"Pocket Superfoods" is a pocket-size index of all the nutritional information, fun facts, and practical tips readers need to know about the top 50 superfoods, including nuts, berries, avocado, barley, chia seed, lean meat, and broccoli. Author Seana Smith describes in detail why superfoods are the best foods we can eat. She writes, "Some foods are simply more nutritious, better for you, more packed with the good stuff. These are the superfoods. And if we all ate more of those foods, we'd all be healthier, happier, and very probably, wealthier and wiser too.?" Supercharged with antioxidants, vitamins, and essential nutrients, these foods strengthen our bodies and nourish our brains with the vitamins and healthy fats that make us feel satisfied. With tips on buying, storing and cooking these foods in the healthiest way possible, this supercharged book contains all you need to make your life zing with health and vitality. This small book contains a whole lot of easy-to-read information in its compact, inexpensive format. In the convenient style of a reference guide, each page focuses on one type of food, with a description consisting of clear and logical bullet points. Each superfood is introduced with a pithy description including what each food is and where it comes from, followed by a bullet list of why the antioxidant, vitamin-rich, essential-nutrient food makes us healthy and energetic. Key notes at the bottom of each page inform readers about when and how to incorporate the food into our lives and contain tips for preparing it. The who is a given -- superfoods are for everyone. Australian best-selling author Seana Smith is passionate about mental and physical health for families. Having fully embraced the benefits of nutrient-dense eating, she writes to inspire readers to ditch the junk food and enjoy eating fresh and healthy food -- for life. She blogs about food, recipes, life balance, and healthy eating at "Sydney, Kids, Food + Travel" (www.seanasmith.com) and "The Mum's Diet" (www.themumsdiet.com). Seana Smith's accessible approach to a healthy diet is to focus is on the positive - getting you excited about foods, including chocolate, that are good for you instead of telling you what you shouldn't eat. She shows her readers how a healthy diet should involve eating plenty of wholesome, flavorful food that is so satisfying that they won't even notice that they're eating less junk. Feeding your body properly shouldn't leave you feeling deprived, and superfoods also include plenty of treats - dark chocolate and lean red meat are on Seana's list. This attitude makes for a fun, entertaining read and an enjoyable lifestyle as well. These superfoods are exciting! But for the most part the foods in this book aren't mysterious or rare - they aren't over-hyped by marketing teams and sold at inflated prices. They come from all different categories of food - fruits and vegetables are well-represented, of course, but so are meats, grains, and spices - and combined they form entire, delicious, well-balanced meals. And Seana Smith's descriptions will whet your appetite and get you craving the foods that your body truly needs. These foods may be super, but they're also the kinds of things that you can easily find in your local supermarket for a reasonable price - a combination that will make you happy to eat large amounts of these healthy and delicious foods every day. While the book concentrates on superfoods, Seana Smith doesn't suggest limiting one's diet to only these 50 foods, so the book also contains information about other healthy choices and encourages readers to incorporate a wide variety into their diets. Superfoods, Seana Smith explains, are the foods that contain the most nutritional value both in terms of your daily calorie intake and bang for your buck. A side benefit to investing in this book is that after reading Pocket Superfoods you won't spend all your hard earned cash on expensive junk food, or so called "health food" that may not be as good for you as its label claims, or vitamin supplements that are no substitution for the vitamins that occur naturally in superfoods. The book is conveniently sized and accessibly formatted so that you can take it to the grocery store to use as a reference tool - or simply as a shopping list. Pocket Superfoods gives readers all the information they need in the palm of their hands on the 50 best foods to energize our bodies. In her enthusiastic, expert-foodie-next-door style, author Seana Smith informs and inspires readers to become supercharged over these super foods.

Works of art move and inspire us to think in new ways. And their creation is within your reach -- the techniques required to create works of art simply take time, thoughtfulness, and a willingness to experiment. This sequel to Selling's popular "Writing from Within" includes a summary of his basic method which teaches you to write using the subject you know best: yourself. But "Writing from Deeper Within" also contains more advanced techniques that will show you how to expand your personal work into full-length plays, memoirs, screenplays, or novels. Selling gets rid of the mystery behind creating great art, by breaking the process down into easily understood steps. He shares techniques for backstory, creating strong characters, story pacing, exposition, denouement, developing unique voices within the same story, researching and writing family histories, using visual motifs, employing subtext, and separating the author from the main characters. Whether you have been writing for years and want to continue to improve or are just starting out, "Writing from Deeper Within" will help you turn what ever you are writing into a work of art.

The history of the community and people of Greene County, Arkansas.

Everybody has something to say. In an age when Twitter, blogs, and Tumblrs give millions the chance to write whatever is on their minds, it seems that we're finding plenty of avenues in which to share it. How, then, do we write what is worth saying? How do we record our important memories so they'll be remembered? How do we tell our personal stories the way they deserve to be told? In keeping with successful earlier editions of "Writing from Within," Selling has stressed the idea that personal writing is a means to personal understanding. Learning to write well starts with the subjects we know the best--ourselves. To write life stories, writers explore vivid memories and re-engage with the perspectives of their younger selves. They learn to harness their inner critics and deal with fear. They use their creative drive to remember details from their most significant memories. The process of life story writing is as much one of self-discovery as it is one of nostalgia. These emotional connections to memories provide the backbone for Selling's writing instruction. In this 25th anniversary edition of "Writing from Within," the original lessons of life story writing are included and significantly expanded upon. Readers are given guidance on finding their earliest memories and on remembering details vividly. Writing instruction is offered to accompany this process and ensure that readers' life stories are full of clear, accurate memories. The core focus of the book is on unlocking memories and writing them as life stories. However, this Anniversary edition also provides substantial new material on: Story pacing techniques Strategies for subtly adding exposition and denouement Revealing and unraveling character Writing stories within stories Developing unique voices within the same story Researching and writing family histories Expanding life story writing into novels or screenplays Advanced steps like creating visual motifs, employing sub-text, and separating the writer from the central character Draft samples will show readers how their life stories will grow using the Writing from Within method. Excerpts from past students' life stories show the potential of the method. Personal notes to readers keep them on track and their goals in perspective. "Writing from Within: The Next Generation" invites readers to find their voices and helps them along the way to doing so. As much a tool for personal reflection as a guide to writing instruction, the book represents a comprehensive discussion of the creative process. Writers, new and old, will write with more skill, understand themselves and their characters better, and be able to turn their life experiences into art. So, learn to harness your inner critic. Construct your own writing process. Open the door to your past. Give the characters voices. Breathe some life into your story and leave something so future generations can get to know you.
