*************************
iracles can be damned inconvenient. That’s what thirty-four-year-old stroke victim Jonathan Hooper learns when he wakes up after spending six years in a coma. Everyone calls Jonathan’s recovery a “miracle,” but since nobody had expected him to recover, his sudden awakening becomes an awkward intrusion on the lives of his family and friends. To make matters worse, Jonathan doesn’t even recognize these people. The stroke has wiped away most of Jonathan’s memory, while the coma has withered his body. In short, Jonathan’s not the man he used to be – whoever that was.
The only bright spot for Jonathan is Rebecca Chase, a young woman he meets in the hospital’s long-term recovery unit. A stroke has drastically changed her personality, making her a stranger to her husband. Gone is the vivacious trophy wife, replaced by a shy, awkward woman with a knack for saying exactly the wrong thing.
They don’t fit in. And they’ll never be the same. But now they’ve got to decide what matters most: who they were, or who they can become?
A steadily accelerating story exploring the irony, humor, and opportunity that can accompany personal calamity, Me Again follows the intertwined paths of two people forced to start over in life: one looking for his place in a world that has moved on without him, the other struggling to navigate a relationship with a man who wishes she were someone else.

*************************
eigh Thompson, the exceptionally beautiful daughter of Cheryl and the late tobacco magnate Austin Thompson, is on a solid life course, her extravagant wedding to rising Charlotte attorney and childhood friend Gene Sykes only three months away.
In her capacity as the Human Resources Manager at Falstead Inc., a large electronics parts manufacturer in the Queen City, Leigh regularly takes new employees through the orientation process, a fine tuned procedure she has established that informs and prepares everyone; no surprises, no deviation. None, that is, until the day Kyle Tilston walks through her door. He is new in town, arriving in Charlotte a month earlier behind the wheel of his ’68 Chevy II muscle car, sporting a black leather jacket and exuding a cool confident demeanor. Well built and handsome, he sits across from her, folding his hands and smiling, gazing at her flirtatiously with the most captivating eyes she has ever seen. She begins nervously going over the policies and procedures, experiencing an unknown excitement that rocks her to her core. As she fights to maintain her professional composure, he sits silently, saying nothing; but words aren’t necessary to convey his message; it’s delivered and received as if it were written down and handed to her.
After the meeting, she dismisses her reaction to him as a by- product of her monthly visitor, which had rudely arrived, unannounced and two days early, that morning.
But she encounters him again in due course of their shared employment, and the swarming butterflies in her stomach do not subside. That she would desire another man so close to her wedding – especially one of Kyle’s stripe – causes a major upheaval in her heart and mind. She struggles to keep her planned life on track, analyzing her emotions, deducing that her wayward thoughts are the result of pre-wedding jitters, and dismissing her attraction to Kyle as a regressive, childish fantasy.
But there is more to Kyle Tilston than meets the eye. Beneath the rough boy, devil may care exterior he displays to the world is a prolific writer and deep thinker, with both feet planted firmly on the ground, and both eyes on Leigh Thompson.
Before her father passed away six years ago, Leigh was a different girl; independent, adventurous and not at all sure that Gene, whom she had known since childhood, was the man she wanted to spend the rest of her life with. But her vivacious spirit was buried with her father, and in her grief she clung to the familiarity of her lifelong relationship with the budding attorney, never daring to let her heart venture forth.
Not until the moment she stared into Kyle’s amazing eyes, and felt a desire she had never known.

Prelude to Reveille: A Vietnam Awakening

*************************
ave we made things right with our Vietnam Veterans? It’s been almost one-half century since American involvement in this unpopular war, but after reading Prelude to Reveille: A Vietnam Awakening, readers understand why author S.D.Sawyer has written this novel and asked this question.
Inspired by real-life experiences of the author and her husband, this historical fiction mines the personal histories of protagonist Tom Barrington and other soldiers during this turbulent period. Tom arrived at his first assignment, The Old Guard, in Arlington, VA, in December, 1967. Months later he was ordered to Ranger School, and finally deployed to Vietnam. His young wife, Meg, juggled her career as a new teacher while adapting to regulations required of an Army wife, before entering the foreboding world of the Waiting Wife.
Wounded half-way through his tour, Tom went from combat on a jungle trail to surgery in Japan, to enrollment at a small college back home. Anti-war demonstrations and protests cordoned off returning veterans from what should have been safe soil. Ignored by institutions and support networks that had offered care to returning soldiers in past decades, these veterans could never have prepared for a peacetime home front that would prove as perilous and haunting as the theater of war they had faced in Southeast Asia.
Sawyer presents a hard contrast between the repeatedly tested valor of such noble heroes, and the chilling response to them from this once-proud country. Prelude to Reveille: A Vietnam Awakening possesses a sense of time and place that foreshadows issues still facing military families. Its tone and details make it resonate with those who lived during this era as well as future generations who will only learn of these conflicts from a history book.
Bravery and commitment to America are not limited to times of triumph and national celebration, but remain steadfast and true in the face of protracted engagement, ambiguous mission and uncertain outcome. In this tribute to our soldiers, S.D. Sawyer invokes a call for the America of today to awaken to what Vietnam War era soldiers have lived through, and realize–many still need to be welcomed back home.
