Lyrical Fountain is my second published collection of poems. It is a work of creative art, a historical thesis of growth and development, and presented to you with a strong conviction that it will be an inspiration to all who partake of its healing properties. One God, One Aim, One Destiny.

College Lyrically is a coming-of-age novel about two musically bound best friends who set out on a cross country road trip just three weeks before they are set to leave for Santa Clara on full soccer scholarships. Brooke and Emily head across the United States with one destination in mind, a rock concert set in the state of Michigan. With two acoustic guitars in the trunk of their Ford Explorer and five thousand dollars in cash, they hope to make it alive to the concert and find some sign of what is to become of their lives in the future. Despite the turbulence and chaotic moments along the way, Brooke and Emily manage to find the good in all people and see all the joys their futures will bring them. This book is a true testament to friendship.

“The latest fashion among young city-dwellers, providing a new advertising niche for manufacturers of luxury products, is the good old family picnic.”—Le Monde “An upper-class English ritual traditionally confined to rural French life, the picnic has been rebranded.”—The Economist “The great charm of this social device is undoubtedly the freedom it affords. . . . To eat cold chicken and drink iced claret under trees, amid the grass and the flowers.”—Appleton’s Journal of Literature, Science, and Art, 1869 Urban picnics are a hot foodie trend right now; from The Economist to Le Monde, food journalists and lovers the world around are jumping on the blanket. Like so many of us, they want to put their hectic city lives on hold and enjoy themselves—without having to head off into the hinterland. The Urban Picnic is designed for modern gourmands and kitchen newcomers alike to inspire them to introduce a little pleasure and picnickery into their lives. With an irreverent and highly opinionated history of the picnic, strange accounts from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, original illustrations and over 200 recipes—many contributed from renowned chefs such as Nigella Lawson, Mark Bittman, Regan Daley and Bob Blumer—it’s the essential how-to (and how-not-to) for anyone who was ever looking for a tasty little morsel to eat under that tree that grows in Brooklyn. Two-color throughout. Recipes include: Barbecued Lemon Chicken (Anne Lindsay) Banana-Strawberry Layer Cake (Regan Daley) Mint Julep Peaches (Nigella Lawson) Chicken Liver Crostini (Umberto Menghi) Ahi Tuna Salad with Green Papaya (Rob Feenie)
