Book Description
This is a book of short stories of everyday human emotional experiences. Stories of profound loss. Stories of great friendships. Stories of growing old with a dog, of going to war, and of course, stories of deep romantic love. I hope the stories encourage the reader to do some introspection on what it means to be human. I believe the poems, like all art, will mean more to some than to others.

Book Description
Focusing specifically on the poetic construction of India, ‘Mapping the Nation’ offers a broad selection of poetry written by Indians in English during the period 1870–1920. Centering upon the “mapping” of India – both as a regional location and as a poetic ideal – this unique anthology presents poetry from various geographical nodal points of the subcontinent, as well as that written in the imperial metropole of England, to illustrate how the variety of India’s poetical imagining corresponded to the diversity of her inhabitants and geography.

Book Description
There is an important place in the literary world for short stories and always has been. Many of the world’s greatest spiritual leaders and teachers have done their most effective teaching in the form of short stories and parables. Who are we to ignore what they have taught us about the form or process of teaching as well as the content? In this world of overloaded focus on content, perhaps it is the awareness of changing form and process that will ultimately save us as a species and a planet. Who knows? Certainly we can leave no stone unturned in our quest to heal and grow personally, as a society, and as a planet. We need all the help we can get. Schaef is well-experienced in the world of living life, observing, and participating with others as we all attempt to bumble along together. This is a warning before you begin to read.

Book Description
Some people keep journals - with daily entries being tallied everyday - while others write poetry and fiction short stories, as well as getting the occasional tattoo. All of these contain clues into their daily lives, emotional and physical journeys, and chronicles of their newest epiphanies, accomplishments, realizations, and milestones - small, medium, and large. Run on sentence much? This book, Michael DeBenedictis' sixth self-published volume - a collection of poems and fiction short stories - does just that. It also contains pieces that reach out to others to tell of observations and stories that encompass experiences of the collective "everyone else" and "others", as well as snippets of daily life in his own small town though his eyes. There also exists a personal journal - sitting atop one of his bookcases - that isn't necessarily written in every day, but will still not see the light of day, however.
