My Gift to You
"The events that inspired these verses are collections of memories and fragments that have merged to form poems. The stories of loving experiences between players, that looking for love or company ended up with a wounded heart. These stanzas represent detailed images of the experiences leading to disenchantments and frustrations that loving and losing produces; without forgetting the sublime rapture and ecstasy that loving also inspires. These verses touch the essence of the heart and soul, appealing to that collective need we call love; that human sentiment so powerful, that it can make us touch heaven or sink us to darkest depths of hell."

The Western Horse
This book celebrates the history and culture of the western horse, its ability to capture the popular imagination, and the means by which it has come to symbolize the American West. Beginning in the 1500s, The Western Horse delves into the origins and variations of the western breeds, their role in the expansion and settlement of the West, and the lawless element they attracted. The 1800s is when the stereotypes of Western Americana flourish accompanied by the ever-present horse. The mounted Plains tribes, cavalry, Pony Express, pioneers, stock detectives, cowboys, horse thieves, and the iconic rodeos come into perspective. The book dispels some of the falsehoods of the western horse and replace those inaccuracies with interesting facts. Case in point: many people grow up believing that the wild mustangs are the offspring the conquistador’s horses. While that belief is partially true, it is also partially incorrect. While the conquistadors returned with horses re-introducing them to the American landmass, the Spaniards only rode stallions. The progenitors of the mustangs likely occurred a bit later—lost stock of the Spanish settlers and the missions that returned into the wild.
The Wapsipinicon Almanac
"The Wapsipinicon Almanac was published by Route 3 Press in Anamosa, Iowa for more than 25 years. It was handmade on antique letterpress equipment by Timothy Fay and featured stories, reviews, essays, and poems. The first issue, published in 1988, sold out, and the publication subsequently became a staple of the Iowa literary scene. Each subsequent issue was a carefully curated collection of critical essays, short stories, book reviews, Iowa history, news blurbs, poetry, beautiful artwork, and charming black and white advertisements of the mom-and-pop businesses who supported the Almanac and serve their communities in every aspect from the arts to agriculture. Fay crafted each issue with a sharp but also lighthearted focus on Midwestern concerns-culled from a variety of perspectives. Now, Midwesterners will be able to peruse the best of the Wapsi in one volume-both text and images-along with an introduction from Tim Fay that will acquaint them with his rare, artisanal process and this valuable repository of Iowa voices and history"--
