    "A captivating ode to the constant work of becoming—and understanding—oneself." PUBLISHERS WEEKLY 
    PANSY is a non-linear, episodic story that combines poetry, cultural criticism, and essays. It follows Black transmasc, southern writer Jasper as they fumble through an awkward Memphis upbringing in the 90s and early aughts, an insufferable Nashville PWI, and a fierce NYC queer awakening, all with a poignant throughline on Black exceptionalism, focused on Jasper's wildly agonizing first publishing experience with JUNIPER LEAVES.

    This is the story of Jim’s Group, as told by its founder. An account of how a $24 business became one of the world’s largest franchise chains, with over 4,300 Franchisees (and rising). It is an unusually frank and honest account, showing the human weaknesses and mistakes as well as the successes. 
    This is a very different guide to business success, drawn not only from Jim’s experience but the lessons he has drawn from contact with thousands of successful (and some less successful) Franchisees and Franchisors. It is a business story that says little or nothing about business plans and corporate structures, but a great deal about character and attitude. And always, about the need to put the customer first.

    The shocking true story of a young woman forced into spying for Russia under the KBG. What would make you agree to work as a KGB agent? Love, blackmail, desperation? For this young woman, there is only one thing that could make her agree to a life of service under the brutal regime that she hates. They took her baby. So begins the most compelling and revealing story about spying you’re ever likely to hear. Struggling through a life of poverty, a young woman finds herself in the relative safety of employment as a chambermaid. But everything changes when she falls for a man who betrays her. Pregnant and vulnerable, she is blackmailed into life as an agent by a brutal totalitarian state, one which never cared about the rights of any individual, especially women. With no interest in helping communism, she becomes driven by an obsessive desire to track down her stolen child. 
    From sleeping with the enemy to smearing the Soviet Union’s oldest foes. From infiltrating the upper echelons of London high society, to hunting runaway Nazis, this is the true and secret life of an undercover Russian agent inside Britain. Finally free, and safely undercover, The Quiet Spy strips away all the veils of secrecy to vividly reconstruct her bizarre life of danger, love and intrigue.
