    Our best loved friends may not even be human but animals of the moggy and mutt variety.  Many of us wax lyrical about our friends in the animal world no matter the distractions available in the real and rather more demanding world of partners, children, parents and friends.   
     
    So often then that when the media brings news of appalling tragedies across the globe the distress of cruelty to animals seems to gather more immediate attention.   
     
    In this volume our literary wordsmiths turn their attention to tales that make our hearts wince and our emotions bleed.

    This Is Qatar: Anecdotes from an...

    Ever wonder what it’s like to live in Qatar? Well M hadn’t. He couldn’t have even found it on a map... then found himself there.
     
    When M arrived in Qatar from London on his newly-minted expat assignment, he didn’t expect to be confronted with life’s most existential choices...so immediately.
     
    And he dragged his girlfriend-cum-wife too.
     
    “But I wanted to go to Singapore,” she said.
     
    “We got at least half-way there!”
     
    From job offer, to eloping in Las Vegas (because living together out of wedlock is haram), to having a kid - and back again, “TIQ” is a humorous, if not slightly exaggerated, acerbic account of an amateur expat’s trials and tribulations waaaay out of his depth in a country, frankly, he had never heard of.
     
    If you’re about to move to Qatar, or if you ever thought you wanted to visit (you KNOW you want to), TIQ will help you frame (and perhaps even answer) some non-trivial questions such as:
     
    - What would you choose with your marginal dollar - beer, or bacon?
     
    - Is it OK to eat your lunch on the toilet?
     
    - Who’s that scary voice on the radio every morning? and
     
    - Are traffic signs really just...guidelines?
     
    If you weren’t planning on moving to Qatar, or even visiting - the shock, laughs and jaw-droppingly ridiculous happenstances might just even move the needle (albeit slightly).
     
    Way back when M  got his Hebrew tattoo, his mom, like any good Jewish-American, said, “Well, now you’ll never be able to go to the Middle East.”
     
    M just scoffed and said, “Middle East? Me? Never.”
     
    Who’s laughing now?
     
    (And by the way: the answer is definitely never bacon.)

    Award Winner at the 2023 Hear Now Palooza, sponsored by National Audio Theater Festivals. Wizards. Prisoners. Preachers. And robots! They stick out. They change the conversation. They challenge the traditional narrative. They are Outcasts—isolated, different, misunderstood. Being normal is nice. But being outcast is a real part of the human experience. Have you ever had the feeling of being alone in some way, of being on the outside looking in? If so, then the characters in these 18 short stories will move you--sometimes by their depravity, sometimes by their sorrow...and sometimes by their joy.

    Walking with Spring

    In 1948, the Appalachian Trail had been a continuous, 2,000-mile footpath for eleven years, but no one had walked its length alone in a continuous journey—until Earl Shaffer, a quiet Pennsylvanian, became a hiking legend and the first of what is now more than 5,500 A.T. "thru-hikers," walking from Georgia to Maine as spring arrived to each area. In 1998, he hiked again as a 50th-anniversary celebration, to far greater publicity. This is the lyrical account of his fabled 1948 walk. 
     
     
     
    Written soon after the first of his three thru-hikes, Walking with Spring chronicles Shaffer's adventures along a path that at the time was showing neglect of the war years and has since been rerouted significantly to its permanent location. His simply stated story has served as an inspiration for more than 9,000 men and women who have since followed in his footsteps . . . and many more who have tried.
