    Belonging: A Journey of Healing, Forgiving, and Manifesting Everything I Ever Desired is a soul-stirring memoir that dares to ask—what if everything you've ever needed was already within you? 
    From surviving childhood trauma and navigating abandonment to becoming a national youth leader, spiritual visionary, and respected scholar, Dr. Shawn Boone chronicles a path marked by pain, purpose, and profound awakening. Through deeply personal storytelling, he reveals how his search for belonging was never about fitting into the world—it was about remembering his place within it. 
    This is not just a story of survival. It is a sacred declaration of reclamation. In these pages, you will witness how silence becomes sound, how trauma transforms into truth, and how forgiveness becomes the ultimate portal to freedom. At the heart of this journey is the discovery of The Theory of Embodied Vision™, Parallel Actualization™, and the S.E.E.D. Framework™—a powerful process rooted in Stillness, Embodiment, Expression, and Discernment. These guiding principles help readers align with their highest self, break free from inherited patterns, and manifest a life of meaning and purpose. 
    Written with poetic vulnerability and spiritual clarity, Belonging is for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider in their own life. Whether you are healing from loss, grappling with identity, or yearning to manifest something more, this book offers a mirror for your truth—and a map back home to yourself. 
    If you've ever whispered "there must be more," this book will show you: there is. And you are it.

    One of the most successful nightclub and theater comedians in America started out a long way from the stage, in the tiny farming community of Lithonia, Georgia. James Gregory was born into a family with lots of love but little money. His parents paid the doctor for his delivery with "a bushel of beans and a peck of tomatoes." 
     
     
     
    Before he became "The Funniest Man in America," James was a successful salesman of everything from encyclopedias to log homes. His philosophy: take care of yourself so nobody has to take care of you. When he started over as a comedian, this commitment to hard work and honest dealing would be the key to his "business" of comedy. James loves working people—because that's what he is, too. 
     
     
     
    James was quickly discovered—not just in the South, but across America—by folks who love down-home, wholesome humor. He became the court jester of country music royalty, too, from Randy Travis to "Whispering" Bill Anderson to the Possum himself, George Jones. Whether it's entertaining our troops in the Persian Gulf after 9/11, working the road with greats like Steven Wright and Jay Leno, or facing a heart-stopping emergency that sent him into a coma, James has squeezed a dozen lifetimes into a half-century of comedy. This book is the best James Gregory story yet—as only he can tell it.

    The influence of the comic book has never been greater, from movies to streaming and beyond, but the journey comics took from little-regarded kids' magazines to literary prize-winning books and global franchises turned on a highly unusual group of writers and artists. Few would have expected a small gathering of British comic book fans and creators in the early 'seventies to be a global cultural pivot-point, but this was the start of a disparate movement of punks, dropouts, and disaffected youths who reinvented a medium and became the imaginative heart of a global success story. 
     
     
     
    Based on years of interviews with a generation of leading writers, artists, and editors, Karl Stock reveals the true story of the wild times, passion, and determination that helped, hindered, and saw the reinvention of comics. 
     
     
     
    Stock brilliantly tells the story of the triumphs and disasters that rewrote the rulebook on what comics could be and who they should be for.

    A compelling, relatable and powerfully moving memoir of people-pleasing, family and what it means to love and be loved, from radio presenter and podcaster Linda Marigliano. 
     
    Linda Marigliano has built a career out of performing for other people. In her day-job as an on-air presenter or in her family home, she contorted herself into 'the cool girl' or 'the good girl', and struggled to ever truly switch off.  
     
    As she repeatedly over-committed and sought approval in all its guises, she started to ask herself: Why am I like this? Combing through her complex relationship with her mother, the sense of duty within her extended Italian and Chinese-Malaysian families, and the twisting turns of both her career path and her love life, she noticed a pattern emerging.  
     
    Her love language had warped into acts of service that pleased everyone but herself, without boundaries or exceptions. And she'd lost the ability to translate the vocabulary of love being spoken all around her.  
     
    Love Language is Linda's determined reclamation of her identity; a fiercely relatable and viscerally honest account of what it means to love and be loved.
