Claw Your Way to the Top by Dave Barry

Claw Your Way to the Top by Dave Barry

Lizanne Dyer has spent many years fighting her demons-some of which she has conquered and others she continues to battle. Through introspective reflection and years of focusing on growing personally, Lizanne now realizes that her struggles have made her stronger and helped her accept herself for who she is without the need for external validation. In a poignant collection of poems that reflect on her path through life to date, Lizanne leads others through the five stages of grief in order to illustrate that when we stay the course and push through, no matter how difficult the struggle, there is peace and joy at the end of the journey. After explaining each stage, Lizanne shares poems that explore the emotions related to denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and eventually acceptance. Throughout her collection, Lizanne gently reminds all of us that it is okay to feel vulnerable-for it is in those moments that we are most human. & Life Goes On shares a volume of poems that provides a glimpse into one woman's lyrical story as she freed herself from the bondage of depression and healed her heart.

Dave Barry is a humor columnist. For 25 years he was a syndicated columnist whose work appeared in more than 500 newspapers in the United States and abroad. In 1988 he won the Pulitzer Prize for Commentary. Many people are still trying to figure out how this happened.

Dave has also written a total of 25 books, although virtually none of them contain useful information. Two of his books were used as the basis for the CBS TV sitcom Dave's World, in which Harry Anderson played a much taller version of Dave.

Dave plays lead guitar in a literary rock band called the Rock Bottom Remainders, whose other members include Stephen King, Amy Tan, Ridley Pearson and Mitch Albom. They are not musically skilled, but they are extremely loud. Dave has also made many TV appearances, including one on the David Letterman show where he proved that it is possible to set fire to a pair of men's underpants with a Barbie doll.

In his spare time, Dave is a candidate for president of the United States. If elected, his highest priority will be to seek the death penalty for whoever is responsible for making Americans install low-flow toilets.

Dave lives in Miami, Florida, with his wife, Michelle, a sportswriter. He has a son, Rob, and a daughter, Sophie, neither of whom thinks he's funny.
