Lingo Wave

We broke our new series on learning Swedish down into different learning stages. Start with the “Lower Beginner” books followed by the “Beginner” and “Upper Beginner” books. Next, progress to the “Intermediate” series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the “Conversations” series.
This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Swedish. The sample will give you a taste of what you can look forward to.
In Unit 1 you will hear Swedish decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Swedish speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language.
By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Swedish. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Swedish at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Swedish, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.

Steve Laube

The blank page is not truly empty, it is filled with possibility,for even the margins are sacred.Part spiritual formation and part reflection on craft, Sacred Margins: On the Spiritual Life of a Writer  draws from Scripture, vast reading, and decades of experience in publishing to explore the interior life of the writer—the hidden places where words are formed long before they reach the page.Steve Laube journeys into profound facets of the writing life: the yearning to create, the alchemy of memory, the wonder of imagination, and the transparency of broken places. He also includes the difficulties writers face: self-doubt, waiting, criticism, time, success, and spiritual darkness, all while offering a deeply Christian vision of perseverance rooted in obedience. Through insights and spiritual exercises, the book emphasizes that words matter because God uses them to bring hope and truth.

From Where You Dream - The...

Robert Olen Butler

The Pulitzer Prize-winning author "shares his insights into—and passion for—the creation and experience of fiction with total openness" (Publishers Weekly, starred review). 
 
 
  
Robert Olen Butler, author of Perfume River, A Good Scent from a Strange Mountain, and A Small Hotel, teaches graduate fiction at Florida State University—his version of literary boot camp. In From Where You Dream, Butler reimagines the process of writing as emotional rather than intellectual and tells writers how to achieve the dream space necessary for composing honest, inspired fiction. Proposing that fiction is the exploration of the human condition with yearning as its compass, Butler reinterprets the traditional tools of the craft using the dynamics of desire. Offering a direct view into the mind and craft of a literary master, From Where You Dream is an invaluable tool for the novice and experienced writer alike. 
 
 
  
"Incisive and provocative, Butler's tutorials are a must for anyone even thinking about writing fiction, and readers, too, will benefit from his passionate exhortations." —Booklist
