Myers L: The Heart and Craft of Writing
a Healing Memoir

The Heart and Craft of Writing a Healing Memoir

Why do some speakers get booked again and again, while most struggle to land even one paid gig? What makes one speaker the industry go-to, while everyone else is overlooked, no matter how good they are on stage? Why do some speakers effortlessly attract repeat bookings, referrals and high fees, while others don't? Can you really be more in demand, more respected, and more booked without being famous or a celebrity? The answer is YES! This book reveals what the top 1% most-booked speakers do differently -- and how you can do it too. In The Bookability Formula, former international speaker bureau owner, Maria Franzoni sets out to answer the question: does Richard Koch's 80/20 Principle apply to speakers too? She analysed years of speaker bureau data and what she found was striking: just 1% of her roster generated 80% of bookings and over half the revenue. Determined to uncover what set the 1% apart, Maria developed the Bookability Formula -- a clear, proven framework for any speaker who wants to become commercially and consistently bookable. Packed with insider insights, real examples and tools you can use straight away, this is the book for speakers who want to stop guessing and start getting booked.

What if reading poetry could change you--not just what you think, but how you move through the world?For forty years, Thomas Gardner led students through this transformative act--not analyzing poems from a distance but reperforming them from the inside. Walking together through Elizabeth Bishop's broken beaches, Robert Frost's snowy woods, and Emily Dickinson's rooms of possibility, they discovered that getting lost is how we are found. That acknowledging fragility opens eyes to wonder. That poems, like parables, ask us not to produce definitive explanations but to keep up.A Place of Encounter is Gardner's luminous record of this work. Through fifty-one short lyric essays moving between memory, close reading, and theological reflection, he opens up the inner drama of poems as spiritual exercises--spaces where, as Dickinson puts it, our narrow hands are forced wide to gather paradise. With the grace and precision of the poems he loves, Gardner shows how deep reading grooves interior change.Here is the classroom as temple: bodies leaning forward, voices rising together, readers discovering they're no longer alone. Here is teaching from a position of faith that speaks across every spiritual commitment. Here is poetry as a place of encounter.

On Poetry, Teaching, and Faith

A Place of Encounter

Live and Write Her Journey

Fairy Tale Heroine

24th Poet Laureate of the United States Ada Limón inspires us to see poetry as much more than just words—as a powerful force for healing, a call to action, and a vibrant celebration of humanity’s many voices. Ada Limón—celebrated poet laureate and 2023 MacArthur fellow—takes us on an inspiring journey into a world where poetry is both a soothing balm for the soul and a spark for transformation. With her blend of accessible yet profound prose, Limón delivers a powerful message: poetry has the ability to heal, connect, and remind us of our shared humanity. Limón’s mission to make poetry approachable shines brightly in this slim but impactful book. Recognized as a 2024 Time magazine Woman of the Year for her commitment to bringing poetry into everyday lives, Limón passionately argues that poetry is essential to understanding ourselves—our tenderness, courage, imperfections, and our deep, unshakable worthiness of love. Drawing from her own experiences as the 24th US poet laureate, Limón shares how poetry connects us not only to each other but to the natural world. This theme is at the heart of her project You Are Here, which celebrates the beauty of our environment and our place in it. Her prose, like her poetry, feels like an open invitation—welcoming readers of all backgrounds to explore the richness of human experience through verse. Fans of Robin Wall Kimmerer, Matthew Zapruder, or Jesmyn Ward will find a kindred spirit in Against Breaking—which offers a refuge, a reminder of the resilience and beauty found within us and all around us. As Limón writes with heartfelt clarity, “If you need to remember what makes us human, tender, brave, flawed, and worthy of love, you need poetry.”

This luminous translation offers inspiration to all people who seek to know and express their inner truth. This edition features a new foreword by Kent Nerburn, author of Small Graces and Letters to My Son.

Letters to a Young Poet

Writing as Lemony Snicket, Daniel Handler has led several generations of young readers into that special and curious space of being hopelessly lost, and joyfully finding yourself, in the essential strangeness of literature. The wondrous and perilous journey of the Baudelaire orphans sprung from the author's own path, from his childhood discovery of Baudelaire's poetry through the countless peculiarities of his pursuit of a literary life-abject failure and startling success, breakthrough and breakdown, concordance and controversy-lit along the way by the books and culture he loved best. 
 
At once a personal memoir and a literary exploration, a how-to book and a critical inquiry, a sequence of stories and a series of events, And Then? And Then? What Else? is a book not just for anyone curious about the creator of Lemony Snicket, but for anyone who loved books when they were a child, and still loves them now.

And Then? and Then? What Else?
