FOUR STAR FUNERALS packs the emotional wallop of Titanic, darkened with a dash of Tales From the Crypt. This ten-author anthology about death and its aftershocks will sear your soul, make you laugh … and ultimately help you heal, if you're haunted by a death that has upended your emotions in ways you never expected.  A Collection of Memoir, Poetry, and Short Fiction  For anyone whose life has been torn apart by death—the death of someone you loved, the death of someone with whom you had unfinished business, or a near brush with your own demise—this book will help you settle your emotions, heal the wounds, and get on with living. The writing is first-rate. The ten authors of this collection have been widely published in various genres and formats: mainstream books, magazines, anthologies; fiction, nonfiction, historical and contemporary; from children’s literature to scholarly work. There’s nothing else quite like it: 47,000 words of death-inspired passion, mostly memoir and essays but with touches of poetry and fiction. Read a little each night or morning, and feel your soul grow easy.  “A good read … I was impressed by the quality of writing from so many different authors. Each story was unique, but each was extremely well written. The subject of death was handled with discretion, punctuated now and then with humor, making it a ‘fun’ read. I highly recommend it.” —Marvin S. Mayer

The New Television Handbook (Media Practice)

The New Television Handbook provides an exploration of the theory and practice of television at a time when the medium is undergoing radical changes. The book looks at television from the perspective of someone new to the industry, and explores the place of the medium within a constantly changing digital landscape. This title discusses key skills involved in television production, including: producing, production management, directing, camera, sound, editing and visual effects. Each of these activities is placed within a wider context as it traces the production process from commissioning to post-production. The book outlines the broad political and economic context of the television industry. It gives an account of television genres, in particular narrative, factual programmes and news, and it considers the academic discipline of media studies and the ways in which theorists have analysed and tried to understand the medium. It points to the interplay of theory and practice as it draws on the history of the medium and observes the ways in which the past continues to influence and invigorate the present. The New Television Handbook includes:  contributions from practitioners ranging from established producers to new entrants; a comprehensive list of key texts and television programmes; a revised glossary of specialist terms; a section on training and ways of getting into the industry. By combining theory, real-world advice and a detailed overview of the industry and its history, The New Television Handbook is an ideal guide for students of media and television studies and young professionals entering the television industry.

How do we live the powerful, purposeful and fruitful lives God intended? Jesus promised that the Father would send Holy Spirit to be our: helper, encourager, guide, and comforter. And He did at Pentecost.Now what? We can't afford to miss God's precious gift. We need Him! We can't fulfill His plan without Him!From cover to cover I've combined the richness of biblical Pentecost the availabilty of life-giving experiences for the modern believer. I've used practical, easy to understand, down-to-earth stories to make truths about Holy Spirit easy to grasp for beginners.

For as long as I can remember I have loved God...but I wasn't satisfied. I felt like something was missing in my life. I discovered that the something was really someone.When I was twelve years old I was filled with Precious Holy Spirit and began a life long journey of knowing and experiencing the Word of God and the Presence of God in a very intimate way in my life. I wrote this book because I want to help people know Him and love Him like never before. The first release of this book was entitled "Pentecost Lost." That title didn't adequately describe the book, so we renamed it Precious Holy Spirit. It's Time to Discover Who Holy Spirit isHonestly, I understand the confusion. I wasn't raised in a church that taught on the infilling of the Holy Spirit. I realize that even the Bible calls it a mystery. And God seems to love hiding things. But realize, God hides this not from us, but for us! Like He hides gold in the ground to be dug out. That's why I wrote the book "Precious Holy Spirit", I want to help you or the people in your church discover or maybe rediscover Who Holy Spirit is and the benefits that come with being Spirit filled. Whether you are a new believer or you've been filled with the Holy Spirit for many years, your walk with God will be strengthened.I explain some of the important benefits of Spirit-filled living:Holy Spirit enables you to obey and follow God's laws and instructions.Holy Spirit helps you pray more effectively.Holy Spirit helps you to love more deeply. Holy Spirit anointing enables believers to do the works of Jesus.Holy Spirit empowers believers to be His effective witnesses. (Acts 1:8)He comes with the assignment to reveal Jesus and super-size your faith with a blazing passion that radiates the love of Christ to the lost.
