SHOUT OUT! to Laura Stamps, Pet Advocate
It’s not every day that I shout out someone’s birthday, but here we are. Laura Stamps, who I consider the ultimate pet advocate, and fun-loving poet and writer, has reached a new year! As some of you may know, she is a cat mom, specializing in helping rescue cats. She has a senior feline household and loves them up on the regular.
I also happen to know that she is a dog person, as well. And she celebrates this with her advocacy work.
I met Laura through her doggie books where she shares stories with prose poetry. If you want to find humor in your life, I highly recommend Laura’s books. Full disclosure: we have published three of Laura’s books but have read more. They are addictive. They are family friendly. They are educational and entertaining, all in one.
Here is Laura’s latest creation and you may want to grab a copy for your favorite person. Laura will even autograph a copy for you.

Author Talk with Nancy Kricorian
In vivid, poetic prose Nancy Kricorian’s THE BURNING HEART OF THE WORLD tells the story of a Beirut Armenian family before, during, and after the Lebanese Civil War. Returning to the fabular tone of ZABELLE, her popular first novel, Kricorian conjures up the lost worlds and intergenerational traumas that haunt a family in permanent exile. Leavened with humor and imbued with the timelessness of a folktale, THE BURNING HEART OF THE WORLD is a sweeping saga that takes readers on an epic journey from the mountains of Cilicia to contemporary New York City.
“Like colorful miniatures—from a childhood of elders haunted by the Armenian genocide to girlhood and adolescence amidst war in Beirut, to marriage and children in New York at the time of 9/11—Nancy Kricorian finds just the right scale to bring her heroine’s passage to vivid, reverberating life.”
—Aram Saroyan
“An arrestingly beautiful novel of how families draw us together but also push us apart. Set amidst the backdrop of displacement and war, THE BURNING HEART OF THE WORLD illuminates how we carry history deep into even the most forgotten corners of ourselves. Once you start reading about Vera and her family you won’t be able to put this book down.”
—Marie Myung-Ok Lee, Author of The Evening Hero
