  The Power of Acting

  ACTING is a vast and relatively unknown subject... for many. And yet millions are fascinated by it. Why? The answer is because this all-encompassing human art form is as fundamental to the self-actualisation of a human being as reading, writing and maths. We sense this. We know it. Surely the possession of such knowledge would be of great advantage in any profession, in any walk of life, and not just the preserve of stage and film? Why are we not taught these playful and transformative skills in school? This book uncovers why, and reveals top acting secrets, techniques and games that will dramatically change the way you see yourself and the world around you. 'This is a wonderfully helpful book regarding the importance of adults learning to play again, in order to free themselves from the oppressive everyday tramlines we follow... Josephine is a great inspiration to many people and this book will show you why.' Peter Richardson - founder of the COMIC STRIP troupe
  'Sculptress of the creative spirit, enkindling in even our most timid selves a passion for play, interconnectedness, listening, ritual and generosity on all of life's stages,Josephine is an indelible force of love and wisdom, at once ready for a fit of laughter or all hell to break loose. For her teachings and humanity, my immeasurable gratitude! Watch out for that fourth wall; you might fall through it reading this book.' Seumas F. Sargent, Performer, Blue Man Group, Berlin 'You're a rock, an inspiration, a star-I wish to the heavens I'd had teachers like you when I was at school! My God, I could have done anything.' Richard Down - a player 'My life changed beyond all recognition during the last four years coming to your classes with many, many challenges. The safe loving environment you created has been a great source of strength-even when I have been unable to attend! It has been a very important part of my liberation.' Louise Gough - a player

  The Art of Looking Back - A...

  Theresa Kishkan

  A former artist’s model and muse reclaims her image and voice, dismantling the male gaze that once framed her. 
  At 23, Theresa Kishkan met an artist who became obsessed with her. She was young, she was flattered, and the situation quickly overwhelmed her. He drew and painted her for a few months, after which she went away for a year. When she returned, she was determined not to resume the relationship.  
  But the artist made contact with her after the birth of her first child and became a family friend, bringing gifts of paintings. Those images hung in Theresa’s home, and one in particular reminded her almost daily of her younger self, in ways both positive and not so much. She avoided looking too closely at his images of her and at his long, passionate and often troubling letters. 
  Decades later, while sorting old correspondence, she was taken back to those early days and began, at last, to write about her relationship with the now-deceased artist. The Art of Looking Back is a meditation on the male gaze, on reclaiming one's younger self, and on agency: how we lose it, how we find it again. This poetic memoir asks questions about older men and younger women and girls, and the persistence of that dynamic in art.

  In The Western Night

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. In the Western Night is Nolan Insyte’s second novel over a 20 year span. This fictional novel follows in the vein of classic adventure, travel and journey stories, where the trip is both metaphorical and real. 
  The novel’s main character travels west in search of something that will move him in any way; emotionally, spiritually, or metaphysically. Through times of hardship and drama, where almost everything around him should have threatened him in some way, he pushes on to always try to make the best of times. In this sense it is a journey of hope and he perseveres through endless disasters. 
   
  WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING: “Insyte’s writing is sparse, intimate, and steeped in bruised lyricism. He understands the poetry of drifting: how loneliness can feel expansive, how the search for human connection can be both humbling and transcendent. The narrator’s mind, “as wide open as the sky itself,” becomes the true landscape of the novel — a place where longing, clarity, and uncertainty coexist. Ultimately, In the Western Night is a meditation on movement — physical, emotional, and spiritual. It captures the weight of longing, the quiet beauty of uncertainty, and the fragile hope that keeps us walking toward the next town, the next morning, the next version of ourselves. It is a powerful, resonant novel that lingers long after the final page.” – Dianne Reeves Angel, author of Every Restaurant Tells A Story
