Review\nMeeples Together is a must-buy book for anybody who is even remotely interested in cooperative gaming. I learned of or better framed concepts that were brewing in a primordial soup in my mind, and I have almost 900 published reviews and thousands of playtesting hours under my belt. It is an easy, insightful, entertaining, thought-provoking read, in many ways doing more than what its blurb suggests. It is one of these rare books that takes our hobby to the next level, probably because it is written by gamers, for gamers. --Antonio S, RPG.net Reviews\nHow and Why Cooperative Games Work

You can't succeed alone and victory requires more than understanding your teammates. You need to know the game.

Christopher Allen's flash fiction collection OTHER HOUSEHOLD TOXINS blends the hard and the soft, humor and grit, from, as Michelle Elvy writes, broke-down to disoriented to absurd." OTHER HOUSEHOLD TOXINS could "well serve as a flash fiction primer,' says Kathy Fish. The "stories are smart, fresh, and deeply moving." Michelle Elvy similarly sees "in this powerful collection," stories that "reveal glimpses of our own humanity," flash fiction that "becomes a gentle means of revealing knotted realities." This flash collection, as Sara Lippmann writes, "blends the personal with the fantastical to forge...[a] remarkable mythology." "These stories," writes Robert Vaughan, "are convincing, touching portraits of the marginalized. This collection is among the most densely imagined, ingeniously constructed and finely mature works of fiction." 
 Christopher Allen's short fiction has garnered acclaim from Glimmer Train, SmokeLong Quarterly, Literal Latte, Indiana Review, and others. He is also the author of Conversations with S. Teri O'Type (a Satire) and is currently the managing editor of SmokeLong Quarterly. Originally from Tennessee, he now lives somewhere in Europe. Find him online at www.imustbeoff.com.

Justice for some will not always be justice for all.Who is not familiar with the American Dream? Several decades ago and even at present, people from all over the world envision themselves setting foot in the United States of America--a super power nation, "the land of the free, and the home of the brave." But how can one chase the national ethos of the United States, which promises freedom and a promise of prosperity and success when evil rules?In 1984 a spaceship carrying Myanmar, a red-eyed alien fighter, crashed into the Gulf of Mexico. He brought havoc in the world, annihilating everything that came his way. The United States Army tried to stop him, but before succeeding, Myanmar left his sons to his father, Gozaren, on Earth, then flew off in space. Soon the Army rebuilt itself, recruiting more Americans it needed and Myanmar's sons, Gozer and Malhavco, join the Armed Forces. Little does the US Government realize the imminent downfall of its nation, when selfish, inhumane people corroborate with those who want to destroy the American Dream and let the people pay the price.
