Download or read book Animal Killdom written by Alex Cooper and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-04-22 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I laughed. I cried. I hurled my faeces at my wife when she interrupted me." -- Gary Gorillason Animals are beautiful, noble creatures. They're also brutal, scheming, and skilled at ripping, bashing, and biting one another into tiny pieces. I'm sure we've all looked at a gorilla and wondered whether it could beat up a lion. How about a grizzly bear? Could an elephant stomp on a rabid weasel? (That one might not make the cut.) Animal Killdom asks the burning question: "What would happen if there was a Mixed Martial Animal Championship?" There's background info on the fighters' strengths (and weaknesses), real-life encounters, and more fun facts than you can shake a squirrel at. To top things off, the animal adversaries throw down in the arena, narrated (sort of reliably) by visionary first-time author and long-time underachiever Alex Cooper. You've seen the animal kingdom before, but never quite like this.

Download or read book The Authentic Swing written by Steven Pressfield and published by Black Irish Entertainment LLC. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Story Behind THE LEGEND OF BAGGER VANCE If you've read his books THE WAR OF ART and TURNING PRO, you know that for thirty years Steven Pressfield (GATES OF FIRE, THE AFGHAN CAMPAIGN etc.) wrote spec novel after spec novel before any publisher took him seriously. How did he finally break through? Ignoring just about every rule of commercial book publishing, Pressfield's "first" novel not only became a major bestseller (over 250,000 copies sold), it was adapted into a feature film directed by Robert Redford and starring Matt Damon, Will Smith, and Charlize Theron. Where did he get the idea? What magical something did THE LEGEND OF BAGGER VANCE have that his previous manuscripts lacked? Why did Pressfield decide to write a novel when he already had a well established screenwriting career? How does writing a publishable novel really work? Taking a page from John Steinbeck's classic JOURNAL OF A NOVEL, Steven Pressfield offers answers for these and scores of other practical writing questions in THE AUTHENTIC SWING.
