While I Wasn't Looking
This is Peter Langston's fourth collection of Australian contemporary poetry.
Poems At A Social Distance
Welcome to Poems At A Social Distance, a title that stems from a series of gigs of the same name, streamed live on social media during the first incline of everybody's favourite pandemic. In a poet's truth, its intention was to allude to the deliberate gap which my capacity for expressing ideas has always stood me on the other side of. I like that gap. It's both a comfort and buffer against social impertinences I would rather observe than participate in but there are times when bridges form and I must cross or be invaded. That's when I write.It has been nearly five since my last book. In that extended passage, the care of my dying father, both before and after the event, has dominated the pr...

Straightening My Tie

Lucas
George Lucas is an innovative and talented director, producer, and screenwriter whose prolific career spans decades. While he is best known as the creative mind behind the Star Wars franchise, Lucas first gained renown with his 1973 film American Graffiti, which received five Academy Award nominations, including Best Director and Best Picture.

The Mysteries of Monkey Island
That was the only target set for those 20 or so young, ambitious, hilarious and unkempt creators. Lucasfilm GamesTM, soon to be LucasArtsTM, would become a legendary developer, not least because it was within its walls that The Secret of Monkey IslandTM was created in 1990. The best-known of the Point & Click adventure games, Monkey Island earned its reputation from its world of colorful, delightfully anachronistic pirates, its trademark Monty Python-style humor, and, quite simply, the fact that it revolutionized a genre. This book is an homage to the adventures of Guybrush ThreepwoodTM, pirate extraordinaire. But it also aspires—quite ambitiously—to explain why Monkey Island marks a pivotal milestone in the way stories are told through video games. It’s also an opportunity to look back at the tumultuous history of LucasArts and Telltale Games, to discover some voodoo grog recipes, to learn interactive pirate reggae songs, to impress at a party of 40-year-old geeks, and to discover one-liners as sharp as a cutlass (great for duels and birthdays).
The Cherry on His Cigar
Winston D. Brownstone. Radically insane from birth, his extreme intelligence however, empowered him to fore-think his crimes from a very early age and over the years, murdered countless men and women. Brutal and bloody their deaths, and he enjoyed every moment, especially defiling the dead bodies in the most lurid, carnal manner imaginable, but, no longer confident in his superior mastery of eluding authorities, his intellect suddenly unable to curb the unfamiliar anxiety crushing his capability to reason, because now, the rabies virus completely infected his mind. THE CHERRY ON HIS CIGAR spans thirteen years, propelling the reader on a roller-coaster ride filled with passion, love, hate, fear and vengeance, journeying across America, down along the coast of Costa Rica, over to American Samoa and up through The Bering Strait.
