Time is flying — only 1 day (Monday) until Fallen Star: Author Activist Murderer is released.

As a friend said, this is a heartfelt story of friendship — of two women who stood beside a friend battling trauma, untreated pain from abuse, mental health struggles, and addiction.

But this isn’t just a story about friendship.

It’s the story of how unresolved trauma, violence, and devastating choices unraveled the life of a once-celebrated activist and author — and how those choices led to a 22-year plea deal behind bars for her husband's murder.

Star Myers gave Donna M Kshir written permission to write her story. She wanted to be heard.

Fallen Star: Author Activist Murderer defines who Star was — not through rumor, not through gossip — but through documented fact.

This book is part memoir, part true crime.

The memoir holds the unforgotten memories of Donna and Lee Cougardawn Roberts— the love, the loyalty, the craziness and the warning signs they didn’t yet understand.

The true crime is supported by court records, police reports, and sworn witness testimony.

This is not speculation.
This is not hearsay.
This is documented truth.

We believe that Star's story holds great importance and it needs to be told — but in their words, not Star's.

Books will be available on Amazon and/or Barnes & Noble and Lulu Publishing in paperback and Kindle/eBook formats on 6/8/26.

Not everyone clapping for you wants you to win.

Some people smile at your face and grind their teeth behind it. They copy your moves, go quiet at your wins, and get loud at your losses. They compete with you in a race you never entered.

That is not hate. That is a mirror. Their jealousy reflects everything they wish they had but never built.

Keep going. The ones who matter cheer. The ones who don't, watch.

He lived.

For thirty minutes, a child breathed outside the womb.
For thirty minutes, his heart beat.
For thirty minutes, the question of human dignity was no longer theoretical.

In For 30 Minutes, Donna M. Kshir offers a deeply reflective and faith-rooted exploration of what those minutes reveal about conscience, law, medicine, and the value of vulnerable life.

Part memorial narrative, part constitutional reflection, part ethical examination, and part devotional meditation, this book moves beyond rhetoric into reverent contemplation. It examines:

• The constitutional implications of infants born alive
• Medical ethics and the duty of care
• The spiritual foundations of human dignity
• The intersection of faith and public responsibility
• A compassionate call to action for readers in every state

Written with solemn clarity rather than outrage, For 30 Minutes invites readers to slow down, reflect deeply, and consider what responsibility follows when life is undeniably present.

This is not a book about argument.

It is a book about conscience.

Because thirty minutes can carry eternal weight.

This eBook/book is a narrative surrounding the life of Baby Samuel, a child in Queensland, Australia, who was born alive at approximately 16 weeks of gestation following an abortion procedure. Baby Samuel reportedly lived for 30 minutes outside the womb. Reports allege he was left alone in a hospital room ("the butterfly room") without receiving medical care, during which time he was observed sucking his thumb to comfort himself. The case has been highlighted by pro-life activists and politicians around the world to raise awareness about abortion laws, specifically regarding scenarios where a fetus is born alive.

Donna Kshir has crafted a well-written book that is poignant and a sad reality for many children of the world who are trapped in a cruel and abusive foster care system. Hopefully, this book helps raise awareness and action to end the suffering of these children.
