Zan Azlee never planned to be a journalist. But one day, he just became one (he thought he was going to be a famous Hollywood actor). He also never planned to get married and be a dad. But one day, he just became one (he thought he was God's gift to women). Those two transitional stages eventually led Zan to experience some of the most fulfilling and best times in his life. This book is a compilation of his pieces written for The Malaysian Insider between 2009 and 2016 that has become an interesting glimpse into the life of a journalist and parent.

How do you go to sleep, if you're not sure you're going to wake up? While most of the population of the Spinning Wheel, a Chapter colonization ship, sleeps in their cryo bays, Zellendine and Troylus go through the motions of their shift awake, keeping the ship going. But the first tendrils of the Grimm star, the star that will be their sun on their new planet, are shining in the windows, and with the light comes more changes than they are prepared for. First, a baby is born dead from one of the mechanical wombs on board with no warning that something is wrong. Second, some of the people in the next shift, waking up from their cryo bay for the hand off period on the ship, are stuck in deep, steady REM sleep. And third, while Troylus is on a starwalk to close the shields over the windows because a strange anomaly is detected in front of the ship, the anomaly… attacks. He doesn’t have a better description for it. And he doesn’t have any way to explain what he does in response to save Zellendine on the other side of the window, watching on in horror. Only one more period in cryo before they are scheduled to arrive on their long awaited new planet, but can they even survive until they are supposed to go to sleep again? And if they do, will they ever wake up?

Young journalist Simon Peckham is seeing the New Year in at a London nightclub when he first notices Soraya, the daughter of an Iraqi refugee. His evening isn’t going to plan, so he steps out to get some air and watches as paramedics attend to an old rough sleeper, Tom, in an alley close by. The next morning at the local hospital, Simon enquires after Tom’s condition and is surprised to meet Soraya, who tells him that 3 men had assaulted both her and Tom, and that a second rough sleeper came to their rescue. Sifting through Tom’s meagre possessions out the back of the club, Simon stumbles across a notebook, the entries in which are written in a curious code. Will he decipher it? What will it lead to? And why is Soraya keeping the second rough sleeper secret from the police? Peter Crawley has worked amongst rough sleepers and has interviewed many former servicemen and refugees to lend authenticity to the story. The Wind between Two Worlds is a gripping novel that twists and turns as its characters conceal and reveal in equal measure. Readers who enjoy clever plots, secretive characters and a modern, original storyline will delight in this well-researched, expertly-crafted book.

When El Marini started at her new high school, her mum’s advice was, “Mind your manners, listen to your teacher and don’t chase boys.” And then life got complicated for El – her father left and she fell in love with the gorgeous-but-taken Eric Callahan. So what happens when everyone around you is moving on and you’re standing still? Chasing Boys is a dark-edged and funny young adult fiction novel by Australian author Karen Tayleur. This insightful coming-of-age story about friendship, crushes and growing up was long-listed for the 2007 Gold Inky Awards. For more fantastic YA, read Karen’s other books: Six, Hostage and Love Notes From Vinegar House. Visit her online at www.karentayleur.com “Tayleur has managed to inject her story with just the right balance of angst and humour, carefully teasing out the intricacies of the adolescent experience.” The Canberra Times “The core of adolescence is captured beautifully in this book … The insights into the mind of a teenage girl in senior high school are woven into a believable story, which takes the reader on a journey which will have you both laughing and crying: humour and pathos blended together skilfully to make this a compelling read. Highly recommended for readers aged 14+.” Reading Time magazine “Chasing Boys reads like a diary without being in the format of one … All the ingredients of El’s life are blended seamlessly, never downplaying the audience’s intelligence, as Tayleur captures the all-consuming nature of a teenage crush without making El ridiculous. Moody, poetic, and intimate, this book is billed as the ‘romance for girls who don’t like pink,’ but is much more than that.” Booklist “The prose is crisp and minimal, the chapters are short and sharp, the narrative sustains interest by incorporating flashbacks and humour while progressing the plot at an impressive speed – it will therefore be an especially good choice for reluctant readers, or those with ‘better things to do.’” Bookseller+Publisher “This book is beautiful. I wanted to read it again as soon as I’d finished the last page.” Cath Crowley, multi-award-winning author of Graffiti Moon

‘An authentic and exciting story. The perfect summer read’ -- Clare Mackintosh, author of the bestselling I LET YOU GO From the author of the bestselling Some Day I’ll Find You comes a novel of dark suspense set in the Lake District where, beneath the inviting water of the lakes, danger and death are waiting. The summer of 1976 was unprecedented in living memory. Days of blazing sunshine bled into weeks and months. In the Lake District, Cumbria’s mountains and valleys began to resemble a Grecian landscape. People swam in delightfully tropic waters to cool off. But, barely three feet below the surface, the temperature remained just a degree or so above freezing. As the summer blazed on, the drownings began… What if someone wanted to take revenge? To remove an abusive, controlling partner from their life? When and where better to stage a murder and pass it off as an accidental drowning?

Academics around the world recognise the effectiveness of storytelling as a way to engage audiences in conversations, raising awareness of issues, and encouraging change. Stories are now seen as the best medium to convey information to diverse audiences. This book explores a novel approach to representing research findings through the adoption of creative nonfictional stories (CNF). At a time when dissemination of scientific research is constantly highlighted as a fundamental aspect for academics, CNF represents an opportunity to effectively communicate science to non-academic audiences through stories. By providing practical examples of how to transform findings into compelling stories rooted in data, following the mantra of showing rather than telling, which characterises CNF, Creative Nonfiction in Sport and Exercise Research helps researchers – qualitative, quantitative, established professors, and students – to turn their research into stories. A unique contribution to the field, this book is the first in the sport and exercise research field to take scholars on a discovery jouney, moving from their classic realist to a more creative, compelling, but still rigorous representation of research findings. The book features chapters written by authors from different sport research backgrounds, who present the findings of a previously published ‘classic’ study rewritten in the form of a story. Reflective chapters focusing on the how-to and the challenges of this creative analytical practice complete the work, to support scholars in developing their creative skills.

A funny, poignant and inspirational story of widely acclaimed comedian, writer and producer, Tim Ferguson. Tim Ferguson was a star of the international comedy circuit. Along with Paul McDermott and Richard Fidler he was part of the edgy, provocative and very funny Doug Anthony Allstars (DAAS). In 1994 they were at the height of their powers, performing in a season at the Criterion Theatre on Piccadilly Circus. The three mates, who began busking on the streets of Canberra a decade earlier, had achieved their ambition to become the self-styled rock stars of comedy. Then, all of a sudden, Tim woke up one morning and his whole left side wouldn't work. He'd had a lurking suspicion that something was wrong and after more episodes he went to a doctor thinking he'd be told to change his diet and get more sleep. It wasn't so simple. An eventual diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) meant an end to the frenetic, high-energy life he was living. Carry a Big Stick is a chance for Tim to tell his story. He wants to make people laugh but also give inspiration to all the people doing it hard. A lot of people keep MS to themselves because it's invisible. In Tim's case, he has the stick. 'It's such a visible sign that something's happened; it's just easier if people know.' Carry a Big Stick meanders through Tim's life, and explains how the boy who went to nine schools in 13 years got used to saying, 'Hi, I'm the new kid'. It will detail his ambitions to become an actor and how the Doug Anthony Allstars were born and went on to become what Rolling Stone called 'The 3 amigos from hell'. Diagnosis changed a lot of things but Tim's quick wit and sense of humour weren't affected. This inspiring memoir shows us that you can laugh in the face of adversity.
