Razz James should have been the toast of Manhattan society. At 28, with an Ivy League pedigree, a prominent family name, and inherent charm, he was poised for flight. But 6 years after his twin brother's death, Razz is trapped in a black hole of grief. His days are a blur of gin, video games, and denial, while his 2 lifelong best friends, Hatcher Boudreaux, a shining star at an elite hedge fund, and Archie Stonebridge, a cybersecurity expert, quietly brace for the moment Razz doesn't come back from the brink. Then, Hatcher receives a cryptic invitation…an offer to join Scepter & Scythe, an exclusive secret society. The initiation challenge is a task so daring few would ever attempt it: steal a memento from Apollo Peck, Hatcher's infamous billionaire boss. Peck's residence, a fantastical mansion perched atop New York City's poshest building, is impenetrable. Fearful of losing his job, Hatcher refuses the assignment, but Razz, intrigued and desperate for a distraction, volunteers. Razz thinks he's executed the perfect crime...then someone turns up dead. What started as a lark quickly spirals into a far more devious and deadly plot with Razz in the crosshairs. In a world where power buys innocence, and the truth is subjective, Razz must unmask the mastermind before he becomes the next pawn sacrificed on the board.

A memoir of a marriage deeply rooted in love, faith, and literary art, featuring excerpts from Pulitzer Prize winner Oscar Hijuelos’ final, unpublished novel, Blue Antiquity
In A Writing Marriage (Regalo Press; hardcover, May 12, 2026, $30.00), Lori Carlson-Hijuelos reflects on the wonder of her union with Oscar, her soulmate. To write their love story, Lori chose a sacred place: the library of a nineteenth-century cathedral in her upstate New York hometown. True to their partnership in life, she created a work of collaboration, with Oscar’s voice, views, and presence shining through in excerpts from his unpublished fiction opus, Blue Antiquity, which he was working on at the time of his death. A unique blend of memoir and fiction, A Writing Marriage illuminates Lori’s life with Oscar, whom she met in 1981, nearly a decade before he became the first Latino author to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, and who she wed in December 1998. In an interview, she can talk about:  The power of writing to create and remake worlds and reveal the writer - while reading her husband’s final, unpublished novel, Lori was struck by how the protagonist—an academic with a passion for archaeology and the son of Cuban immigrants—mirrors Oscar. In excerpts from Blue Antiquity, she captures Oscar’s zest for life, fascination with ancient civilizations, and spiritual development.The hallmarks of a foundational marriage, the kind devoted to serving, nourishing, and empowering each other, and why cositas, the “little things” that mark the way spouses treat each other, matter—whether it’s celebrating birthdays or holding hands.How writing has helped her as she deals with the profound grief and reality of widowhood - As Lori reflects, the word most used to explain what should happen to someone after the death of a spouse is healing. She prefers the verb reconstructing. “Reconstruction is what I am encountering.”

The long-awaited memoir from country music legend, Clint Black-a raw, intimate, and unflinching story that traces his rise from struggling songwriter to chart-topping superstar and enduring music legend.Over twenty million records sold. Twenty-two number one career singles. 31 top ten singles. Nearly two dozen gold and platinum awards. Countless CMA and ACM awards. A Grammy Award. A star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. When it comes to modern music, few artists have had a bigger or more lasting impact than Clint Black. Since bursting onto the country music scene in 1989 with Killin' Time-the triple-platinum debut that delivered five consecutive number one singles-Black has built a genre-defining career spanning nearly four decades. Having written the soundtrack of a generation, Clint now puts pen to paper to write, for the first time, the story of the man behind the music.In his long-awaited memoir, Black shares the unfiltered, extraordinary account of his journey from a kid with a dream on the outskirts of Houston to a country music legend. From his near-death experiences as a young boy, to his decision to drop out of high school to pursue music, to countless years struggling as an unknown young artist, playing at any nightclub or hotel bar that would have him, Black's path to success had more twists than the Texas two-step.Once fame hit and the stakes got higher, Black didn't let the pressure of big crowds, big money, or big labels steer him off course. By writing from the heart and sticking to his guns, he built a legacy on his own terms. These values proved to be Black's north star navigating superstardom, including a difficult lawsuit against his ex-manager, Bill Ham; subsequently founding his own record label; recording with heroes such as Jimmy Buffett, Merle Haggard, and Eric Idle; his whirlwind romance and everlasting marriage with actress Lisa Hartman Black; and most recently, a critical issue with a cervical spine injury, which threatened the very thing that made him a star: his voice.With vivid, deeply personal stories-all told with Black's signature charm-he recounts how his steadfast dedication to his beliefs and his passion for music led him to success after success, and through storm after storm. For longtime fans and newcomers alike, Killin' Time is a revelatory and rare glimpse of the iconic life and career of a once in a generation talent.

I’m always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as…   No matter how much we prepare for a future event we always face a storm overtaken but doom gloom and fear of failure why?  Plus…why are farting so much in the morning?   I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later.  When a subject arrives, I dig in.  It’s still keeping a journal!  By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.  This is the Daily Mess…

When I first entered this forest in 1992 the lower section of the 95 foot drop in the hill was blessed with ample amounts of wild blueberries. My daughter chose to make this is favorite reading place. Today, they're all gone. But not the memories planted inside our growing forever.

As a way of connecting with his ailing father, international bestselling author and prominent journalist Aldo Cazzullo picks up the Bible and rediscovers an illuminating book that "speaks of us," and whose legacy of storytelling formed our modern world. In the internet age, our sense of historical perspective is often eclipsed by a breathless flood of information and the constant news feed.  THE GOD OF OUR FATHERS: The Great Stories of the Bible by Aldo Cazzullo helps readers reestablish their connection with the past by bridging ancient history and the present, helping reframe our modern world. 
Stories addressing themes like refuge, conflict, and justice are directly applicable to current crises and provide a framework for navigating life’s challenges including forgiveness, parenting and career decisions.
Until a few generations ago, people of the Western world believed they lived under the watchful eye of God. His existence was as certain as the rising sun, and quoting passages and verse from the Bible was common. But that familiarity with the Bible is no longer a mainstay of the contemporary world. 
This book invites readers of all kinds to engage with the Bible as a living document that continues to pose fundamental questions about existence. It is an invitation to see these stories not as historical relics, but as a vital part of our ongoing cultural dialogue, Framed by a deeply personal narrative where Aldo Cazzullo revisits the sacred text by his dying father’s bedside. 
As an author, Aldo Cazzullo has made a career of bridging the past and the present, helping reframe our modern world  He has been reporting on major Italian and international events for thirty-five years for major newspapers including Corriere della Sera, where he serves as deputy editor and head of the Lettere page.
