Is there a better phrase to start a story than "No Shit, There I Was..."? If you hear someone start with that phrase, you know it's going to be worth listening carefully.

“With some of the most beguiling prose this side of The Ladies of Grace Adieu, Jordan Kurella’s When I Was Lost conjures visions from beyond the fields we know. Majestic, often mournful, full of dark wonder and grit, these stories bridge the gap between whimsy and modernist realism, between awe and regret and spectral terror. These are no escapist fairy romances, these are mature stories of pain, of sorrow, of irrevocable loss.

This book considers how a combination of place-based writing and location responsive technologies produce new kinds of literary experiences. Building on the work done in the Ambient Literature Project (2016–2018), this books argues that these encounters constitute new literary forms, in which the authored text lies at the heart of an embodied and mediated experience. The visual, sonic, social and historic resources of place become the elements of a live and emergent mise-en-scène. Specific techniques of narration, including hallucination, memory, history, place based writing, and drama, as well as reworking of traditional storytelling forms combine with the work of app and user experience...
Picking up at the exact moment where Awakening left off, Transformation brings you deeper into Marissa’s (now completely upside-down) world. Will she find her feet while juggling college, shamanism, work, family and relationships, or has it all become too much after her terrifying experience? Only one thing is certain, she has a true friend in her cat, Tobermory, who has been looking after her, perhaps more attentively than she realizes. Filled with treasures and nuggets of wisdom these books will remind you that you too, like Marissa, have the capacity to find the magic within you, and in the world, so that you can live an extraordinary life.
Donna expressed, “Just like that, my 17 years passed by without a rebellion and I’m glad!” After hitting 18, she realized everything that had happened in her life were all lessons, lessons she have to remember and also all the people she met during that process were blessings in her life. Therefore, she puts all her careers and goals before love. An 18 year old girl told her little sister her story in her sister’s rebellion where she learnt all the things she shouldn’t have at such a small age. At the age of 18 she suddenly realizes she’s still innocent but not yet as innocent as her youngest sister. She agreed to keep on moving forward with her goals where she found out about how her life had been filled with such wonderful yet tragic memories ever since she was only 12.
