Book excerpt: Maurice Yacowar challenges genre and form in Roy & Me, a cross between memoir and fiction, truth and distortion. It is the exploration of Yacowar's relationship with Roy Farran - soldier, politician, author, mentor - and his conflict with Farran's anti-Semitic past. Best known for his service with the Special Air Service during World War II, Roy Farran served as a politician in the Legislative Assembly of Alberta for Premier Peter Lougheed. During his time as a soldier, Farran allegedly kidnapped and murdered a sixteen-year-old member of the Lehi group. Roy & Me is a memoir that edges toward fiction by venturing into Farran's thoughts, based on his writings and Yacowar's imagination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our best-laid plans will yield to fate. And we will say, “We lived. We ate.” Roy Blount Jr. is one of America’s most cherished comic writers. He’s been compared to Mark Twain and James Thurber, and his books have been called everything from “a work of art” (Robert W. Creamer, The New York Times Book Review) to “a book to read till it falls apart” (Newsweek). Now, in Save Room for Pie, he applies his much-praised wit and charm to a rich and fundamental topic: food. As a lifelong eater, Blount always got along easy with food—he didn’t have to think, he just ate. But food doesn’t exist in a vacuum; there’s the global climate and the global economy to consider, not to mention Blount’s chronic sinusitis, which constricts his sense of smell, and consequently his taste buds. So while he’s always frowned on eating with an ulterior motive, times have changed. Save Room for Pie grapples with these and other food-related questions in Blount’s signature style. Here you’ll find lively meditations on everything from bacon froth to grapefruit, Kobe beef to biscuits. You’ll also find defenses of gizzards, mullet, okra, cane syrup, watermelon, and boiled peanuts; an imagined dialogue between Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden; input from Louis Armstrong, Frederick Douglass, and Blaze Starr; and of course some shampooed possums and carjacking turkeys. In poems and songs, limericks and fake (or sometimes true) news stories, Blount talks about food in surprising and innovative ways, with all the wit and verve that prompted Garrison Keillor, in The Paris Review, to say: “Blount is the best. He can be literate, uncouth, and soulful all in one sentence.”

Book excerpt: A tie-in to the new documentary, Roy's World, directed by Rob Christopher narrated by Lili Taylor, Matt Dillon and Willem Dafoe, these stories comprise one of Barry Gifford's most enduring works, his homage to the gritty Chicago landscape of his youth Barry Gifford has been writing the story of America in acclaimed novel after acclaimed novel for the last half-century. At the same time, he's been writing short stories, his "Roy stories," that show America from a different vantage point, a certain mix of innocence and worldliness. Reminiscent of Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn and Ernest Hemingway's Nick Adams stories, Gifford's Roy stories amount to the coming-of-age novel he never wrote, and are one of his most important literary achievements--time-pieces that preserve the lost worlds of 1950s Chicago and the American South, the landscape of postwar America seen through the lens of a boy's steady gaze. The twists and tragedies of the adult world seem to float by like curious flotsam, like the show girls from the burlesque house next door to Roy's father's pharmacy who stop by when they need a little help, or Roy's mom and the husbands she weds and then sheds after Roy's Jewish mobster father's early death. Life throws Roy more than the usual curves, but his intelligence and curiosity shape them into something unforeseen, while Roy's complete lack of self-pity allow the stories to seem to tell themselves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author Big Bro. Earl Roberts like many others has been on a spiritual quest for understanding for many years. His new book (first novel) of spiritual fiction had been in the process of becoming for many years. Lee Roys Heaven is an attempt to convey to the masses the possibility of and necessity of people having more love and compassion in their lives. Perhaps, looking at some traditional religious doctrines in a whole new way and concluding that what we dont know about Gods truth is just as important as that which we believe we do know. This story of the adventures of a young (deceased) dope-seller tripping through his after death existence forces the readers to contemplate their lives, true love, forgiveness, patience and tolerance for other human beings that we judge as evil, sick with sinful natures, or strangely different then ourselves.

Book excerpt: Excerpts from the Story It was the morning of their fourth day at sea, and Nathan, awakened suddenly, sat up; something was different. He threw on a few clothes, and ran out on deck. It didnt take long to figure out what was different. The Catherine Ross was running with full sail aloft, filled by a strong gale, and Captain Stuart was making good use of the wind while it lasted. Thus far, the passengers had been spared the usual scourge of new seafarers; seasickness. However, on the fifth day, it caught up with Reverend Wolde. The cook took charge, fed him special food, and said it would run its course in a day or so. However, Nathan was not reassured, and felt certain he would be buried at sea. Two days later, hed made it out on deck with his wife and was enjoying the fresh air, when a call came from the Crows Nest, Ship Ahoy. Well now, this was something new, and they quickly scanned the horizon. But there was nothing there to see. A crew member, who saw them looking, walked over and said nothing would be visible from deck level until late the next day. That evening, Ian said it might be the MacTavish clipper, Anne Ross, bound for Newfoundland, but they would have to wait until the two ships got closer to be sure. Nathan and Mary Catherine were sitting underneath their hammocks discussing the events of the day. Nathan, dont you think its a bit odd for two ships to meet in the middle of the ocean like this? I doubt the Captains just want to say howdy to each other; I believe theres more to it. Well, my dear, Nathan replied, I know you pretty well. Youre not thinking its some sort of conspiracy, so it must be one of your premonitions. All right, Mary Catherine, lets hear it. Its the weather, Nathan. The other Captain is going to warn us were sailing into a storm. The carriages stopped on top of a hill overlooking the Firth of Tay, and the family got out to look. Directly opposite them, atop a high bluff, was The Barony. Mary Catherine gasped. Oh my God, Nathan, surely that cant be where were going, can it. I believe thats got to be your fathers place, my dear. Youre almost home now. She grabbed the front of his coat with both hands and shook him. Reverend Wolde, that is not my home! My home is across that ocean in the mountains of Virginia, where I live happily with my family. Look at me, Nathan; help me. I cant do this alone. She believed him to be sleeping in his chair, but the Baron, heard the door close and stood on trembling leg. Father, was all she got out before the tears came, and she was folded into his arms. My beautiful daughter, how lovely you are. If only your mother could see you now, he sobbed.

This includes problems in phrases and clauses, common errors, special cases, rules, and paragraph style. Lessons include a large amount of student work and a speaking element. The units may also be studied as single focus units, which teachers may use as needed and in any sequence. Dr. Paul R. Friesen has worked in the ESL education field for fifteen years, developing materials for a wide range of students. Currently this book is in some private schools in South Korea. The process of “writing what they’re thinking” helps students retain their learning longer. The style is easy to work through quickly, helping students feel a sense of accomplishment. Using the 7 Step to Story making plan, students can put larger blocks of learning into stories, thereby creating a more creative lesson for the teacher, and one that is more challenging for the student.
