Book Description
I know what you're feeling right now... Chances are good, if you clicked on this title, you're confused, frustrated, overwhelmed... maybe even angry. Not because I know something about you personally. Not because I'm spying on you, or I've re-programmed your Alexa or Siri to dictate your conversations to me and keep them on my hard drive. No. I know what you're feeling, because it's the same thing we're all feeling right now. How do I know this? Because I have coached thousands of writers. Six- and seven-figure authors, major award winners, midlisters, and new authors alike. And there are patterns to what writers think and feel about our careers and our books. Those patterns are why I'm here, writing to you. If you are overwhelmed, tired, frustrated with your career or your sales... if you're stuck or stalled... come and join me inside these pages, and we'll talk about why. Why is key. We've got this. It's tackle-able. Let's get you out of this pit. - Becca

Book Description
These titles just keep getting better and better, don't they? You Need to Quit, You're in Burnout, You've Got Writer's Block... does Becca just hate people and want us all to feel bad about ourselves? Oh, no, dear writer... oh, no. Contraire mon-frere, as they say. This book is the product of work with thousands of writers on what truly holds us back from the success that we want to have. There is one thing nearly all writers have in common when it comes to success road blocks: How we handle doing it wrong. Inside this book, I outline the most common ways we either get it wrong or get it right and why those things might be happening. The goal here is to share some of the patterns I see when coaching writers, and to hopefully help when your inner voice is worried you're doing it wrong. Join me, in these pages, for a little journey through your mind... - Becca

Book Description
Censorship and book burning are still present in our lives. Lawrence Hill shares his experiences of how ignorance and the fear of ideas led a group in the Netherlands to burn the cover of his widely successful novel, The Book of Negroes, in 2011. Why do books continue to ignite such strong reactions in people in the age of the Internet? Is banning, censoring, or controlling book distribution ever justified? Hill illustrates his ideas with anecdotes and lists names of Canadian writers who faced censorship challenges in the twenty-first century, inviting conversation between those on opposite sides of these contentious issues. All who are interested in literature, freedom of expression, and human rights will enjoy reading Hill's provocative essay.

Book Description
When the masks come off, only one law matters... Half-human. Half-succubus. All work and no play. Ambitious prosecutor Lily Knight fights like a demon in the courtroom, but she's as dangerous to herself as others. Touch-starved by choice, she refuses to live beholden to any lover. "Innocent" doesn't describe Sebastian Ritter's craving for dominance in bedroom and boardroom. But one brush of his fingers over her skin tells Lily that he didn't commit the horrific crime he's charged with. With her life and secrets on the line, Lily races to find the real culprit. From the infuriating incubus who taught her to tempt and take, to intrigues and indiscretions at a masked cabaret, each unraveling thread entangles her further in a perilous game of seduction and lies. To survive, she must embrace her power, unleash her hunger, and surrender control...at the risk of becoming the monster she fears most of all. Cambion's Law offers trope-flipping paranormal suspense, modern noir fantasy, and dark romantic tension with a slow burn, subversive power dynamic grounded in mutual consent. Perfect for fans of Book of Azrael, Ninth House, and TV's Jessica Jones or Lucifer.

Book Description
"[A] 21st-century response to Herman Melville's 'Bartleby, the Scrivener.'" -NPR “A thought-provoking, drily funny critique of capitalism and the systems of self-worth that are built around it.” -TIME, “Must-Read Books of the Year” A young woman walks into an employment agency and requests a job that has the following traits: it is close to her home, and it requires no reading, no writing, and ideally, very little thinking. Her first gig--watching the hidden-camera feed of an author suspected of storing contraband goods--turns out to be inconvenient. (When can she go to the bathroom?) Her next gives way to the supernatural: announcing advertisements for shops that mysteriously disappear. As she moves from job to job--writing trivia for rice cracker packages; punching entry tickets to a purportedly haunted public park--it becomes increasingly apparent that she's not searching for the easiest job at all, but something altogether more meaningful. And when she finally discovers an alternative to the daily grind, it comes with a price. This is the first time Kikuko Tsumura--winner of Japan's most prestigious literary award--has been translated into English. There's No Such Thing as an Easy Job is as witty as it is unsettling--a jolting look at the maladies of late capitalist life through the unique and fascinating lens of modern Japanese culture.

An incendiary examination of burnout in millennials--the cultural shifts that got us here, the pressures that sustain it, and the need for drastic change

Book Description
The Vulnerable Humanitarian challenges the prevalence of stress and burnout culture within the aid sector, laying bare the issues of power, agency, security and wellbeing that continue to trouble organisations and staff. Engaging and insightful, this book illustrates the problematic and unrealistic expectations of aid workers through the archetype of the perfect humanitarian, and considers why burnout is so endemic, yet so rarely acknowledged, within aid organisations. The book provides practical means through which staff and managers can reflect upon and discuss damaging organisational cultures and behaviours, and develop a more inclusive and caring work environment. Drawing on original academic research and interviews with national and international aid workers and development experts, the book proposes a feminist, anti-racist and decolonial agenda in challenging oppressive systems and structures within the sector. With extensive professional experience as an aid worker herself, Gemma Houldey also shares her own struggles with mental health and what she has learned from feminist practices for self- and collective care. Proposing new ways of addressing wellbeing that are sensitive to the multi-faceted personalities and lived experiences of people working on aid and development programmes, The Vulnerable Humanitarian is essential reading both for current aid sector employees and for prospective employees and students.
