Under the guidance of veteran author and writing teacher Barbara Abercrombie, you'll learn how to turn the messy, crazy, sad, and wonderful stuff of your life into prose or poetry that has order, clarity, and meaning. Abercrombie presents the nuts and bolts of several genres, showing you how to keep a journal, craft a personal essay, or write a memoir, autobiography, poem, or work of fiction. She offers lessons to embolden you as a writer and practical guidelines for working writing into your everyday life, giving and receiving feedback, and getting your work published. In Courage & Craft, you'll find exercises to keep the inner critic at bay, inspiration from writers who've been there, and proven advice for getting your words on the page and out into the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Barbara Abercrombie’s husband died, she found the language of condolence irritating, no matter how well intended. “My husband had not gone to a better place as if he were off on a holiday. He had not passed like clouds overhead, nor was he my late husband as if he’d missed a train. I had not lost him as if I’d been careless, and for sure, none of it was for the best.” She yearned instead for words that acknowledged the reality of death, spoke about the sorrow and loneliness (and perhaps even guilt and anger), and might even point the way toward hope and healing. She found those words in the writings gathered here. The Language of Loss is a book to dip into and read slowly, a collection of poems and prose to lead you through the phases of grief. The selections follow an arc that mirrors the path of many mourners — from abject loss and feeling unmoored, to glimmers of promise and possibility, through to gratitude for the love they knew. These writings, which express what often feels ineffable, will accompany those who grieve, offering understanding and solace.

Book excerpt: In this debut collection, Wil Perkins has created a new poetics, star-spangled by the improvisational essence of jazz, the heartfelt essence of the blues and gospels, as well as mystical riffs for the moonish sundance of life. These poems, crafted in the experimental tradition of John Coltrane and e.e. cummings, are a sculptural feast for the eyes, irreverent music for the soul, and serious songs to hail the coming millennium.

Book excerpt: Ed Turner has arrived at his fiftieth high-school reunion for the class of '68, only to learn that everyone there thinks he died fifty years ago. Surely, there's been a mix-up. But Ed soon comes to believe that he's either delusional or entered an alternate reality, where another version of him did die at age eighteen. As Ed becomes increasingly desperate to find a way out of this mind-bending nightmare, he is aided by a quirky high-school student who reads college physics books, a crusty old quantum physicist, and classmates at the reunion: including a psychiatrist, a pastor and a fisherman from Alaska. And he encounters Ellen, who he never dated but who could have been the love of his life. But nothing can prepare Ed for the startling appearance of a late-arriving guest, who will challenge everything he thought was possible and force him to confront the tragedy that has shaped his life.68 takes the reader into a mysterious realm that science is only now beginning to understand. Shadowed by the tumult of Ed's graduation year-brutal war in Vietnam, political upheaval and great rock and roll-68 shows us that even in a new universe, the most important things never change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a half century, the experience of Resistance has formed a central reference point within the world of Italian politics and culture. The essays that make up Never Give In offer a critical assessment both of that legacy, and some of the major political forces that have laid claim to it. At the same time, the authors of these essays argue that the Resistance continues as more than simply nostalgia. In each of their historiographical revisions, they also show - even in the much more complicated and less heroic accounts of what happened - a continuing ethic, a way of being and acting politically that is of abiding relevance.
