Book excerpt: The writing of A Flutter on Earth has been a sometimes joyful, at times painful, but always illuminating excursion in to the self. Throughout the years, books of poetry have been literary companions that have deepened my appreciation for life. I value the poem as a truly unique art form. The immense power of its words seeks truth and values intimacy. The poem is a vehicle of meaning that shapes illusive thoughts and feelings in to a beautiful melody of form and content. For me, poetry is a large part of who I am and how I see the world. It is my hope that you will enjoy this book of poetry as my particular attempt to sculpt thoughts and feelings into poetic form.

Book excerpt: Another Dragon Fantasy for everyone who fell in love with the Dragon Lore Series and my other dragon-saturated books. Epic Urban Fantasy With Dragons! Clinging to their courage in a crumbling world, Aislinn and Fionn vow to save Earth, no matter what it takes. In a post-apocalyptic world where most people have been slaughtered, the Celtic gods and a few humans with magic are all that stand between survival and Earth falling into chaos. The combination of dark sorcery leveraged by the enemy is daunting. Destruction is all but certain if the small enclaves of humans who are left can’t get past their distrust of the Celts. Captured by the enemy, Aislinn Lenear wonders if she’ll ever see her bond wolf or Fionn, a Celtic god, again. She’s had nothing but her wits to rely on for years. They haven’t failed her yet, but escape from her current predicament seems remote. An enticing blend of dystopian urban fantasy and romance, this second volume of the Earth Reclaimed Series provides fertile ground for Aislinn and Fionn’s relationship to deepen. Headstrong and independent, the pair run up against each other’s demands time and time again. Fireworks spark.

Book excerpt: “One man’s search for peace and beauty in an increasingly frenetic world has never read so well or so evocatively.” —Eifion Rees, Shooting Times & Country Magazine After giving up a hectic life as a journalist in Europe and Hollywood in the late 1960s to return to his boyhood love of nature, Mike Tomkies moved to Eilean Shona, a remote island off the west coast of Scotland. There he rebuilt an abandoned croft house and began a new way of life observing nature. He tracked foxes and stags, made friends with seals, and taught an injured sparrow-hawk to hunt for itself. It was the indomitable spirit of this tiny bird that taught Tomkies what it takes for any of us to be truly free. Whether he was fishing, growing his own food, or battling through stormy seas in a tiny boat, he learned that he could survive in the harsh environment. This is the astonishing story of daring to take the first step away from urban routines and embracing a harsh yet immensely rewarding way of life which, in turn, led Tomkies to an even more remote location and inspired an acclaimed series of books on various animals and the challenges and joys of living in remote places. “The awesome extent of his struggle to build an uncomfortable but self-supporting writer’s life alone in an isolated crofter’s cottage is vividly and lyrically described.” —Sunday Express “A treasure house of outdoor knowledge . . . It should be read slowly to fully appreciate its value.” —Rennie McOwan, Scots Magazine

Book excerpt: Frank Bill is back with a gritty, wrenching novel from deep inside the traumas of a broken American heartland. Miles is a Vietnam veteran who’s worried he’s going to lose his job—and with it his tenuous grasp on a stable life—over a fight with a coworker. His PTSD and struggles to control his steroid-fueled violent tendencies also complicate his relationship with his girlfriend, Shelby, a stripper who only occasionally displays the proverbial heart of gold. She’s certainly kinder and more generous than her brother, Wylie, who has been implicated in the deaths of two local Oxy dealers and is currently on the run. When Wylie kidnaps Shelby and holes up in Miles’s country lair, it all threatens to become a bit too much for Miles. As Frank Bill peels back the layers of Miles’s history, going deep into his memories of the Vietnam War, Back to the Dirt gets to the root of the traumas that have caused Miles and his community so much adversity. In this blistering novel, Bill reaches for the core values—living close to the land, working with your hands—that have been obscured by generations of neglect, drug abuse, and desperation. This is a profound and important story of an America that is only beginning to get its due attention—and Frank Bill is its most visceral, essential chronicler.
