The history of the AIDS epidemic has largely been told from the perspective of gay men: their losses, struggles and contributions. But what about the women - in particular, straight women? Not just Elizabeth Taylor and Princess Diana, but thousands whose accomplishments have never been recognized?For almost forty years, straight women have have been affected by HIV/AIDS. They have fought for the right to be included in clinical trials and qualify for disability benefits. They have raised money and awareness. They have devoted their lives to caregiving, medical research and advocacy. But until now, their stories have been ignored or forgotten, even in accounts of women's history.Drawing on personal interviews and archival research, Fag Hags, Divas and Moms: The Legacy of Straight Women in the AIDS Community is the first book to share the stories of these women around the world, throughout the epidemic. Some of the names are familiar; most are not. But all have left a lasting impact on the fight against a virus that has killed over 40 million people around the world, half of them women.Author, speaker and activist Victoria Noe assures their place in women's history, for their determination to educate and advocate, to end the epidemic once and for all.
Katya Sadilov is a former child prodigy violinist turned farmwife--a woman plonked into the wrong life in rural Saskatchewan. Her new husband, George, must instruct her in the most basic domestic skills--how to cook, work the stove, and milk the cow. Survival in this harsh world depends on know-how.Long before medical people coined the term Bipolar, Katya's mania followed by melancholia, tortures her and rankles her husband. The tight-minded citizens in town shun her. The harsh prairie landscape deflates her. Loki, a barnyard crow, is her sole confidant. Her only advocate is her father, Vasili. But, music resonates brilliantly from the f-holes of Katya's violin. Can she trust that the strength of songs can overcome her plight and crippled mind?This story explores a father's love for his daughter and the trials he suffers to protect her. The family copes with hardship, tragedy, and the diatonic scale of mental collapse. Still, the music lingers. It fills Katya's days, embracing and hypnotic, and whispers through the wheat stalks in sweet, sibylline tones.

Our favorite teenage life coach is back, but this time he's got his own problems. Finn loves tennis, but when he plays at his first major tennis tournament, he freezes. Not only is he super mortified, he feels like he's disappointing everyone. Maybe he's not that good after all...? Meanwhile, the rest of his gang is also stressed: Tom is an awesome tennis player, but doesn't even seem like he's even trying. Chris thinks she's a soccer 'has been' at 13. And the only thing more jumpy than Xavier is the basketball he dribbles nonstop. The only calm one is Charlie, but everyone is so caught up in their own drama, they're not listening.Meanwhile, Finn's sister, Fiona, is having a rough time from a pint sized bully. After earning the top spot in the gala dance show, Fiona's 'best friend' snubs her. Then it gets worse. She takes to social media to embarrass Fiona, and turns her class against her. Finn and his friends (okay, mainly Chris) provide some protection and help Fiona get through this rough time.Finn, who's usually the one helping everyone else with their problems, has to figure his life out. He loves tennis (And he loves the fact that he gets to see CC, the captain of the high school tennis team, and Finn's crush, at tournaments ) But these days, he's not so sure... Does he really hate doing tournaments?By talking to teammates and friends, and hearing Charlie talk about performing in plays, Finn starts to put together a 'toolbox' of ways to cope with stress, expectations, and anxiety. He also learns his biggest lessons from an unlikely source: his Labrador retriever, Ralph.Also, Finn and Tom's coaches have a cool idea that makes the guys have a lot more fun.Just as Finn starts to feel like he's conquering his stress and having fun competing, something happens to Chris.It puts everything in perspective - even Xavier's big announcement. Finn and his friends have to come together and help each other out if they're going to get through this. And they do

So let's get this straight. This is a story about romance.Well, it's not a story. I mean, it's not something somebody made up. It's about me. And yeah, in case you're wondering, I'm a guy.Surprised? Sure you are. You figure those words just don't go together. Romance, with a capital R. Guy, with a capital G. You're probably sitting there and smirking. What could a dude possibly know about romance? You figure we're big on sex. But romance?You're right. Romance is not a male thing.And that's exactly my problem.The bottom line is that whatever you think you know about men and romance is pretty much correct. You figure we're big on the F-word as long as it doesn't stand for Forever.And you're right.***The F-Word is a sexy romantic comedy. It's funny, it's tender...and it's HOT

Fictional Reality: A Nuclear Kid-oh yeah, I see it now Frankie But Oapateac? Must be like an anagram, right...A peacoat? For a subtitle? Frankie A Peacoat? What does a jacket, which is mostly worn by sailors, have to do with Frankie? Forget the subtitle, a'ight.So, who's Frankie? She's like the deadliest weapon on the planet. No joke. And not only that, a death squad is out to capture her and use her abilities to its own advantage. Sort of like Chloe, right? Nah. Whereas Chloe relies on the gaze, let's just say Frankie prefers a softer touch. Just kidding. Frankie can harness the power of an entire army combined. Serious. Her dial is well-past beast mode However, while she's evading capture, she accidentally collides with a bus transporting a girls junior varsity lacrosse team, who is on its way to an upcoming match. A deadly shootout ensues between Frankie and the National Guard, yada, yada, yada, then later, after the lacrosse team is interrogated by FBI agents, who believe the shootout was "terrorist" related, each player strangely disappears overnight-Who would've thought?With very little knowledge of their abductors, the lacrosse players wake up inside holding cells, only to be questioned by three strange men, two claiming to be doctors-what a load of bulls**t Their sole mission, according to the "doctors," is to conduct a series of assessments in order to rehash the nightmarish attack, which the lacrosse team desperately wants to forget. But what do you know? Some of the players' stories don't add up. One of the girls is lying And that lie can either save a country on the brink of war or leave an already divided country even more divided.Oh yeah, P.S., forgot to mention: a familiar face enters frame. First name Joshua. Last name-well, I don't wanna spoil the ending. Y'all are in for a surprise...
