The Angels have been commanded to rewrite the story of the Creation, the Universe, and Everything. But how could humans - trapped as they are in their world of inconsequential and ephemeral trivia - be induced to engage with the story? The answer was bold, radical, and innovative: they would be invited to participate in the re-write. To turn this fantastic idea into reality, a Holy Helpdesk was set up to receive communications from any human, regardless of their historical or geographical location. The idea was simple, and perfectly attuned to a world now placing so much value on connecting, communicating, and sharing. What could possibly go wrong? An Angel, chosen to introduce the book, decides to establish some common ground by setting out the realities of the Universe in which humans exist. But as she proceeds, she begins to suspect that comprehending reality, for humans, might not be an option. The Angels on the Holy Helpdesk take up the narrative. They are ready and eager to engage humans in a dialogue. But they immediately find themselves under siege by the mockers, the cynics, the nutters, and the just plain barmy. There are questions about the Apocalypse, war, building your own Ark, bagpipes, over-population, sex, sin, credit cards, heaven, hell, floods, plagues, frogs, road humps, love, Morris dancing, snakes - and many other things besides. At first it seems that the task of rewriting the story of the Creation, the Universe, and Everything, will prove impossible. But the Angels doggedly hold their own, fending off the questioners like experienced batters fending off a succession of demon bowlers. This book will make you laugh, and make you think. It will take you to places you didn't expect to go, and in so doing, reveal that everything you thought you knew was an illusion.
They say you should walk towards the light. Well I didn't. I fled. I ran away from it. I pushed the light back and it splintered in my hands like glass. I thought I might be dead because there was no blood. I raged, I wept. I shouted. There was no pain. I screamed. There was no noise. It wasn't time. It wasn't right. But still, I did not know that I was dead. Still, I hoped that I was not. I wasn't ready... Has it been done before? We don't think so. Dual authorship is one thing, but fifteen authors? That's more like a writing team for a soap opera or a big TV series than a single novel. And who are the Dark Angels? Well, they're not bikers or Goths or heavy metal rockers, but an eclectic bunch of writers who have come together through the Dark Angels creative writing programme. Challenging themselves to come up with ideas for a collective novel, they chose the model of William Faulkner's As I Lay Dying, a novel told from the viewpoint of many characters with each chapter in a different voice. Gathered together in a Scottish country house in the coldest March on record, the Dark Angels started to create the characters to tell a story about a woman who dies in a Scottish country house – and whose family decides to transport her body back to London via a few special, possibly secret-laden locations. What they came up with is a stonking good story. By turns poetic, comic, psychological, philosophical, and moving. Full of secrets and lies, it's an adventure in writing.
Heritage. Adaptation. Values. Flexibility. From the oldest pub in the world to the Liberty Bell and the origins of a nation, Established: Lessons from the World’s Oldest Companies tells the stories of twelve businesses with a combined age of almost 5,000 years. They’ve survived war, plague, rebellion, boom, bust, depression and strange twists of fate. But how and what can we learn from them. Spanning the local and the global, family businesses and household names such as Guinness and Wrigley, Established seeks to uncover the secrets behind the longevity of these twelve remarkable institutions. This is a book with points to make through stories told; all reinforced by photographs, many of them historic. Today the average lifespan of a business seems shorter than ever. The companies included here stand as living testaments to the value of rich, compelling stories in a world of quick-fix branding.

On edge first breath of life, not crying just very happy to breath. That is the only thing I remember. From that point on until I was five years old everything is just drama. Pitiful how life things that happen with no fault to anybody, nobody. You see being next to last born in my family. You will see with me, hear with me, listen and we will smell this thing out together. The Camden Kid.
Emotional Healing with the Angels is an inspired, spiritual guide to healing and 'Self' realization. Dictated by angels to Rekha Vidyarthi, a life-long seeker of spiritual truth, this simple, practical guide explains angelic wisdom and philosophy. Using personal anecdotes, introspection and the intuitive wisdom of the soul, Rekha gives a very personal and moving account of a 10-year spiritual journey. Unknown to her at the time, this quest began as a child when in deep contemplation and query, she innocently asked, "Who is the real God?" Readers will be inspired by Rekha's experience with the angelic realm and the Divine. Her personal stories and those of her clients illustrate how one can overcome life's challenges and find healing, peace and purpose. Emotional Healing with the Angels demonstrates how human souls can be healed of emotional suffering, trauma or spiritual dis-ease. Most importantly, it teaches souls to re-discover the Power of Self and reclaim their rightful heritage: oneness with God.

If you read only one book on business writing, make it this one. Chapters by the twelve partners of the Dark Angels Collective set out a comprehensive approach to writing more effectively for business. For nearly twenty years the Dark Angels programme has been championing the cause of more human, more emotive writing in the business world – because it’s this kind of writing that works, in branding, in copywriting, in writing for design, in annual reports, in all genres and all sectors. The Dark Angels approach is to draw on techniques from fiction, poetry and memoir to tell better stories – stories that connect with readers across all commercial media. The results, endorsed here by many of the most respected writers in the field, are gathered in this book as an indispensable source of inspiration and practical advice. It’s the book that sets the new benchmark for professional writers.
