    Georgia Tell

    eBook (Blue Hair Books, Nov. 23, 2017)
    Warren isn't what you'd call "cool." He doesn't have a lot of what you'd call "friends." Or any friends at all, actually. But being a high school outcast doesn't bother Warren much. He has enough fun playing Call of Duty and trolling the most popular girl at school. However, when Kid, a chiseled Greek god of a high school football player, moves into the neighborhood, Warren suddenly finds himself with a social life. Eager to dangle his handsome new acquaintance in front of the popular girl, Warren makes a misstep that jeopardizes his first friendship in years. Kid was his friend, right? Do friends conspire to play practical jokes that trick their whole school into believing a ruse? Do friends have this many rules? Do friends... kiss?
  • Lacks Self-Control: True Stories I Waited Until My Parents Died to Tell

    Roy Sekoff

    Paperback (Big A Books, June 9, 2018)
    If David Sedaris, Chelsea Handler, Larry David, and Caitlin Moran had the unlikeliest orgy in history, the resulting love child might one day write a book like this one.“Although he’s generally agreeable, Roy Sekoff lacks self-control.” Or so proclaimed his kindergarten teacher.Thus pigeonholed, Sekoff spent the next several decades proving her right, gathering many outrageous, sometimes raunchy, occasionally moving, always hilarious stories along the way. From a teenage pilgrimage to a Times Square porn superstore to life-changing experiences with high colonics and psychic readings to his tenure as founding editor of the Huffington Post, Lacks Self-Control is an uproarious testament to his unwavering commitment to overshare.Told with zinging wit and zero propriety, Sekoff’s collection of true tales—caroming between his Miami childhood, overstimulated adolescence, and celebrity-adjacent adulthood—showcases his caustic yet surprisingly sweet sense of humor. Whether he’s describing a youthful encounter with a killer crocodile, an ill-fated attempt to make off with a tissue containing Oprah’s tears, or that time Chevy Chase grabbed his balls at a funeral, Sekoff is a lively, irreverent raconteur whose sharp observations wring laughs out of a ludicrous yet relatable life.“I’ve read worse.” –Larry David “Frank, fearless, and very funny.” –Arianna Huffington “A modern Portnoy’s Complaint, only WAY funnier!” –Jay Roach “Deranged . . . and really funny.” –Adam McKay “Roy Sekoff is living proof that ADHD, OCD, and TMI can be of great value to the betterment of mankind.” –Rob Reiner
