Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Poetry is alive for the duration that it is engaged. The words become latent, if not dead, the moment the reading ceases. They cannot be put on a shelf like a painting on a gallery wall and still exist. The lyrics must be split like a pomegranate and the seeds sucked out. There must be movement of air through vocal cords and neuroactivity in the brain. This is what makes poetry immediate, current. It exists only in the now," claims Noah M. Tysick. He holds an M.A. in English Language and Literature. For more information, please visit www.noahtysick.com.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daisy Ellery’s pies have a secret ingredient: The magical ability to avenge women done wrong by men. But Daisy finds herself on the receiving end in Misha Popp’s cozy series debut, a sweet-as-buttercream treat for fans of Ellery Adams and Mary Maxwell. The first time Daisy Ellery killed a man with a pie, it was an accident. Now, it’s her calling. Daisy bakes sweet vengeance into her pastries, which she and her dog Zoe deliver to the men who’ve done dirty deeds to the town’s women. But if she can’t solve the one crime that’s not of her own baking, she’ll be out of the pie pan and into the oven. Parking her Pies Before Guys mobile bakery van outside the local diner, Daisy is informed by Frank, the crusty diner owner, that someone’s been prowling around the van—and not just to inhale the delectable aroma. Already on thin icing with Frank, she finds a letter on her door, threatening to reveal her unsavory secret sideline of pie a la murder. Blackmail? But who whipped up this half-baked plot to cut a slice out of Daisy’s business? Purple-haired campus do-gooder Melly? Noel, the tender—if flaky—farm boy? Or one of the abusive men who prefer their pie without a deadly scoop of payback? The upcoming statewide pie contest could be Daisy’s big chance to help wronged women everywhere…if she doesn’t meet a sticky end first. Because Daisy knows the blackmailer won’t stop until her business is in crumbles.

With penetrating insights and pointed anecdotes, zander reveals a step-by-step pathway for living with fairness, integrity, honesty and human dignity-principles that gives us the security to adapt to the truth and the wisdom and power to take advantage of God's easy path and not our difficult ego's path. Fundamentals are the key to a successful Christian Life. Zander Johnston is a master of them. Buy his book, but most importantly . . . use it! The Journey of the Conservative Christian Zander was in his thirties when a neighbor invited him to a church in Houston. The minister there was a scholar in the languages of the Bible. The studies were very intense covering not only the original translations, but exegeting every verse to understand the time in which it was written. He never intended to write this book. It began by writing a weekly letter to folks who could not attend a regular church. This activity covered about three years. He moved from one home to another and the writing of the letters stopped. Later that year he was at a gathering of business associates who had also been the recipients of those letters. He was asked, "Did you lose my e-mail address?" "We shared those letters at church" or "I haven't received my letter that we shared on Facebook." That was only the beginning of that week of unexpected revelations. On Friday of the same week about 2 am, he heard a voice in his bedroom and he sat straight up. "You have not created anything in almost a year!" said a voice. That morning, he started writing again and adding more people to the list that he had thought were only a few dozen. To his surprise, the list grew to more than 500 people. Then for no reason, Gmail stated that it must be spam and the letters stopped again. A friend came to him and asked what happened. He told her and she said, "You have written a book and those letters are the chapters, publish it." God sent prepared people to help him with the editing and Christian Faith Publishing accepted the manuscript. You will, as all those others who first read the Sunday Letters, enjoy The Conservative Christian and no, he has not stopped writing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dave Hahn, a local of Taos, New Mexico, is a legendary figure in mountaineering. Elite members of the climbing community have likened him to the Michael Jordan, Cal Ripken, or Michael Phelps of the climbing world. The 2015 expedition he would lead came just one short year after the notorious Khumbu Icefall avalanche claimed the lives of sixteen Sherpas. Dave and his team—Sherpa sirdar Chhering Dorjee, assistant guide JJ Justman, base-camp manager Mark Tucker, and the eight clients who had trained for the privilege to attempt to summit with Dave Hahn spent weeks honing the techniques that would help keep them alive through the Icefall and the Death Zone. None of this could have prepared them for the earthquake that shook Everest and all of their lives on the morning of April 25, 2015. Shook tells their story of resilience, nerve, and survival on the deadliest day on Everest.

Download or read book Dear Mrs Fitzsimmons written by Greg Fitzsimmons and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-11-09 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PARENT S: DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME Greg Fitzsimmons has made a lot of what appear to be bad decisions. It’s what he was raised to do. Most parents would hide or destroy any evidence so clearly demonstrating their child’s failures, but—lucky for us—Greg Fitzsimmons’s family has preserved each mistake in its original envelope like a trophy in a case, lest he ever forget where he came from. Dear Mrs. Fitzsimmons is Greg’s life, told through this cavalcade of disciplinary letters, incident reports, and newspaper clippings that his parents received from teachers and school officials. Greg picks up where his parents left off with his own collection of letters received during college and throughout his successful career as a writer, producer, and stand-up comic. Revealing the larger story of how Greg’s distinctly dysfunctional Irish-American family bred him to blindly challenge anyone, anytime, anywhere, over anything, Dear Mrs. Fitzsimmons comes full circle to show that the Fitzsimmons torch has been passed on proudly to a new generation.
