The Bookworm Box is proud to present ONE MORE STEP, an exciting and unique reading experience. Each of the twenty-six authors featured in this anthology were given the same first sentence. Where they took that first sentence was completely up to them. Every story is different. No story is related. demeaner The only thing these stories have in common is their starting point. Each author showcased in this anthology was featured in The Bookworm Box charity during 2019. Each author has graciously donated their story so that 100% of profits from this anthology will be going to all the various charities The Bookworm Box is able to support because of you, the readers. Good deeds, great reads. A NOTE FROM COLLEEN HOOVER When I first started this charity with my sisters Lin Reynolds and Murphy Rae, we had no idea how far it would really go. The little purple boxes we were packing in our living rooms eventually turned into a bookstore, an annual convention and now an anthology. We owe a huge thank you to every person who has supported our charity, whether you’re new to us or you’ve been with us since day one. With your help and with your purchase of this anthology, we have been able to distribute well over a million dollars to hundreds of various charities. The idea for this anthology came to me in 2015, before the charity had a team of people who could follow through with the necessary steps it would take to pull it off. Now that The Bookworm Box is staffed by people who are passionate about books and charity, we were finally able to put our heads together and bring this idea to fruition. What’s unique about this anthology is that each author was given the same first sentence. It was up to me to create the first sentence. I didn’t think it would be that hard, but once I put pen to paper, I realized I didn’t know how each author would want to tell their story. I tend to write primarily using first person present tense, but not every author does. It was a challenge to create a sentence that could then be turned into any tense, but once we had the sentence, the authors ran with it. And they ran in MANY different directions. It was fascinating to see how one simple, short sentence could be turned into so many different things. The authors who contributed to this anthology are some of the authors who were featured in our subscription boxes in 2019. We would love for this to become an annual tradition to showcase our contributors each year in different ways, while raising money for charity. A huge thank you to each author who contributed their time and effort by donating a short story to our first Bookworm Box anthology. And a huge thank you to The Bookworm Box team for organizing this and getting it out into the world. We hope you enjoy! Sincerely, Colleen Hoover Good Deeds, Great Reads A MEET CUTE AND OTHER NATURAL DISASTERS EMMA SCOTT PROLOGUE “ONE MORE STEP would mean certain death.” Asher, sitting beside me, snorted into his beer. “Please excuse Faith,” he said to our guests. “As I’m sure you’re aware, she has a slight tendency to exaggerate.” I gave him a dark look but couldn’t conceal my smile. Asher Mackey’s ridiculous excess of charm and extreme hotness—especially that night, dressed up in a dark button-down and slacks—made it impossible to stay irritated with him. That’s love for you, I thought, warmth flooding me. Turns you into a sap. Asher was sitting on the lush carpet with his back to my chair, his long legs stretched out in front of him. He glanced up at me, and his dark eyes read the thoughts in mine. His own glance mellowed to something warm and soft. For me. I wasn’t used to having a man look at me with his heart and soul naked and alight in his eyes. My pulse kicked up a notch every time he did it. Which was frequently. My ex-fake-fiancé-turned-BFF, Silas Marsh, (long story) and his husband, Max, exchanged knowing smiles from their side of the living room in my Queen Anne condo in Seattle. The city skyline rose up behind them through my bay windows, glittering in the gray light of dusk. “Anyway,” I said. “I am not exaggerating. That hike was no picnic. There were many drop-offs where one wrong step would most certainly plummet the unwary hiker to her doom.” Asher smirked. “It’s not that bad a hike. Unless you’re danger-prone and not wearing proper footwear.” He coughed into his fist. I fixed my man with a hot look. “Who is telling this story? You or me?” “It’s how we met,” Asher said. “I’m allowed some input. Otherwise, you’re likely to say that a dinosaur popped out of the ferns, or that you saw Big Foot.” I ignored him and sipped my wine. “Speaking of dinosaurs, this hike was one where they filmed Jurassic Park. Despite my mishap, I still maintain it’s one of the most beautiful spots on earth.” Asher smiled appreciatively. He loved it when anyone said something complimentary about his adopted home, Hawaii. “And it’s where I met this big lug,” I said, leaning down to kiss him on his stubbly cheek. “That helps.” Asher’s hand slid up to my calf. “That makes it my favorite place on earth.” Damn him. I wasn’t a fan of things like “emotions” and “feelings” and “being vulnerable to another person because you love them so much you can hardly see straight.” But here I was. Silas, ever impatient, shifted on the couch beside Max. “Well? Did you plummet to your doom or not?” Sweet Max—dark-haired to Silas’s gold; compassionate to Silas’s grouchy—chuckled and sipped his seltzer water. “I’m going to guess no.” I huffed. “Obviously not. Now all of you hush up and let me tell you what happened.” ONE I’VE ALWAYS HATED mud. Unless I’m paying someone to smear it on my skin in an expensive spa while soaking in a hot bath while essential oils lace the New Age-music- laden air, no thank you. Now, my legs were covered to the knees, and my cute pre-Hawaii pedicure was ruined. Mud squelched between my toes, and I cursed the makers of the sandals I was wearing. “All-terrain, my ass.” All along this two-mile hike through one of Kauai’s lush forests, I’d spent more time slipping and sliding while climbing over rocks and tree roots than I had enjoying the scenery and finding my inner peace.

The most expensive and highly renowned restaurants in the western world are predominantly French whereas, historically, Ireland has not traditionally associated with dining excellence. However, in 2011, the editor of Le Guide du Routard, Pierre Josse, noted that ‗the Irish dining experience is now as good, if not better, than anywhere in the world.‘ Nonetheless, Josse reminds us that ‗thirty years ago, when we first started the Irish edition, the food here was a disaster.

  • Broken Order
    Broken Order Shapeshifting as Social Metaphor in Early Medieval England and Ireland Gwendolyne Knight Academic dissertation for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History at Stockholm University to be publicly defended on Friday 18 January 2019 at 10.00 in hörsal 7, hus D, Universitetsvägen 10 D. Abstract Shapeshifting narratives appear in cultures all over the world, throughout human history. At each point, these narratives give expression to culturally contingent anxieties and preoccupations. This study examines shapeshifting narratives in early medieval England and Ireland in order to uncover what preoccupations informed the meaning of 'shapeshifting', and also what social functions these shapeshifting narratives could serve. It begins with a lexical analysis of the verbs and nouns most associated with shapeshifting narratives; then, it examines shapeshifting narratives on the one hand, and comparisons between humans and animals on the other; finally, the study turns to the sociocultural role of shapeshifting narratives. It demonstrates that, although shapeshifting manifests differently in English and Irish contexts, the importance of performance, in particular the proper performance of in-group behaviour, is a consistent theme between them. Often, shapeshifting narratives visually confirm or demonstrate changes that have already taken place. Although the transformation of a human into something else would appear to break the natural order, such a wondrous disruption ultimately reveals divine power, and reinforces the divine order.

  • Declan Horgan FULL
    BIOGRAPHY FOR DECLAN HORGAN Declan Horgan is one of the most talented chefs in the culinary scene and is well on his way to becoming a household name in the 2020 decade. The 44 year-old Ireland native would begin falling in love with food at an early age, but his career officially began while studying culinary innovation and food product development while attending the DIT School of Culinary Arts and Food Technology in Dublin. By the late 1990s into the early 2000s, Declan had become a Chef De Partie at Dublin’s most illustrious restaurants, one of which was Michelin-Star restaurant, Peacock Alley, where he began to fine-tune his skillset. In the mid-2000s he worked at La Grande Cascade which he was able to show his wide range from traditional French dishes to large-scale menus with Irish charm. He then moved onward to Mint and later to yet again another Michelin-Star Winning restaurant; Chapter One by Ross Lewis. In 2013, Declan became the Restaurant Chef at Fadestreet Social by Dylan McGrath. Learning about homegrown produce and the perfect menu design not only led him to an Executive Head Chef position at an Irish restaurant in Virginia, but it also led him to the United States for the first time in his career in 2015. By 2017, his skills & talent opened yet another opportunity for him as he was offered the position as Executive Chef at an elite restaurant in his new home town of Washington DC, at the Wharf. This is where he cooked for the capitol’s citizens and even Michelle Obama, who ordered Declan’s renowned fish and chips.

  • Discriminating Palates: Evaluation and Inequality in American Fine Dining
    Discriminating Palates: Evaluation and Inequality in American Fine Dining By Gillian Denise Gualtieri A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Raka Ray, Co-Chair Professor Heather Haveman, Co-Chair Professor G. Cristina Mora Professor Ming Leung Summer 2018 ©2018 Gillian Denise Gualtieri ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 1 Abstract Discriminating Palates: Evaluation and Inequality in American Fine Dining by Gillian Denise Gualtieri Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Berkeley Professor Raka Ray, Co-Chair Professor Heather Haveman, Co-Chair How are cultural fields organized? How do producers make sense of their products’ value in a cultural field informed by structures of both art and commerce? How are categorization and evaluation related in cultural fields? How do these processes relate to broader systems of social inequality, such as those based on race, class and gender? In this dissertation, I analyze 120 in-depth interviews with critically recognized chefs and 1380 Michelin Guide restaurant reviews in New York City and the San Francisco Bay Area to examine the relationship between ethnoracial and gender inequality and cultural production in the context of American fine dining. I find that the system of ethnoracial categorization that defines the boundaries between restaurants and chefs in the field of American fine dining interacts with a system of three logics of evaluation that have different meanings and relevance to the assessment of distinct categories of cuisine in the field. This differential evaluation of different categories of cultural products and cultural producers then reproduces gender and ethnoracial hierarchies of culinary, artistic, and material value.
