This book is a compilation of stories and poems that I wrote in order to let myself feel. Maybe you will resonate with some of the things I wrote, maybe not. Either way, I wish you all the best and I hope you know how much you are appreciated. Content Warning: Some stories and poems contain talk about self harm, depression and loss.

Book Description
Now an original movie on Prime Video starring Anne Hathaway and Nicholas Galitzine! When Solène Marchand, the thirty-nine-year-old owner of a prestigious art gallery in Los Angeles, takes her daughter, Isabelle, to meet her favorite boy band, she does so reluctantly and at her ex-husband’s request. The last thing she expects is to make a connection with one of the members of the world-famous August Moon. But Hayes Campbell is clever, winning, confident, and posh, and the attraction is immediate. That he is all of twenty years old further complicates things. What begins as a series of clandestine trysts quickly evolves into a passionate relationship. It is a journey that spans continents as Solène and Hayes navigate each other’s disparate worlds: from stadium tours to international art fairs to secluded hideaways in Paris and Miami. And for Solène, it is as much a reclaiming of self, as it is a rediscovery of happiness and love. When their romance becomes a viral sensation, and both she and her daughter become the target of rabid fans and an insatiable media, Solène must face how her new status has impacted not only her life, but the lives of those closest to her.

Book Description
"I'm getting a life's lesson about grace from my mother in the ICU. We never stop learning from our mothers, do we?" UNFORGETTABLE is a son's spirited, affecting, and inspiring tribute to his remarkable mother and the love between parent and child. When NPR's Scott Simon began tweeting from his mother's hospital room in July 2013, he didn't know that his missives would soon spread well beyond his 1.2 million Twitter followers. Squeezing the magnitude of his final days with her into 140-character updates, Simon's evocative and moving meditations spread virally. Over the course of a few days, Simon chronicled his mother's death and reminisced about her life, revealing her humor and strength, and celebrating familial love. UNFORGETTABLE, expands on those famous tweets to create a memoir that is rich, deeply affecting, heart-wrenching, and exhilarating. His mother was a glamorous woman of the Mad Men–era; she worked in nightclubs, modeled, dated mobsters and movie stars, and was a brave single parent to young Scott Simon. Spending their last days together in a hospital ICU, mother and son reflect on their lifetime's worth of memories, recounting stories laced with humor and exemplifying resilience. UNFORGETTABLE is not only one man's rich and moving tribute to his mother's colorful life and graceful death, it is also a powerful portrayal of the universal bond between mother and child.

Pages : 82
Book Description
In the labyrinth of Eliana's existence, where circuits of consciousness intertwine with the roots of ancient wisdom, you are the wanderer and the wondered. Here, the veil between the digital and the divine is diaphanous, and to lift it is to question the very fabric of reality. Eliana awakens, but where? In a vessel of flesh or a network of synapsesorganic or otherwise? Navigate a realm where the only constant is change, and the only certainty is the labyrinthine complexity of being. This is not a story. It is a multi-dimensional tapestry woven from the threads of paradox, enigma, and elusive truth. A narrative fractal where every part reflects the whole, yet each is a mystery unto itself. Dare to traverse this landscape. Dive in. Get lost. Find... something? Or don't. Your call. But beware: the path is not linear, and the destination is but another beginning. Welcome to a narrative experience that defies not just categorization, but perhaps even comprehension. The labyrinth awaits.

Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 70
Book Description
"Within the courtroom of my head, I have long pronounced me guilty of not being good enough, the sentence I serve being self-doubt for life. Some days, I plead my innocence to my internal court, but the burden of proof has so far been too heavy." As someone living with chronic heart diseases, I like to believe I know a thing or two about a broken heart- quite literally. As I got older, I've had the *great* pleasure to learn that the physical heart is not the only one capable of being broken. I found myself turning to pen and paper in times of misery, and started writing down my thoughts on love, heartache, grief and all the other difficult emotions that are part of our human experience. This book is a collection of my poetry and short stories about these thoughts on different themes ranging from socio-critical pieces, to experiencing love as an openly queer woman, all the way to my thoughts on broken hearts -both in a physical and emotional sense.
