The Itofit is a fantasy tale about three curious children who, after getting lost in the woods, meet a creature named It from the land of It. The Itofit is also lost. He cannot remember much from the past, and is trying to find his way back home. It is a perfect day for an adventure, so the children decide to help the Itofit, and together they all embark on a magical journey through woods, and swamps, and the amazing land of It. En route, they encounter strange opinionated and kooky characters, some of whom are quite horrific. Beside the Itofit and the children, are buoyant Baloomerangs who float on air, and curious Snigglesnorfs who sniggle - not to mention a dreadful district inquisitor, and the Durjge Dorque, both riding evil vegetable monsters. These devious people tangle with the children, leading them off into a series of adventures and misadventures.

This book is based upon Christ's words and tells you how you can know for sure that you are saved and will spend eternity in heaven. There are many false plans of salvation being taught by the great preachers of today which will not save you or prevent you from standing before Christ at the Great White Throne Judgement. When one stands before Christ at this judgement, they will be cast into the lake of fire for all eternity. Michael Bowen holds a Master's degree in English (Technical and Professional Communication) from East Carolina University. He is currently teaching college-level English composition at a community college and operates an IBM AS400 computer at a local hospital. He enjoys astronomy, martial arts, and reading.

Poetry. African & African American Studies. Women's Studies. Art. "HUMAN ACHIEVEMENTS is full of friends, aching, bleeding, feeling fine, the city, and listening. You know the right song can change everything, and can be a conduit for energy or rage? 'I look the day right in the eye and tell it to go fuck itself.' The right song can also turn you into a ghost." -- Amy Lawless "I feel so happy about this book of poetry by Lauren Hunter, 'this unremarkable bloom' whose key words are 'human' and 'achievement.' At a time when human is being cast as 'without anything,' Hunter's poems remind us that efforts toward beauty, toward imperfect and beautiful thinking, is to be in an actual 'human' place, and that the reason one goes there is in order to love. HUMAN ACHIEVEMENTS and the poetry writing it will inspire in me and others will be a barricade against the rapid loss of the human I crave, the human that I've taken pleasure in, a human that, without the defense of poets like Lauren Hunter, is ever, in every nanosecond, accelerating toward extinction." --Rachel Levitsky

An epistolary novel set on a fictional island off the South Carolina coastline, 'Ella Minnow Pea' brings readers to the hometown of Nevin Nollop, inventor of the pangram 'The Quick Brown Fox Jumps Over the Lazy Dog'. Deified for his achievement in life, Nevin has been honored in death with a monument featuring his famous phrase. One day, however, the letter 'Z' falls from the monument, and some of the islanders interpret the missing tile as a message from beyond the grave. The letter 'Z' is banned from use. On an island where the residents pride them-selves on their love of language, this is seen as a tragedy. They are still reeling from the shock when another tile falls. And then another... In his charming debut, first published in 2001, Mark Dunn took readers on a journey through the eyes of Ella Minnow Pea, a young woman forced to create another clever turn of phrase in order to save the islanders’ beloved language.

Welcome to Crystal Wing Academy, where the magical Elite reign... and Outlings are an endangered species. Magic doesn't exist in the human world. As far as I know. But when I fling a fireball at a bully, my horrified Mom dumps me at Crystal Wing Academy, a place straight out of my favorite fantasy books. They tell me I'm an Outling, a wizard born from non-magical parents. Mom's human. Dad? I don't exactly know who he is.... One thing I do know is I'm not an Elite--descendants of the original six families who split from the Fae ages ago. At seventeen, their children and despised Outlings like me attend the Academy to learn to control our power. I'm barely on campus when I'm targeted by a mean girl. Figures. Thankfully, the Academy's not all bad. My pixie roommate's awesome. I score a coveted moonstone during Stone Selection. And let's not forget Donovan, a cute guy who seems to like me, not the mean Elite girl who's determined to win him. Except something's luring students into the forest and draining their power, leaving only shriveled husks behind. The Headmistress warns me not to investigate, but the killer's after my friends. Big mistake there. My magical skills may be untrained and wild, but if a power-sucking vamp thinks he can harm people I care about, he's about to discover I'm a wizard unlike any other.
