In the first of a planned series of self-help books, Grow a Mustache and Survive Divorce: An Angry Ex-Husband’s Roadmap to Recovery, Gray, a Licensed Professional Counselor and an Army veteran, shares his personal experiences as a divorce survivor and practical steps men can take to get through a breakup.
“My goals are to provide men with perspective and empathy for what they may be experiencing as they go through a divorce, educate them in processes they may be unfamiliar with, and provide them with hope for their life after a marital split,” said Gray, who served in the Army for 5 years and leverages his experience to help others process trauma and develop coping strategies.
Gray challenges his audience to look at where they are now and forgive themselves so they can achieve personal growth and movement in a positive direction. He also provides crucial tips on seeking legal advice, building a solid support system, finding new purpose outside of the normal routine, and navigating new and previous relationships.
“Men will relate to this book and gain invaluable insight on dealing with divorce in a productive, honorable, and, importantly, manly manner,” said Chris Schafer, CEO at Tactical 16 Publishing. “Corey’s book is about validation and understanding for readers coping with difficult circumstances.”

Top Cover for North America: Defending America from the Soviet Threat.
Petitmermet recounts nerve-racking days serving in the Air Force at the Galena airport, a remote forward operating base located at the former Galena Air Force Station, which 350 miles northwest of Anchorage, Alaska.
“I hope to capture the memories of that very challenging leadership role that I faced as a commander for a year during the Cold War,” explains Petitmermet, who served in the Air Force for 26 years flying fighter aircraft, testing air to air munitions and in numerous command and staff positions. “The stories in this book are based on a very detailed journal I kept during my one-year tour at Galena.”
In his second published book, Petitmermet recounts his role supporting the “Top Cover” mission, which refers to the role the Alaskan region of the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and the Alaskan Air Command had in protecting North America from any potential Russian aggression against the United States and Canada.

In this fictional comedy, Just only Slightly, the author paints a vivid picture of the humdrum life of main character, Paul Talkachev, a down-on-his luck guy living in New Jersey who discovers he is telekinetic. He can move and change objects without touching them and this is just the beginning as Paul sets out on a path of discovery and adventure.
In the book, Just only Slightly, “I set out to create a fun, voyeuristic story about Paul’s life with its blunders, adventures, small successes, and friendships,” said Landon, who served in the U.S. Navy and has been a day trader, merchant mariner, locksmith and writer.
“This story is a dark comedy banking on nervous energy amply supplied by Paul and the interactions of a man slowly dripping into madness trying to negotiate other people’s feelings and desires.”
