Four kittens are born. One is abandoned by her mother because she is not suitably dressed in black for a Halloween ride on a broomstick. A loving horse rescues the tiny creature, no bigger than a mouse, and she is named the Mousecat. The Mousecat has most unusual eyes, which enable the strangest, scariest, and most wonderful things to happen when she goes on her own Halloween sky ride with the Moonicorns and moonicorn fairies.

Download or read book Bury This written by Andrea Portes and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2013-12-31 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If twenty-five years can discover the internet, the cell phone, this thing called the iPod, can twenty-five years discover the secret of a girl murdered, abandoned, by the side of the road? That is the haunting premise of Bury This, an impressionistic literary thriller about the murder of a young girl in small-town Michigan in 1979. Beth Krause was by all intents a good little girl – member of the church choir, beloved daughter of doting parents, friend to the downtrodden. But dig a little deeper into any small town, and conflicts and jealousies begin to appear. And somewhere is that heady mix lies the answer to what really happened to Beth Krause. Her unsolved murder becomes the stuff of town legend, and twenty-five years later the case is re-ignited when a group of film students start making a documentary on Beth’s fateful life. The town has never fully healed over the loss of Beth, and the new investigation calls into light several key characters: her father, a WWII vet; her mother, once the toast of Manhattan; her best friend, abandoned by her mother and left to fend for herself against an abusive father; and the detective, just a rookie when the case broke, haunted by his inability to bring Beth’s murderer to justice. All of these passions will collide once the identity of Beth’s murderer is revealed, proving once again that some secrets can never stay buried.

He’s been following his late father’s dream for a life of adventure and travel—and instead encountered danger, pain, and heartbreak.

The case takes him from Fort Lauderdale’s seamy underbelly to boisterous beachfront bars where big-fish Russian émigrés launder illegal cash. Angus is back in full effect, but with great power comes great responsibility, and he’ll soon find his stake in saving these trafficked teens is more personal than he could have anticipated.

Download or read book Satire The State written by Matt Fotis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Satire & The State focuses on performance-based satire, most often seen in sketch comedy, from 1960 to the present, and explores how sketch comedy has shaped the way Americans view the president and themselves. Numerous sketch comedy portrayals of presidents that have seeped into the American consciousness – Chevy Chase’s Gerald Ford, Dana Carvey’s George H.W. Bush, and Will Ferrell’s George W. Bush all worked to shape the actual politician’s public persona. The book analyzes these sketches and many others, illustrating how comedy is at the heart of the health and function of American democracy. At its best, satire aimed at the presidency can work as a populist check on executive power, becoming one of the most important weapons for everyday Americans against tyranny and political corruption. At its worst, satire can reflect and promote racism, misogyny, and homophobia in America. Written for students of Theatre, Performance, Political Science, and Media Studies courses, as well as readers with an interest in political comedy, Satire & The State offers a deeper understanding of the relationship between comedy and the presidency, and the ways in which satire becomes a window into the culture, principles, and beliefs of a country.

This coffee table text is unique with motivating mini writing lessons accompanied by the inspiringly creative student responses. The editor is a seasoned, award winning teacher and published journalist. Thirty-six extremely motivated, enthusiastic Cape Cod summer writing workshop students inspired teacher Stephanie Boosahda to create this anthology. On the third day of the five day workshop she found herself again saying, "Those pieces were awesome. Seriously, they should be published." Responding with total silence, the students from as far away as Michigan and Kansas joined Cape Cod students in letting Stephanie's words echo, "Those pieces ... should be published."

Dunlap, Director; Buzzards Bay Writing Project, Nat'l Writing Project; University of Massachusetts - Dartmouth  "Stephanie's design of the Workshop clearly provided an atmosphere of safety, trust, and risk-taking in writing that is obvious in the breadth and depth of the selections in this anthology.
