  When his father the king dies, Prince Rouland's uncle Sewal accuses him of using magic to murder him. He has the palace wizard bind Rouland's magic then orders his execution, planning on taking over the throne as the heir apparent. However, Rouland manages to flee the city, only to be arrested for stealing bread from a baker's shop. With no magic, he must rely on his thieving skills and the aid of his familiar, Ebony, to escape the jail.
  On the run, he finds a safe haven at Bernard's farm. He leaves when Bernard learns who he truly is, but only after Bernard suggests he find a powerful wizard to break the binding of his magic.
  Soon after, Rouland meets Jarvis, a farmer's son who asks if he may join him in his travels. Rouland agrees and the pair begins to bond. He lets Jarvis know about his thieving skills, but not the truth of who he is -- until forced to in order to explain why he's searching for a wizard. Jarvis accepts it with no reservations as by then they have become more than merely friends.
  The question becomes, can Rouland find a wizard willing to help him? If so, will Rouland be able to stop his uncle Sewal's coronation as the new king and take his rightful place as heir to the throne?

  ‘April Ashley was born, aged twenty-five, on 12 May 1960. It was a difficult birth at the Clinique du Parc on rue Lapébie, a back street running parallel to the admired avenue d’Amade in Casablanca, on a day when the Moroccan sunshine was behaving the way the guidebooks say it should . . .’ 
  Through her own – often bloody-minded – determination and the medical skill of others, April Ashley became the woman she had always believed herself to be. 
  And for half a dozen decades she soared around, over and above momentous and turbulent times, difficult, and changing times when, finally, who you wanted to be and who you could be became the cultural topic of the day. 
  She overcame opprobrium and penury and became renowned and celebrated for one specific achievement: being April Ashley. 
  This raw, moving and funny memoir reveals April’s life as never before.

  Crispin: I spend a lot of time at Collared and Tied, where I can always find a willing sub who needs a punishment. Tonight, though, I'm worried when I notice someone sitting in a car outside the club, and it's worse when I realize who it is. Inspector Samuelson -- what is he doing there? Does he know what the club is, and did he see me go inside?
  
  John: I'm gay, and a top, but I'm not into kink. But defence lawyer Crispin Tudor must be, I realized that when he claimed friendship with a man I know is submissive. That's fine, but why does the thought of him linger with me so much? And if he's actually dominant, what does that make me? Do I really want to submit to another man?

  Barefoot strangers crashing a beloved cat's funeral leads to horrified pearl clutching, wacky adventures, and blossoming friendships in Megan Okonsky's hilariously irreverent debut. 
   
  Tombstone, Texas, has never seen anything like the barefoot travelers who barrel in one afternoon, looking like they just stepped out of the seventies. They appear right in the middle of Pinky Elizabeth Swear's eulogy for her beloved rescue cat, Sweet Potato Grace (may she rest in eternal peace and abundance of goat cheese). To be honest, Pinky is relieved at the interruption. She'd planned to use the second half of her eulogy to come out of the closet. Now, she doesn't have to. 
   
  Are the newcomers a circus troupe? Revolutionaries? A sinister cult? While the town grows suspicious and rumor mills churn, Pinky finds herself drawn to the charisma of the barefoot strangers. Perhaps, she starts to think, the wrath of Tombstone is a thing worth risking in order to be true to oneself.

  Dan and Steve, two ships passing in the night, so to speak, find each other and a lucky penny before heading into a private airline-club room.

  Fate, plus a little bit of luck, brought them together, but will they ever dock at the same port again? 
  Note: This short story was originally published in the charity collection, Love Is Proud.
