  Art, a 29 year old scuba rep from Indiana, is floating through life, rudderless and apathetic. One day, when he leaves work in order to avoid an office birthday party, he stumbles across a sign for Mystery Mike’s Bookstore. What was first mere curiosity grows into an obsession when threatening notes and mind warping illusions prevent Art from finding the damn place. 
    
   Art impulsively disregards his responsibilities at work and home to get to the bottom of the mystical bookstore. He soon teams up with Lenny, a Middle-aged Granite State Schlub and his celebrity dog, Schubert, who were former clients of the store before being shut off from access right when they needed it most.  
    
  Schubert is dying and Lenny is desperate to keep him alive. Lenny is also wracked with guilt that Schubert's illness might be a side effect of the training knowledge obtained from Mystery Mike's. During their search, the team encounters some peculiar people, including a brash cult leader, a ventriloquist couple with a supernatural secret, and angelic super race of humans with ulterior motives. Some will become friends, some will become enemies, but everyone seems to be in it for themselves. What are they willing to do to solve their problems and possibly save all of humanity to boot?

  ‘Tarawih’ (Arabic) comes from the root word that means to take a rest, and take rest I did.Notes After Terawih is a series of word sketches I drew based on my distracted observation during night prayers, or terawih prayers, done in a single mosque during Ramadhan. Thousands of us here in Singapore engage in terawih for thirty nights in a row – that’s a huge multitude of experiences. Yet, all these experiences are tucked within the walls of the mosque and ultimately remain in Ramadhan... As a new kid in this terawih thing, I decided to take some notes. None of these were written on the spot. Instead, they were recalled and typed on my phone as I headed home for the night.

  When Fear Is Not Afraid - The...

  Reality is breaking, verse is to blame, and Oscar Teabag-Dooven is absolutely the wrong cat to fix it.  
  Oscar never meant to get tangled in a plot involving forbidden vaults, exploding cafés and an ex-poet turned reality-warping megalomaniac. But here he is, paws-deep in syllables and sabotage, trying to stop a transformation that could obliterate everything.  
  Joined by Tabby Miss Cakes, an insane librarian who punches everyone in the face, they become the most unlikely duo to save reality. As powerful poets conspire to re-scribe the world itself, they’re the only hope against a conspiracy that threatens to plunge civilization into an Armageddon that makes Bedlam of the second Dooven book look like a good way to cook eggs.  
  Hilariously deadpan, wildly inventive and threaded with unexpected poignancy, When Fear Is Not Afraid launches the Velvet Paw of Asquith’s Morigan Tetralogy with flair, fire and masses of confusion.  
  Welcome back to the New Fable fiction genre, where fluffy just got even dangerouser.  
  “Finally, a reason to remain illiterate. Much like the author, I suspect.” - Damian Smith-Meyers, Accountant, Billiot Financial. 
  “What’s the difference between Corfield and Byron? Pretty much everything.” - Simon Davidson, Byronian Scholar. 
  “Corfield is a dreamer of everything and a master of nothing.” - Phillip P. Burgess, Professor of Anatomy, UAMS.
