  The story behind Notebook starts with a minor crime: the theft of Tom Cox's rucksack from a Bristol pub in 2018. In that rucksack was a journal containing ten months' worth of notes, one of the many Tom has used to record his thoughts and observations over the past twelve years. It wasn't the best he had ever kept – his handwriting was messier than in his previous notebook, his entries more sporadic – but he still grieved for every one of the hundred or so lost pages. This incident made Tom appreciate how much notebook-keeping means to him: the act of putting pen to paper has always led him to write with an unvarnished, spur-of-the-moment honesty that he wouldn't achieve on-screen.
  Here, Tom has assembled his favourite stories, fragments, moments and ideas from those notebooks, ranging from memories of his childhood to the revelation that 'There are two types of people in the world. People who fucking love maps, and people who don't.' The result is a book redolent of the real stuff of life, shot through with Cox's trademark warmth and wit.

  Christmas is over. And so is my marriage… 
  Twenty years of marriage. Twenty years of ignored red flags. And one very smug ex-girlfriend. 
  He seemed perfect at first. Don’t they always? I fell fast, and I fell hard. So when I discovered his secret double life, suddenly all those years of feeling paranoid made sense. 
  I had two options (well three, if you count me and my best friend with two spades and a suspicious willingness to serve hard time): 
  1. Stay for the kids 
  2. Sacrifice my sanity to divorce the b*stard 
  The Secret Divorcée is my unfiltered story of falling for a red flag, betrayal, bad decisions, and how to turn heartbreak into hilarity – fuelled by wine and a side hustle my mother must never, ever find out about.

  God Don't Like Aholes - Or...

  This is an educational entertainment humor filled with real life experiences. It is unconventional in nature. Topics such as dealing with Assholes in all walks of life, and what not to do with cantankerous people. Yet it deals with God, What Men and Women Really Want, Blog Movie Reviews, PTSD, Alcoholism, Why Losing in Short Run is Better in the Long Run, Teaching; How to Teach to Students Who Are Jacked, and Achieving Any Goal, if You Believe in God and Yourself.This is a book based on experiences, research, Moreover the quote God Don’t Like A-holes is from my late father. My late sister knitted the quote and framed it for him years ago. To be sure I did not understand why he used this expression. Ironically, this came to life around his 54th birthday, which is my age at the moment. The older I grow, the more this idiom makes sense. The point is, those who mistreat you does not mean you should do the like. Anger manifested becomes a consuming fire, and does more damage to yourself. You may be familiar with the expression, ‘Do not burn your bridges.’This work is more aimed at ironing out my failures so you do not try them. Such as trying out for Pro Soccer at the age of 47 without any experience, applying and interviewing to be a CEO of Elderly Care Service in England with no experience, working as a bouncer while teaching full time, returning to the military at the age of 40, allowing a step sister to borrow your car, borrowing other people’s property like wives, or thinking God wouldn’t see me steal soldiers or match box cars at the age of 9. Moreover, not shutting up when confronted by supervisors about suggestions, or being corrected, or telling your fellow Marines in Norway they have a free day coming up before the command puts the word out.Furthermore, historical anecdotes, and topics such as the useless Veterans Preference points for jobs, teaching, bartending, and the topic of Branding, musicmaking, writing, fitness, prayer, and God will all be covered.

  A Ward of the Golden Gate

  A Ward of the Golden Gate is a compelling novella by Bret Harte that blends romance, social critique, and frontier drama. Set in California during the Gold Rush era, the story follows Constance Maynard, a young woman raised in the refined East but sent West to live under the guardianship of the rough-mannered Captain Jackson after her father’s death. As she navigates the stark contrast between cultured ideals and rugged frontier life, Constance faces moral dilemmas, romantic entanglements, and the challenge of forging her own identity. Harte contrasts genteel femininity with masculine stoicism, exploring themes of civilization versus wilderness, gender roles, and personal growth. With his signature blend of sentiment, irony, and vivid regional detail, Harte crafts a poignant coming-of-age tale set against the backdrop of a transforming American West.
