      • Get Fresh Books Publishing

        Get Fresh Books Publishing is a non-profit, cooperative press devoted to amplifying diverse voices in poetry and making the publication process accessible to marginalized communities. Our primary objective is to provide opportunities for underrepresented voices by eliminating economic and societal barriers, such as submission fees and contests, which may inhibit marginalized voices from contributing to the literary conversation. As a cooperative press, we encourage manuscript submissions from BIPOC, LGBTQ+, people with disabilities and people living with mental illnesses. By doing so, we explicitly reject any “ism” or phobia which seeks to suppress the voices of those who receive insufficient or inadequate representation in literature.    In the four short years of our founding, we have been able to preserve our commitment to diversity and inclusivity by publishing the work of 12 talented and distinct poets, whose poetry cover a wide range of topics from ethnicity, sexuality and religion to immigration, suicide and discrimination. Our press’s cooperative process of integrating the ideas and skills of our poets, editors and publisher have given us the ability to bring fresh and diverse voices into the literary world. With the help of donations, grants and private investments, we have been able to publish each literary work without charging a single submission fee to ensure that poets and writers of all ages, ethnicities, sexual orientations, abilities, and economic statuses would have their voices heard.

        Audio Engineering

        for special events techniciansin training and on the job

        by Christoph Grzesinski. Founded by Dr. Volker Smyrek

        We all know that audio engineering is more than just acronyms. But what do they all mean? This practical textbook is designed to meet the special needs of events technicians. The textbook stands out from the crowd because it is designed specifically with the university curriculum and professional needs in mind, making it not only an excellent companion in the classroom, but a useful reference for on the job as well. The author, himself an instructor for special events technicians, covers the ground from physical fundamentals of acoustics and electronics to setting up mixing consoles and sound systems, providing a multitude of useful tips without confusing the reader with extraneous details. A chapter on video technology rounds off the book. Sample calculations put the material in a practical context, and sample problems at the end of each chapter (with solutions in the appendix) help review what has been learned and inspire further thought. Entertaining guest essays provide a broader perspective.

        Die Elf

        by Pierre Michon, Eva Moldenhauer

        Pierre Michon ist einer der bedeutendsten französischen Gegenwartsschriftsteller. Im Mittelpunkt seiner neuen Erzählung »Die Elf«, einer meisterhaft vertrackten historischer Novelle, steht das berühmteste Gemälde der Französischen Revolution, das im Louvre hinter Panzerglas hängt und elf Direktoriumsmitglieder im Jahr II der Schreckensherrschaft porträtiert. Michon erzählt von dem Maler und dessen Familiengeschichte, von den elf Porträtierten und davon, wie und warum der Künstler den Auftrag zu diesem Bild erhielt - evozierend, akribisch, mit essayistischen Bemerkungen und Ausführungen. Dieses besondere Bild, »Die Elf«, schreibt Michon, bilde Geschichte nicht ab, sondern »sei« Geschichte, ihr Schrecken. Seine ebenso knappe wie virtuose Erzählung baut eine ganz eigene Spannung auf und hält sie, bis zum überraschenden Schluß.

        by Paul Maar, Monty Arnold, Superhearo Audio, Paul Maar

        Das Mini-Sams bekommt sein eigenes Abenteuer! In der Sams-Welt gibt es ein gut gehütetes Geheimnis: Ganz weit hinten am Rande der Wiese, auf der die Samse genüsslich auf ihren Kürbissen lümmeln, gibt es eine Felsmauer. Was sich dahiner verbirgt, weiß keiner so genau. Nicht so wichtig, meint das Pauker-Sams. Aber da kennt das Pauker-Sams das Mini-Sams schlecht – und plötzlich ist es weg, spurlos verschwunden. Wie gut, dass das Taschenbier-Sams davon Wind bekommt und noch viel besser, dass Ralfer, der blaue Drache, plötzlich wieder auftaucht. Gemeinsam machen sich die beiden auf die abenteuerliche Suche nach ihrem kleinen Freund.
