The Art of Asking
Author: Amanda Palmer
Publisher: Grand Central Publishing
ISBN: 1455581070
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 349
Book Description
Rock star, crowdfunding pioneer, and TED speaker Amanda Palmer knows all about asking. Performing as a living statue in a wedding dress, she wordlessly asked thousands of passersby for their dollars. When she became a singer, songwriter, and musician, she was not afraid to ask her audience to support her as she surfed the crowd (and slept on their couches while touring). And when she left her record label to strike out on her own, she asked her fans to support her in making an album, leading to the world's most successful music Kickstarter. Even while Amanda is both celebrated and attacked for her fearlessness in asking for help, she finds that there are important things she cannot ask for-as a musician, as a friend, and as a wife. She learns that she isn't alone in this, that so many people are afraid to ask for help, and it paralyzes their lives and relationships. In this groundbreaking book, she explores these barriers in her own life and in the lives of those around her, and discovers the emotional, philosophical, and practical aspects of The Art of Asking. Part manifesto, part revelation, this is the story of an artist struggling with the new rules of exchange in the twenty-first century, both on and off the Internet. The Art of Asking will inspire readers to rethink their own ideas about asking, giving, art, and love.

Book Description
When Madge receives a moonstone necklace on her sixteenth birthday, she learns she is not only a mermaid, but also a witch.She isn't supposed to be both.You're either pureblooded Saelfen - what humans call mermaids - or you've got human blood in the mix, making you a witch. And witches don't have the ability to transform. But seeing she's been hidden from her kind since she was two-years-old, her Vala hidden within a necklace until now, it's a shock any of it is real in the first place, let alone the fact she is an impossible anomaly to her kind.As if wrapping her head around the fact she is a mermaid-witch wasn't enough, it also turns out her parents were royals to her kind and didn't die as she's been told they were her whole life but were murdered by her estranged aunt Viviane who is now after her. She is just a Merewif, after all. A witch, like her unworthy mother, and only pureblooded Saelfen have ever been royal and connected to the Council of the Nine, a global network of royal leaders who oversee the realms.Now she must hone her newfound Vala and unravel clues from her mother's tome if she's to not only prove herself fit to lead her kind, but also if she's to save them from an ancient, otherworldly darkness, wielded by her murderous aunt who is hell-bent on having her way. Problem is she must traverse to the Old World to do it, a place riddled with legions of demonic sirens, and Lilith, the siren queen who knows she is coming.

Pages : 378
Book Description
Falling hard and fast for two wolf shifters is enough to push a human woman to the edge of sanity… Adding mysterious Native American spirits puts her entire belief system to the test. Hoping to break free of the stifling religious constraints of her parents, Amanda Williams has fled her childhood home in Oklahoma to join her sister in Montana. Things are looking up. She even has a promising job interview using her degree in anthropology. Now she just needs to get out of the apartment more and meet people. Sawyer Hamilton has reluctantly moved to Montana to take a job as a wildland firefighter. With the exception of one brother, his entire family lives in the area. Every one of his local siblings share their mate with a member of another family, the Masters. He has put off meeting any of them for long enough. If his destiny lies with one of the two remaining unmated Masters, it’s time he faces his fate. Logan Masters is working as a hiking guide for his family’s business. He’s aware Sawyer has moved to town, but has avoided meeting him. He doesn’t have to come face to face with Sawyer to know they will inevitably share the same mate. When his younger sister presses the issue, he is forced to accept his destiny. They are fated to spend their lives together, but who is the woman they will share? Amanda has no idea what she has gotten herself into when she agrees to babysit for her sister’s friend. The unrest she has felt since moving to Montana increases tenfold when she meets the members of the Masters and Bartel-Hamilton families. She has dreamed of two men in her bed for weeks. When she steps in front of them and discovers they are indeed real, she is shocked speechless. Finding themselves mated to a human female, Logan and Sawyer have mountains to climb. In addition to convincing Amanda of her place between them, they must also confront the latest spirit sightings and solve the challenging mysteries Fate has put in their path. This book is a re-release of a previously published book. No additions or changes have been made to the story.
