Good Grief
We see, hear, know and think about death almost every day of our lives. We see and hear it on TV, radio and movies. We read about it in newspapers, on the Internet and in non-fiction and fictional books. We know it with every personal change and loss we experience. And we think about it consciously or unconsciously when the reality of mortality hits home. Good Grief - Love, Loss & Laughter is a collection of commentaries, stories and true-life events from the highly acclaimed newspaper column Good Grief. These are not your run-of-the-mill Ms. Manners type advice letters, though some are surprising and humorous. Good Grief includes real people, diverse circumstances and practical solutions. Y...

Geography of My Bones
Olivia Diamond's poetry, like her life, begins in the very center of America and makes its way into a much larger world. She has the range to bind her words in classical poetic form and proves herself a master. The geography of her poetry extends from the domestic to the deeply spiritual. She writes with a gentle humorous appreciation of the vagaries of day-to-day life, from holding hands in a movie theater to an imagined conversation between Marilyn Monroe and Dame Edith Sitwell to roasting coffee in Saudi Arabia. Her poetical journey covers growing up in America's heartland to the Middle East. She expresses her experiences in a variety of styles to suit her vision. The inner and outer scenery she explores in her poems evoke both laughter and pain; while her pungent, yet tasty appraisal of humanity summon all five senses to participate in the celebration.

My Mother's Black Child
My Mother's Black Child, by Necholia Johnson Beck, will launch as a trade paperback in July 2004 by Helm Publishing. Rural Arkansas in the 1940's was a place of intolerance where it was difficult enough to grow up as an African-American, but it was twice as hard if you were in a family where the color of your skin mattered more than love itself. Hurt and anger touched a little girl who couldn't understand how her mother would feel so strongly about something that shouldn't matter at all. Only after years of emotional abuse, a special friend made her realize that the content of her character meant more than the color of her skin. This is a story of one woman's fight to gain love from a mother who rejected her from birth based on her dark skin color.
