Death is a certainty, and while much about the path is uncertain, how we choose to shape the journey is up to us.
Most of us know that a lack of a game plan can lead to disaster. Why then does death feel like a sudden, uncomfortable, closed-lip topic? Losing someone we love is an inevitable part of life. What if we could think about caregiving early and with solid insights into what makes a difference for those we love—and ourselves?
With Love offers tools to help you feel more prepared for the inevitable—from having hard conversations and making key financial and legal decisions, to assembling care teams and managing care, to getting the support you need to grieve and move forward. Whether you are early on in the journey or recovering from the loss of someone you love, With Love shares insights, advice, and frameworks that can help you be a more effective carer for yourself, your elders, and everyone on the path with you (there are more people than you think).
The path may not be easy or like anyone else’s—but you don’t have to walk it alone. With Love is an honest, heartfelt, and practical roadmap to having a more positive caregiving journey.
Parenting doesn’t come with a manual. But fellow mom Jen Shoemaker Davidson is here to offer straight talk and practical strategies for establishing loving and trusting communication to last a lifetime.
When her own kids entered their teenage years, Jen realized she had important topics she wanted to share with them—but getting them to open up and talk to her would take her full commitment to showing up, even when it was hard. What started as simple “life lesson lunches”—intentional times to sit down and focus on important conversations—became a tried-and-true philosophy for fostering connection throughout their teenage years.
In Keep Talking, Davidson has created a trusted companion for parents navigating the meaningful—and often messy and embarrassing—conversations essential for maintaining open communication with your kids. Through her practical tips and tools, here’s just a glimpse of what you’ll learn:
With sample conversations to help you get started, Keep Talking offers parents open and honest guidance without judgment, delivered with laughter and love.
Twenty-five Supreme Court decisions speak in this book—not as legal arguments, but as lived consequences. A ballot that never got counted. A body claimed by the state. A right narrowed until it disappears. 6–3 and 5–4: Betrayal From Within traces how closely divided rulings have reshaped American life.
The Supreme Court was once seen as the conscience of the nation—the last safeguard of rights and equality. 6–3 and 5–4: Betrayal From Within tells a different story.
Across twenty-five landmark decisions of the twenty-first century, this book reveals how the Court has redefined freedom, democracy, and justice itself. Each case—from Bush v. Gore to Dobbs, from Citizens United to Trump v. United States—speaks in its own voice: a taxpayer dollar forced to fund a sermon, a union fee that can no longer be collected.
Through these haunting first-person narratives, the book transforms legal doctrine into lived experience. It asks readers not just to understand these rulings, but to feel them—to see what happens when law becomes ideology and neutrality becomes complicity.
With prose as sharp as its outrage, 6–3 and 5–4 exposes a Court that claims to defend the Constitution while hollowing it out from within. A reckoning for anyone who still believes justice wears a blindfold—and a warning for those who know she doesn’t.

"The poems are refreshing. Ambient. Mysterious . . . With language both tempered and ecstatic, Allen gives us a book steeped in the salt of old ports, the bite of memory, and the unexpected warmth of the now." -Matthew Lippman, award-winning author of We Are All Sleeping with Our Sneakers On
This is a place you never hear about in America...
A unique American collection of poetry, Whaling Town explores the rough work of self-realization and the roots that anchor us to the unsteady ground of our past.
Facing a turning point in his life, David Parker Allen began traversing the landscape of the United States, researching and writing music and assembling the bones of a collection of poetry. His journey led him through a personal family immigrant story in New Bedford, Massachusetts-the whaling town Melville made famous-to small communities across the Mississippi Delta and deep South, Gulf Coast, and Mountain West, as well as the streets of Chicago and New York. Jumping from rural America to urban hubs and back, Whaling Town tells a story of place and people in a gritty world that's both in and out of our control.
With clear-eyed observations and gentle musicality, Allen takes stock of the burden of our collective history and looks directly into passing storms that we each must face alone. When the skies clear, how do we come to terms with self and our place in this world, and what do we build from the wreckage?

Job Junky is a bare-bones memoir of work, survival, and everything in between. Told in short, raw chapters, it reads more like a barstool confession than a polished life story.
Rudy Ridolfo worked over 50 jobs while chasing a creative dream—from managing shady bars and moving trucks to airport tarmacs, martial arts dojos, and indie film sets. Along the way, he crossed paths with unforgettable coworkers, chaotic bosses, and even icons like Al Pacino and Robert Redford—learning not from their fame, but from how they worked.
There’s no tidy arc or grand revelation here. Just true stories from the grind—gritty, absurd, and unexpectedly funny.
If you’ve ever clocked in, burned out, or wondered what the hell you’re doing with your life—this one’s for you.

“A beautifully impressionistic weaving of anecdotes, poetry, and personal letters and an ode to the seasons of a year, of a life, and of a lineage.” —Alexandra A. Chan, author of In the Garden Behind the Moon
Reminiscent of Mary Oliver’s A Thousand Mornings and Amanda Thomson’s Belonging, this evocative blend of poetry, prose, and personal letters unfurls a story of an untamed, beautiful place—and one woman’s choice to spend the last chapter of her life making it her home.
At age sixty-two, Fern started a new life. Recently widowed, she found a piece of neglected acreage above the Snake River on which to build a home, forge a community—and find renewed purpose. On the land around Fern’s Pond, she nurtured a vineyard, an abundant garden, and a small farm of one cow, a goat, and chickens. She befriended wild ducks and harvested trout in her waters, and she used the materials that grew around the pond and springs to weave baskets—unique works of art that captured the elegance of the natural world.
Songs from Fern’s Pond is a collage of poetry, letters, and prose that captures the universal resilience of the human spirit through the humor and courage of a woman who fearlessly pursued the life she dreamed of. A duet of text between mother and daughter, it’s a transcendent vision of the rough, wild, and beautiful landscape of the heart—and a reminder that every chapter is worth living to its fullest.
