Book excerpt: Two women discover friendship, adventure, and danger in a hidden world full of lost memories and magic. Eka stays in motion since losing her family, running from one adrenaline rush to the next and away from any connection. Christelle loves her close-knit family, but longs to spread her wings and explore the world away from their protectiveness. When an accident leaves Eka at Christelle’s doorstep, memories of magic, hidden within our everyday world, come flooding back to both of them. As they find themselves awakened to this new world, they also find that no one around them is aware of anything unusual, leaving them to navigate this reality together. At first, they seem unable to work with each other. Christelle is skeptical and cautious while Eka is ready to dive in blind-folded. But somehow, as they stumble through each new aspect of the magic, Eka finds herself trusting someone for the first time, while Christelle begins to find a strength outside her family. And, as their friendship grows, unique magical abilities grow within them. But soon a dangerous and destructive force, connected to their lost past, returns, destroying people around them and dredging up the darkest moments of their lives. When this force takes a personal interest in the two, both women will need to draw on their wits and fledgling magic if they have any chance of stopping it. But will their new abilities be strong enough when that moment arrives? Or will their newly discovered fears from the past cause them to fall back on old ways and destroy the friendship they’ll need to save themselves and everyone they love. If you enjoy light-hearted fantasy adventures with plenty of action and strong friendships, you'll love the Adventures of Eka and Christelle.

This book was released on 2021-12-22 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now that Eka and Christelle have survived the rediscovery of the magical world erased from their memories as children, the family betrayal that led to their lost childhoods, and attacks by a celestial being from another universe along with his minions, you’d think they deserved a really long vacation. Nope. Now, as they settle into their new found magical abilities and world, they must confront new challenges and dangers as they return to Eka’s paternal home, Hawaii. Eka is no longer running from the most devastating moment in her life, the night her parents and brother died. But now, as she’s forced to deal with her father’s Waker family, her hybrid magic still refuses to fit into the Waker mold, leaving her an outsider again, while yet another Waker community reminds her how much she isn’t like them. Especially her grandmother, Haipo. And how can Eka help Christelle in the fight against Lintu if no one is able, or willing, to help her understand her magical abilities? Even if she could use her magic, with Lintu interested in her abilities, maybe she’s better off moving under his rader. Unfortunately, Christelle charges headfirst into any conflict with him and Eka can’t just let her best friend go it alone. On top of that, Eka begins to wonder if her brother might have survived, instead of dying with her parents. Can she believe the grandmother that wanted her destroyed? Christelle is determined to stop Lintu from hurting another living being. With her gifts now at a celestial level, she believes she has the power to stop him. Unfortunately, as strong as they are, these new abilities are not quite working for her. She needs Gaia to help her get them under control, but the only way to reach her seems to be a scavenger hunt/rally where the prize comes from Gaia herself. But to compete she has to do the one thing she thought she’d never do since learning that her Waker family had betrayed her. Work with Wakers. This might just be one of the hardest thing she’s ever done without loosing her mind. If you enjoy light-hearted fantasy adventures with plenty of action and strong friendships, you'll love the Adventures of Eka and Christelle.

Book excerpt: One of the revelations with photography is that monochrome images often enable us to see the world and people in new, and often deeper, ways. Colour is such a dominant part of our vision that we often overlook more subtle variations in tones and textures.This book is a companion volume to the colour book "Rewilding the Human Spirit", but instead of repeating the contemporary narrative contained in that book, this work includes a range of directly relevant quotations which show and help to explain humans' deep and intrinsic connection to our natural world.The importance of landscape, nature and our natural world is shown both through these quotations and through just over 130 monochrome fine art nude images, involving 15 different women aged 24 to 43. The works have been shot in a range of natural locations around Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite her parents' struggles with addiction, Lilly Dancyger always thought of her childhood as a happy one. But what happens when a journalist interrogates her own rosy memories to reveal the instability around the edges? Dancyger's father, Joe Schactman, was part of the iconic 1980s East Village art scene. He created provocative sculptures out of found materials like animal bones, human hair, and broken glass, and brought his young daughter into his gritty, iconoclastic world. She idolized him—despite the escalating heroin addiction that sometimes overshadowed his creative passion. When Schactman died suddenly, just as Dancyger was entering adolescence, she went into her own self-destructive spiral, raging against a world that had taken her father away. As an adult, Dancyger began to question the mythology she'd created about her father—the brilliant artist, struck down in his prime. Using his sculptures, paintings, and prints as a guide, Dancyger sought out the characters from his world who could help her decode the language of her father's work to find the truth of who he really was.
