  May-Day and Other Pieces

  Ralph Waldo Emerson

  Spring arrives with a rush of words, and Ralph Waldo Emerson stands at the threshold, pen in hand. May-Day and Other Pieces is not just a collection of poems—it is an invitation to witness the shifting tides of nature, thought, and destiny through the eyes of one of America's sharpest philosophical minds.
  From the awakening landscapes of May-Day to the untamed wilderness of The Adirondacs, Emerson moves effortlessly between the grandeur of the world and the depths of the soul. The mysticism of Brahma, the inevitability of Fate, the defiance of Freedom—each poem is a meditation, a spark meant to ignite the reader's own reflection. History echoes in the Boston Hymn, sung as the Civil War reshaped a nation, while the lyrical simplicity of My Garden and Seashore captures fleeting moments of peace amid the rush of existence.
  Yet, Emerson never lingers too long in stillness. He follows the restless course of Two Rivers, listens to the quiet solitude of Waldeinsamkeit, and faces the finality of Terminus with unwavering clarity. This is poetry that questions, poetry that endures. It is a journey through seasons, through America, through the self—one that leaves the reader standing on the shore, looking out at the vastness, changed.
  May-Day and Other Pieces is more than verse. It is a conversation with the universe, and Emerson, ever the sage, is still speaking.

  "Outstanding memoir . . . as well as closely observed, poignant, and wistful." —C. J. Box, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Three-Inch Teeth 
   
   
   
  A captivating, unfiltered account of growing up on a ranch, where every decision defines character 
   
   
   
  A Sometimes Paradise is a moving personal journey into the rugged beauty and hardscrabble challenges of Wyoming ranch life that shaped Mark Miller as a boy and then as a young man. 
   
   
   
  Against the backdrop of deadly ice storms and punishing droughts in a harsh, unforgiving environment, Mark shares stories of adventures, misadventures, and invaluable lessons he learned along the way. As he adapted to the rugged Wyoming terrain, he forged an unbreakable connection with the land and animals—and discovered the true power of family and friendship. 
   
   
   
  An eloquent account of self-discovery, A Sometimes Paradise paints a vivid portrait of resilience and a steadfast commitment to a vanishing way of life. More than a memoir, it is a testament to the enduring spirit of the American West and the people who call it home.

  I Was Famous on the Internet

  You are about to experience my journey of being famous on the Internet. I reached the top—millions of followers, billions of views, six-figure months, and fans in every country. From the outside, it looked like everything people chase. Inside, it felt like a prison I built. Every click and dollar cost my peace, my family, and my sanity. In I Was Famous on the Internet, I take you behind the scenes of online fame—not the filtered dream, but the raw truth of what it does to your mind and soul. I went from a broke ex-police officer to a top Udemy instructor earning millions, became an early crypto YouTuber and a Facebook Gaming partner, and burned out until I deleted everything. You will see how platforms hook creators and audiences, how algorithms reward addiction and punish authenticity, and how chasing numbers never fills the emptiness inside. You will see the trap that turns dreamers into slaves to attention, and the wake-up call that made me walk away. I reveal how screens reshaped my family, how I justified my own addiction as work, and what it felt like to realize I was no different from my kids. You will read about wild highs (a $90,000 month) and brutal lows (burnout, bankruptcy, public humiliation), and how each crash became a new beginning until I finally saw through the illusion. This book is my confession, my warning, and my gift. If you dream of going viral, being a creator, or quitting your job to chase freedom online, I want you to know what it is really like. If you spend hours scrolling, I want you to see what you are giving up. By the end, you will understand why I deleted the channels, the followers, and the income—and why that was the best decision of my life. I found peace not by becoming more successful online, but by becoming human again. Are you ready to see what Internet fame really feels like—the truth behind the dream, the cost of the clicks, and the freedom that waits when you finally log off?

  Mothercare - On Obligation Love...

  Brilliantly original novelist and cultural critic Lynne Tillman became one of nearly 53 million Americans who care for a sick family member when her mother developed an unusual and little understood condition called Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus. 
   
   
   
  Instantly, Tillman's independent and spirited mother went from someone she knew to someone else, a woman entirely dependent on her children—an eleven-year process through which her mother underwent many surgeries and some misdiagnoses, while the family navigated consultations and confrontations with doctors, adjusting to the complexity of her cognitive issues, including memory loss. 
   
   
   
  With her notoriously exquisite writing style and reputation as a "rich noticer of strange things" (Colm Toíbín), Tillman describes, without flinching, the unexpected, heartbreaking, and frustrating years of caring for a sick parent. 
   
   
   
  Mothercare is both a cautionary tale and sympathetic guidance for anyone who suddenly becomes a caregiver, responsible for the life of another—a parent, loved or not, or a friend. This story may be helpful, informative, consoling, or upsetting, but it never fails to underscore how impossible it is to get the job done completely right.
