An explosion sends roughneck Otto Daniel’s body into icy Prudhoe Bay where he has an unsettling vision. After weeks of recovery in the burn unit of Fairbanks Regional Hospital, he heads northwest and takes a job in a small town in the wilds of Alaska. When tragedy strikes, Otto has that same eerie vision for the second time in his life. Alone again, Otto leaves Alaska for good and wanders the northwest coast of the United States trying to find answers to unknown questions. He ends up working for the exotic Hazel J. Himmel, owner of Jinxie’s Tattoo Karma.

Dani is notoriously distracted by her sexual conquests. At least, that’s what her best friend, Veronica, claims. A successful food writer, Veronica is annoyed by Dani’s lack of follow-through, her one-night stands, and her inability to put down the torch for her closeted high school girlfriend, Michelle. So, she makes a bet with Dani, and when Dani loses, the penalty is she must go to Venice to write. Once there, Dani is haunted both by her past and by thoughts of the elusive Sara, who teaches her about the dark history of the Venetian Jewish ghetto even as she piques Dani’s amorous interest.

Ink and Chaos is a collection of poems written by Taila Cantrell during her late teens and early twenties. With themes of pain, hope, and magic dive into the vulnerable and emotional side of this up and coming fantasy author.

Ink Formations is an exploration into thought and emotion.

In this bilingual poetry collection, Roberto Germán, shares writing across 20 years of his life. The poems tell stories of love, relationships, race, identity, and everyday living. These subjects divide the book into three parts. The poetic forms include free verse, rhyme, haiku and more, all relatable and real with vivid detail. As he explores what it's like to be a young man growing into his identity, the audiences are invited into a rarely explored point of view with this level of imagery and sensorial writing.

Melissa Trujillo knows suffering. She's tasted it, touched it, injected it. Sobriety is a gift, but it isn't enough to wash away her secrets. Kieran O'Connell knows sacrifice. He's owned it, held it between his fingers, and felt it in his knees. Words are his freedom, and they've begun to fade. Two different worlds. One moment, and the Earth shifts - granting them a path. His eyes meet hers. Her hand fits his. Kieran finds his muse. Melissa finds her new addiction.
