Being Broken
When life cracks, what do you do with the pieces? Being Broken is a contemporary, voice-driven novel about a man who loses what he loves and must learn how to live again.
Told in candid, short scenes, it traces his struggle with anxiety, looping thoughts, and the habits that keep him stuck—and the small, stubborn courage it takes to move forward. He works, he parents, he prays, and he tries again. There are setbacks. There are quiet wins.
The pages feel like a late-night conversation with a friend who finally tells the truth. No melodrama. No easy fixes. Just honesty, grace, and the slow work of healing. Grounded in everyday life and faith, it’s contemporary literary fiction with heart. If you’ve ever felt broken, this story will make you feel seen—and remind you that cracks can let the light in.
If you like stories that are real, emotional, and straight to the point—this one’s for you. It’s the kind of book that won’t necessarily make you “feel good,” but it might make you feel understood.

The Box Salesman
The Box Salesman is a riveting story of heartbreak, tragedy, and success. The author writes: “The Box Salesman” focuses on a recent college graduate named Evan Billings, who is an aspiring songwriter. He accepts a position with a paper and packaging company to make ends meet, but he actually longs for recognition and success for his creative side. Through a series of broken relationships, brushes with the law, and substance abuse, Evan seeks to find his way. Set mostly in the New York City of the 1980s, Evan learns to deal with heartbreak and tragedy and eventually finds his true calling. Published by Page Publishing, Scott Jameson Sanders’ engaging tale is the perfect match for any avid fiction enthusiast.
I can highly recommend “The Box Salesman” for readers of all ages. However, I’m sure it will strike harder for those who are 20 and older because no matter what generation the reader is from, the human struggle of facing adult life that Evan goes through is timeless and common to all.
