Download or read book Pulling Triggers and Pushing Daisies written by Brylle Gaviola and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-04-06 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title pulling triggers and pushing daisies, comes from two aspects of my life. One comes from a question: What's deadlier a gun or a thought that pulls the trigger? The second from a euphemism that simply means that a dead decomposing body is in a way allowing daisies to bloom. In other words, it symbolizes death. In my last book "The Monsters That Love Conquered", I had a simi-lar tone of death and killing things off, but I guess in my mind I'm just find-ing new ways to say the same things. But as I get older the meaning of love for me changes and the things I used to hold on to become more distant. I have become a professional at letting things go, but even though the meaning has changed love will and always be a factor, the shade of it just seems to get darker as the years past.

Download or read book How to Write written by Gertrude Stein and published by Courier Dover Publications. This book was released on 2018-11-14 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1931, this volume offers Gertrude Stein's reflections on the art and craft of writing. Although written in her distinctive experimental style, the book is remarkably accessible and easy to read. The modernist author's characteristic humor is borne out by some of the chapter titles, "Saving the Sentence," "Arthur a Grammar," "Regular Regularly in Narrative," and "Finally George a Vocabulary." Stein's experimental style features elements such as disconnectedness, a love of refrain and rhyme, a search for rhythm and balance, a dislike of punctuation (especially the comma), and a repetition of words and phrases. Those who are unfamiliar with her Stein's work or have found it difficult to understand will discover in How to Write an excellent entrée to a unique literary voice and an imaginative approach to language that continues to inspire writers and readers.

Download or read book Dark Genius written by Kerwin Swint and published by Union Square & Co.. This book was released on 2012-02-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roger Ailes, former Republican political consultant, and current president of Fox News Channel, is a dominant media figure of our age. His made-for-TV imagery and mastery of “style over substance” has overtaken earlier methods of reporting the news, and radically refashioned our political and communications landscapes. Yet, no book has ever been published on this Oz-like figure: Dark Genius is the definitive study of Ailes and his controversial career. The 1960 television encounter between Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy was the moment when slick television imagery began to take over politics. Ailes, a young TV producer, absorbed the lessons of the new video age, and put them into practice. While a director on “The Mike Douglas Show”, he met Richard Nixon, who soon hired Ailes to help him conquer the fledgling medium. Riding the wave of that triumph, Ailes went on to aid other key Republican figures like Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and Rudy Giuliani. In the 1990s, Ailes was hired to run CNBC, the first cable financial network, bringing a talk radio sensibility to the small screen. Then, Rupert Murdoch hired him to implement the media mogul’s vision for a different kind of cable news network. Now, with Murdoch (whose News Corp. has recently acquired the Wall Street Journal), Ailes is launching the FOX News business channel in 2007. Over the span of several decades, Ailes has played a key role in the growing reach of conservatism, first in politics, then in mass media. Part history, part media criticism, part current events, Dark Genius tracks the rise, dominance, and relevance of political television, and how it has been used and abused by its master.
