It started back when I began to try to make sense of marriage and relationships as a newly married man myself. You see, I came out of what they call a 'dysfunctional family'. Now, my family was great and loving...until alcohol, divorce, and old-fashioned bitterness just drove us all to separate cities more than a day's drive apart.

It has been a slow and steady process, but as a husband for 28 years, a pastor and counselor for 24 years, and a dad for 23 years...it feels like I've piled up 75 years of experience!

Like almost everyone I read all the books and tried my best to follow all the advice; but, what I began to discover is that I wasn't being true to myself. You can only fake it so long.

One day a dear friend helped me discover the most important thing we can learn about relating; at its heart, it isn't really about the other person.

Most of what we do in all of our relationships is to try to manipulate the 'other' person into being who THEY SHOULD be---instead of who God made them to be. In the place of figuring out how to find the kind of person who will celebrate your design, you might have wondered into a person who sees you as a 'fix me upper'! All is not lost...through a fun trip from confusion to frustration to discovery---Glaen opens your eyes to a world of understanding and wisdom. The real truth about relating...and...reclaiming what has been lost, is just around the corner. Married, not married, just getting started...everyone has a way to relate to Annie as she learns from her WEIRD professor.

Glaen is a very unusual look at love and dating and marriage. It seems to be striking a nerve all across America and in all age groups. Parents especially are giving it to grateful children...who would have thought a piece of fiction could start conversations that were long overdue, and change lives that have been praying for an answer?

The most fun thing for me as a writer is to find out people are reading it...in fact they often read it twice: once for the story and again for the principles.

What will Glaen do for you when you read it?

Annie is a college grad-student who is stumped about love. Her mom and dad are in the throes of a divorce, her teenage sister is obsessed with how her boyfriend makes her look, and her closest friend Jennah is on a continual ride of running off every guy she dates. Friendships, dating, romance, and marriage – it’s all confusing to Annie until the day a white-haired stranger appears in her life.

Glaen is an unusual professor with an unusual name. Her white-haired unconventional mentor guides Annie on a path of discovery that unlocks the secrets of real relationships in a world gone phony. By abandoning herself to learn, Annie discovers the mystifying effect of how learning to tell the truth changes everything in friendship, family, and love.

The solutions Dr. Lybrand offers in this book will astound and free you to quit doing the very things that take away your ability to find the love and friendship you want. More importantly, you’ll discover a fresh path to the possibility of greater connections with those you care most about. You’ll want everyone you know to read this book...twice!

ROMANCE vs. TRUE LOVE

Glaen will help you explore the fact that romance is based on the unusual and exciting, while real relationships often involve periods of mundane and difficult things in life.  Honestly, don't you want someone who will be there when the times are challenging?  Don't you want someone cheering for you in the day-to-day, rather than constantly asking "What have you done for me lately?"  Romance is great for an evening, but Glaen tells you the secrets of what will last a lifetime.
