Word After Word Press 36 Hours: 2022
Book SynopsisShorlisted for the East Anglian Book Awards 2023Less than a year after being diagnosed with inoperable cancer, Fiona's husband died at home. She was his carer. Unflinching in its detail, 36 Hours is a delicate chronicle of his last day; one that changerd her life.Trade ReviewThis is a beautiful and moving account by Fiona Mason of her husband’s death at home. Their experience of care professionals, who attended in person yet without compassion, is so deftly observed it made me wince. A perfect 36 Hour memoir. It’s incredibly powerful. It’s beautifully told. It’s a gem. I think this is a book that has the power to make a difference. DR KATHRYN MANNIX; Fiona's intimate account of the last 36 hours of a man's life is a powerful work of life writing. It's courageous, tender, exasperated, angry, lyrical and occasionally even funny, but never voyeuristic. The simplicity of the prose and the honesty of observation are compelling. BLAKE MORRISON; Very moving and beautifully written. Marvellously clear and brave. JENNY UGLOW; Powerful and precise writing. It tackles elusive emotional states in a highly nuanced way. The detail is so lovingly preserved and presented. SASHA DUGDALE; Rarely have I felt so transported by someone else's words. Fiona draws you into the most intimate and personal of spaces and offers you the privilege of sharing 36 hours that would normally be invisible to the outside world. With great honesty and generosity, she invites us into her home as she cares for her dying husband. It's an invitation you won't want to turn down. BOBBIE FARSIDES, Professor of Clinical and Biomedical Ethics, Brighton and Sussex Medical School; 36 Hours addresses an area of real current debate and interest and does so in a way that prioritises both aesthetic and human concerns equally. Committed and talented writing. CHRIS GRIBBLE, National Centre for Writing; The writing is vivid and very clear, highlighting the delicate balance and poignancy of the work involved in end-of-life care and the minutiae of support involved in the simplest of daily activities, making the mundane poetic. A remarkable piece of work. KATE FLATT OBE; 36 Hours is such a powerful, moving and beautifully written book. Fi share’s the truth of such an intimate and harrowing experience with so much clarity, grace and compassion. This story speaks to the need for more humanity in the treatment and care for those facing end of life. TOBY OLIVER, Author, Rise and Shine. Deeply moving and intensely raw. LI MILLS, Death Doula; I'm in awe of the honesty and openness with which Fiona described her experience. Her account is a wonderful way of opening up some much-needed conversations about death and dying, not only at a public/societal level but, also at the patient-professional level.

Sarnia House LLP Fifty Miles with my Dad: A journey on the Suffolk
Book SynopsisThis is the true story of how a ten-year-old's charity challenge led through young philanthropy to a calling in medicine. Recalled by the girl as a young woman, it is a light-hearted but poignant memoir of parent-child journey, set amid the cultural and natural heritage of a beautiful part of the world. May gives a moving account of a trek prompted initially by bereavement. Clashes of attitudes and interests give the dialogue a playful vein; but as the miles go by, often with no other person in sight, father and daughter find new depths of conversation. Relics of war prompt her to ask of past generations, whose legacies he tries to convey; and as she reconnects him with childhood, its innocence and imagination, both see their worlds from new perspectives. Having made front-page news their venture bears lasting fruit. She raises enough for a permanent endowment providing grants from its income, giving her a role in selecting local charities, and allowing her to see their work at first hand. As a budding musician she gains insight into the therapy that music can bring, and while still at school she becomes a recorded composer; meanwhile, seeing different forms of disability and treatment, she learns what fulfilment can be gained from making a difference. Warmly received as an enchanting and inspirational story, ‘Fifty Miles with my Dad' is a celebration of quality time and of rewards from philanthropy that are open to all.Trade ReviewThis is an enchanting book that any parent will relate to. Full of wise observations on life as seen through the eyes of a ten-year-old child. Delightful and moving. MIRANDA AND WILLIAM KENDALL DL; This moving story is living proof of how philanthropy is open to everyone and of how even a child's walk on the coast with a parent can turn into such a seismic inspiration.

THERESA LLOYD, FOUNDER DIRECTOR, PHILANTHROPY UK; AUTHOR (WITH DR. BETH BREEZE), 'RICHER LIVES'; May's touching book provides an insight into the special nature of this beautiful part of the world. The East Coast is rich in culture and heritage, and it is heart-warming to have these qualities portrayed so personally and in aid of such an important cause.

ADAM BURROWS, NATURAL ENGLAND; A fantastic celebration of a journey along the Suffolk coast, sharing the best of all that binds us inextricably to the natural world through the lens of intergenerational discovery. MICHAEL STRAND, SUFFOLK WILDLIFE TRUST; This beautiful and deeply personal account of ten-year-old May's journey along our incomparable Suffolk coast challenges us to rediscover the wisdom of childhood, the difference between achievement and fulfilment, and whether we are 'soldier, poet, or soldier-poet.'

Poems and Pictures Ltd The Virus Poems
Book SynopsisThe Covid-19 virus outbreak of 2020 will forever be a pivotal part of human history. The impact was global and affected everyone on the planet. Here, in the UK, we managed the coronavirus in similar ways to other countries but also with a degree of Britishness that has defined us for centuries. Not that it was all good and it raised many issues about our culture and values. Hundreds of thousands caught the virus and many thousands died. The impact on the nation, on families and our very own NHS was palpable and at times, almost too much to bear. A Facebook group in Marlow was set up to help people, to communicate and provide support to anyone that might need it. It became incredibly important for many and it was here that Mike started writing 'The Virus Poems'. The journey began and ended sixty seven days later on the 31st May 2020. When you read just one poem it might touch you or amuse you. It is when you consider every subject that, without knowing, this has become a walk through our time in 'Lockdown' as this period will be forever known. We have also included alongside every poem an extract of the news headlines of the day to help you put the poems into some context.

Book SynopsisShortlisted for the ABIA Nonfiction Book of the Year'A tender, touching and at times bloody funny meditation on life. And death. And how to live.' David Wenham'For as long as I can remember, there has always been just the three of us. Three sisters. Only a year between each. Inseparable. It's been like that for almost 50 years ... Until my youngest sister walked out into her suburban backyard and took her life.Is it possible to ever heal a tear in your universe?'After her younger sister died suddenly, broadcaster Indira Naidoo's world was shattered. Turning to her urban landscape for solace, Indira found herself drawn to a fig tree overlooking Sydney harbour. A connection began to build between the two - one with a fractured heart, the other a centurion offering quiet companionship while asking nothing in return.As Indira grappled with her heartbreak, an unnoticed universe of infinite beauty revealed itself: pale vanilla clouds pirouetting across the sky, resilient weeds pushing through cracks in the footpath, the magical biodiversity of tiny puddles. With the help of a posse of urban guides, she began to explore how nature - whatever bits of nature are within reach - can heal us during life's darker chapters, whether nursing a broken heart or an anxious mind.The Space Between the Stars is a heart-rending, at times funny, and uplifting tribute to love and our innate need to connect to the natural world, a celebration of the reassuring cycle of renewal that sustains and nourishes us all.'As long as you can see the stars, you can never truly be lost.'Trade Review'A tender, touching and at times bloody funny meditation on life. And death. And how to live. The Space Between the Stars is a little treasure. I am richer for having read this book.'

Thank you dear Indira for taking our hand and bravely showing us how being in nature can provide our way.' Sarah Wilson'This book is life-changing - from deep loss and despair there is also light. Put your face towards it. It may be the only thing that feels real at this time. Let nature do its job and fix what has been broken in all of us.' Kate Ceberano'A powerfully moving and insightful journey. Careful attention is a form of love, and Indira Naidoo's vivid writing shows us how such love can lift and expand our minds and spirits, drawing us into the wonders of the universe.'

Exisle Publishing Inside the Dyslexic Mind: A resource for parents,
Book SynopsisLaughton King shares his understanding of the dyslexic mind from his own lived experience as a dyslexic child, an angry adolescent, a therapist and eventually an author. When describing what it is like to be dyslexic, he includes himself. We think in pictures, we chase words around the pages of books, and we have trouble finding any sensible connection between squiggles on paper and real things they are meant to refer to. And this all happens in perpetual reverse gear. You guessed it, for us, school is not cool, and for most of us this makes life tough.'At the heart of this book is a ground-breaking concept the diesel/petrol analogy. As Laughton describes it, a dyslexic person is like a diesel vehicle. They run perfectly if you give them the right fuel, but if you put petrol in the tank (i.e. expect them to learn like every 'normal' child in our current education system) they break down. This book helps dyslexic (diesel) thinkers make sense of their lives, and provides valuable guidance for parents and teachers.There is nothing wrong with the dyslexic child's brain. They do not need medication and do not need to be rewired' nor recalibrated'. Laughton's message to parents and educators is that once they accept this processing difference and understand the dyslexic style of thinking they can readily work with these children and help them achieve their own success.
