A 14-year-old girl suddenly finds herself hundreds of miles from home, living on the outskirts of the Potawatomi Indian reservation in Michigan's remote Upper Peninsula. In the ensuing seven years she will survive her mother's boyfriend's contempt, sexual advances by his son, and become pregnant at age 16 by a mentally ill and abusive man 20 years her senior. "Angel in the Upper Peninsula - A Memoir" is a powerful and moving story of loss, hope, and survival.
It is an island frozen in time and space. For more than 3,000 years, the island of Avalon remained hidden from the outside world; a place of eternal magic, where the descendants of King Arthur ruled over a land filled with magical creatures, Elves, Dwarves and dragons. The island was only accessible through a rift in the Bermuda Triangle, where mariners and aviators disappeared throughout history. No one believed Avalon was anything but a myth.
In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, in the heart of a naval exercise, Avalon suddenly reappeared, causing disruptions on both fronts. The US Navy, now circling the mysterious island, wants answers. On Avalon, they fear Outlanders would intrude on their home; and caught in the middle of it all is Lord Bryan MoonDrake, the Gil-Gamesh of Avalon, Knight Eternal and champion of the magical realm.
The Gil-Gamesh was once a US Navy sailor, lost at sea in a freak storm, who found his way to Avalon. After his family followed him to the island, they decided to stay and make this their home. Now they are torn between loyalty to their new home and compassion for their old one.

Humorous guide on failure reveals true nature of how to succeed
Everyone in the world has failed at something at some point in their lives. For many, failure is a daily occurrence. To help them and everyone who fears failure, a new self-help guide has been published that is aimed at getting people to open up and talk about the topic.
The new tongue-in-cheek guide is called ‘How to Fail Fantastically’ by serial failure-ist, Ken Williams, who says we shouldn’t fear failure, but embrace it.
Through the companion guide, Williams shows that with a sense of humour and sense of purpose, anyone can fail fantastically. In fact, he demonstrates that failure is not this big, bad monster, but a major precursor to success.

This anthology of critical economists is dedicated to all seekers of truth and justice, to all yearning for an inclusive future of generalized security, reduced working hours, exchanging roles, community centers and free Internet books.
By rethinking work, happiness, health and security, we can pave the way for a future that is open and dynamic, not closed and static. Life should be full of play, exuberance, surprise and mystery. The economy ought to be a part of life, not a steamroller crushing self-determination and creativity. Alternatives to stagnation, unemployment and depression lead to changed priorities and policies, a political-economic revolution of qualitative growth and joy in living.
Alternative economics is a vital corrective to market with unfettered deregulation, privatization and liberalization of markets. While neoliberal mythology insists higher profits bring more jobs and greater investments, profits soar and investments fall by the wayside. Radicalism and neoliberalism, mainstream market-radical economic theory haves led to exploding inequality, cynicism and resignation and has no answers to mass unemployment, growing precarity, global warming and the rights of nature. The time is right for alternative economics, for economics that is part of life, not a steamroller crushing creativity and self-determination.
The market is not self-healing or a panacea but a necessary and helpful instrument after political questions are answered: what kind of society do we want? How can public necessities remain public? How can people be active participative citizens and not mere cogs in the machine? How can nature be protected and nurtured and not trivialized as a free good, external or sink?
