A sick daughter, a father's race against time to find the one thing that might save her and a mysterious tree growing through the kitchen floor...Author Christopher Stanley on writing 'The Forest Is Hungry': "Quite often my stories come from several different places. In this one, the walk at the beginning, where the parents are separated from their child, is a walk I've done a number of times with my own family. My sister moved into a big new house and she told me about some of the conversations she had had with the site foreman. And we have a family friend who cuts our trees for us. All of these things happened around the same time and - bang! - there's the story!"(Cover by Adrian Baldwin)

Published in partnership with SHAPE America, Reach Every Athlete: A Guide to Coaching Players with Hidden Disabilities and Conditions guides coaches in working with athletes with disabilities that are not apparent based on physical features and athletic capabilities. Referred to as hidden disabilities or conditions (HDCs), there are athletes with a Specific Learning Disability (e.g. dyslexia), Autism Spectrum Disorder, and Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), as well sensory and physical impairments that may not be obvious, yet still impact performance. Reach Every Athlete is ideal for coaches at all levels who may knowingly, or unknowingly, have an athlete on their team with an HDC. It helps clarify the core symptoms and impact, as well as provides coaching tips and best practices. This guide is also useful to others invested in maximizing the sport experience for athletes, including parents and caregivers, athletic administrators, coach educators, and sport psychology consultants.

Christopher Stanley's debut flash fiction collection boasts an impressive assortment of characters trying to make sense of a world gone horribly wrong. The darkness here is home to vampires, werewolves, witches and ghosts-but it's the monsters you've never heard of that should worry you the most.
