  James Hargrove is a math teacher who loves order, formulas, and the neat precision of his classroom. But when summer break arrives, James finds himself adrift in time and space, far from the structured world of equations he knows so well. Meanwhile, his wife Mei—a Chinese teacher with a love for poetry and pandas—embraces the season with passion, spending her days at the zoo, marveling at the simplicity and charm of her favorite black-and-white creatures. 
  In a dusty attic, James stumbles upon an old typewriter and unexpectedly discovers a new passion—writing. What begins as a whimsical hobby quickly evolves into The Algebraic Adventures of Archimedes Jones, a tale of a mathematician-turned-adventurer who uses his knowledge of equations to navigate magical worlds. As James pours his heart into creating realms where logic meets fantasy, he learns to let go of the rigid rules that once defined him, and to embrace the joy of imagination. 
  Mei becomes his greatest supporter, offering encouragement, inspiration, and plenty of suggestions—like adding a panda who knows calculus. Through their contrasting interests and shared love for each other’s passions, James and Mei discover new depths in their relationship. As his stories gain a small but devoted following, James learns that storytelling can be as powerful as teaching, and that sometimes, the most meaningful mysteries are those that can’t be solved with numbers alone. 
  Filled with warmth, humor, and a touch of romance, The Algebraic Adventures of Archimedes Jones is a heartwarming story about finding magic in the mundane, the beauty of contrasts, and the joy of embracing life’s unexpected adventures. It’s perfect for readers who believe that there’s room for whimsy in even the most practical lives, and that sometimes, the most profound equations are written not in chalk, but in love and laughter.

  Most folks worldwide have visited a flea market, swap shop, or bazaar. Still, few take the time to get to know the variety of vendors peddling their lightly used or dubiously acquired inventory every weekend. At the Dusty Bucket, a self-described "androgynous pansexual with no more ambition nowadays than making a living as a flea market 'artist," sets up a table with their recently deceased mother's unremarkable collectibles. The booth neighbor sells discount cigarettes and has a tale of bluster for every occasion. High strangeness captures the narrator's attention, as well as that of market regulars with a penchant for seeing the supernatural where it probably doesn't exist. Then again, an apparent caveman does appear out of thin air, and the narrator senses a song-like vibration in their feet rather than hearing it. By the final tally, a misfit team of muddied merchants might be the world's only protection from an ancient existential threat. [Winner: 2024 International Impact Award for Best Humor Fiction]

  All Because of a Love Note - How...

  Two words saved my life, two modest, but mighty words—THANK YOU! The most compelling chapter of my story began with a Love Note, one simple handwritten gesture of love, hope and gratitude. 
  My purpose was handed to me in the shape of an envelope, a simple, paper container with a sealable flap that holds a little bit of hope for our everyday heroes. As it turned out, a life of stationery was my destiny, not a stationary life. And it all began on the heels of a broken heart. 
  For the better part of my life, I dreamed of and even prayed for an epic love story, and this is a love story on so many levels. I just never expected it to come at such a great toll. But then again, if you look back through the course of history, the greatest love stories always do. 
  Natalie June Reilly is a freelance writer and every bit her mother's daughter. She is the founder of Nothing but Love Notes, a movement that has inspired a generation of love and gratitude. Somewhere along the way, she unearthed her happy ending, landing the beach, the boy and now the book. None of this would have been possible, if not for God's grace, a mother's love and a handwritten Love Note.

  The Color Tan chronicles Patricia Marie Krentcil's odyssey from Pale Girl to beloved "Tan Mom," who is known around the world today. Patricia's candid, in-depth view of her time before and after becoming the world's foremost tanning celebrity will give readers her perspective as she unveils who Tan Mom really is beneath all that bronzer. The one and only Tan Mom invites her fans to take a look at her life through her eyelash extensions with this unvarnished picture of the tannest woman to ever grace the airwaves. 
  She's more than just a Wack Packer. She's more than just the embodiment of the color burnt umber. She's more than just a chart-topping musical phenom. She's more than just a reality TV star who is always at odds with porn stars. She's Tan Mom, and she's here to set the record straight, like only Tan Mom can. 
  It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single woman in possession of good skin must be in want of a tan. In The Color Tan, Patricia gives us a raw, behind-the-scenes look--which may or may not be entirely factual--at the true cost of that SPF-free lifestyle which led to her becoming the iconic superstar she is today.
