"Divorce with a Pen, Not a Sword" by Leatrice Lynne Latts, JD, CPA, is like her law practice: Minding other people's business for more than 35 years (law is a great license for that). 1.In the early days, many people came to her seeking advice about troublesome marriages. Although she was not a family law lawyer, Leatrice often realized there was something missing in the advice these people were receiving. Business issues were often missed or ignored. 2.Over the years, Leatrice's law practice expanded to business and financial consulting. She was able to incorporate the experience she had received interacting with clients and businesses as a CPA. 3.She expanded her word-smithing abilities: Contracts so clear that the other side doesn't feel the need to take them to their attorney; Memorializing, as a "ghost writer", the thoughts, positions, negotiations, even speeches, and persuasions that her Clients wanted to communicate to others. 4.She focused on inter-personal communication techniques: "I" messages versus "you" messages; negotiation versus power plays; positions versus value judgments; role playing; avoiding rescue trips; finding the silver linings. 5.She employed business communication principles: Deal points versus negotiating points; good guy/ bad guy games; serving as a sounding board; keeping the doors open. 6.Gradually, Leatrice discovered her sensitivity to energy and her intuitive knowing how to help her Clients. She became a "path of least resistance", channeling the words and solutions that her Clients were meant to hear. 7.One of the attractions for Leatrice in her practice was the longevity of her relationships with her Clients- in many cases over 25 years. That gave her the opportunity to use her intuition and serve as energy psychologist; to be a consultant and business and personal coach; to focus on motivation and positive thinking; and to build on the positive results. Her Clients' success is the evidence of the accuracy of her intuition and the effectiveness of her coaching and counseling.

"Divorce with a Pen, Not a Sword" is a combination of energy psychology and the principles of business and finance. It is coaching in book form. Leatrice treats the reader like one of her Clients, turning divorce into a private negotiated partnership dissolution instead of a soap opera court battle.
