Flutterby The Butterfly
Emerging from a chrysalis, Flutterby floats into a loving world full of supportive creatures. Yet Flutterby is too absorbed with nature to embrace their love until she experiences the power of their friendship to transform her life. This is a parable of physical and spiritual metamorphosis. The author was dedicated to serving special needs children. Even when she was struck down in mid-life with cancer, she saw life as a great wonder and an adventure. Surrounded by supportive friends, she embraced the fullness of life. This book is her gift to future generations of children as a reminder of the miracle of life, the beauty of the world, and the importance of friendship. All proceeds from this book will go to support Autism Speaks.

Tell Me Exactly What You Saw and What You Think It Means
Tell Me Exactly What You Saw and What You Think It Means is a collection that makes good on its title. In these searching poems of vulnerability and courage, a queer man wrestles with the complicated gift of surviving the plague wrought by AIDS in the 80s and 90s. Along with the deep love and familiarity of a long partnership, here we find desire even in the face of potentially difficult death, “And me the river—all the wet / hollows of the earth, opening.” Though in this world, “even the snow won’t tell the truth,” Steve Bellin-Oka will, and he does.

Something Kindred
Through the spare beauty of haiku and the fineness of belles-lettres, Nicole Tallman pens an evocative and stirring account of grieving that echoes with ache in our hearts, but also soothes us with the understanding that love is immortal despite our losses.
