The content planner : a complete guide to organize and share your ideas online / by Crocker, Angela,author.;
"The Content Planner helps business writers plan, create and publish content to a website. Readers know the importance of publishing frequent, unique content to their blog but they struggle to take action. Some are overwhelmed at the prospect of brainstorming topics to write about let alone writing and publishing the content. Others are unable to organize their ideas into a viable publishing schedule and end up publishing nothing. By using an editorial calendar to plan a month of online content in advance, each business will: save time; build relationships with customers; write more professionally; share content consistent with the brand; better serve their customers and potential customers. The Content Planner provides a structure that focuses each business on the types of content that support their business objectives. The process also formalizes their plans in a "pen on paper" calendar to use as a work plan. By knowing what to write about and when, the writers can take timely action."--

Left fur dead / by Griffin, J. M.;
Juliette "Jules" Bridge prides herself on the tender rehabilitation she provides for injured or abused rabbits on her New Hampshire rescue farm, but she has a very special relationship with one bunny in particular. Bun is a black-and-white rabbit who happens to have the ability to communicate through mental telepathy. Once she got over the shock, Jules found her furry friend had a lot to say. One frigid March morning on their walk together, Bun spots a body. The police identify the frozen stiff as Arthur Freeman, aka Arty the Mime. Jules and Arty knew each other on the children's party circuit, where he'd perform magic tricks and she had an educational rabbit petting pen. With Bun egging her on, Jules decides it's time they hop to it and put their heads together to discover who silenced the mime. But their investigation leads them down a rabbit hole of more suspects and lies, while a killer sets a trap for them...

The last heir to Blackwood Library / by Fox, Hester,author.;
"With the stroke of a pen, twenty-three-year-old Ivy Radcliffe becomes Lady Hayworth, owner of a sprawling estate on the Yorkshire moors. Ivy has never heard of Blackwood Abbey, or of the ancient bloodline from which she's descended. With nothing to keep her in London since losing her brother in the Great War, she warily makes her way to her new home. The abbey is foreboding, the servants reserved and suspicious. But there is a treasure waiting behind locked doors: a magnificent library. Despite cryptic warnings from the staff, Ivy feels irresistibly drawn to its dusty shelves, where familiar works mingle with strange, esoteric texts. And she senses something else in the library too, a presence that seems to have a will of its own. Rumors swirl in the village about the abbey's previous owners, about ghosts and curses, and an enigmatic manuscript at the center of it all. And as events grow more sinister, it will be up to Ivy to uncover the library's mysteries in order to reclaim her own story--before it vanishes forever"--

The Wolf Hall picture book / by Mantel, Hilary,1952-2022,author.; Miles, Ben,photographer.; Miles, George,1970-photographer.; Mantel, Hilary,1952-2022.Wolf Hall trilogy.Selections.;
"A photography book that is a vital accompaniment to the many fans of Hilary Mantel's bestselling Wolf Hall Trilogy. "At the very beginning of the twentieth century, Zola said, 'In my view you cannot claim to have really seen something till you have photographed it.' The act of photographing, at least for a moment, distinguishes its object and estranges it from its context ... Every stroke of the pen releases a thousand pictures inside the writer's head. This book has made some of them visible."--Hilary Mantel. Hilary Mantel, Ben Miles, the stage's celebrated Thomas Cromwell, and his brother, photographer George Miles, spent many years exploring the locations we know Thomas Cromwell visited and inhabited--Putney, Austin Friars, Wolf Hall, the Tower of London--to capture the faint traces of Tudor England and his extraordinary life. Accompanied with extracts from The Wolf Hall Trilogy, some of them published here for the first time, and including a stunning new essay by its author, these photographs reveal a world that is shadowy, frightening, sometimes whimsical--a portrait of a country in conversation with its past"--
