Book Description
Some people keep journals - with daily entries being tallied everyday - while others write poetry and fiction short stories, as well as getting the occasional tattoo. All of these contain clues into their daily lives, emotional and physical journeys, and chronicles of their newest epiphanies, accomplishments, realizations, and milestones - small, medium, and large. Run on sentence much? This book, Michael DeBenedictis' sixth self-published volume - a collection of poems and fiction short stories - does just that. It also contains pieces that reach out to others to tell of observations and stories that encompass experiences of the collective "everyone else" and "others", as well as snippets of daily life in his own small town though his eyes. There also exists a personal journal - sitting atop one of his bookcases - that isn't necessarily written in every day, but will still not see the light of day, however.

Book Description
Fiction. With raw, lyrical ferocity, ALL THE COMFORT SIN CAN PROVIDE delves into the beguiling salve that sin can promise--tracing those hidden places most of us are afraid to acknowledge. In this collection of brutally unsentimental short stories, Grant Faulkner chronicles dreamers, addicts, and lost souls who have trusted too much in wayward love, the perilous balm of substances, or the unchecked hungers of others, but who are determined to find salvation in their odd definitions of transcendence. Taking us from hot Arizona highways to cold Iowa hotel rooms, from the freedoms of the backwoods of New Mexico to the damnations of slick New York City law firms, Faulkner creates a shard-sharp mosaic of desire that careens off the page--honest, cutting, and wise.

Book Description
If you haven't had the luxury of experiencing a person in presence, conversation, and (mis)adventures simply read their work with an open mind and forgiving spirit. Truth and thought-provoking dialogue are most forthcoming when one is made to write it down and reflect upon it, making it impossible to lie to oneself, or anyone else. This writer finds that autobiographical material is the most honest and unwatered down (or puffed up) when it is the stuff of (sup)planted source details for fiction and poetry work. There it can be found purposefully and subconsciously left at or just below the surface, for the sake of discovery. Other times it is a capture - for personal and scientific study and understanding - and release method. This book's material is no different. It is full of interesting and humorous everyday observations, deep philosophical waxing, honest reflection of current life and times, and relieving exorcising of mental luggage for the sake of inspiring another and offering experiential knowledge.

Book Description
As The Giving Tree turns fifty, this timeless classic is available for the first time ever in ebook format. This digital edition allows young readers and lifelong fans to continue the legacy and love of a classic that will now reach an even wider audience. "Once there was a tree...and she loved a little boy." So begins a story of unforgettable perception, beautifully written and illustrated by the gifted and versatile Shel Silverstein. This moving parable for all ages offers a touching interpretation of the gift of giving and a serene acceptance of another's capacity to love in return. Every day the boy would come to the tree to eat her apples, swing from her branches, or slide down her trunk...and the tree was happy. But as the boy grew older he began to want more from the tree, and the tree gave and gave and gave. This is a tender story, touched with sadness, aglow with consolation. Shel Silverstein's incomparable career as a bestselling children's book author and illustrator began with Lafcadio, the Lion Who Shot Back. He is also the creator of picture books including A Giraffe and a Half, Who Wants a Cheap Rhinoceros?, The Missing Piece, The Missing Piece Meets the Big O, and the perennial favorite The Giving Tree, and of classic poetry collections such as Where the Sidewalk Ends, A Light in the Attic, Falling Up, Every Thing On It, Don't Bump the Glump!, and Runny Babbit. And don't miss the other Shel Silverstein ebooks, Where the Sidewalk Ends and A Light in the Attic!

Book Description
Poetry. LGBT Studies. Politics. Ecopoetics. Covers letterpressed by the author. Mycelium is the largest organism on the planet. It is the collective root structure from which all mushrooms emerge. It lives three inches under the ground and can span for thousands of acres. Any of its threads can connect to the collective body at any point. ALMOST ANY SHIT WILL DO pulls language from mycelium studies to investigate the underground of political unrest, from its emergence as riots to the single moment of impact: a body in protest thrown to the ground by the cop. How can we mark the shifting boundary between the individual and the movement in the midst of a riot? It is in the continuous attempt to define these terms that we begin to articulate the utopia that is always already happening, three inches below the surface. "This is the space of the underground, where the intersection evidences the site of violence as a weight that pulls our attention via contours in the grid. Here, the lines bend around the individual and extend that body into the multitude: the movement, ALMOST ANY SHIT WILL DO is a statement of rage, where, when pushed to the edge, we might learn the most from a silent source the ultimate Other." JH Phrydas"
