Book Description
This book is a collection of writings by people serving a sentence of Life With Out Parole in Iowa's prisons. Each contribution provides insight to the reader of how these 27 people have changed the way they think and what they have accomplished since their conviction. Much attention is being given today to the cost of incarceration, Mass Incarceration, mental health issues in prison, the length of sentences, over-crowing in the prison system and issues of Re-entry when people are released back into society. But rarely, if ever, are you given the opportunity to hear or read the words of men or women who are currently serving a life sentence in Iowa. Rarely, if ever, do you have the opportunity to learn how they think and what they think or feel as they go about their lives inside the walls.This book is not like the movies. It does not glamorize the criminal life style nor does it dramatize the lives of prisoners. It is simply 27 lifers, serving Life With Out the possibility of Parole (LWOP) telling you what they are like and what they have done since being convicted, IN THEIR OWN WORDS.

Book Description
Inside the mind is a collection of poems that I've written in the past few years. All have an original taste of expressions and none are one in the same. While some poems in this book can be deemed dark others can be considered pure and good. The range is a flowing collection that opens the mind to moods that people could possibly be going through. In reading, keep in mind these are only writings, which NONE reflect actions taken or anyone being harmed. With that in mind I do hope you enjoy this poetry collection!

Book Description
"An intricate magic system, a grimly humorous Black heroine, AND a heart-thumping romance? This book leaves nothing wanting." - Jordan Ifueko, New York Times bestselling author of Raybearer Andromeda is a debtera—an exorcist hired to cleanse households of the Evil Eye. She would be hired, that is, if her mentor hadn’t thrown her out before she could earn her license. Now her only hope of steady work is to find a Patron—a rich, well-connected individual who will vouch for her abilities. When a handsome young heir named Magnus Rorschach reaches out to hire her, she takes the job without question. Never mind that he’s rude and demanding and eccentric, that the contract comes with a number of outlandish rules... and that almost a dozen debtera had quit before her. If Andromeda wants to earn a living, she has no choice. But she quickly realizes this is a job like no other, with horrifying manifestations at every turn, and that Magnus is hiding far more than she has been trained for. Death is the most likely outcome if she stays, the reason every debtera before her quit. But leaving Magnus to live out his curse alone isn’t an option because—heaven help her—she’s fallen for him. Stunningly romantic, Lauren Blackwood's heartstopping debut, Within These Wicked Walls, ushers in an exciting new fantasy voice. "Fierce, eerie and heartfelt... a romantic and spine-chilling reimagining of a classic. I loved every creepy, swoon-worthy moment of it." - Laura E. Weymouth, author of The Light Between Worlds
