After a promising debut novel, an almost forgotten second novel, and no shot at publishing his third book, Jacob Finch Bonner finds himself teaching in a pay-to-play MFA program. He’s got a plot idea that’s so good the writing won’t There’s so much tension here, as Jacob knows he’s stolen his best book, and it really is a great book. I mean, I didn’t exactly want Jacob to be rewarded with a bestseller for being such a half-hearted writing teacher and plot-thief, but I also didn’t

Dana LeCheminant - I studied Creative Writing in school, and while that gave me a good framework for starting on this publishing journey, I've written a whole lot that will probably never see the light of day. Dana LeCheminant - I have a spin-off series planned that follows some side characters that show up in the final Simple Love Story, Let Go, and I'm so excited to branch out into a slightly different style from this series.

I am Great White Shark, and if you get this book, you’ll read all about ME–the greatest shark in the sea! New York Times bestselling author Joan Holub makes a splash with bestselling illustrator Laurie Keller to deliver an entertaining undersea story that encourages self-acceptance and self-esteem, and is filled with humor and the greatest shark facts in the ocean! A little friend helps him realize that everyone’s different, and it’s great to be who you are! And when they realize that someone even as jawsome as the Great White Shark has moments of self-doubt, I hope they’ll enjoy and absorb Lantern Shark’s message of self-acceptance

I’m a writer, blogger and translator, originally from Poland but now live in the Netherlands with my German husband and three multilingual and multicultural children. I have written for US and UK magazines and newspapers, including the New York Times, The BBC, The Guardian and many others and my first book, “Niksen. Embracing the Dutch Art of Doing Nothing” is out in eight countries now, including the US where it has been published with Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. In fact, the only way I did nothing at that time was when I wasn’t able to do anything else because I was too exhausted from hours of distance learning.

But few names have lasted in our history books as predominantly as Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony. Harriet Tubman & the Sewards: A Friendship Made Along the Underground Railroad in Auburn 4: Uncover History at these Underground Railroad Sites in Syracuse 5: Retracing the Footsteps of Frederick Douglass and the Underground Railroad in Rochester If you’d like to learn even more about Frederick Douglass, I highly encourage you to check out Frederick Douglass’s Rochester, a year-long project by Open Mic Rochester and CITY newspaper. They honor the likes of Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony all throughout town.

It just felt that way since he’d fallen in love with her the day they met in Microeconomics, on his first day of classes at the University of Arizona. Maybe two years ago it wasn’t real,” she said in a way that made Billy think she really didn’t believe that. It was Billy’s favorite Mexican food in Tucson, not too expensive, great food. Emma’s body was half in, half out of the pond, a good hundred feet beyond him, obscured in part by an outcrop of large rocks on the water’s edge.

Self reflection, inner work, efforts to raise consciousness and depth and clarity of perception, to serve society in an authentic sense, carry little value. A dangerously polarized world unable to understand or empathize with the perspective of others, a wholesale disconnect from the natural world and the interdependence between personal/social/economic well being and healthy ecosystems, and a devaluation of the pursuit of truth, be it empirical scientific or matters of the heart and human relationships. An aspiration and priority for a broader epistemology must be firmly established in the education culture and society at large, one that honors, supports and validates intuitive creativity, visioning, play, meditation, reflective discussion (ongoing), service, critical thinking, and the aspiration to truth. Through enlightened charter schools, independent schools, un-schooling, home school groups, teacher development, curricular models, town meetings, blogs, film, music, theater, media and much more, we can all contribute to helping to create a more enlightened society through education.
