The Death of Us

A Guided Workbook to Write Your Memoir and Share Your Story

My Life, By Me

'A captivating story of love and adventure, thrumming with secrets' Lucy Steeds, author of The Artist 'Moves elegantly back and forwards in time, and across the world from Paris and London to the Antipodes . . . beautifully written' Sunday Times 'A compelling tale . . . blends historical fiction with high adventure and romance' Guardian 'Like a fine vintage of champagne, this novel is complex, layered, and delicious' Kate MacIntosh, author of The Champagne Letters Caroline examines a stolen map. And there she finds it, at the edge of the Western Hemisphere, a black mark at the 30th latitude smaller than a flea: Norfolk Island. Her Aunt thinks she's a fool for wanting to follow her father to the other side of the world. He is no longer the man who taught Caroline about philosophy, apothecary and dreamt of returning to the France of his childhood. He is a convicted murderer, mad, deported, condemned. But, when she understands that Caroline is determined, her Aunt has one piece of advice: she must leave her past behind and invent a new story. In 1839, Caroline lands in Van Dieman's Land, a young widow of means with a boy in her care. In this insular colony of exiles and opportunists, no-one talks too much about their past. Caroline leases a run-down cottage and abandoned vineyard and, on this island of extreme seasons and wild beauty, she embarks on a fearless enterprise to reclaim her father, create champagne, and rewrite her family's legacy. Travelling from Paris to Edinburgh, London, New York and to Tasmania, The Great Act of Love is an epic story of hope and self-invention.

A Great Act of Love

"A much-needed dose of comfort and positivity." —Shanna Tan, translator of Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop Tabby cat Fuuta has passed into the afterlife and will do anything to see his human again . . . if only he can not disrupt the balance of the universe. After a long life with a loving human family, tabby cat Fuuta has passed into the afterlife, but he is not as far from his owner, Michiru, as it seems. Slight openings bridge the divide between the lands of the living and the dead, and they can be traversed. Eager to see Michiru again, Fuuta interviews for a position at Café Pont, a café that exists in the liminal space between the two worlds, known for its unique message delivery service: Customers leave requests with the name of the person they wish to meet, and a messenger cat is assigned to arrange the "meeting." If Fuuta doesn’t maintain plausible deniability, he could cause panic amongst the living, or worse: He could upset the balance of the universe itself. It is a weighty task for an old tabby cat, but Fuuta is up for the challenge. After all, the job offers a special reward: the right to see Michiru. And he’ll do anything to reunite with his family.

Messenger Cat Café

An aspiring pop star crafts a fake relationship with a small-town boy to rehab her image, until her ex and her real feelings get in the way in this sweeping romance perfect for fans of Lynn Painter. Love Thompson went viral. Now she has it all—fifty million followers, brand deals, a Hollywood address, and the fast track to the music career she’s always dreamed of—until…she doesn’t. After Love takes the blame for her influencer boyfriend’s mistake, the fallout goes more viral than the video that rocketed her to fame. By the next morning, she’s already lost sponsorships, ten million followers, and her debut single. Love needs to rehab her image, and that means dating someone a little more homegrown. Enter Austin Grey. Austin is about as homegrown as it gets. His only followers are the regulars at his family’s struggling diner that he’s doing his best to save. But everything changes when he gets a DM from a star he never expected to cross paths with again. When Love walks back into Austin’s life, she thinks this is a purely online scheme with an expiration date. But as genuine feelings start to develop that keep them coming back to each other again and again, will either of them be willing to take a chance on something real?

Crux

FROM THE AUTHOR OF AS YOUNG AS THIS 'So wryly funny ... Roxy Dunn writes so smoothly about the limitations - and liberations - of adult love with such delicacy and honesty' CLAIRE DAVERLEY, author of Talking at Night 'A thoroughly amusing coming of age (in your thirties) novel written with wit, honesty and tenderness' CLAIRE POWELL, author of At the Table Independence seems to be drifting away from Misty. Just months ago, she was living with her fiancé and planning their life together. Now she's single, back in her childhood bedroom, on crutches from knee surgery, and relying on her mother to help her with the smallest of tasks. This isn't how thirty-two was meant to look. When Misty turns to dating apps, she's immediately intrigued by charismatic, handsome Christopher - so intrigued that she doesn't doesn't even notice the acronym 'ENM' on his profile. By the time she discovers that it stands for 'ethical non-monogamy' - and that he's in a long-term open relationship - she already feels such undeniable, dizzying chemistry that she decides to give things a go. And so Misty makes a pact with herself to date Christopher for the next six weeks while his partner is away. It's all part of her plan: she wants to learn to become less attached, and to prepare herself for her next 'real' relationship. But is what she wants really what she needs? 'So enjoyable ... The writing is just so good and moreish. I loved it' Catherine Airey, author of Confessions 'Roxy Dunn is oh so good on love ... Wants and Needs is witty, warm and seriously sexy' Chloë Ashby, author of Wet Paint

The Cortisol Reset Plan

"A woman must learn to take responsibility for her own dreams in this heartfelt novel inspired by Anne of Green Gables by New York Times bestselling author Virginia Kantra. Anne Gallagher believes in love-the kind of love that exists in fairy tales and romance novels and-most of all-in her favorite book of all time, Anne of Green Gables. Growing up on isolated Mackinac Island, Michigan, she imagined herself as Anne Shirley. There's the name, right? And her hair is red-well, reddish. And while Mackinac is no Prince Edward Island, it does have a tiny island school and horse-drawn carriages on a main street lined with Victorian houses. She dreams of becoming a teacher and a writer, just like her fictional role model. Everything is falling into place for Anne, who is getting ready to graduate from Northwestern University and has already lined up a job at a pricey private school north of Chicago. She's also dating her very own Gilbert Blythe-a selfless medical resident named Chris, whose rich family used to vacation on Mackinac in the summers. But then Anne's beloved father dies from a heart attack while working on a roof, and a dispute with her new principal leads to a leave of absence. Now she must return home to Mackinac, which means confronting all the strained relationships she left behind. With nothing but time back on the island known for its beauty and charm, Anne has a chance to reconsider her decisions and decide for herself what she wants out of life.."-- Provided by publisher.

El Amigo Manso

The big-hearted, bestselling South Korean memoir co-written by two best friends flouting gender norms and societal expectations with their decision to grow old together under one roof. When most of their peers were moving in with romantic partners and having children, Kim Hana and Hwang Sunwoo chose independence—savoring solitude, quiet mornings, and the unmitigated freedom of living alone. But in their forties, something shifted, and they were met with a new, unexpected loneliness. Refusing to settle for the outdated choice between marriage or isolation, Hana and Sunwoo made a radical decision: to buy a home and live together—not as lovers, not as roommates, but as chosen family.Now a bustling household of two women and four cats, Hana and Sunwoo still value solitude, but can do so while sharing a life and its meaning with someone else. Together they navigate the challenges and comforts of cohabiting in midlife, the growing pains of interdependence and the unexpected rewards of compromise when you’ve grown set in your ways. From sick days to career wins to aging parents and beach-side retirement plans, they are redefining domestic bliss on their own terms, where love, partnership, and home are defined not by tradition, but by choice.With warmth, wit, and sharp social insight, Hana and Sunwoo share their blueprint for building a life outside the scripts of marriage and society’s expectations for women. Two Women Living Together is a quiet revolution—a celebration of female friendship, community, and the many forms that love and family can take.
