Book excerpt: Embedded in these pages you will find the soul and ardor of our local writers. This initial anthology celebrates the diversity that lies in and within the shared experiences of writers hailing from the Bronx and our sister boroughs. This collection of poems honors the authenticity of our jungle streets, the rawness of our bare existence, and our ability to grapple with ourselves through the art of poetry writing as reflection. We write from the fire, flames, and fumes we inherited from the Bronx, that instead of destroying us, built and raised us. This is BX Writers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fire and Ink is a powerful and impassioned anthology of stories, poems, interviews, and essays that confront some of the most pressing social issues of our day. Designed to inspire and inform, this collection embodies the concepts of Òbreaking silence,Ó Òbearing witness,Ó resistance, and resilience. Beyond students and teachers, the book will appeal to all readers with a commitment to social justice. Fire and Ink brings together, for the first time in one volume, politically engaged writing by poets, fiction writers, and essayists. Including many of our finest writersÑMart’n Espada, Adrienne Rich, June Jordan, Patricia Smith, Gloria Anzaldœa, Sharon Olds, Arundhati Roy, Sonia Sanchez, Carolyn Forche, Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni, Alice Walker, Linda Hogan, Gary Soto, Kim Blaeser, Minnie Bruce Pratt, Li-Young Lee, and Jimmy Santiago Baca, among othersÑthis is an indispensable collection. This groundbreaking anthology marks the emergence of social action writing as a distinct field within creative writing and literature. Featuring never-before-published pieces, as well as reprinted material, Fire and Ink is divided into ten sections focused on significant social issues, including identity, sexuality and gender, the environment, social justice, work, war, and peace. The pieces can often be gripping, such as ÒFrame,Ó in which Adrienne Rich confronts government and police brutality, or Chris AbaniÕs ÒOde to Joy,Ó which documents great courage in the face of mortal danger. Fire and Ink serves as a wonderful reader for a wide range of courses, from composition and rhetoric classes to courses in ethnic studies, gender studies, American studies, and even political science, by facing a past that was often accompanied by injustice and suffering. But beyond that, this collection teaches us that we all have the power to create a more equitable and just future. Ê

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three gripping true crime classics in one volume, from the New York Times–bestselling author. From the acclaimed journalist and author, three chilling tales of depravity, death, and detective work including: NO ANGELS Late one night in 1997, fourteen-year-old Brandy DuVall waited at a bus stop in the Denver area when, for reasons that are still a mystery, she got into a car with several young men. The consequence was an unimaginable nightmare of torture, rape, and murder at the hands of a vicious Denver street gang. The crime, investigation, and subsequent court cases—including four murder trials and two death penalty hearings—tore apart families, and affected all who were caught up in the brutal crime and its aftermath. SMOOTH TALKER As seen on Investigation Discovery’s Epic Mysteries series Anita Andrews was found in her own bar, stabbed to death in a bloody frenzy. She'd last been seen alive talking to a customer, a drifter playing cards and flirting with her. A month later, Michele Wallace was driving near Crested Butte, Colorado, when she gave two stranded motorists a ride. She was never seen alive again. Fourteen years later, Charlotte Sauerwin, engaged to be married, met a smooth-talking man at a Laundromat in Livingston Parish, Louisiana. The next evening, her body was found in the woods. The three murders would remain unsolved until a rookie Gunnison County sheriff’s investigator named Kathy Young began investigating . . . ROUGH TRADE On a morning in May 1997, a couple on their way to work spotted a man dragging a woman’s body up a trail. The subsequent investigation into the death of young streetwalker Anita Paley would lead from that idyllic spot to the seamy underbelly of Denver and a world of prostitution, drug dealers, and violent criminals. This is the story of two people from that world whose paths crossed first on the streets and then at a murder trial: Robert Riggan, a violent sexual predator, and Joanne Cordova, a former cop-turned-prostitute, who risked her life to testify.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quick! You've got twenty-five minutes to tell a story. Make it artful and engaging, funny or fiendish or fantastic (or all three!). Tell us a tale that rivets our attention from Sentence One and builds to a shattering climax. Oh, and there's one more thing: Your story must mention marshmallows, Thomas Jefferson and the freezing cold of interstellar space. Go! That's what happens every Saturday morning, when the OC Writers Guild gathers to hone their craft. There's no telling what they'll be asked to write about-dinosaurs, Davy Crockett, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon-but those three random prompts make some of the cleverest micro-fiction ever to fill a notebook. And the fruits of their frenzy are available for the first time in this book. Because Orange County, California is not just the home of Disneyland and sun-drenched beaches. With tales of passion and pufferfish, heaving bosoms and high-topped shoes, doo-wop dancing and Sputnik and sassafras-the OC is the place to go for quality, random-topic fiction. Just don't take too long. Here in the land of the perfect tan, you can never get enough Brevity in Paradise.
