For decades, families with challenged children had nowhere to turn. Too often, the answer was an asylum, a back room, or silence—children who were never talked about, never acknowledged, never given a real chance to live.

Dream Catcher is Yvonne Mason’s powerful account of one of those children: her brother Stan, born in 1952. The world expected him to fail. Institutions and attitudes expected him to disappear.

He did not.

With honesty and heart, Mason recounts how Stan was not cast aside—not hidden, not erased—and how love and determination carved a path when the system offered none. It is a memoir of success in an era defined by failure for people with disabilities, and a reminder that every life deserves to be seen.

Dream Catcher
Failure was never an option.

Outside a world-famous drag bar, the victims keep appearing. Serial killer? Coincidence? Or something tied to the ghosts of the World Famous 82 Club and the NYC underworld?

Meet Lou—mild-mannered detective by day—and Lola—a fabulous drag queen by night. Same person. Two lives. One case that won’t let go.

Yvonne Mason serves up a fishnet-twisting “who done it?” that’s clever, hilarious, and just believable enough to feel real. Friends rally. Cops dig. And the head detective wrestles with a love/hate (or is it love?) thing with the queen who sees it all.

Who will be next on the list?

To every spouse who has endured abuse at the hands of someone you thought loved you: You are not crazy. You are not imagining things. You are not over-reacting. You are being abused.

To everyone in any kind of relationship who has asked: am I being abused if there are no bruises and they apologize after? The answer is: if you feel anything less than loved, honored, and respected in your relationship, some level of abuse is going on.

To everyone who has been gaslighted, made to feel less-than, isolated, humiliated, been given compliments that felt like insults, received the silent treatment as a form of punishment or being kept in line, manipulated, felt intimidated, or had any kind of support withheld – yet never had a hand raised against you in anger – you have been the victim of domestic violence and non-physical abuse.
