Cornbread in Heaven (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781637778111)

Julie's childhood was messy, funny, frightening, and unforgettable. Between absent dads, hardworking moms, tiny houses, loud fights, long train rides, and the constant search for love and stability, she learned early how to survive-and how to keep going.

Over decades and countless jobs-from waitress to nightclub singer to minister-Julie pieces together the myth, memory, and meaning of her early life. What emerges is a portrait not just of survival, but of transformation: a story of the wounds we carry, the stories we inherit, and the unexpected grace that guides us toward healing.

Cornbread in Heaven is her honest, tender, and often quirky look back at the people and moments that shaped her. It's a story about where we come from, what we carry, and how we somehow find our way.
