Book excerpt: "Born In A Car Crash" serves as a guide to 1950s and 60s rhythm and blues 45s - artifacts of an incredibly fertile period of American musical history and culture. Never before in US history had so many musicians struck out on their own; moving to unknown cities to pursue careers, record and release music themselves, and in the process cultivating scenes across the nation that remain foundational in the development of American music as we know it. Many of these musicians - who often times couldn't walk in the front door of the segregated clubs they'd be booked to play in - weren't necessarily famous in their lifetime, but are often credited as major inspirations for many big names in music that most people would recognize: Elvis Presley, etc. etc. "Born In A Car Crash" aims to highlight essential tracks from an era of profound creativity and shine a light on the musicians, producers, and labels that leveraged everything they had to create music for the people. It is more important than ever to hear, share, and dance to these songs, ensuring that younger generations learn about the music, people, and stories that spawned what they're listening to today.

Book excerpt: In the aftermath of a traumatic event, a young man navigates small-town gossip, grief and recovery amidst a culture of toxic masculinity. “A heart-soaring act of literary bravery,” Car Crash is a hopeful, raw coming-of-age story for our times (Trent Dalton). “Bruisingly insightful.”—The Guardian • “Delivers from the first arresting page.”—Inside Story • “Moving, lyrical, warmly told and very funny.”—Brooke Davis, author of Lost & Found • “Shines with a fierce intelligence.”—Kristina Olsson, author of Shell Why did he get to live, and not them? This question has plagued Lech Blaine ever since he was a teenager, when he got into a car that never arrived at its destination. Of his crew of friends who were in the car, Blaine was the only passenger who made it out unscathed. In the aftermath of the accident that sent shockwaves through his small town, Blain was thrust into the local spotlight, fielding questions from journalists, police, and feeling pressure to perform his grief in public and on social media. In a community where men were expected to be strong and silent, Blaine felt that he had no one to turn to with his complicated emotions. In Car Crash, Blaine offers an intimate, brave account of what it’s like to survive a tragedy that others didn’t––and a moving portrait of a young person struggling to define his own masculinity. Blaine was raised to believe that being masculine meant projecting toughness, stoicism, and dominance, and this belief leads him to alcohol and disordered eating to cope with his pain. But as Blaine finally learns to open up with family, friends, and a therapist, he comes to realize the meaning of true strength, and the power of vulnerability to bring hope and healing. “Some books just have to be written. And some books just have to be read.”—Trent Dalton, author of Boy Swallows Universe

I just can't believe the love this world truly has when all we see is hate. This is so uplifting.” —Shelsea Where do you go when you want to feel inspired?

For over five million people, that place is Love What Matters, a digital platform dedicated to finding and sharing the daily moments of kindness, compassion, and love that so often go overlooked. This curated collection of powerful stories features first person accounts and photographs that perfectly capture each moment: A husband learning he’s about to be a dad. A new mom embracing her body. A cashier inadvertently teaching a young girl a lesson about patience. A bagel from a stranger that saved a homeless man’s life.

They are genuine. Authentic. Raw. And they are perfect in their imperfection—just like all of us. You will no doubt experience goosebumps and tears, but this mosaic of life’s moments will leave you with something even more profound: a reminder that, in the end, love always wins. “This really is the best page on Facebook. It renews your love of humanity. There are still good people. We need more reports of acts of kindness.” —Johnny

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MIND CONTROL is a book that explores the unspoken of ideas of life that individuals face every day. Part 1 introduces you to MIND CONTROL. This section tells you exactly who they are and their purpose for mankind. I also reveal myself and those who pursue and persecute Me. I then address the current status of life on earth and the many changes that have occurred since the dawning of the new millennium. I confront Biblical Prophecy and equate them with recent past times of the world. Part 2 begins the story of My Life highlighting My Differences from other earthlings. I am Geneva Le Neice Robinson. The Sun, moon, stars, and clouds move when I walk outside! I did not realize this unbelievable truth until My twenty-fifth birthday. The first chapter reveals My family and My spiritual foundation built during My early years of life. There is a colorful illustration of My childhood and circumstances I encountered as the unholy stood by observing the Woman clothed with the Sun growing up into adulthood. They caused Me much trauma. I question the standards of life on earth now, in contrast to a Biblical example of how we ought to live. I show how I was taught, My Intellect, and My Desire to achieve scholastically. I then faced family hardship such as abandonment and child molestation. I wrote about my Mothers life trials and how she severely affected Me. The unholy operated Me in My adolescence, as I lived. As a teen, I rededicated My Life to GOD. Then the unholy chased Me once again. REVELATION 12 tells the story of how Satan was defeated in Heaven and then cast to the earth, where he pursued Me, trying to kill Me. The Devil was cast alive into the Lake Of Fire. Now all his warriors, which survived and followed in his footsteps, strive to overcome Me day and night, but they are defeated by GODS LOVE. LOVE is the primary powerful ingredient needed to battle evil. I intensely explain the difference between LOVE and lust with Biblical proof. I excelled as a straight A student all the way through high school and ventured off to a trap set for Me at UCLA. My heart was set on attending Howard University in Washington D.C. My dreams were deferred and forbidden by My caregiver. UCLA devoured Me as The Dragons Empire ran people in My path and punished Me. I gave up My hopes and dreams of becoming a doctor and started a family. I then describe My view of life in the new millennium. I played a pivotal part in the change that overtook the world. After the change, I was alienated and unable to partake in the overtly sexual nature of mankind. The Queens of Existence alerted Me that I am their sole person on earth! I endure the shock and hardship of that reality as women engulf My LIGHT daily by stepping on Me-The Light and pretending to be Queen for fun. THE END IS NOW! I explain the Bibles REVELATION and how it relates to current life on earth. Many are ending, yet there are ways to survive. I give tactics on how to continue living without ending. The battle has always been between good and evil. Although the world lies in wickedness, we have a route to life and can pursue happiness!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A journalist recounts the surprising history of accidents and reveals how they’ve come to define all that’s wrong with America. We hear it all the time: “Sorry, it was just an accident.” And we’ve been deeply conditioned to just accept that explanation and move on. But as Jessie Singer argues convincingly: There are no such things as accidents. The vast majority of mishaps are not random but predictable and preventable. Singer uncovers just how the term “accident” itself protects those in power and leaves the most vulnerable in harm’s way, preventing investigations, pushing off debts, blaming the victims, diluting anger, and even sparking empathy for the perpetrators. As the rate of accidental death skyrockets in America, the poor and people of color end up bearing the brunt of the violence and blame, while the powerful use the excuse of the “accident” to avoid consequences for their actions. Born of the death of her best friend, and the killer who insisted it was an accident, this book is a moving investigation of the sort of tragedies that are all too common, and all too commonly ignored. In this revelatory book, Singer tracks accidental death in America from turn of the century factories and coal mines to today’s urban highways, rural hospitals, and Superfund sites. Drawing connections between traffic accidents, accidental opioid overdoses, and accidental oil spills, Singer proves that what we call accidents are hardly random. Rather, who lives and dies by an accident in America is defined by money and power. She also presents a variety of actions we can take as individuals and as a society to stem the tide of “accidents”—saving lives and holding the guilty to account.

Book excerpt: When singer Amy Winehouse was found dead at her London home in 2011, the press inducted her into what Kurt Cobain's mother named the 27 Club. “Now he's gone and joined that stupid club,” she said in 1994, after being told that her son, the front man of Nirvana, had committed suicide. “I told him not to….” Kurt's mom was referring to the extraordinary roll call of iconic stars who died at the same young age. The Big Six are Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison of the Doors, Kurt Cobain and, now, Amy Winehouse. All were talented. All were dissipated. All were 27. Journalists write about “the curse of the 27 Club” as if there is a supernatural reason for this series of deaths. Others invoke astrology, numerology, and conspiracy theories to explain what has become a modern mystery. In this haunting book, author Howard Sounes conducts the definitive forensic investigation into the lives and deaths of the six most iconic members of the Club, plus another forty-four music industry figures who died at 27, to discover what, apart from coincidence, this phenomenon signifies. In a grimly fascinating journey through the dark side of the music business over six decades, Sounes uncovers a common story of excess, madness, and self-destruction. The fantasies, half-truths, and mythologies that have become associated with Jones, Hendrix, Joplin, Morrison, Cobain, and Winehouse are debunked. Instead a clear and compelling narrative emerges, one based on hard facts, that unites these lost souls in both life and death.

Book excerpt: Tony Fitzjohn, part missionary, part madman, has been called “one of the world’s most endangered creatures.” An internationally renowned field expert on African wildlife, he is best known for the eighteen years he spent helping Born Free’s George Adamson return more than forty leopards and lions—including the celebrated Christian—to the wild in central Kenya. Born Wild is the memoir of Fitzjohn’s extraordinary life. It shows how a man driven by an impossibly restless spirit can do almost anything, from being a bouncer in a brothel, to surviving a vicious lion attack, to fighting with the Tanzanian government, to being appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire by the Queen. A notorious hell-raiser given to scrapes with bandits, evil policemen, and wicked politicians, who has been shot at by poachers and chewed up by lions, Fitzjohn is also a wonderful raconteur. Shenanigans aside, he belongs to that rare species of humans who have sought refuge and meaning in a life truly dedicated to the restoration of the animal kingdom. Many times Tony Fitzjohn has put his life on the line for the cause in which he believes. Born Wild is the story of that passion.
