Do men and women write differently? Are bestsellers getting dumber over time? Which bestselling writer uses the most clichaes? What makes a great opening sentence? How can we judge a book by its cover? And which writerly advice is worth following or ignoring?"--Amazon.com.

Book excerpt: By attacking his own father, the emperor, the full extent of Glenn's betrayal is exposed--as is the monstrous truth behind his youthful form. In the name of bringing his own brand of "peace" to Szaalenden, Glenn has turned to Wischtechian magics to preserve his cause, conveniently ignoring the thousands of lives lost in the war against those same magics so many years ago. While Köinzell continues to struggle with the limitations of his new body, Glenn's has made him a threat more terrible than any the empire has seen!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The explosive proliferation of pictures in advertising and pop culture, mass media, and cyberspace following World War II, along with the profusion of critical thinking that tries to make sense of it, has had wide-ranging implications for cultural production as such. Pictures into Words explores how this proliferation of graphic images has profoundly affected narrative writing in France, especially, as Ari J. Blatt argues, the structure, content, and symbolic logic of contemporary French fiction. By examining a specific corpus of narratives by authors Claude Simon, Georges Perec, Pierre Michon, and Tanguy Viel—books that originate amid, conjure up, and indeed are essentially about pictures—Blatt addresses the most salient questions pertaining to the relationship between literature and visual culture today. Each of the novels considered here engages the work of several postwar artists, from Robert Rauschenberg, Andy Warhol, Vincent van Gogh, and Orson Welles to Jeff Koons, Joseph L. Mankiewicz, Pierre Huyghe, and Marcel Duchamp. As Blatt’s cross-disciplinary readings show, despite their gleeful raiding of the visual archive to generate and enrich their stories, many contemporary narratives that tell tales about pictures simultaneously express a cautious skepticism toward vision and visual representation. Pictures into Words examines how such novels, while seemingly complicit with the visual, simultaneously “write back” against the images they exploit, reclaiming some of literature’s lost ground in our visually inundated world.

Book excerpt: A groundbreaking exploration of our most complex and mysterious emotion Elation, mood swings, sleeplessness, and obsession—these are the tell-tale signs of someone in the throes of romantic passion. In this revealing new book, renowned anthropologist Helen Fisher explains why this experience—which cuts across time, geography, and gender—is a force as powerful as the need for food or sleep. Why We Love begins by presenting the results of a scientific study in which Fisher scanned the brains of people who had just fallen madly in love. She proves, at last, what researchers had only suspected: when you fall in love, primordial areas of the brain "light up" with increased blood flow, creating romantic passion. Fisher uses this new research to show exactly what you experience when you fall in love, why you choose one person rather than another, and how romantic love affects your sex drive and your feelings of attachment to a partner. She argues that all animals feel romantic attraction, that love at first sight comes out of nature, and that human romance evolved for crucial reasons of survival. Lastly, she offers concrete suggestions on how to control this ancient passion, and she optimistically explores the future of romantic love in our chaotic modern world. Provocative, enlightening, and persuasive, Why We Love offers radical new answers to the age-old question of what love is and thus provides invaluable new insights into keeping love alive.

Book excerpt: When by-the-book meets off-the-record, the story’s just starting . . . Special Agent Ty Grady is pretty sure he’s about to get fired. His last perp skipped town before he could make an arrest, leaving him with a lot of means and precious few ends. When he’s called into the boss’s office, he expects the worst. And he isn’t exactly wrong. Chained to a desk in cybercrimes, Special Agent Zane Garrett dots his i’s and crosses his t’s. He doesn’t have much of a choice in the matter—his record can’t handle another black mark. When he learns he’s getting reassigned, he doesn’t miss the ironic pronunciation on “promotion.” Wherever he’s going, it’s nowhere good. When they’re partnered to solve a series of murders, their chances of success look low. They’re fantastic agents, but the case seems more like a punishment than an assignment. They can’t stop driving each other crazy. . . and not just in a bad way. This killer already took out the previous agents assigned to the case, and it’s not long before he’s on Ty and Zane’s trail, as well. They’ll have to set their frustrations aside, before it’s too late. *This is a limited re-release of the original series, without changes. Some aspects of the story are now dated, and an updated version will be published at a later date.* **See this title's page on RiptidePublishing.com for content warnings.**

Book excerpt: Romancing The Blatt is a collection of real, heartwarming and humorous stories that any fan of Rosenblatt Stadium or the College World Series will enjoy. There's plenty of historical accounts, too.When Paul Fiarkoski returned to his South Omaha stomping grounds in 2007, he couldn't believe his eyes. "Save Rosenblatt" signs were displayed in the yards of homes in the neighborhood surrounding Rosenblatt Stadium as if it were an election year. He did a little research and came to grips with the likelihood that the home of NCAA College World Series since 1950 would be demolished and replaced with a new stadium in downtown Omaha.Accepting the reality that the stadium he fell in love with as a kid would soon be demolished, Fiarkoski convinced his wife to spend their family vacation at Rosenblatt Stadium for the 2009 College World Series. Then he used social media to raise awareness about the potential fate of the stadium and encourage as many people to get to "The Blatt" as possible while the stadium was still there. Despite never having taken a single journalism class, Fiarkoski was granted a press credential giving him unlimited access to Rosenblatt Stadium for the final College World Series at The Blatt. His love affair with the stadium culminated with an in-depth, behind-the-scenes adventure few have experienced.In Romancing The Blatt, you'll get a taste of what it was like living in the Rosenblatt Stadium neighborhood and how the stadium was literally woven into the fabric of South Omaha. It was so much more than a baseball stadium to the people of this community. Fiarkoski shares his personal experiences at concerts, baseball games and even the sledding hill on the north side of the stadium. In vivid detail, he takes you with him on a journey that resulted in a deep love for Omaha's field of dreams.
