Download or read book A is for Awful written by Margaret Trimm Bachus and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My name is Margaret Trimm Bachus. For 25 years I worked as a writer, producer and director, creating professional plays for young audiences. Sixteen original productions toured to 3 million children and families throughout the Eastern United States and Canada. In 2007 my sisters and I lost our mother to Alzheimer's disease. Helplessly we watched as this "Awful" disease took her memories, her dignity, and finally her life. To deal with our loss, we explored possibilities through which we could support families and victims of Alzheimer's disease. The Sisters Trimm became our working moniker. We continue our involvement in the war against Alzheimer's disease, and are especially proud of our Save the Story Creations. This is a creative process in which families or caregivers engage their loved one in simple guided memory conversations as Alzheimer's disease wages its battle for control. Specially designed questionnaires, created by us, are returned to us and translated into "story symbols" - charms, jewels tiny collectibles, permanently affixed to a story vessel. The Save the Story vessels are beautiful, tactile pieces of art that aid in storytelling and recall. When it is time to say goodbye, these creations save the life story for generations to come. When I co-wrote a play called Vaudeville Jazz in 1982, I had never heard of Alzheimer's disease. I just knew I had a story I wanted to tell. Vaudeville Jazz explored cross-generational love between a grandpa and his granddaughter as the grandpa's memory began to fail. The play toured to thousands of children and educators. The Florida Endowment for the Humanities underwrote a statewide tour to Senior Citizen Centers where Vaudeville Jazz was followed by discussion. I could never have imagined how closely this story would parallel my own family's experience 25 years later. Revisiting the Vaudeville Jazz script after we lost our mother, The Sisters Trimm, determined that the story should be re-told in book form so it could be available to children and families everywhere. We renamed the story, A is for Awful, to better reflect the enemy we now know as Alzheimer's disease.

Download or read book Everybody Is Awful written by Jim Florentine and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rant-ish memoir by the veteran stand-up comedian and former cohost of That Metal Show, with a foreword by Jim Norton. Twitter Trolls. Facebook Freaks. Instagram Exhibitionists. These are just a few of the creatures our technology-obsessed culture has spawned in its quest to simplify our lives. The madness is so universal now that everyone has dealt with it. You log in to Facebook, read a stupid post, and immediately want to tell your "friend" to go have relations with himself. Sure, social media may keep us connected, but it is a breeding ground for idiots, and these idiots have crowd-sourced a storm of useless information, corny jokes, and douchebag drama that's wasting our time and screwing with our peace of mind. Thankfully, popular comedian and television host Jim Florentine has a solution for those of us on the verge of bashing our iPhones to bits. In Everybody Is Awful, Florentine attacks awful people and awful situations with the same biting satire and cringe-worthy humor that made him famous on television shows like Crank Yankers, Meet the Creeps, and That Metal Show. Along the way, Everybody Is Awful takes readers through the author's formative years, a time filled with rebellion and horrible behavior, to the crazy early days of his career as a stand-up comedian. Florentine also recounts how he developed an obsession with pranks that morphed into his uniquely vigilante style of comedy and made him one of the most legendary prank callers of all time. Florentine excels at channeling the core rage we all feel at the seemingly small annoyances of life, and his fans love the cathartic experience of his hilarious ranting and raving, a tradition continued in Everybody Is Awful. Acting as a de facto therapist, Florentine diagnoses awful behavior, shames awful people, and offers comedic takes on how to reclaim our lives from it all.

Download or read book The Awful Abbey written by Dorothy R. Kliewer and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2001-12 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deedra Masefield has the reputation of being a tough investigative reporter, though if the truth be known to the public, she's a gal who has suffered rejection and emotional pain, who cries into her pillow in the depths of night, and allows only her tough image to show. In this mystery, Deedra is sent by her newspaper's editor to a small town in northern California to learn why a famous movie actress remains strangely out of touch with friends and Hollywood. Her last known address was a place called Anthea Abbey where her eccentric/inventor husband, Ricardo Embustero, state that "he could invent without disturbing near neighbors, and where Sharlee could have a castle of her own." However, if Sharlee Devon has a castle, it appears that she is captive there. A newspaper delivery boy disappears after reporting the finding of a note thrown out of an upstairs window of the old abbey by Sharlee. There are rumors in town about a ghost-nun and a huge mutant boy, and townsfolk avoid the area. Deedra visits the abbey where she unexpectedly meets, Hannah, a tall person with an elongated nose and a perpetual post-nasal drip. Hannah wears full-length black dresses reminiscent of the nuns of a by-gone age, and gives the impression that she is Ricardo's sister. Deedra's man and colleague, Deke Thomas, arrives to help, then Deedra recalls that he and Sharlee Devon were once lovers. Again she is smote with the fact that Deke is not the marrying kind, and renews her vow to hunt for "Mr. Right." When at last Deedra rescues Sharlee Devon, and earns that front-page story, her pillow is the only witness of her not-so-tough image.
Download or read book Everything Is Awful written by Matt Bellassai and published by Atria/Keywords Press. This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the break-out star of BuzzFeed comes a collection of hilariously anguished essays chronicling awful and humiliating moments from his life so far, proving “the mantra of his life and career: being a human is hard work, so you may as well make your story funny when you can” (Bustle). Matt Bellassai has no idea what he’s doing. Well, to be fair, he did become semi-Internet famous by getting drunk at work, making him a socially acceptable—nay—professional alcoholic. He’s got some things figured out. But the rest is all just a terrible, disgusting mess. This is Matt’s book. Just to clarify, though, it is absolutely not a memoir; Matt is far too young to have done anything worth remembering (though he did win an actual People’s Choice Award for his BuzzFeed web series, “Whine About It,” which is pretty good, if you ask his mother). This is also most certainly not a book of advice; he is too woefully ill-prepared for life to offer anything in the way of counsel. Call this a collection of awful moments that led to his grumbling, blundering adulthood—a chronicle of little indignities that, when taken together, amount to a life of hilarious anguish. With keen wit and plenty of self-deprecation, Matt reveals how hard it is to shed his past as the Midwest’s biggest nerd, and how he came out to his friends and family (the closet was a bit messy). Matt also wrestles with the humiliations of adulthood, like giving up on love in New York City, and combating the inner voice that tells him to say aloud all the things the rest of us are smart enough to keep to ourselves. You probably don’t need this book, but let’s be honest—you do. Since you’re already reading, you might as well pull up a chair, grab your glass(es) of wine, and enjoy.
