Book excerpt: From the author of the #1 New York Times bestsellers Small Great Things and Mad Honey, a novel exploring the story of a young woman overcome by the demands of having a family. Paige has only a few vivid memories of her mother, who abandoned her at five years old. Now, having left her father behind in Chicago for dreams of art school and marriage to an ambitious young doctor, she finds herself with a child of her own. But her mother's absence and shameful memories of her past force her to doubt whether she could ever be capable of bringing joy and meaning into the life of her child, gifts her own mother never gave.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A great majority of European music written before 1750 is for voices but remains understudied and underperformed. It includes music for groups of voices and solo voices, with and without instruments, music for the church and the theater, for the court and the chamber, as well as music in different languages and with different national styles. In So You Want to Sing Early Music, Martha Elliott introduces this remarkably rich and varied repertoire within a historical context for the 21st century singer. Focusing on music from the 17th and early 18th centuries, this book offers guidance on style and ornamentation, working with vocal and instrumental colleagues, reading manuscripts and edited editions of scores. Elliot shares advice for how to handle the different kinds of early music performance situations in which singers might find themselves, as well as where to find workshops and performance opportunities. Equally helpful to the classically trained solo singer or amateur choral singer, So You Want to Sing Early Music will allow them to broaden their repertoire and build their stylistic toolbox. Additional chapters by Scott McCoy and Wendy LeBorgne address universal questions of voice science, pedagogy, and vocal health,. The So You Want to Sing seriesis produced in partnership with the National Association of Teachers of Singing. Like all books in the series, So You Want to Sing Early Music features online supplemental material on the NATS website.

Book excerpt: "In The First Pressing: Poetry of the Everyday, Donna Wahlert takes us on a journey through the four seasons of life, capturing tiny moments of everyday living. She carries us from the specific to the universal; with eloquence, clarity, and depth of spirit." -June Cotner, author of Graces, Wedding Blessings, and one dozen other inspirational anthologies. Whether Donna Wahlert writes about attending the spring birth of her granddaughter or finding a newly born fawn at her front door; or describes summer work in a bakery selling wedding cakes, or the mysteries of the Mississippi River; or hints at the autumn anxiety of a child going off to college or the contentment of rocking a grandchild against a harvest moon; or the grief of the wintry years of her mother's Alzheimer's disease, she leads us through complete seasons of emotion. She evokes the events of our own lives in such a way that we are touched to the very core. She writes about the moments of the everyday that we are experiencing but are unable to describe in her unique and touching way. She pilots us through awe and wistfulness, through fear and loss, and leads us back to hope, fulfillment and grace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sea glittered in all directions. The grassy field, humpy with knolls and lumpy with gray rock, sloped down toward the near-by water. Bunches of savin and bay and groups of Christmas trees flourished in the fresh June air, and exhilarating balsamic odors assailed Miss Burridge's nostrils as she stood in the doorway viewing the landscape o'er and reflectively picking her teeth with a pin. "It's an awful sightly place to fail in, anyway," she thought. Her one boarder came and stood beside her. She was a young woman with a creamy skin, regular features, dark, dreaming eyes, and a pleasant, slow smile. "Are you gathering inspiration, Miss Burridge?" she asked, settling a white tam-o'-shanter on her smooth brown locks. "I hope so, Miss Wilbur. I need it." "How could any one help it!" was Diana Wilbur's soft exclamation, as she took a deep breath and gazed at the illimitable be-diamonded blue. Priscilla Burridge turned her middle-aged gaze upon the enthusiasm of the twentieth year beside her.
