When life crumbles, don’t quit—bake a better batch! What if every failure was just the preheat before your greatest comeback? In Bake It Til You Make It, powerhouse entrepreneur Molly Blakeley serves up a wildly inspiring, laugh-out-loud, no-filter story about turning life’s messiest moments into the ultimate recipe for success: resilience, grit, and a dash of faith. Molly’s journey is anything but cookie-cutter. From owning an Alaskan lodge and running restaurants to managing flower shops, roller derby, and launching dress boutiques—her twenties and thirties were a whirlwind of big dreams, epic crashes, and fierce comebacks. Every venture—whether it soared or sank—taught her one thing: you can’t lose if you never stop rising. Then came the cookies. One late night after a business deal gone wrong. Molly was down to her last $150 in a rural Alaska town. Molly’s spark turned into a full-blown flavor revolution. Bourbon. Bacon. Amaretto cherries. Molly Bz cookies exploded from her kitchen to QVC, Costco, Walmart, and Target—with just pure hustle, heart, and holy determination. In this bold, hilarious, and brutally honest book, Molly shows you how to turn your setbacks into setups for your biggest wins. You’ll learn how to: <ul> <li>Flip rejection into rocket fuel</li> <li>Use chaos as your creativity gym</li> <li>Turn wild ideas into can’t-resist brands</li> <li>Keep the faith when all you’ve got left is grit</li> </ul> Part business playbook, part comeback story, and 100% inspiration, Bake It Til You Make It is your reminder that the sweetest victories rise from the messiest beginnings. So grab your apron (and your dreams), because it’s time to bake something amazing—starting with you.

The Story of a Risk-Taking Cookie Queen

Bake It 'Til You Make It

Looking at Women, Looking at War

'An instant classic' NIGELLA LAWSON 'Sweeping, intimate, defiant and brimming with love' LOUISE KENNEDY 'It is the roots that keep the trees from falling during a storm. Olia Hercules tells us that the same is true for people and nations' SERHII PLOKHY I am writing this story without knowing its end: it begins long before I was born and will continue long after I die. I am writing this story to help myself heal and to make you understand. Strong Roots is the story of a century in Ukraine told through four generations of one extraordinary family. It takes us from years of Russification, to Olia's grandmother's deportation to snowy wastelands under Stalin, to her Aunt Zhenia's school protest, to her own parents' flight from Ukraine when their town was occupied in 2022. This is an ode to the land, to ideas of home and belonging, and to family stories and recipes passed down the generations - the tang of sour cherries, the best way to make borsch. It is an account of resilience in the hardest of circumstances. Strong Roots brims with hope and grief. It lays bare the compromises and betrayals of generations struggling and surviving through war, peace, invasion and exile. It is an uplifting reminder of how much the human spirit can endure when born from a land rich with strong roots.

Strong Roots

Chasing Hollywood is not just a marketing book. It is a memoir wrapped in the cultural phenomenon of films that have shaped our lives.Learn timeless lessons about the remarkable hard work and genius artistry that went into the creation and promotion of movies we love. Films that served as must-see moments for the last two generations. The pop-culture infiltrators that have marked our years and shaped our shared memories, giving us the stars, catch-phrases and bold ideas that people still talk about--whether we're growing up, growing old, looking inward, or coming out.Sometimes audiences don't know what they want, simply because they haven't seen it before--in part because of the massive blockades created by corporate ownership and mainstream media saturation from big-dollar marketing campaigns, constructed by the powers that be in order to keep outsiders and little guys down and out.These powers still exist in the film world, and the social media world, and the book world, too, just as they exist in almost every industry today, when even the most well-funded marketing departments struggle to break through the unstoppable wall of noise created by the overflow of information and content that floods consumers' feeds and screens every second of every day.But guess what?Blockades are still breakable, and even the tallest walls are surmountable. We just need to take an indie-film approach to breaking through.

A Marketing Chief’s Lessons on Breaking Through

Chasing Hollywood

Whatever happened to the weirdos? The rock'n'roll rebels? The children of The Revolution who not so much raged against The Man as barely acknowledged the concept of authority? Like vividly plumed birds of paradise whose habitat is gone, they're practically extinct. In their place? The communal voice of the on-trend musical activist, forever saying and doing The Right Thing. The opposite, in fact, of what we used to know as the free-wheelin' rock 'n' roll nutter... Sylvia Patterson remembers them. The freaks, geeks and oddballs who picked up microphones and instruments not to become rich or famous but because they were too mad (or unemployable) to do anything else. The true radicals and loose cannon lunatics who pandered to zero PC tropes, and even less societal rules, determined to live their&nbsp;worst&nbsp;lives. I'm Not With The Man&nbsp;is the freaky flipside to her award-winning memoir&nbsp;I'm Not With The Band, celebrating the era of 'the rock 'n' roll nutter' through her own encounters with some of music's most uncompromising mavericks. From a cursing Adam Ant to a formidable Chrissie Hynde, from a carousing Liam Gallagher to a coruscating Sinead O'Connor, from a comedy Wu Tang Clan to an unrepentant Marianne Faithfull, from a fragile Evan Dando to a furious Thom Yorke... and many, many more. Hilarious, revealing and poignant,&nbsp;I'm Not With The Man&nbsp;is a farewell fanfare to the heroically unhinged, who lived on the edge of not only society but their own precarious sanity. Deliberately. We will not see their like again.

From the Costa-shortlisted author of I'm Not with the Band, a collection of interviews with the weird and wonderful musicians who defined an iconic era

I'm Not With The Man

Roll the Calls¿is as ferociously powerful as the iconic figure at its centre, Ari Emanuel - the inspiration for¿Entourage's Ari Gold, and one of the most legendary powerbrokers of all time - a man who made rage and chaos into the instruments of his success.Expertly written with Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and biographer J. R. Moehringer,¿Roll the Calls¿takes us on a blistering and intimate journey into every battle Ari Emanuel has fought, with raw emotion and unrelenting profanity: a tremendous reading experience and the must-read book of the year.Ari Emanuel is one of the most influential people in the world, but he's also something of a mystery. Part of the reason is Emanuel's job description. As a Hollywood super-agent, he's paid to speak for his clients, not himself.But no more. Now, for the first time, the agent, the mogul, the iconic power broker speaks for himself, about himself, and about the game of life, often at the top of his lungs. In¿Roll the Calls,¿a fiery, furious memoir, Emanuel gives an insider's account of every major success and setback, every triumphant merger and nasty breakup, every hard-won lesson and crushing mistake.In excruciating, comical detail, he recounts the trajectory of his brilliant career, from clerking in the mailroom of CAA to striking out on his own, launching a new firm with three other agents and no money, eventually signing some of the most glittering names in show business, including Larry David, Mark Wahlberg, Martin Scorsese and Oprah Winfrey. Along the way, Emanuel was also raising four kids, coping with a failing marriage and fighting to find love again.Told in taut, telegraphic prose, with uncommon humility and ribald humour,¿Roll the Calls¿shatters the mould of stodgy CEO memoirs. It's a story about success and failure, creativity and persistence, and the priceless value of simply never giving up -a master class in blocking out the naysayers and pushing forward through every bitter defeat.

Story Telling

Ein emotionales und wichtiges BuchConny Böttger widmet ihr Leben der Tierrettung. Ihr Engagement nahm seine Anfänge, als ihr Großvater seinen Bauernhof schließen und seine letzte Kuh zum Schlachthof bringen wollte. Diese letzte Kuh markiert den Beginn einer sehr schönen und fast unglaublichen Geschichte.Neben ihrem Vollzeitberuf hat Conny mit ihren Unterstützer:innen in den letzten Jahren über 100 Rinder auf das Gut im Erzgebirge geholt, auf dem sie die Tiere unterstellen darf. Sie ist bei jeder Rettungsaktion persönlich dabei, kennt jede Kuh einzeln und weiß um ihre Gefühle und Bedürfnisse. Für Conny sind die Tiere nicht bloß Kühe, sie sind Lebewesen, deren Bedürfnisse über die Maßen schützenswert sind. Und das geht ins Herz.

Kreativität ist ein hochwirksamer Stoff, aber genauso eine leicht verderbliche WareJean-Remy von Matt ist der kreative Kopf von Deutschland bekanntester Werbeagentur Jung von Matt. Als Werber und Texter war er immer gefordert zu verdichten. Jetzt erzählt er in originellen und erhellenden Anekdoten, wo und wie er Kreativität gelebt und erlebt hat. Und das verpackt in eine spektakuläre Marketingidee: Es wird das erste Buch, das von Anfang bis Ende immer schlechter wird – mit Vorsatz. Dafür ließ der Autor jedes einzelne Kapitel von einer Jury bewerten und ordnete die Texte entsprechend. Der Vorteil: Wo immer man mit Lesen aufhört, hat man das Beste auf keinen Fall verpasst. Aber vielleicht ist ja selbst die letzte Anekdote noch lesenswert?Jean-Remy von Matt singt das Loblied der Kreativität: ein Rohstoff, so kostbar wie verderblich. Das Schießpulver des Kommunikationszeitalters, die Quelle aller Innovation, der Hebel allen Wachstums. Eine unsichtbare Kraft, die in so vielen Lebensbereichen den entscheidenden Unterschied bedeuten kann – wenn Bedenkenträgerei sie nicht ausbremst.&nbsp; Dieses Buch wird von Matts letztes sein – ein unterhaltsames Vermächtnis – am Ende.Was für ein genialer Wurf ! So klug, so unterhaltsam, so philosophisch, so wahr!
