Start with Hello


Book Description

A simple path to a more deeply connected life You want more. You want to belong to a community that looks out for each other. You believe in your bones we don't have to live detached, distracted, and divided. The question is, How? Shannan Martin invites you into deeper connection through simple resets, such as · Open Door > Perfect Décor. We invite others in, seeking to connect, not impress. · Familiar > Fussy. We serve tacos and pizza like the feasts they are, because fancy is overrated. · Tender > Tough. We greet the world with our hearts exposed and our guards down. Packed with street-level practices and real-talk storytelling, Start with Hello is your field guide for a life of security, camaraderie, and joy. There is no step too small. "As it turns out, there is no them but only us, and this is the book we both want and need to help us find our way back to each other."--Emily P. Freeman, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of The Next Right Thing "Start with Hello is a love letter to community and a call to action toward radical, realistic hospitality."--Osheta Moore, pastor, speaker, and author of Dear White Peacemakers "This book will change you in a way you've been craving to change. It makes being a neighbor, not to mention a person, just so beautifully . . . doable."--Kendra Adachi, New York Times bestselling author of The Lazy Genius Way "This book is lovely, warm, honest. It brims with possibility."--Jen Hatmaker, New York Times bestselling author of Fierce, Free, and Full of Fire




All New Letters from a Nut


Book Description

He's back: the curse of customer service departments everywhere--Ted L. Nancy, letter writer extraordinaire whose imbecilic queries have a way of eliciting equally idiotic answers from some of the world’s biggest companies and dignitaries. From the bestselling author of Letters from a Nut comes the latest collection of seemingly serious but crazed correspondence. All New Letters from a Nut includes more than 200 letters, from bizarre to outright loony requests and compliments written by Mr. Nancy to Icelandic malls, German theme parks, shoe museums, foreign presidents, commode companies, waffle cone businesses, and the Hotel Del Fino in Greece along with their equally sincere but hilarious responses. With his previous books, Ted L. Nancy distinguished himself as America's favorite postal humorist. This latest compilation highlights his comic status through letters to an upscale Amsterdam hotel requesting a room for his 300 hamsters and him to put on his play HAMSTERDAM; to Vons Supermarkets complaining that their Diet Black Cherry soda is sending him paranormal messages; to Armour Meats seeking a 59-foot piece of bologna and a note to the City of Glendale, California, asking for help in starting his new comedy club, THE JOKESTRAP; and many more…. Throughout Ted L. Nancy demonstrates his genius for convincing people his absurd queries are dead serious, demonstrated by the responses he receives. All New Letters From a Nut is unabashedly silly, unapologetically sophomoric, and 100% funny. With a foreword by Jerry Seinfeld




After The Flight


Book Description

This collection of poems is the second of Michael DeBenedictis' self-publications, a follow-up to Mr. Swan's Poems. The goal for this sophomore release is to delve deeper, find new ways of communicating, and to expand upon his style, subject matter, and command of the English language. To put it simply, to more colorfully take you a step further into his world and mind. To put it complexly, to present the author to his readers, again, but in a more personal way (short of being face to face) by getting to know his personality, nature, and writer's eccentricities transposed into poetry, down to the words that carry over into the next lines and the pictures of views inside his apartment. All of these poems are original works. The date of the final draft of the compiled, completed work was Tuesday, March 3, 2015.




Shar's Story
