I’m Tristan Loren aka J.J. aka son of Jackal’s Jack Storm and I have two problems right now—don’t laugh. College is about to begin, and I don’t want to go. Also, I’ve somehow graduated high school a virgin. Tristan Loren is the first to admit he’s lived a privileged life. However, the top schools, the best games and phones and cars, the finest of whatever his heart desired has come with strangers yelling for his attention and camera flashes in his face. Even when his father retires the rock star life and moves the family from L.A., their lives are rarely incognito. His classmates have visions of college life in the fall following senior year, while his fantasy is a normal existence. Whatever normalcy is, he’s sure it’s not graduating with honors--and his virginity. Aside from having a paranoid mom who has made it her mission to see that he’s never alone with a girl, he wants his first time to be with someone who doesn’t know him as Jack Storm-of-the-multi-platinum-Jackal Junior. Chasing the vision of a woman and a world who doesn’t know of him takes him from the sunshiny suburbs of Dallas to the snowy streets of Detroit. Getting his V card swiped and finding his own identity comes with an entirely different price tag. A Shit Storm can stand alone but for fans of Six Silver Strings Series, this novel is the first in the E-String Set and includes scenes with characters from G-Strings and D-Strings with several appearances of Jack and Marissa Storm.

Part yearbook. Part ABC book. All Sh*tstorm. This book takes a look at significant events from the year 2020. Everything in the book actually happened, although much of it does sound made up. Some moments you'll never forget; A Global Pandemic, Trump getting impeached and losing the election. And some moments you probably already forgot; Parasite winning all the Oscars, UFOs being confirmed by the government, and Tiger King. This book may look like it's for children, but it isn't. So let's all remember the year that we're trying to forget!

In The Hundreds Lauren Berlant and Kathleen Stewart speculate on writing, affect, politics, and attention to processes of world-making. The experiment of the one hundred word constraint—each piece is one hundred or multiples of one hundred words long—amplifies the resonance of things that are happening in atmospheres, rhythms of encounter, and scenes that shift the social and conceptual ground. What's an encounter with anything once it's seen as an incitement to composition? What's a concept or a theory if they're no longer seen as a truth effect, but a training in absorption, attention, and framing? The Hundreds includes four indexes in which Andrew Causey, Susan Lepselter, Fred Moten, and Stephen Muecke each respond with their own compositional, conceptual, and formal staging of the worlds of the book.
