Dr. Samuel L. Malone Announces Audiobook Release of Still Here: A Journey of Grace, Recovery, and Purpose
Press Release March 11, 2026
A deeply personal memoir about recovery, identity, and rediscovering purpose.

ORLANDO, FL, March 11, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Samuel L. Malone announces the upcoming audiobook release of his powerful memoir, Still Here: A Journey of Grace, Recovery, and Purpose.

The audiobook follows the life-altering stroke Dr. Malone suffered on July 19, 2019—an event that left him unable to speak or move and permanently divided his life into "before" and "after."

In Still Here, Dr. Malone shares his deeply personal journey from a hospital bed to a renewed life of faith, resilience, and purpose. The memoir candidly details the physical and emotional challenges of recovery—relearning basic functions, confronting uncertainty, and holding onto hope when outcomes were unclear.

The book also honors those who stood beside him throughout his recovery, including his wife, Toni; his mentor, Dr. Pauline McKesson; and his late spiritual father, Bishop Samuel Smith.

More than a story of survival, Still Here captures Dr. Malone's continued pursuit of purpose, including earning his Doctorate in Humanities from TIUA and his Master's degree in Addiction Counseling from Coppin State University. These achievements reflect the heart of his message: that purpose remains possible, even after profound adversity.

This memoir speaks to anyone who has faced a serious diagnosis, loss of identity, or a season when moving forward felt impossible. At its core, it delivers a powerful reminder—purpose does not expire when circumstances become difficult.

The audiobook edition of Still Here will soon be available on Audible, Amazon, Apple Books, and other major platforms.
