Our new web site will be growing by leaps and bounds for the next few weeks. We've got a ton of great raw material to share about Julienne Eden Busic's incredible memoir Lovers & Madmen.
While you're here, be sure to check out Voices from the Street: Truths about Homelessness from Sisters Of The Road. Having just finished Thanksgiving dinner and taking time to appreciate the bounty in our own lives, now is an excellent time to consider how to address the social and personal challenges in the lives of others. Voices from the Street is a unique and highly useful look directly into the lives of those experiencing homelessness.
We publish practical information for strong communities on social justice, criminal justice, and community development. With a bit of more explanation, our books are meant for the general population; people who want useful guidance on important topics of social construction without being preached to. We give you the information, you make up your mind.
Gray Sunshine started in the beautiful Pacific Northwest in Vancouver, Washington. It's the place that inspired our name. We're now in Utah so our publisher can live close to his siblings and mother.
We're just waiting for ink on the final papers before we announce an exciting new book. Check back soon for this great new addition to Gray Sunshine family.
If you like wholesome reading and soothing, beautiful art, then you'll want to visit our imprint Sofa Ink.

Finally the new site is coming on line. Not only does the new site look better, it also makes it easier for you to find the information you want. Over the next few weeks we'll be adding a great deal. Please be patient.
On 10 September 1976, Julienne was one of five hijackers of TWA flight 355. Though a desperately needed insight into how and why a person becomes involved in "terrorist" acts, this book is also a gripping personal narrative exploring how a young woman from a small Oregon coast town became the wife of a Croatian dissident and a revolutionary.
The book is a candid, guided exploration of homelessness—poignant and powerful. The book aspires beyond mere literary voyeurism. Monica Beemer, Executive Director of Sisters Of The Road explains, "Our hope is that we will build a sense of community, relationship, compassion, and awareness." This book connects readers to individuals, not to ideas, theories, or politics—real individuals whose stories and thoughts will enrich readers' lives.
The author provides a thematic narration that weaves together the interviews selected from more than 500 conducted by Sisters Of The Road with individuals experiencing homelessness. The book's 364 pages also include compelling photographs and family maps.
