Synopsis Those Who Pretend by : Dag Heward-Mills

There are many things that do not look like disloyalty but are disloyalty. They are the attitudes and behaviour patterns that give rise to treachery and disloyalty. It is important to know about these things because they are often the predecessors of serious leadership crises. Satan causes confusion in the house of the Lord and uses it to stir up disloyal elements in the church. Many people use pretence, familiarity and their power of intimidation to be disloyal.

Synopsis The Sheik's Pretend Finacee by : Elizabeth Lennox

He was the enemy. The one man Angela should despise on principle alone. And yet… one forbidden, toe-curling kiss later, everything changed. Okay, there was a little conversation, a lot of laughter, and oh, right—a murder. With the sharp end of her comb. Now, thanks to a "romantic" video clip of them, minus the comb incident, Angela has a brand-new fake fiancé: none other than Sheik Tiro el Maistri of Ginisia, her country’s sworn enemy. To calm the media frenzy, they’ll pretend to be madly in love, engage in staged courtship, and eventually “break up” with as much drama as their nations require. Easy, right? Except… that kiss quickly escalated. Days (and nights) with Tiro turned steamy, with touches and glances that were definitely not part of the plan. When this is all over, they're supposed to go their separate ways. But what if Angela doesn’t want to end it? And what if Tiro is ready to make their engagement a lot less fake? Also, who exactly got murdered with Angela’s comb, and why does that mystery keep following her?

Synopsis Pretend We Live Here by : Genevieve Katherine Hudson

In her debut collection of stories, Pretend We Live Here, Genevieve Hudson explores the idea of home and what it means to find one: in the body, in the world, in other people. Her characters are seekers, whose actions are influenced by their slippery identities and by the strange landscapes that surround them. In "Boy Box," a young woman yearns to test her luck with a wild punk girl crush. In "God Hospital," a character journeys deep into the woods of Alabama in search of an infamous religious healer, hoping he can fix her teeth. In "Adorno," someone in need of forgiveness crosses paths with a band of radical vegan activists and gets subsumed into their world. In "Dance!," a recluse writes a breakthrough song for her pink dolphin, but the song's success only drives her further away from society. Set in Amsterdam, the Pacific Northwest, and the Deep South, these stories hum with sexual tension, queerness, displacement, longing, humor, and dark nostalgia. "A terrific collection of stories. There are echoes here of Flannery O'Connor, Barry Hannah, and Denis Johnson, but Genevieve Hudson is her own writer--impressively and gloriously so. Her eye for the clinching detail is unnerving and her sympathies are fascinatingly conflicted. I hope, and suspect, this book will be the start of a long and inspiring career." -Tom Bissell, author of The Disaster Artist and Magic Hours "In Pretend We Live Here, characters bleed and breathe with a caustic energy that dares the reader to keep pace as they are taken from the Deep South to Western Europe and back again. Genevieve Hudson is a new, coming-of-age voice that spotlights rural America, injecting it with a queer freshness that makes her writing impossible to forget." -Jing-Jing Lee, author of How We Disappeared Genevieve Hudson is also the author of A Little in Love with Everyone (Fiction Advocate, 2018), a book on Alison Bechdel's Fun Home. Her writing has been published in Catapult, Hobart, Tin House online, Joyland, Vol.1 Brooklyn, Split Lip, The Collagist, No Tokens, Bitch, The Rumpus, and other places. Her work has been supported by the Fulbright Program and artist residencies at the Dickinson House, Caldera Arts, and the Vermont Studio Center. She received an MFA in Creative Writing from Portland State University, where she occasionally teaches Fiction Writing and Gender Studies courses. She lives in Amsterdam.
