Stirring Attraction

Stirring Attraction

Sara Jane Stone

HARPERCOLLINS PUBLISHERS INC
2024
pokkari
The second, sizzling book in Sara Jane Stone's Second Shots series... When Dominic Fairmore left Oregon to be all he could be as an Army Ranger, he always knew he'd come back to claim Lily Greene. But after six years away and three career-ending bullets, Dominic is battered, broken, and nobody's hero--so he stays away. Until he learns Lily has been the victim of a seemingly random attack. He'll do anything to keep her safe . . . even go home. Lily is starting to find a life without Dominic when suddenly her wounded warrior is home and playing bodyguard--though all she really wants is for him to take her. But she refuses to play the part of a damsel in distress, no matter how much she misses his tempting touch. He'll leave as soon as she's safe and Lily knows her heart will never heal. But as attraction stirs to so much more, danger closes in. With more than Lily's heart at stake, Dominic can no longer draw a line between protecting Lily and loving her . . .

Mind Your Manners: How to Be Your Best Self in Any Situation

Mind Your Manners: How to Be Your Best Self in Any Situation

Sara Jane Ho

Balance
2024
sidottu
Founder of a global etiquette school and star of her own Netflix series Sara Jane Ho teaches readers how to thrive socially in a variety of situations, in person and online. Etiquette, Sara Jane says, is the glue that holds society together. Humans are social creatures, after all--we need connection to survive. But with global cultures in flux and the post-pandemic digital age, shadow epidemics of anxiety and loneliness are on the rise. Plus, the old rules of "decorum" don't match the times. Amidst all this withdrawal and change, social growth can feel out of reach. How do we leave the comfort of our homes, step away from our screens, and interact face to face? How do we create genuine bonds with people we've just met, and how do we maintain those ties throughout our lives? Even the most resilient social butterflies among us face sticky situations--from accidentally-sent invites to unruly work and family encounters--any advice would help. In her signature cheeky yet pragmatic style, Sara Jane Ho imparts a lifetime's worth of lessons, pro-tips, and FAQs on social and digital etiquette across the five main microcultures in our lives: Friendship & Social Life, Work, Dating & Relationships, Family, and Food & Travel. From jumping everyday hurdles to discerning unspoken, cross-cultural cues, Mind Your Manners helps us feel the joy and transformation of social fluency--that deep comfort that comes from connection, inclusion, and presenting our best self in any situation.

Beckett and Musicality

Beckett and Musicality

Sara Jane Bailes; Nicholas Till

Routledge
2020
nidottu
Discussion concerning the ’musicality’ of Samuel Beckett’s writing now constitutes a familiar critical trope in Beckett Studies, one that continues to be informed by the still-emerging evidence of Beckett’s engagement with music throughout his personal and literary life, and by the ongoing interest of musicians in Beckett’s work. In Beckett’s drama and prose writings, the relationship with music plays out in implicit and explicit ways. Several of his works incorporate canonical music by composers such as Schubert and Beethoven. Other works integrate music as a compositional element, in dialogue or tension with text and image, while others adopt rhythm, repetition and pause to the extent that the texts themselves appear to be ’scored’. But what, precisely, does it mean to say that a piece of prose or writing for theatre, radio or screen, is ’musical’? The essays included in this book explore a number of ways in which Beckett’s writings engage with and are engaged by musicality, discussing familiar and less familiar works by Beckett in detail. Ranging from the scholarly to the personal in their respective modes of response, and informed by approaches from performance and musicology, literary studies, philosophy, musical composition and creative practice, these essays provide a critical examination of the ways we might comprehend musicality as a definitive and often overlooked attribute throughout Beckett’s work.

Performance Theatre and the Poetics of Failure

Performance Theatre and the Poetics of Failure

Sara Jane Bailes

Routledge
2010
sidottu
What does it mean to "fail" in performance? How might staging failure reveal theatre’s potential to expand our understanding of social, political and everyday reality? What can we learn from performances that expose and then celebrate their ability to fail? In Performance Theatre and the Poetics of Failure, Sara Jane Bailes begins with Samuel Beckett and considers failure in performance as a hopeful strategy. She examines the work of internationally acclaimed UK and US experimental theatre companies Forced Entertainment, Goat Island and Elevator Repair Service, addressing accepted narratives about artistic and cultural value in contemporary theatre-making. Her discussion draws on examples where misfire, the accidental and the intentionally amateur challenge our perception of skill and virtuosity in such diverse modes of performance as slapstick and punk.Detailed rehearsal and performance analysis are used to engage theory and contextualise practice, extending the dialogue between theatre arts, live art and postmodern dance. The result is a critical account of performance theatre that offers essential reading for practitioners, scholars and students of Performance, Theatre and Dance Studies.

pokkari
Before the word "foodie" ever entered the lexicon, Sara Jane Parker was ahead of the curve, crafting dishes like avocado toast and putting curry into seafood salad. The Petite Palate Collection: Memoir and Recipes from the Kitchen of S. Jane Parker preserves these favorite recipes that were created and served in her tea shop in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, which she and her husband ran in the 1990s.The beloved tea shop didn't just lure people satisfying a sweet tooth with its famous cookies or bringing home comforting chicken salad from the deli case, packed with made-from-scratch dishes.

Guymon

Guymon

Sara Jane Richter

Arcadia Publishing (SC)
2014
nidottu
Guymon, the "Queen City" of the Oklahoma Panhandle, has long been the linchpin of Panhandle commerce, education, and entertainment. As a community of over 12,000 residents, it has seen growth--especially in the past two decades--mainly because of a rise in its immigrant population. With a median family income of $46,000, a low unemployment rate, and nearly 900 businesses, many see it as a thriving and prosperous town. Above all, Guymon knows its past and revels in its history of pioneers who settled the area in the late 1880s amid dugouts and cattle ranches and the railroad. Frontier heritage is clearly reflected in Guymon's spirit of independence, friendliness, and irrepressibility. Guymon, a town older than the state of Oklahoma, is proud of its tenacity and will continue to be the mainstay of the Panhandle for years to come.
