To Live Out Loud

Posted on February 5, 2016 by The Persecution of Mildred Dunlap

Very grateful for the recommendation from A Reader Recommends. Thank you so much for featuring my book at your site.

About The Persecution of Mildred Dunlap

The year 1895 was filled with memorable historical events: the Dreyfus Affair divided France; Booker T. Washington gave his Atlanta address; Richard Olney, United States Secretary of State, expanded the effects of the Monroe Doctrine in settling a boundary dispute between the United Kingdom and Venezuela; and Oscar Wilde was tried and convicted for "gross indecency" under Britian's recently passed law that made sex between males a criminal offense. When the news of Wilde's conviction went out over telegraphs worldwide, it threw a small Nevada town into chaos. This is the story of what happened when the lives of its citizens were impacted by the news of Oscar Wildes' imprisonment. It is chronicle of hatred and prejudice with all its unintended and devastating consequences, and how love and friendship bring strength and healing. Paulette Mahurin, the author, is a Nurse Practitioner who lives in Ojai, California with her husband Terry and their two dogs--- Max and Bella. She practices women's health in a rural clinic and writes in her spare time. All profits from her book are going to animal rescue, Santa Paula Animal Shelter, the first and only no-kill shelter in Ventura County, CA, where she lives. (see links below on Ventura County Star Article & Shelter) To find out more please go the The Persecution of Mildred Dunlap on facebook or Amazon or e-mail us at the gavatar addresses. Thank you.

      Oh boy, double pawkisses to start off my Sunday. Doesn’t get much better than that. The title came from an Emile Zola quote, in response to someone asking him what he came into this life to do. His reply was, “To live out loud.” And so he did and in doing so helped rectify the biggest anti-Semitic sandal in France’s history. He was a brave man and hero. Happy Sunday to you and many pawkisses right back. ❤
