In a memoir both personal and public, Ken Reiman, a diplomat with dual nationality, tells the story of his heritage from a Japanese mother and American father, and his lifelong desire to serve the United States as a member of the U.S. Foreign Service in Japan. Reiman traces his education in Arizona, childhood summers in Japan, and his grandmothers’ love as driving forces behind his unwavering commitment to be a bridge between the U.S. and Japan. At 24, Reiman entered the world of diplomacy serving the U.S. with distinction in Asia, Africa, and South America.

A personal recount by CEO Aki Ashe of Brooklyn United Ties, about the impact "dressing for success" can have in your life, when it comes to accomplishing your goals. It's all about dressing for the part and living up to those high standards.

These three stories come with a breath of cold and a sort of longing, the sort of thing that consumes someone if they let it. "Wendy Won't Go" is the story of a family whose loss threatens to consume them all, "Love like Blood" is a story about the limits one will reach before love is gone, and "Cold Comfort" is about the bitterness that devours us within before it goes on to consume everything around us.

This is a set of three stories, all of which are true. The first one was just a pleasant childhood memory that recalled better days and memories, but the second one "The Gift" is just as true as the first. The third one "The Clock" is about a serious heart surgery I had just about Christmas time. After you listen to "A Christmas Miracle - Keep Your Eyes Open!", you'll better understand why I stress that this story is true, just as it was written. It asks for your faith in miracles and maybe, just maybe, your faith in a kind and loving God.

Michael and Barton Blink are back, and this time, their bounty takes them to, of all places, a town without a drop of alcohol for sale. The devil twins are here for a bounty that should be easy pickings, if they could just find a way to get a drink, first.

The Blank Twins, violent bounty hunters, hired usually for their particular ability to forget the “Alive” part of “Wanted: Dead or Alive”, lie in wait for a serial killer with 19 brutal rapes and murders to his name. Dark, violent, and strangely comic, the unforgettable and more than a little disturbing world of Alex Issa is sure to please. This thriller short story is one of many in the Devil Twins series.

It’s the Cherry Blossom festival in Washington, DC, and two old friends gather for a meal, but there is darkness in the night, and this gathering will end not as friends might wish. Carlysle’s brilliant handling of atmosphere, pathos, and setting bring a steady increase in an unexplainable sense of unease that explodes in the final paragraphs to a shocking and terrifying conclusion.

Nathanial J. Wright’s poignant tale of painful obligation in the relationships between fathers and children is as soft and understated as it is powerful. A coming-of-age story seen through the eyes of the father, the inevitability of obligatory action in the face of terrible sadness somehow fades beneath the triumph of the human recovery in the light of tragic responsibility. "Killing a Horse" is a remarkable achievement in short fiction.
