Stable Weight is a story of resilience, empowerment, and the transformative power of the human-animal bond, revealing how even the most sensitive soul can ditch being a good girl for becoming an independent woman. One minute, Lisa Whalen was leaping fences on horseback; the next she was splayed in the sand-mirroring a fall at age sixteen that ended in a psych ward. Whalen chased perfection, in the form of an eating disorder, to the brink of suicide. Treatment helped, but her turnaround came from meeting ten special horses. They challenged her to love her body, live in the moment, and face her fears.

Capture My Heart, Educte My Soul is a training and reflection manual for higher education faculty who teach adult students deemed unprepared or underprepared for the rigors of college coursework. These students place into developmental education courses, and enter higher education representing every socio-economic class, ethnicity, faith, and background. However, the reality of enrolling in college underprepared is disproportionately true for low-income students, first-generation students, and students of color. The college success disparities are disturbing for such students, particularly, although not exclusively, at community colleges, prompting some researchers to deem remedial education as the systemic black hole from which students are unlikely to emerge.

One of America's truly unique writers, Chris Helvey has brought eleven brand new, finely crafted short stories.

In her debut essay collection, Chelsey Clammer dives flesh-first into finding her home. But these essays aren''t about places, but a state of mind-when you''re at home in your body, you''re at home in the world. With both lyricism and wit, Clammer uses her body to explore a complicated history of assault, addictions, mental illnesses and sexuality. Ranging from hilarious to chilling, the powerful prose in BodyHome drives our bodies back home.

Blind as a child, Eric Hoffer--one of America's most important thinkers--regained his sight at the age of fifteen and became a voracious reader. At eighteen, fate would take his remaining family, sending him on the road with three hundred dollars and into the life of a Depression Era migrant worker, but his appetite for knowledge--history, science, mankind--remained and became the basis for his insights on human nature. Filled with timeless aphorisms and entertaining stories, Truth Imagined tracks Hoffer's years on the road, which served as the breeding ground for his most fertile thoughts.
