Author Diane Ganzer of "Patrick the Wayward Setter" fame will be in Luck Sat Nov 15th from 11 am till 1 pm with the last in the "Patrick" series, titled "Called to Serve." This book has drawn many raves from the military, including the USMC. Luck author Chris Swanson has contributed poems to this story, which makes for some excellent reading. Check it out Saturday!

Yes, please, come and see Diane Ganzer...I have read some of her work and let me tell you, DRAMA is the name of the game! She has written of affairs/ suspense as well as stories that will make your heart tumble and turn. Along with Luck author, Chris Swanson, now there is some fine drama between the two of them as well. Don't miss out on what will be a great well spent two hours. Perhaps Chris will be kind enough to attend also and to say hi to his audience! Get your signed copy of Called to Serve, by both Diane and Chris!

Chris Swanson...if anyone out there buys his book, would you PLEASE use it for a firestarter for the wood stove? I cannot believe the unmitigated audacity that he displayed by going to the Luck library and reaming Diane out in front of everyone. REAL CONSUMMATE PROFESSIONAL there, Swanson...get yourself a lobotomy or something, you reek like rotten fish!
The name of that book of his is Celebrity Sins. Don't waste your money, give it to the poor instead, not poor Swanson, either!

So Swanson, you really don't know how to act like a man instead of a chicken SH*T coward, now do you? What you did today at the Luck Library goes against the grain of all that is good! Did Diane ruin YOUR book signing at the Luck library? no...but you had ruin hers...way to freakin' go, ROCKSTAR...what, you get that name because of the rocks up your a**? Get over yourself! To everyone NOT in the know, this sumbi*ch wrote a book called Celebrity Sins. If anyone stupid enough buys this book, please use it for trash lining or a bird cage liner, because it isn't worth the time or money to have. Swanson, I will see you rot in hell for what you did. Good luck with any writing endeavor you pursue... at this rate, you won't be writing for hemorrhoid companies!

what did I say before about DRAMA being the name of the game? YUP and there it was too, right there in the foyer at the brand new Luck Library. Mr Swanson reamed out Diane Ganzer HUGE and for what? he called her every VILE name in the book, including a F****** whore and a slut. She did absolutely NOTHING to deserve that, and she was a lady the whole time, saying nothing in retaliation. Swanson, you now have me to worry about. I will ruin your reputation worse than what your actions today did. What did you say to her? That you don't need the DRAMA? You created it today and the fur will fly for quite some time. Thanks!

to all who read this:
Diane Ganzer is NOT, nor has she ever been, Christopher Swanson's AGENT/MANAGER! It was a title HE gave to her, NOT One she asked for...the work she did for him she did so willingly, with no thought of repayment or reward. It was done out of the goodness of her heart---quite simply, her way of being unselfish. When he took complete advantage of her, much like a pimp who abuses his whores, she then struck back, but only when he backed her in a corner so tight, she felt trapped.
Chris is misrepresenting her to himself, I am here to SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT!
thank you.

Just to let everyone know...Diane Ganzer's newest book will be out before Christmas. Titled, "Walking in God's Shadow," it is about addiction recovery using equine therapy. She already has an appearance slated for the Luck Library, with an invitation by Jill Glover, director. Let's hope that any unexpected appearances by certain residents of that town are kept to a minimum. I am sure Mr Christopher Swanson will be busy on that day! Chris, if you do decide to appear, unless it's with words of praise...keep your comments to yourself!

I would like to thank all those who tuned in to KTIS AM 900 for the Along the Way episode featuring Changing Gaits. The spirit was flowing through the room as we were on air. The electrical current kept us pumped and ready to speak about the wonderful things that are happening at CGI. The book will soon be a reality....keep up to date at www.writeinyourearproductions.com .
Thank you all for your love, support and prayers. Those phone calls meant so much to Guy Kaufman and myself. If anyone would like to have us come and speak at your next event, be it a prayer group, revival meeting or just a gathering of friends, please again contact us. I can be reached at dianeganzer@yahoo.com. Guy can be reached at changinggaits@aol.com

For anyone who knows Diane, she has been through the valley of the shadow of death lately, yet with the arrival of her newest book, I do believe there is a renaissance! You can't keep a good person down, and "Walking in God's Shadow" is a great example of her courageous spirit!
Diane has been diagnosed with cancer and it isn't good. Yet there she is, going to appearances and setting up promotions! I see her calendar for next year is filling up quickly.
Good luck, Diane and don't let ANYONE get you down. Forgive those who have hurt you and move forward. Perhaps in time...four years, to be exact, the wounds will have healed and life will be better for you and for them. Till then, keep on doing what you do best....as for Christopher Swanson...Chris, she has forgiven you...hopefully someday you can also forgive her. Peace of Christmas be with all of you!!

This was in Ruben Rosario's column 12/28/08 about Diane Ganzer's newest book, "Walking in God's Shadow." This book will go far. It details the story of not only Changing Gaits, but Diane's history with Christopher Swanson and how she managed to climb back to the top after being knocked down. This book is making the waves needed to bring others the peace they need in their lives, and to help them resurface from the endless pit their lives have become.
GUY KAUFMAN AND SHADOW
Kaufman, of St. Paul, was deep into alcoholism and a life without much purpose or direction. And then he rode Shadow, a horse that changed his outlook and
prodded him into sobriety.
Kaufman, in turn, saved Shadow's life when the horse nearly strangled on a rope. Their encounter led to Changing Gaits, a 4-year-old faith-based program in Brook Park, Minn., that uses equine-assisted therapy to help substance abusers, juvenile offenders and developmentally disabled adults.
"Walking in God's Shadow,'' a book about Kaufman, the horse and the program, hit stores across the country last week.
"The definition of insanity is doing things over and over again and expecting different results,'' Kaufman said, referring to drug abuse or any self-destructive behavior. "With these horses here, it's about helping people bring out issues from the dark into the light."

Just heard that Called to Serve is being read by General Nash....if this is true...WONDERFUL! Get the kudos from the highest people who can do this book justice. The Marine Corps has a "Commandant's Reading List" as well, of which Called to Serve is being considered for that honor as well. Go for it, Diane, keep raising the bar higher, you deserve every good thing!!! Chris Swanson, once again has proved himself unworthy by having his name removed from the work that Diane so generously gave him.....why???If he was smart, he would have stayed by her side instead of demanding that what he did was worth millions. What he did would not have seen the light of day if not for Diane! Good thing they have parted ways, he was an anvil around her neck anyway!!! If anything is mentioned about so called "copyright issues," Diane owes it all.

In thanksgiving to our troops for their unselfish service, I send the following, excerpted from "Called to Serve," by Diane Ganzer (Avid Readers Publishing Group 2008)

Now look at what they've done;
They took my only son.
Shipped off to war,
To see the horror
And die for everyone
Now look at what they did
This war where no one wins.
With guns and bombs,
The dads and moms
Pray for all our sins
Now look at what they said;
This war must go ahead.
To fight for others,
Our sisters and brothers
Soon might all be dead
Now look at what they do;
This nightmare can't be true.
If I'm just dreaming,
Then why am I screaming
Till I'm red, white, and blue?
