        "description": "In No Bad Days, JT Jester shares his against-all-odds story of overcoming countless physical and learning challenges to help others find joy in any circumstance and understand that there are no bad days—only hard ones. By the time JT Jester was three years old, he had spent 250 days in the hospital, and he endured sixteen major surgeries before he was sixteen. Diagnosed with VATER/VACTERL Syndrome, a rare combination of several birth defects. JT’s life was anything but easy. On top of his physical challenges, he suffered dyslexia and short-term memory loss, which made learning nearly impossible for him. Yet JT pushed past his physical and educational roadblocks to achieve what many people told him he would never do—learn to read, graduate from high school, attend college, and become a successful motivational speaker, influential podcast host, and bestselling author. In No Bad Days, JT details the incredible story of how he overcame what seemed like insurmountable odds and shares the many invaluable lessons he has learned throughout his life in the hope that others might reach their full potential. These lessons include how to: Find Your Tribe, Pull Off the Label, Stretch Yourself, Listen to Others, and Learn to Fall. JT’s improbable life story is evidence that regardless of the mental and physical challenges you might face, you can defy the odds to create the life you want and accomplish the things you’ve only dreamed about. His remarkable journey is all the proof you need. Through his story, and the inspiring stories of others, JT Jester shows readers how to find joy in any circumstance and proves that there are really no bad days—only hard ones.",

        "description": "#1 International Bestseller in TEN Categories on Amazon in the US and CA. Including College Student Life in and Physical Impairments in Canada. Including Special Education, Communicative Disorders in Special Ed., Learning Disabilities, Physical Impairments, Travel Biographies & Memoirs, Family & Inspirational Spirituality, Men's Inspirational Spirituality, and Miracles & Spirituality in the United States. UNTETHER is the story of JT Mestdagh, a young man born with a death sentence and who is now an entrepreneur and adventurer on a mission to empower people to UNTETHER from limiting beliefs and to soar to their highest dreams. Proceeds of book sales go to the JT Mestdagh Foundation, which Mestdagh launched to support people facing challenges, whether it be disease, disability, disappointment, or dyslexia. An extreme skier, experienced mountaineer, and boater, Mestdagh divides his time between Michigan and Colorado. Diagnosed with a life-threatening syndrome called VATER/VACTERL, Mestdagh endured 250 days in hospitals before age 3 and 16 major surgeries before age 16. As soon as doctors discovered one condition and treated it, a new and worse one would pop up. On top of that, Mestdagh has such severe dyslexia and short-term memory loss that his school told him in fourth grade that he would be illiterate for life. Infused with drama and humor, UNTETHER will pull you through the relentless suffering into light-filled breakthroughs--because Mestdagh and his family stood strong in their faith and never, never, never gave up. Along with years of medical treatments and nonstop home care, his parents relentlessly hunted for the right program to help Mestdagh learn to read. Nothing worked until in fifth grade a God-arranged encounter with a unique system called Tattum Reading changed Mestdagh's life forever. UNTETHER tells a story of courage, determination, and overcoming. Young or not-so-young, you will come away with a renewed sense of hope and possibility. Learn that you are not a mistake; you are created for something amazing. After all, if an ailing toddler who practically lived in a hospital can now climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, if a boy who couldn't read or write can now publish his memoir, you too have no limits to what you can accomplish!",

All Pablo Cortez cares about is creating art, whether it's humongous graffiti sprayed across Los Angeles or zero-gravity paint slinging in space. When he confronts the alien Sirens of Jupiter, who have zapped the minds of earlier explorers, he takes their overwhelming flood of bizarre images as subject matter for new masterpieces. A jangling, rambunctious picture of artistic genius ... tons of fun for freethinking readers who appreciate heroes with cojones.\" Publisher's Weekly \"Hard SF, satire, adventure, and some very strange humor combine in this intriguing, inventive, and sometimes disconcerting SF story.\" -Science Fiction Chronicle A wild young Chicano artist who covers Greater Los Angeles with fantastic graffiti. A beautiful African telepath who opens the door to communications with the deadly Sirens of Jupiter. \"An alien first contact story featuring a hyperactive, irreverent, and self-absorbed Chicano artist from East LA. Cortez is recruited to make contact with creatures discovered on Jupiter who \"speak\" in projected images. It's a dangerous assignment; previous attempts to communicate have ended in insanity and death, but Pablo is always up for a little bit of craziness.\" - Michael Lichter, Amazon \"It grabs you and won't let you go. The best [first novel] I've read in science fiction since Neuromancer.\" - Tom Witmore, Locus Not since Ayn Rand's Howard Roarke has there been an artist as iconoclastic, as idealistic, and as splendidly spectacular as Pablo Cortez. And look out, he's twice as radical! Energetic, fast-paced, funny, and thoroughly enjoyable.\" -Analog Combining hard science fiction with pyrotechnics worthy of \"The Stars, My Destination,\" Ernest Hogan tells the story of the painter who founds the Guerrilla Muralists Of Los Angeles, goes on to make Mankind's first contact with the sentient life-forms of Jupiter. \"If Hunter S Thompson and Alfred Bester had a Chicano child, it would be this.\" Dave Hutchinson It's a roller-coaster ride from vulgarity to the transcendent, as the unforgettable Pablo Cortez struggles, selfishly and selflessly, to expand humanity's consciousness on a journey from the barrio to the stars. \"Ernest Hogan is the creator of a Xicano science fiction genre with a crossover readership. ...raw creativity.\" - Frank S Lechuga *** \"All cultures have some acceptable form of human sacrifice. And if you really want to cause trouble, try taking it away.\" -Pablo Cortez Introductory price $9.99 - regularly $12.99",

        "description": "Who’s really behind America’s appetite for foods from around the globe? This group biography from an electric new voice in food writing honors seven extraordinary women, all immigrants, who left an indelible mark on the way Americans eat today. Taste Makers stretches from World War II to the present, with absorbing and deeply researched portraits of figures including Mexican-born Elena Zelayeta, a blind chef; Marcella Hazan, the deity of Italian cuisine; and Norma Shirley, a champion of Jamaican dishes. In imaginative, lively prose, Mayukh Sen—a queer, brown child of immigrants—reconstructs the lives of these women in vivid and empathetic detail, daring to ask why some were famous in their own time, but not in ours, and why others shine brightly even today. Weaving together histories of food, immigration, and gender, Taste Makers will challenge the way readers look at what’s on their plate—and the women whose labor, overlooked for so long, makes those meals possible.",

Generations later, this fragile colony has managed to survive, eking out a hardy existence. Yet life is tough, and much technological knowledge has been lost. Then strangers appear. They possess unparalleled knowledge and thrilling technology - and they've arrived from another world to help humanity's colonies. But not all is as it seems, and the price of the strangers' help may be the colony itself. Children of Memory by Arthur C.

Thousands of years ago, Earth's terraforming program took to the stars. On the world they called Nod, scientists discovered alien life - but it was their mission to overwrite it with the memory of Earth. Then humanity's great empire fell, and the program's decisions were lost to time. Aeons later, humanity and its new spider allies detected fragmentary radio signals between the stars. They dispatched an exploration vessel, hoping to find cousins from old Earth. But those ancient terraformers woke something on Nod better left undisturbed. And it's been waiting for them.For more from Adrian Tchaikovsky, check out: Children of Time",
