performing in school and community theater musicals. On stage, I could take a break from my miserable self and become someone else―someone better.

I saw a bulging belly when I looked in the mirror, and I fantasized about cutting out my stomach with one of my mom’s large kitchen knives. My starvation was a gradual process fueled by anger and fear, and driven by willpower. I was rewarded with a sense of comfort and security as my body mass was slowly replaced with emptiness. I wanted to become invisible, but at the same time I was desperate for someone to see how badly I was hurting.

The second time I ran away, it was the middle of the night and I wore only a t-shirt. I sat in the school parking lot and fantasized about being murdered and discovered the next morning in a pool of blood.

In college, I grew increasingly isolated as I wasted away. I studied obsessively and starred in many shows, but my roommate, Samantha, watched in horror as I became skeletal.

My recovery process began after junior year when my doctor sent me to the hospital despite my crying and pleading to let me go home. The reader joins me as I struggle to gain weight against my will, only to suffer relapses and be hospitalized again.

I was born healthy and grew up in a comfortable home with a loving family. So what could have caused me to develop a deadly mental illness at such an early age? The answer is as complex as the disorder itself. It took a combination of genetics, heredity, parental influence, society, environment, and circumstance to create the morbidly anorexic girl I became.

I give a detailed inside view of the fascinating and flawed recovery process, both in the hospital and out, being force-fed 4,000 calories a day, and the interesting tricks my fellow patients used to try to “beat the system.”

Throughout, I struggled with the decision of whether to end my life or fight my way through recovery and risk finding out what was on the other side. I also made unlikely friends along the way, including a six-year-old boy with a fatal illness.

It was a surprise even to myself that, after putting some pounds back on and spending all that time in recovery, I still had not recovered. Gaining weight did not erase the underlying issues that caused me to starve myself in the first place. My anorexia never stopped fighting for control over my body. It wasn’t until I had gained enough weight for my brain to function properly that the real battle began.

It took a devastating break-up with my first boyfriend, in our Harlem apartment, to realize that I needed to truly recover if I were ever to have a chance at life. Would moving back in with my parents, pursuing my acting career, and trying online dating help me win this battle once and for all?

The part of me that longed to live, to pursue my acting career, to find some happiness in life, had to finally face up to the anorexia that had long since become my identity. It was an identity that could easily kill me, but at least it was familiar and reliable. If I wasn’t anorexic, then who was I? And did I want to find out?

David Carley is retired, but does serve as one of two shepherds at the Grace and Truth Church in Cordell, Oklahoma. He holds a BS in Radio/TV broadcasting, a BA in Theology/Speech, and a Master’s in Agency Counseling. After 35 years in the Worldwide Church of God (WCG), David resigned after coming to a realization that he had spent his youth following after a perverted gospel in an oppressive legalistic church. Since the age of 21, he believed that the WCG was God’s only true Church on earth. David served as an ordained minister of the WCG for about 25 years. He first was a pastoral assistant in Nashville and Louisville. After that he pastored churches in Oklahoma, Colorado, North Carolina, and Texas. He has authored articles in various church magazines and local newspapers. After leaving WCG, David finally found spiritual rest in a grace filled church free of legalism. However, after three years of wonderful grace filled sermons, the church crossed over into preaching Universalism (all mankind is “already saved” whether or not they know Jesus. They all will be united eternally with God in heaven). After months of vainly trying correct this heresy, David withdrew his membership and helped establish a new church called Grace and Truth Church. This book is born out of David’s desire to help others in avoiding the extremes of legalism and universalism and find a proper balance at the heart of the true gospel of Christ. Only then can true freedom, peace, love, and joy as God intended be experienced in a Christian’s life.

Her small town romances center around family life, friendship, and forgiveness as they explore the issues of today’s contemporary women.

Mary should have known she’d become a writer when at age thirteen she began changing the ending to all the books she read. It took several years and a number of jobs, including registered nurse, receptionist in a swanky hair salon, accounts payable clerk, and practice manager in an OB/GYN office, for her to rediscover writing. Enter a mouse-less computer, a floppy disk, and a dream large enough to fill a zip drive. The rest of the story lives on in every book she writes.

When she’s not working on her craft or following the lives of five young adult children, Mary’s digging in the dirt with her flowers and herbs, cooking, reading, walking her rescue lab mix, Cooper, or, on the perfect day, riding off into the sunset with her very own hero/husband on his Harley Ultra Limited.

I’m a proud born-and-bred Jersey Girl with Brooklyn roots. And I still live where it all started – I married my very own alpha male eons ago, and have an amazing college-age daughter as well as an adolescent hockey playing son who charms and frustrates me at every turn. I love to read and write hot, sexy and emotional stories about people both glamorous and not-so-glamorous. Be warned – some of my characters are even downright un-heroic, which is part of what makes them so interestingly sexy, in my opinion!

On the rare occasions I’m not writing, you can catch me poking around in my other favorite twisted historical worlds of Sleepy Hollow, History Channel’s Vikings and Reign. I’m also a huge fan of Harry Potter, Highlander, Charmed, and DragonBall Z! Yeah, I know it’s a strange fandom medley, but each one features some of the sexiest villains ever. Did I mention I love villains? lol And of course, let’s not forget my beloved NY Rangers.

Richard has just completed his Supernatural Fantasy Novella, “COMPLICATIONS In The SPIRIT REALM.” The story was developed from an original screenplay written in 2006. After several Reading Reviews, it was suggested that the story might be better served as a novel.

Richard has completed numerous workshops, and seminars for creative Writing. He has certificates in both Studio, and Commercial Photography from the Germain School Of Photography, later to merge with Center Of Media Arts. Richard also holds a Certificate of Completion from the Hollywood Filmmaking from A – Z Institute, sponsored by the New York Film Academy.

Author Bio:
I, Glen E. Books (actual name), enjoy reading and writing science fiction. I earned degrees in Physics (MIT ’63), Law (Columbia ’66) and honors degrees in both Math & Biology at Rutgers (evening classes) . My passion at MIT turned out not to be Physics but rather Intercollegiate Debating against the likes of Harvard, Dartmouth and Holy Cross. Debate turned me to Law School. My first job was at Bell Telephone Laboratories ( in its glory days) and subsequently to litigation in the Bell System. My hobbies included Squash, Tennis, and Judo and coaching debate.

About AQUA

12 years to prepare for one chance to succeed…

Being afraid of failure is normal, but no one fears success except eighteen-year-old Jazwyn Ripley, who has worked her entire life for a chance to become more than the scant apprenticeships in the Seaboard North stacks can offer. It’s all too clear that at the bottom, there’s nowhere to go but down. Only the best can begin career training at Gaia Sur, the elite academy on the ocean floor, but when Jazz begins receiving cryptic messages from past Gaia cadets originating from within the earth’s core, she and her friends discover that the road to everything they’ve ever wanted now leads somewhere they never intended to go.
