Firebird Sweet
Nicole, guitarist for Canto Sybilla and a senior at University of Southport, can't seem to settle down and concentrate on anything - school, work, the band. She's restless and can't figure out why. It could just be spring fever, couldn't it? Meanwhile Victor's Nana has him taking time off work to run strange errands all over town for the "good of the family", and it includes following some college co-ed. He yearns to go back to his engineering job, and just hopes he doesn't get arrested for stalking. Of course, the Others of Southport can't resist meddling in the affairs of their local humans. Welcome to Book II of Canto Sybilla, the series that follows the lives of bandmembers Holly, Nicole, Julie, Donna and some of their friends as they live and love in the city of Southport.
Who Will Sub For Miss Simmons?
All Mary, Jill, and Eddie wanted to do was to settle their differences --the old fashioned way. But then Miss Simmons came along...Once upon a time this story was a 2,000 word college paper that was just your basic kids' story. But then it grew up into the little chapter book you see today, complete with pictures that I drew. Myself.Don't expect professional level illustrations in this little book. Do expect to have fun reading the story and seeing how I envisioned it. And if you like, add your own pictures and story in the back.Take, for example, the monster slug pictured, whose profile page says it's three feet tall (liar), bright yellow, likes long slides in dark tunnels, and prefers sautéing fresh children with a dash of fennel and sliced mushrooms...
The Holly and the Ivan
The only thing Holly likes as much as being in a band is being in a relationship. She can't turn a cute guy down, and has the disastrous dating history to prove it. On the eve of her band's biggest performance, a Christmas festival raising funds for the homeless, Holly meets two intriguing men, but even she can't date both at the same time. So now the question is: which one? It takes some special holiday magic, a dash of music, and a little help from her friends to figure it out, but Holly's heart wins out in the end.

Previously published as an ebook through Drollerie Press, The Holly and the Ivan is now available as a paperback from Rachel V. Olivier through Lulu.com. It is Book I in the Canto Sybilla series.

Outline
#14 in the New York Times '100 Best Books of the 21st Century' The first in Rachel Cusk's landmark trilogy, shortlisted for the Folio Prize and the Goldsmith Prize and longlisted for the IMPAC Prize. 'A work of stunning beauty, deep insight and great originality.' Monica Ali, New York Times 'One of the most daringly original and entertaining pieces of fiction I've ever read.' Observer 'A perfect synthesis of form and content.' Deborah Levy Outline is a novel in ten conversations. Spare and lucid, it follows a novelist teaching a course in creative writing over an oppressively hot summer in Athens. She leads her student in storytelling exercises. She meets other writers for dinner. She goes swimming in the Ionian Sea with her seatmate from the place. The people she encounters speak volubly about themselves, their fantasies, anxieties, pet theories, regrets, and longings. And through these disclosures, a portrait of the narrator is drawn by contrast, a portrait of a woman learning to face great a great loss.
Olivier
In the 1930s he established himself as a wide-ranging Shakespearean actor. His marriage in 1940 to Vivien Leigh (his second wife) seemed to complete the image of the romantic star. From the mid-40s he excelled in directing himself in Shakespeare on film, such as his dramatically-shot Henry V (1944), with its timely excesses of patriotism. When the new wave of British drama began in the late 1950s, Olivier was immediately part of it. As an actor of such wide range, and a successful producer and director, Olivier was a natural choice to bring the National Theatre into existence in 1963. Together with his new wife Joan Plowright (they had married in 1961), he built up a brilliant company and repertoire at the Old Vic. Olivier became the first actor to be given a peerage.
