Diary of a Lone Wolf
Diary of a Lone Wolf: From Teen to Twenties is a poignant and unflinchingly honest journey through the formative years of its author, chronicling the tumultuous path from adolescence into adulthood. This personal diary begins at the tender age of 16, navigating through a toxic teenage relationship, and unfolds over the years to reveal a relentless quest for love, marred by moments of self-doubt, substance misuse, and the often painful process of self-discovery. Through its pages, readers are invited into the most private moments of the author's life-experiences that are both uniquely personal and universally relatable. From exhilarating highs to the lowest lows, this book serves as a mirror to the complexities of growing up, the allure and pitfalls of young love, and the profound quest for identity in a world that often feels isolating.

John Kenn Mortensen's Nightmare Factory
Gruesome, spindly figures gather outside a house, then spirit away a dreaming youth, bed and all. The stage is set for 32 skin-crawling poems imagining various children's nightmares, all with sequential illustrations by Danish horror master Mortensen. His eerie visions fade to black at the edges, like a dreamer unable to shift their focus, and inspire delicious terror all by themselves. Similarly, the short poems each evoke a distinct sense of dread for the sleeping imagination to expand upon; together, the words and pictures conjure a nightmarish world tinged with pitch black humor. The sequences splay across double-page spreads, evoking Edward Gorey gone grand scale, and grand guignol. For those of a nervous disposition, read in bright sunlight. For those in search of a nervous disposition, take two before bed.

Otherwhere
REVISED AND ENLARGED EDITION* I wrote Otherwhere: A Field Guide to Nonphysical Reality for the Out-of-Body Traveler in the early 1990s to sum up nearly twenty years of out-of-body adventures that began when I was fifteen years old. These adventures took me into nonphysical realms in which time and space behaved differently, 'quite other' than we normally experience them--hence the name Otherwhere. I explored the locations where our dreams occur and where we find ourselves after death. It took me nearly ten years to find a publisher, but when Otherwhere came out in 2001, it sold well and went into a second printing. The publisher dropped it during the economic downturn of 2008 and for years used copies were much sought after and highly priced. This new revised and enlarged edition contains everything that was in the first, plus five new chapters detailing how I learned to communicate with beings encountered in nonphysical reality using a nonverbal language I call feel/think.
