<p>There You Feel Free is the story of five people whom you might call hipsters. The Kid struggles to put his life together after his relationship, and the economy, falls apart. Cheyenne tries to define herself against the members of her kickball team. Doug faces isolation amid his long list of online friends. Paul attends a support group for struggling geniuses. And Nick battles the sinister feeling that life isn’t going as planned. They all cross paths inside and outside a poem: a loving rewrite of T.S. Eliot’s The Waste Land refinished with contemporary references to indie music and pop culture. Packed with laughter, levity, reflection, and revolution, There You Feel Free captures the intricate quandary of the Millennial Generation.</p>

"If you enjoyed Orwell’s 1984, Huxley’s Brave New World, or even Pixar’s Wall-e there is something for you in Nate Ragolia’s The Retroactivist. ... a tribute to what Indie Authors have to offer." - JOSH JONES, Introvert Press It’s 2087. Mankind has eradicated war, poverty, and jobs. Robots now perform all work. Humans live free to strive for pure happiness and aesthetic perfection. Everyone except for Reid Rosales. Unhappy with joy, unfulfilled by satisfaction, in the throes of a creative slump, Reid longs for something –anything– to help him rise above the easy pleasures of humanity’s perfected society. Reid thinks he’s the only one, until he stumbles on Club 20c, a twentieth-century nostalgia club. There he finds his calling in the long-lost virtues of a harder life… but at what cost?

Launched in January of 2016, BONED is an online literary collection with a single unifying theme: skeletons. This theme touches something that's deeply embedded in all of us: Bones are our past, and also our future. Bones represent death as well as immortality, mixed with regrets about the pleasures and beauty of the flesh.With 52 original short stories, poems, essays, and scripts by 29 writers, BONED Every Which Way will take you into the depths of horror, to strange futures, through contemplations of the human spirit, and leave you in stitches. In short, there’s something for everyone in BONED.“We started this project with the ambitious and silly idea that skeletons could inspire an infinite amount of writing. Turns out, it worked even better than we could have imagined. I’ve had the honor of editing deep, introspective poetry, hilarious scripts, and haunting stories. And I found a little inspiration myself.” - Nate Ragolia, editor-in-chiefSPACEBOY TO THE RESCUE: Profits from sales of this book will benefit the Bone Marrow Foundation. https://bonemarrow.orgBONED Every Which Way 2016 includes writing from Ruby Begonia, Brian Dickson, Simon Edgett, Stephanie Escobar, Kirsten Ferguson, Race Garber, Alex Grady, Shaunn Grulkowski, Mimi Hayes, Ashley Heaton, Jared Horney, Jon-Barrett Ingels, Pam Jones, Amanda Christie Leiss, Jennifer Moore, Dean Moses, Michael J.
