Home Is Where The Hummingbird Lives: 

Surviving Homeownership



One Woman. One Large Bank. One Extraordinary Outcome. 

Home is Where the Hummingbird Lives is the true story of a single mother who found herself unable to pay her mortgage after being struck by someone driving blindly through an intersection. This accident would be a swift blow to Sophia’s business and change the trajectory of her life. On the brink of losing her home, she fought Wells Fargo Bank for over half a decade in an effort to receive the lender support promised after the big bank bailout. What Sophia found through her years as a crusader for the American homeowner was a maze of deceit, lies, and banking transgressions that would only be uncovered by her battle, and subsequent win, against Wells Fargo Bank.

This raw and empowering memoir details her journey as she uncovers the truth about the largest banks in America and shines a light on the many individuals who fed off the systemic looting being carried out by the big banks. There is simply not enough information out there to help the people of this country understand the long ranging devastation caused by the housing crisis—we the people did not just temporarily bail the banks out of the catastrophe of 2008—the taxpayers are now in a constant stasis of being drained by The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act. The bailout is ongoing, and the banks are earmarked to receive additional trillions. Few realize how little the big banks were regulated or how easy it would be for them to repeat history. This book offers concrete solutions to help individuals and families cope with economic uncertainty and mortgage misconduct woven together by Sophia’s determination and resilience as she fought to save her home. 

“The author shares her vulnerability as a woman and a mother, in the midst of her drawn-out home loan modification battle with Wells Fargo Bank. By the end of this book, you will be inspired by her story—you might even come to the realization that you also will fight for what is right in the future.” - Dixie Crane 

“Hindsight guides us into the future, so be aware of the lessons learned in Home is Where the Hummingbird Lives. The greatest lessons learned are accomplished through living and the wisdom provided by those who willingly share their past.”
- John (Jack) W. Galardi, Esq.

The Revenant's Mark

  The Revenant's Mark A dark historical fantasy novel set during the American Revolution Jacob Hawthorne was hanged as a traitor—forgotten by the cause he fought for, buried in a shallow grave by those he fought against. But death didn’t keep him. The forest brought him back. Now bound to an ancient and wild power, Jacob walks again as a revenant—something more than man, less than myth. Haunted by visions and a mysterious mark burned beneath his ribs, he joins two rebel soldiers on a perilous journey through war-torn colonies and spirit-haunted woods. As the Revolutionary War rages, a secret faction known as the Golden Circle seeks to harness the power of the forest spirits for their own ends—twisting the old magicks into a weapon neither crown nor colony can stop. Jacob must reckon with what he’s become, what he was brought back to do, and whether the soul of a dead man can still choose the right side. Epic in scope and grounded in grit,  The Revenant’s Mark  blends dark...

Proof of the Existence of God: Confronting Science

  Proof of the Existence of God: Confronting Science WHEN FAITH CONFRONTS SCIENCE Dare to question, but be ready to believe. “Does God Exist?” This is an age-old debate. Interestingly, those who say “No” often cite science as the basis for their opinion. They openly state that “There is no proof of the existence of God.” However, there is proof of the existence of God. There is more than ample proof of His existence. There is more evidence than anyone will ever need if one was willing to look in the right places, if one was open to that proof, and if one does not block or eliminate the proof or otherwise redefine or pre-determine the scientific criteria despite the evidence. Carl Sagan once wrote, “Extraordinary claims, require extraordinary evidence.”  This book presents Ten Observable, Demonstrable, and Verifiable sets of facts that prove the existence of God. Not one, not two, but ten. Any one set of these proofs by itself would demonstrate it, but together they provide ove...
