Book excerpt: "As The Words Flow..." is a collection of poems that speak to the human experience by sharing my own. In a time where I thought no one was listening or would ever understand me, I began to write. I wrote to ease my mind, soothe my broken heart, and to show sides of me most don't get to see, with hopes of inspiring the next person. As a result, this book was created. These are my words. And they have a way of lingering...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes a reading experience »powerful«? This volume brings together literary scholars, linguists, and empirical researchers who tackle the question by investigating the effects and reader responses generated by selected extracts of literary prose. The twelve contributions theorize this widely-used, but to date insufficiently studied notion, and provide insights into the therefore still mysterious-seeming power of literary fiction. The collection explores a variety of stylistic as well as readerly and psychological features responsible for short- and long-term effects - topics of great interest to those interested or specialized in literary studies and narratology, (cognitive) stylistics, empirical literary studies and reader response theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I Give You My Words..." is the follow up to my debut book "As the Words Flow... a Collection of Prose and Spoken-word Poetry". I wanted to go back in a sense, and re-tell some pivotal stories that led to me finding my way through memoirs, short stories, and poems. I also wanted my writing to exude transparency, honesty, and duality. Sometimes we forget the stories that make us us. More often than we'd like to admit, we lose focus on being ourselves that we never embrace our 'one-of-kindness'. This time around I wanted to start some uncomfortable, but much needed conversations. All while lending my words to the sometimes indescribable, yet universal, moments in life. And in doing so, after all the healing and reflection was done, I have evolved and so have my words... These are my words, and they still linger...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Becoming a designer takes a huge amount of time and education. With so many skills to learn, many people never get the chance to master the one skill that can give them a real advantage in business or academia: They never learn to write well.” In Writing for the Design Mind author, designer and educator Natalia Ilyin offers clear, concise, and humorous writing tips, techniques and strategies to people who have spent their lives mastering design rather than learning to write. Ilyin's book helps designers approach writing in the same ways they approach designing – teaching skills and methods through encouragement, practical exercises and visual advice. Writing well is a skill, like any other, and with this book you can learn to do it with confidence. //Winner in the 50 Books | 50 Covers award 2019 from the AIGA//

Book excerpt: There are times when you just want to talk aloud or just blurt out whatever comes to mind. Well you can. Sha Rene' speaks her mind and uses her words to get across a message. Most people can't just sit there and listen to your opinions or your outlook on life or how you feel about your day or how things went in your past relationships with men or say the things back to the people who hurt you or laugh at all the funny stuff people did. This book does exactly that. Like, "Ntozake Shange's poetry for stage, "For Colored Girls", Sha writes these intense words from her African American experience, made for you to listen as a dramatic piece of Chuma Okoli on the canvas. It's like being a fly on the wall. In music there is the opportunity to ignore the words to a sing and listen along to a beat of the drum or the string of the violin or the tap of the piano, but with spoken words, u can git deep! Lot's of slang in this book. She raps like that! This book is "the spoken word" a form of poetry to song, a form of song in poetry and sad, amazingly honest and also funny. There are parts of this book that allow you to go with the writer through a given situation and in a colorful way let you bend the rules with her, let you laugh with her and cry with her and sometimes scream with her. Rap with her! Words with a beat and beating up the words and then there is silence. This book although written is made for performance, made for the stage and an open mic. Made for one who wants to listen to what is right and sometimes wrong. "Words Can Explain" How you feel when you get up in the morning, How you feel when you are in mourning, how you feel when your work is done, How it feels to be Black and a woman and single and alone and strong and a child and also grown, How feel when you are the only one holding it down! So listen up my brothas and sistas. Listen up!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Music is the brute that shows. It is the avowal of materials, And stutters between its clanging of things.” How should one think this musical groove of the poem whose back and forth motion shuffles the material of ordinary language and revives the frozen speech of old chants? This question by renowned French thinker Jacques Rancière is the entry point for his earnest and careful reading of one of France’s most singular and important contemporary poets. For Rancière, Philippe Beck sets himself the task of a poetry after poetry whereby Beck re-writes and transforms the poems of the past, reanimating faded genres, poetizing the prose of popular tales and even commentaries regarding poems. To read and follow this groove traced as such cannot simply be done by way of taking the poems as objects of study. It supposes a dialogue regarding what these poems attempt to do as well as an idea of a poetry which serves as their foundation. This book on Philippe Beck is thus also a book made with him.
