Thrilling Lit Fiction

In his new novel, Brooke is a young woman living in New York City, working at an aging billionaire's family foundation, yearning to find her purpose.

After her employer enlists her help in deciding how to give away his fortune, she becomes entranced by the power of wealth. Suspenseful and deliciously unsettling, Entitlement examines the seductive pull of money and its ability to warp our perspectives.

Show Biz Story

When Jane agrees to house-sit for a friend for a year and moves her family into his gorgeous Los Angeles home, she's sure it'll inspire her to finally finish her second novel. Then she gets the chance to develop a "biracial comedy" with a big TV producer, so she goes for it. Will this be the thing that leads to the success that's eluded her...or is she selling out? The biting, incisive, and hilarious Colored Television by Danzy Senna skewers Hollywood culture while offering a thoughtful take on how creatives balance making art with making a living.

Go With Your Gut - Each of us has a little voice inside that knows more than the conscious mind. It's called intuition, and it deserves your attention.

Cognitive scientists, who study how human beings think and reason, generally define intuition as knowledge gained without rational thought, and they believe it's a natural part of how our brains work. Humans have two main ways of absorbing information. One is a slow, deliberate process, in which we methodically analyze details for instance, comparing two laptop models before buying. The second happens almost instantly, and the insight feels like it came out of the blue. In fact, though, it's based on data we've gathered subconsciously over time and, in a flash, connected with our past experiences.
