By sharing these stories, the author challenges everyone to think about one question: "What would you attempt to do if you knew you couldn't fail?".…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Welcome to the Sisters in Crime/Los Angeles Chapter short story anthology, Avenging Angelenos. It has been my honor to serve as president of the chapter these past few years, and I am so proud of the people and the work that went into making this specific anthology happen. The biennial anthology is one of my favorite benefits that we offer to our chapter members. Only chapter members can submit. For our new writers, it's an opportunity to get that all-important first credit. For many of our established writers, it's a chance to shake the stuffing out and try something different. For others, writing the short story is what they do and it's a chance to celebrate that. Our stories are chosen blind, so that even the newest writer will not get lost. It's a complicated process and a lot of work for our committee to make sure that the stories get to our editors in a timely fashion. Our committee also must find those editors, which this year was no simple feat. Let's be real, the pandemic had so many of us freaking out that the thought of taking something on like this was just too much. Pandemic or not, people need to meet, to connect, to find some measure of peace in the middle of chaos, and that's what a good short story can do. That's also what we try to do as Sisters in Crime. Our national organization is about inclusion and we do our best, in our own stumbling, faulty way, to comply. Our job is to offer support for our members and make sure that all voices are heard. Which is another reason why this anthology is so important to me. It's another platform, another opportunity to let our members' voices be heard. Come hear what we have to say, then come join us and let us hear your story. Anne Louise Bannon President, Sisters in Crime/Los Angeles Marie Stein Henry Forman Julia Bricklin Sisters in Crime/Los Angeles Anthology Committee With an introduction by Frankie Y. Bailey and eleven original stories by Avril Adams, Paula Bernstein, Hal Bodner, Jenny Carless, LH Dillman, Gay Toltl Kinman, Melinda Loomis, Kathy Norris, Peggy Rothschild, Meredith Taylor, and Laurel Wetzork.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Even Steve Jobs didn't know what he had on his hands when he announced the original iPhone as a combination of a mere "three revolutionary products"- an iPod, a cell phone, and a keyboard-less handheld computer. Once Apple introduced the App Store and opened it up to outside developers, however, the iPhone became capable of serving a rapidly growing number of functions- now more than 200,000 and counting. But the iPhone has implications far beyond the phone or gadget market. In fact, it's opening the way to what Brian Chen calls the "always-on" future, where we are all constantly connected to a global Internet via flexible, incredibly capable gadgets that allow us to do anything, anytime, from anywhere. This has far-reaching implications- both positive and negative- throughout all areas of our lives, opening the door for incredible personal and societal advances while potentially sacrificing both privacy and creative freedom in the process. Always On is the first book to look at the surprising and expansive significance of Apple's incredibly powerful vertical business model, and the future it portends.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Vesper is a scientific-minded young woman living in the kingdom of Malland. When she finds a detached talking penis in the woods, her sheltered life with its wistful fantasies of change explodes into chaos as the penis chases her home, wrecks her sister's engagement party, and causes a scandal so costly that it results in Vesper's forced engagement to a wart-faced widower who agrees to pay her family's debt. Vesper flees her engagement, hoping for a reward when she returns the penis to his owner-the royal prince, no less. But she discovers that the penis isn't the only talking body part flying around the kingdom. People everywhere are falling victim to a magical disease that causes body parts to fall off and animate, and Vesper finds herself fighting an evil plot to create an army of body parts and a society of denial and control, one that deals with all problems by severing them. Uplifting, humorous, and full of wisdom, Dysmorphic Kingdom is high fantasy with a philosophical bouquet, raising questions about conquering both our insecurities with ourselves and our differences with others, all in a polarity-ridden world. Edgy, original. It's inventive, funny, and sly. The characters come alive, and you can't help but lose yourself in this world. Great writing makes you think of the world in a different way-and Chen does exactly that. Ori Brafman, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Chaos Imperative and Sway Warning: addictive. Side effects may include e-stalking Colleen Chen to locate more of her writing, sitting on a sunlit patio for several hours to devour a book that's outside of the genres you normally read or compulsively visiting a surprising world in which none of the tedious old rules apply.
