It's 1960. The Russians have nuclear missiles off the coast of Florida. The Sexual Revolution is about to send the world spinning. Intellectuals are predicting the death of God. All that aside, fifteen-year-old Dewey "Doc" Ruggles has real challenges to deal with. He needs to find a babysitter for his little sister, Snowball, so he'll have time to solve his hometown's most chilling cold-case murder. It's his chance to be a local hero and attract evil's opposite: true love. A chance sighting from atop a Catholic church is the break he needs. Knowing what he knows now, there's no turning back. If he wants to become a bonafide detective, he'll need to outwit Junior Mentz, the town's psychotic bully, stop Cuban communists out to assassinate a future US president, and solve the riddle of a mysterious nun who's out to pull off a con of Biblical proportion. Then again, maybe he's imagining the whole thing. Sister Theresa doesn't think so. The problem is she may not be the best expert on reality. According to a local legend, she may already be dead.

In developing countries, education is not a given right but a privilege for those who can afford it. In these cases, families sell what little they have to keep their children in school and often can't continue their education. In addition, children have many chores in the early morning hours, walk far distances to school, are usually hungry, and worry about drought. Children try to study and read by candlelight at night because electricity is too expensive. Yet astonishingly, they often give the biggest smiles with warm hearts. Through native songs and dance, children find solace in a challenging childhood, usually fraught with unimaginable loss. Please support the Kids Share Workshops mission by purchasing our Kids Share Zambia book and other collections. We have a moving Kids Share Zambia short and documentary film, giving a powerful voice to youth and their communities. We hope to create a documentary Kids Share Workshops series alongside our published books. Children who worry about continued education hope you will pay attention and hear their voices through Kids Share Workshops, by helping to make our world smaller through the power of publishing.

"You smell like Hell, get away from me!" Those are not exactly the words one would expect to hear upon entering through the doors of a church, the place many refer to as the House of God. Unfortunately, that is the message that is being screamed loud and clear by many that call themselves Christians. The message that is being sent, either intentionally or unintentionally is "my opinion of you is you are on your way to hell, in fact you are already so close to getting there you actually are beginning to smell like hell!" So, what if, we cared enough about those around us, that instead of bashing or ignoring them we did the unthinkable by reaching out and offering them a hand up? Instead of being satisfied with our own fire insurance policy maybe we could use it as motivation. The type of motivation to do all we can to inform others of what we have found in Christ. Becoming so desperate for the souls of those we love and even those we don't love would make us stay awake at night. The type of sleepless night where each time you close your eyes you see all the faces of the people in Hell. Their anguished faces contorting as they plead over and over with you asking WHY? Why did you not let us know there was another way? You realize you failed to ever share with them THE way, Jesus Christ. You can't stop hearing their screams or seeing their torture. In fact, what if we were so consumed and desperate for the eternal destinations of our fellow humans that we got so close to the fires of Hell, pulling them from the flames, that we smelled like smoke? What a compliment it would then be for someone to say, "you smell like Hell!" This is not a church bashing book, instead it is intended as a wake up call for all people.

This edition has generous sized font and quality paper that will last. Frankenstein is Mary Shelley's classic horror story. To quote from this terrifying and famous tale: "One man's life or death were but a small price to pay for the acquirement of the knowledge which I sought, for the dominion I should acquire and transmit over the elemental foes of our race. (Letter 4.21)" "But it is true that I am a wretch. I have murdered the lovely and the helpless; I have strangled the innocent as they slept and grasped to death his throat who never injured me or any other living thing." What does Mary Shelley's story tell us about the risks and promises of new technology today, especially AI, machine learning and machine communication? This original classic raised questions which are still relevant, and in an engaging ground-breaking novel.

The Grand Duchy of Miraval is a small, picturesque country of great snow-capped mountains, rich alluvial valleys and plains, and grandiose sections of woods and waterlands strategically located between the world's two great powers. The past two decades have seen Miraval forced to go to war twice with the Dominion, their belligerent, saber-rattling neighbor to the north. Miraval ceded territory to the Dominion in each of those wars to earn an uneasy peace, but most Miravallians knew that the Dommies were just biding their time. The Dominion would come for the entire country sooner or later and every citizen would be called upon to fight.Raslan Dagenham, better known as Dag, was a simple hunter and an incredible shot who cared nothing for what went on in the world beyond his town of Harren Falls in the rocky, forested hills of the Crest. Since his father died fighting the Dominion in the Great Strife, his only interest had been seeing to the survival of his siblings and mother. The return of his brother Aleksian from university, bearing news that the rumors of an impending Dominion invasion are likely true, coincides with news that several northern cities have fallen to a Dominion advance of tanks and airships.Under cover of darkness, an advanced Dominion force launches a surprise assault on the Dagenham's home town, bringing a distant war into the brothers' back yard. Spurred on by Aleksian's patriotism and his own desire to protect his home, Dag picks up his rifle in defense of Miraval and goes to war. Allied with his brother Aleksian, a few National Guardsmen, a couple of constables, and a ragtag group of volunteers, Dag will make a stand to save his hometown and possibly his country.

Stars; A Collection of Poetry was just released. It features poetry written by NAMI New York State members Alexis Hill, Marissa Panè, Dianna Paige, Emily Frankl, Diana Viglucci, and Lindsay Wheeler. Stars also features Danielle Fiorello Jobes and Kamilah Simone of This Is My Brave, and Jose Rosario of PeaceLove.Author, and curator Joseph Fusaro, who speaks with NAMI and This Is My Brave, said of the project,"Over the last three years I've met so many amazingly talented writers, and my honest opinion is that the only difference between their poetry and the poetry written by someone who is making a living in the industry, is that that person who is making a living got published. They had somebody that believed in them and invested in their talents.I put together Stars because I believe in these writers. I believe in them as people, and I know that no matter what they write, it will always be good because their work is authentic and from the heart.I am at a point in my career where I feel like I've said everything that I need to say for now. My new mission is to help writers realize their own talents and to get their words on paper for everyone to read. If I believe in anything it is that being free to tell our story can really help to heal a part of ourselves that often goes over-looked in modern medicine. Our stories can also help other's find the right words. Groups like NAMI, This Is My Brave, and PeaceLove inspired me to write my books. Now it's my turn to pass this on."
