Sh*t Rough Drafts
Sh*t Rough Drafts collects imagined misguided early drafts of classic books, screenplays, and contemporary literature, creating visions of alternate works that would exist had the authors not come to their senses. What if F. Scott Fitzgerald had gone with the title The Coolest Gatsby? How would The Hunger Games change if Peeta were armed only with blueberry muffins?

Harry Potter, MacBeth, Jaws, The Lord of the Rings, Moby Dick, and many more are each presented as if they were the actual typed or handwritten pages by the authors themselves, revealing the funny and frightful works they might have been with a little less capable judgment.
The Memoir Project
An extraordinary "practical resource for beginners" looking to write their own memoir—now new and revised (Kirkus Reviews)! The greatest story you could write is one you've experienced yourself. Knowing where to start is the hardest part, but it just got a little easier with this essential guidebook for anyone wanting to write a memoir.

Through the use of disarmingly frank, but wildly fun tactics that offer you simple and effective guidelines that work, you can stop treading water in writing exercises or hiding behind writer's block. Previously self-published under the title, Writing What You Know: Raelia, this book has found an enthusiastic audience that now writes with intent.

"Most upper-elementary, middle, and secondary students talk to perform right answers in math class, meaning most older students hardly talk at all in math class and don't learn much math because we talk to learn. In Rough Draft Math, Amanda Jansen shares the power of infusing math class with the spirit of revision. She shares the work she and teacher-collaborators have done to teach students how to share their rough ideas, knowing they can change them later"--
