  The Civic Brand: The Power & Responsibility of Place is a bold and practical book that challenges conventional thinking about city-building, tourism, economic development, and community engagement. Author Ryan Short introduces a new framework for shaping more resilient, equitable, and loveable places that is rooted in identity, values, and a triple bottom line. 
  Drawing from years of experience working with cities, counties, and regions across the country, Ryan Short shows how fragmented efforts, siloed departments, and surface-level branding have left communities struggling to grow with intention or preserve what makes them special. The Civic Brand reveals how place branding, when done right, isn’t just logos or slogans, but about uniting people, guiding policy, and building shared civic pride. Blending strategic insight with vivid, often entertaining stories from the field, this book brings to life the challenges and triumphs of real places navigating growth, decline, and identity. 
  Whether facing overtourism or decline, rapid growth or disinvestment, division or disengagement, this book offers a bold path forward. It’s a call to city leaders, planners, business owners, developers, and residents alike to recognize their role in shaping place and to do so with purpose. 
  The Civic Brand is more than a book, it’s a movement to reimagine how we care for the places we call home.

  Why Marianne Faithfull Matters

  First as a doe-eyed ingénue with “As Tears Go By,” then as a gravel-voiced phoenix rising from the ashes of the 1960s with a landmark punk album, Broken English, and finally as a genre-less icon, Marianne Faithfull carved her name into the history of rock ’n’ roll to chart a career spanning five decades and multiple detours. In Why Marianne Faithfull Matters, Tanya Pearson crafts a feminist account that explains the musician’s absence from the male-dominated history of the British Invasion and champions the eclectic late career that confirmed her redemption. 
   
  Putting memoir on equal footing with biographical history, Pearson writes about Faithfull as an avid fan, recovered addict, and queer musician at a crossroads. She’s also a professional historian unafraid to break from the expectations of the discipline if a “titty-centered analysis” or astrology can illuminate the work of her subject. Whether exploring Faithfull’s rise to celebrity, her drug addiction and fall from grace as spurned “muse,” or her reinvention as a sober, soulful chanteuse subverting all expectations for an aging woman in music, Pearson affirms the deep connections between listeners and creators and reveals, in her own particular way, why Marianne Faithfull matters.

  From War to Creativity: A Journey of Healing Through the Lens 
  By Wadih Moussa 
  From War to Creativity is a deeply personal exploration of creativity, healing, and transformation through the art of photography. This audiobook reflects on how photography can serve as a powerful tool for self-discovery and emotional growth. 
  Anchored in the author’s own experiences growing up in a war-torn country, the story extends beyond personal history to explore universal themes of hope, resilience, and the healing power of creative expression. Through vivid storytelling and heartfelt reflections, listeners are invited to consider how creativity can help them navigate life’s challenges. 
  Rather than offering technical photography lessons, this work highlights the profound impact photography can have on personal well-being. It also shares lessons learned about using social media mindfully—finding joy in the creative process, fostering genuine connection, and avoiding the distractions that can dim artistic fulfillment. 
  Whether you’re a photographer or simply seeking inspiration through art, From War to Creativity encourages you to embrace your creative journey with authenticity and confidence.

  “Crank up the color,” “Landscape your living room,” and “Adult summer camp vibes” are just a handful of the mantras that drive California interior designer Raili Clasen’s eclectic surf style. Raili grew up taking two long bus rides to the beach in Orange County, CA, so that she could drink up the cool surfer fashion, laid-back atmosphere, and retro surfboard decor and bring it all right home to her bedroom. Drawing from those early days of design experimentation and a career that took her from Raisins Swimwear to Quiksilver, Roxy, and Paul Frank—Raili is known for bottling up the spirit of surf culture and spraying it joyfully all over the homes she designs. Surf Style at Home takes readers into Raili’s colorful, surf-inspired, checkerboard-printed mind through homes she’s designed — from quirky old beach cottages and an Alabama lake house to sprawling new-construction homes in Newport Beach, Montana’s Yellowstone Club, and beyond.
