Step into the world of upscale, highbrow artistic expression. Mingle with the sophisticates as you delve into the deeper implications of the great masterpieces of the world. Stroll down the corridors of the world-famous Koala Museum of Modern Art (KOMA, pronounced "coma"), exploring its many galleries. First the East Wing, then West Wing, followed by the South Wing. Or just wing it. Better yet, read this book and save yourself all that walking. Commentaries appearing in this book were composed by our illustrious Chief Executive Curator, the same individual who brought the original exhibit to life by unearthing an unprecedented number of little-known great masterpieces, each with a common theme: the furry, friendly, mysterious koala. Readers will be amazed to see all the famous works of art into which the iconic koala has insinuated itself. Never been able to figure out why the Mona Lisa smiles? Check out her companion in canvas and you'll understand that enigmatic expression—it's hard to keep a straight face when there's a koala sidling up to you. Ever challenged friends to see what images you can find in an impressionist painting? It will be much more fun to interpret a Monet when there are koalas lurking in the leaves. Fail to see the point of modern art at all? Discover its new purpose as a playground for merry marsupials emerging from pattern and shadow, and learn to look at it in a new way. This lighthearted look at some of the marsupial-pieces of modern art will bring a smile to the face of anyone who has had to endure a boring museum tour, and lighten the spirits of those who enjoy whimsy in artwork.

Short Shorts: Sudden Fiction Crossing the boundaries between poetry and fiction, narration and free verse, these stories refuse to obey formal conventions. Short Shorts: Sudden Fiction, Nancy Margulies' first book of short short stories. The characters range from an old woman rejoicing in her own face in the mirror to a young run-away, planning her nighttime adventures. Humorous, touching, quirky, unpredictable, told by a range of characters, each with their unique style. The book is the result of Margulies joining a writing group who made a commitment to each other. Consider this as an option for you: invite a group of friends who like to write to share a weekly prompt via email or in-person meetings. A word or phrase is offered. Everyone then writes spontaneously — improvisational writing — for a timed period. Three minutes, ten or twelve minutes, occasionally longer. Whatever is written is shared, unedited, or not shared, that is all up to the writer. Feedback is positive: "what I liked, what moved me, what I'd like to hear more of." As you will see in Short Shorts the result can be remarkable.

Review of Book The Devil shows up in a church basement, a repair guy gets to work on a girlbot, a skateboarder freezes mid-air, a prisoner stabbed in a Mexican jail, a tourist loses her identity down an outhouse hole, one memorable night in the slums of Rio, tryouts for a biblical porn movie – these are but a few of the wildly entertaining scenes included in the fifty-eight exceptional stories in the new collection, Animal Husband, by Nancy Margulies. Warning: do not attempt to predict the ending of any of these stories. They will fool you every time. Suggested Use: read one or two each evening before bed to insure bizarre dreams Alternative uses: Give as gifts for no special occasion. Your friends will thank you. Read aloud to amuse your partner or friends. “Animal Husband is filled with stories wild and wacky, quixotic and quirky. They are irreverent and dark, or resolute and buoyant. But mostly they are inventive and poignant, conveying a vision and a voice deeply grounded in the truth of human experience.” - Chip B. Goldstein, EdD Dean, Academic Planning & Administration California Institute of Integral Studies

Visual Mapping is an easy-to-learn, straightforward system for generating and organising any ideas. Using a central image, key words, colours, codes and symbols, the process is both fun and fast. For many the traditional style of writing ideas in a linear fashion, using one colour on a lined piece of paper, is habit. Retraining the brain to draw ideas radiating from a central image takes practice and patience, but the benefits are considerable, particularly for students and teachers who like to see the big picture. This second edition includes full colour maps, explores a range of mapping styles and takes a fresh look at the process of learning. Of great value to teachers, trainers, business professionals and anyone wanting to explore and spice up their creativity.
