The National Pastime is the annual review of baseball historical research and regional topics published by the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR). Each year the publication focuses on the history of baseball in a different region or city, following the annual SABR convention from one major league territory to another. The 2018 volume focuses on Pittsburgh, home to some truly significant episodes in baseball history, being not only the home to the great Negro Leagues teams the Homestead Grays and Pittsburgh Crawfords, but to a major league team who came by their name honestly--no pun intended--for what others called the "piratical" practice of poaching players. The articles in the volume are arranged chronologically, starting from the opening of Forbes Field in 1909 and carrying through to a story of the annual fan gathering each October at the section of Forbes Field wall that still stands today. Fane re-live the magic of Game Seven of the 1960 Wold Series on the very spot where Bill Mazeroski's home run flew over the wall. The articles feature not only the hall-of-fame players Honus Wagner, Josh Gibson, Roberto Clemente, and Willie Stargell, but some lesser remembered figures like Guy Bush, Roy Face, Sam Bankhead, and Carlos Bernier. The tales of Honus Wagner running for sheriff, Moses YellowHorse learning bad habits from Rabbit Maranville, and Pirates player Mudcat Grant's quest to sing the National Anthem are told alongside articles detailing Pittsburgh-related baseball litigation, Pirates appearances in the movies, and amateur baseball contests that produced several major leaguers.

SABR 50 at 50 celebrates and highlights the Society for American Baseball Research’s wide-ranging contributions to baseball history. Established in 1971 in Cooperstown, New York, SABR has sought to foster and disseminate the research of baseball—with groundbreaking work from statisticians, historians, and independent researchers—and has published dozens of articles with far-reaching and long-lasting impact on the game. Among its current membership are many Major and Minor League Baseball officials, broadcasters, and writers as well as numerous former players. The diversity of SABR members’ interests is reflected in this fiftieth-anniversary volume—from baseball and the arts to statistical analysis to the Deadball Era to women in baseball. SABR 50 at 50 includes the most important and influential research published by members across a multitude of topics, including the sabermetric work of Dick Cramer, Pete Palmer, and Bill James, along with Jerry Malloy on the Negro Leagues, Keith Olbermann on why the shortstop position is number 6, John Thorn and Jules Tygiel on the untold story behind Jackie Robinson’s signing with the Dodgers, and Gai Berlage on the Colorado Silver Bullets women’s team in the 1990s. To provide history and context, each notable research article is accompanied by a short introduction. As SABR celebrates fifty years this collection gathers the organization’s most notable research and baseball history for the serious baseball reader.    

Editor Cecilia Tan and Circlet Press are once again pushing the genre of crotica into new territory with this anthology that explores erotic connections far beyond the mere physical. Using Circlet's trademark combination of the erotic with the fantastic, Mind & Body brings together stories of telepaths, psychic connections, and extra-sensory perceptions.

A lonely shopkeeper checks the "psychic personals" and finds a startling empathy with an upstate shut in. A pair of investigators with a secret connection find themselves in a dangerous situation. Mysterious dreams lead a single woman to her real life soul mate. In each story, lust goes much more than skin deep and erotic communication takes place beyond words.

Following on the popularity of the previous two volumes in the series, Wired Hard 3 brings together twelve stories that are both steamy and stimulating to the imagination. Exploring masculinity and the desire of men for men through the lens of otherworldly settings and characters, these authors create hot sexual fiction that goes beyond the formula found in gay men's magazines.

The stories run the gamut from humorous to dark-edged, from fairy tale to space opera, but each one seeks to satisfy both the imagination and the libido.

A woman performs S/M on stage in a future where all sensual pain must be faked. A man searches for a secret sex "speakeasy" in a high tech city. An assassin finds herself irresistibly attracted to her victim. An artist's model poses in a world where erotic expression is taboo. A catastrophe releases the inhibitions of the people to do more than riot and loot. Taking its title from 1984, George Orwell's dystopian novel, Sexcrime explores the erotic heat and intensity that can come from love under repressive conditions. In thirteen futuristic stories, erotica authors and science fiction writers (including Jean Stine and Simon Sheppard) celebrate the ways in which underground love and subversive sex can flourish through the intimacy of secrets, the thrill of transgression, the sweetness of forbidden pleasures.

Erotica by queer women for women that explores the real meaning of the word "fantasy" with goddesses, faraway worlds, and magic.

Daron's Guitar Chronicles: Omnibus Edition collects chapters 1-201 of the popular web serial (volumes 1-3 in ebook form), and includes some special bonus material. DGC tells the story of Daron Marks, a young guitarist trying to make it in the 1980s. It's a tale of "sex, drugs, and rock and roll" set at the height of AIDS hysteria, the era of "Just Say No (to drugs)," and when corporations kept a tight rein on musical genres and styles, before the "alternative rock" revolution. Daron is gay and is fighting internalized homophobia as well as resistance from the mainstream. After leaving home on a music scholarship, then leaving music school for the club stages of Boston, can Daron find the acceptance and love he needs, and the fame he wants? The omnibus paperback is over 300 pages of rock and roll diary, covering Daron's adventures from 1986 through spring 1989. Also included are a "bonus" article from the website (a feature magazine interview with the band), and two "scrapbook" pages of clippings never before seen by web readers and available only in the paperback.

Awarded honorable mention in both the Rainbow Awards and the NLA: International Writing Awards for BDSM fiction In war, sex is the most potent weapon. The kingdom is threatened by the marauding attacks from neighboring nations, and by treachery within the castle walls. Our two heroes have been thrust into a dangerous world, as Jorin has been slave-bonded to a powerful mage and Kenet has become magically bound to the general of the army. After a magical attack that scatters the army, General Roichal flees with Kenet on horseback, while Sergetten and Jorin begin the search for the missing prince. Only together can they root out the evil that threatens the crown and bring this story to a just end. Volume Two of The Prince's Boy collects the second and final year of this original web serial by Cecilia Tan, from chapters 57 to the end. Drawing on complex themes of dominance and submission, the need for secrecy in a world where homosexuality is not accepted, and the intertwining of sex with magic, Tan weaves a multi-layered, sex-filled adventure that is part the Three Musketeers of Dumas and part Anne Rice's The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty. Cecilia Tan is "simply one of the most important writers, editors, and innovators in contemporary American erotic literature," according to Susie Bright. She is the author of many novels and short stories, editor of dozens of erotic short story anthologies, and the founder of Circlet Press. She was inducted into the Saints and Sinners Hall of Fame for GLBT writers in 2010.
