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.

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.

In the vein of bestselling memoirs about mental illness like Andrew Solomon's Noonday Demon, Sarah Hepola's Blackout, and Daniel Smith's Monkey Mind comes a gorgeously immersive, immediately relatable, and brilliantly funny memoir about living life on the razor's edge of panic. The world never made any sense to Amanda Stern--how could she trust time to keep flowing, the sun to rise, gravity to hold her feet to the ground, or even her own body to work the way it was supposed to? Deep down, she knows that there's something horribly wrong with her, some defect that her siblings and friends don't have to cope with. Growing up in the 1970s and 80s in New York, Amanda experiences the magic and madness of life through the filter of unrelenting panic. Plagued with fear that her friends and family will be taken from her if she's not watching-that her mother will die, or forget she has children and just move away-Amanda treats every parting as her last. Shuttled between a barefoot bohemian life with her mother in Greenwich Village, and a sanitized, stricter world of affluence uptown with her father, Amanda has little she can depend on. And when Etan Patz disappears down the block from their MacDougal Street home, she can't help but believe that all her worst fears are about to come true. Tenderly delivered and expertly structured, Amanda Stern's memoir is a document of the transformation of New York City and a deep, personal, and comedic account of the trials and errors of seeing life through a very unusual lens.

They say that in space, no one can hear you...(Yeah, you know what I'm quoting.) But there are lots of places you can still scream and be heard. Especially if you suddenly find yourself on a ship traveling through space. I've been abducted by aliens and auctioned to an alien pirate. My epic love of movies sort of comes in handy, what with all the sci-fi suddenly in my face. Therefore, I don't completely lose my mind when my new owner takes me to his ship where I learn I'm under the control of not one, but *five* space pirates. (...And it's not scary at all when I only meet four of them, and everyone warns me away from the mystery fifth alien.) Luckily, they're not deterred by the fact that I've come to them carrying a passenger. I'm pregnant.Last I saw my ex, he was hell-bent on giving me another beating I wouldn't forget. But with my new 'owners, ' I'm safe for the first time in a long time--and so is my little girl. Not that everything is all raindrops on roses, and innocent kittens: they're pirates. They've got a real addiction to plundering, and a passion for purloining.I'm pretty fond of the former, but when it comes to the thieving, I'm afraid they're going to take more than my body... Piece by piece, all five of my pirates are stealing my *heart.* Beth's Stable is 125K words, and has a HEA with hot pirates. **Note: Beth's Stable is a standalone Reverse Harem romance where five men woo one woman. They're space pirates, but there are no crossed energy sabers in this story. There is a Happily Ever After. You should probably be at least 18 if you crack open this ebook because Beth would hate to corrupt you. (Although if her pirates had met you before they grew completely, totally devoted to her, they would have loved showing you the ropes. Sorry, doves!;D
