Download or read book Please Scream Inside Your Heart written by Dave Pell and published by Hachette Go. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the publisher of the NextDraft newsletter comes a cathartic and humorous ride through the unnerving, maddening hellscape of the 2020 press cycle, reestablishing the line between "real" news and real life. Please lower your shoulder restraint and keep your hands and feet in. You’re about to board a roller coaster ride through a year that was at once laughable and lethal. If you’ve got an anti-anxiety prescription, now would probably be a good time to call in a refill. Please Scream Inside Your Heart is a time capsule; a real-time ride through the maddening hell that was the 2020 news cycle—when historic turmoil and media mania stretched American sanity, democracy, and toilet paper. Who better to examine this unhinged period in all of its twists and turns than news addict Dave Pell, aka the internet’s Managing Editor? Fueled by the wisdom and advice of his two Holocaust-surviving parents, for whom parts of this story were all too familiar, Pell puts the key stories of 2020 into context with pith and punch; highlighting turning points that widened America’s divisions, deepened our obsession with a media-driven civil war, and nearly knocked the country off its tracks. Pell also examines the role of technology in society—and how we somehow built the exact opposite of what we thought we were building. Why did the lies spread faster than the truth? How did our tech addiction contribute to the nightmare? Why do you feel a vibration in your pocket right now? In 2020, the news was everywhere, and everything was political—even the air we breathed. So brace yourself as you’re hurtled through the twists and turns of the corkscrewiest year in American history; one that included two impeachment trials, a global pandemic, Black Lives Matter, the biggest election of a lifetime, a slide towards autocracy, and a warning from the makers of Lysol not to drink their products.

That's how long Coyote and her dad, Rodeo, have lived on the road in an old school bus, criss-crossing the nation. It's also how long ago Coyote lost her mom and two sisters in a car crash. Coyote hasn’t been home in all that time, but when she learns that the park in her old neighborhood is being demolished—the very same park where she, her mom, and her sisters buried a treasured memory box—she devises an elaborate plan to get her dad to drive 3,600 miles back to Washington state in four days...without him realizing it. Along the way, they'll pick up a strange crew of misfit travelers. Lester has a lady love to meet. Salvador and his mom are looking to start over. Val needs a safe place to be herself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coyote Tales is about a coyote and his coat. Coyote looks like any other coyote at first sight. His coat is fur on the outside, but it turns into a different coat when need be. This coat has many pockets with all the answers to any questions you might have, and that is where the adventure begins. In Coyote Tales, Coyote meets Little Warrior, not yet six winters old, who couldn't find his parents. Then he meets Ophelia, an octopus that has found herself out of the ocean and in a place she has never been. She has many experiences. And lastly, Coyote meets his old friend Raccoon who also lives in the woods. They take a trip to town and get into all kinds of trouble. Fortunately, Coyote has his other coat, and they all find answers there. Coyote is a jokester, and he brings about balance of wisdom and folly. Writing Coyote Tales was one of the best experiences of my life. I thank God for them as I know he had a very big hand in the writing of them. I hope they bring laughter and joy to all who read them.
Download or read book I Am Coyote written by Geri Vistein and published by Tilbury House Publishers and Cadent Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-09 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coyote is three years old when she leaves her family in Algonquin Provincial Park in Ontario and embarks on a 500-mile odyssey eastward in search of a territory of her own and a mate to share it with. Journeying by night through the dead of winter, she endures extreme cold, hunger, and a harrowing crossing of the St. Lawrence River in Montreal before her cries of loneliness are finally answered in the wilds of Maine. The mate she finds must gnaw off a paw to escape a trap. The first coyotes in the northern U.S., they raise pups (losing several), experience summer plenty, winter hardship, playfulness, and unmistakable love and grief. Blending science and imagination with magical results, this story tells how coyotes may have populated a land desperately in need of a keystone predator, and no one who reads it will doubt the value of their ecological role. Told through the eyes of a coyote, this is a riveting story with mythic dimensions. A work of creative nonfiction that adheres to the highest standards of wildlife biology. With deep insights into wild canine behavior, penetrates the veil of “otherness” that separates us from the animals with whom we share the planet. An appendix explores the history and current status of coyotes in North America. Native Americans considered them tricksters, messengers, and companions. Given the disappearance of wolves, they are even more critical to ecosystem health today. The author explains how, without coyotes, prey species are weakened by disease and parasites. Geri Vistein speaks extensively about coyote-human interactions to a variety of audiences. She is a nationally recognized expert on the topic and maintains the website CoyoteLivesInMaine.com.

He's horrified by what he finds: a company--guided by the ruthless vision of its founder, Evan Bone--that seems to be making journalism itself redundant. Appalled, he decides to abandon the project and return home. But as he leaves he has a disconcerting encounter that sends him off in a totally different direction. Soon he finds himself embarked on an increasingly fraught and dangerous mission. The aim: to uncover the murky truth about Evan Bone's past and his pathological disregard for the human cost of the behemoth he has created. Robert's quest takes him from San Francisco to a small college town in the Midwest, to the site of a former hippie commune in northern California, introducing us to a range of vivid characters, and confronting us with the price we pay--online trolling; the loss of privacy; professional ruin--for living in an "interconnected" world. Finally, he makes a startling discovery--and is thrown into a completely unforeseen existential dilemma. A timely, stylishly written, and brilliantly conceived metaphysical thriller, Coyote Fork carries us on an unforgettable journey, before bringing us face to face with the darkness at the heart of Silicon Valley itself.
