  Timmy Overton of Austin and Jerry Ray James of Odessa were football stars who traded athletics for lives of crime. The original rebels without causes, nihilists with Cadillacs and Elvis hair, the Overton gang and their associates formed a ragtag white trash mafia that bedazzled Austin law enforcement for most of the 1960s. Tied into a loose network of crooked lawyers, pimps, and used car dealers who became known as the "traveling criminals," they burglarized banks and ran smuggling and prostitution rings all over Texas. Author Jesse Sublett presents a detailed account of these Austin miscreants, who rose to folk hero status despite their violent criminal acts.

  Wake the Others - A Biography of...

  Willy Palomo

  Half-memoir, half-biography, Wake The Others wrestles with the legacy of the Salvadoran Civil War. Blending lyric and narrative, Palomo traces his mother’s childhood, war experiences, family separation, migration, and its aftermath. Political without sacrificing craft, confessional without navel-gazing, this debut collection of poetry guides readers through the quagmire of family secrets to a place where healing is possible. 
  "Willy Palomo’s outstanding debut takes a scalpel to the heart of biography as a genre, cuts through to the arteries of inherited nostalgia for a motherland, and opens the capillaries of a mama, abuela, and bisabuela’s traumas. This book is a gut wrenching family narrative of the history of violence in El Salvador and a family’s journey north in hope of stability and the possibility of joy. Palomo’s poems are an important and unique addition to the growing voice of Central American writers in the United States.”  
  —Natalie Scenters-Zapico, author of The Verging Cities and Lima :: Limón

  What if your brain wasn’t the enemy... but the tool you’ve never learned how to use properly? 
  You wake up with that familiar tension in your chest. Your thoughts race before your feet even touch the floor. You overthink, avoid, procrastinate, repeat. You’ve tried to “calm down,” but your brain seems wired for panic. 
  Here’s the truth: 
  Anxiety doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means your brain’s trying to protect you — just in the wrong way. And once you understand how that wiring works, you can start changing it. You can interrupt the panic patterns, replace the fear loops, and actually feel good again. 
  This audiobook gives you a toolkit for that shift — from overthinking to clarity, from mental exhaustion to resilience. 
  Here’s what you’ll take away: 
  •	Why your anxiety isn’t just “in your head” — and what’s really triggering it 
  •	The link between low moods, low energy, and how your brain processes stress 
  •	What your brain needs to feel safe — and why it’s not getting it 
  •	The exact moment negative thoughts take over (and how to stop them mid-loop) 
  •	Easy-to-follow brain rewiring techniques you can use anywhere 
  •	A simple way to build habits that don’t fall apart after a week 
  •	How to talk to yourself without sounding fake or cringey 
  •	Everyday rituals that quietly boost your mood and focus 
  •	What mindfulness really is (no incense required) and why it works 
  •	How to bounce back fast when old triggers sneak back inIf you’re tired of thinking your way in circles, this is your way out. Start rewiring. Start thinking clearly again. And start feeling like yourself — for real this time.
