A new mother is pursued by mysterious men in black. A misguided youth learns the dark secrets of the world from an elderly neighbor on Halloween night. A housewarming party where the guests never leave. A caretaker tends to his rusted relic of a god deep in the desert...

Rich in atmosphere and character, Malfi's debut collection is not to be missed.

The quality of people’s relationships with and interactions with other people are major influences on their feelings of well-being and their evaluations of life satisfaction. The goal of this volume is to offer scholarly summaries of theory and research on topics at the frontier of the study of these social psychological influences—both interpersonal and intrapersonal—on subjective well-being and life satisfaction. The chapters cover a variety of types of relationships (e.g., romantic relationships, friendships, online relationships) as well as a variety of types of interactions with others (e.g., forgiveness, gratitude, helping behavior, self-presentation). Also included are chapters on broader social issues such as materialism, sexual identity and orientation, aging, spirituality, and meaning in life. Subjective Well-Being and Life Satisfaction provides a rich and focused resource for graduate students, upper-level undergraduate students, and researchers in positive psychology and social psychology, as well as social neuroscientists, mental health researchers, clinical and counselling psychologists, and anyone interested in the science of well-being.

Science fiction, fantasy, comics, romance, genre movies, games all drain into the Cultural Gutter, a website dedicated to thoughtful articles about disreputable art-media and genres that are a little embarrassing. Irredeemable. Worthy of Note, but rolling like errant pennies back into the gutter. The Cultural Gutter is dangerous because we have a philosophy. We try to balance enthusiasm with clear-eyed, honest engagement with the material and with our readers. This book expands on our mission with 10 articles each from science fiction/fantasy editor James Schellenberg, comics editor and publisher Carol Borden, romance editor Chris Szego, screen editor Ian Driscoll and founding editor and former games editor Jim Munroe.

Bertha Aurora Dominguez is an alluring and provocative woman of considerable wealth. As the United States Delegate to the Organization of American States boards a plane from Santiago, Chile, to Atlanta, no one knows that she is also the leader of an international terrorist network—except perhaps the nun who has strategically seated herself two rows in front of her in first class. Over the years, Dominguez, also known as Big Balls Bertha, has developed a heart as hard as diamonds, a stomach of iron, a tearless eye, and the ability to utilize various disguises and surrogates to outsmart the FBI, CIA, and Interpol agents determined to capture her. She hates trespassers and America. When she contemplates what America’s war forces have done to so many countries that include Kosovo, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria, Dominguez’s hatred of America grows. As she slowly transforms her apartment into an arsenal to be used by her mercenaries to rid the world of trespassers, Dominguez unfurls an evil plan that, if she is not stopped, has the potential to destroy America forever. Leave Well Enough Alone shares the heart-stopping journey of a female terrorist as she embarks on a resolute mission to destroy the United States.
