From Here to Never is an old/new book. Originally published in 2006, it went out of print in 2013. This new edition has a redesigned cover and new writing within its pages, yet carries over many of the poems from the original. It also includes essays and former poems reformatted into more of a prose offering.

Jeff Howe coined the word 'Crowdsourcing' in a 2006 article for Wired magazine to describe the way in which the Internet has broken down traditional employer/employee relationships to create vibrant new enterprises that are 'staffed' by informal, often large gatherings of enthusiasts. A few weeks before the article hit the newsstands, a Google search for the word 'Crowdsourcing' returned zero results. One month after the article appeared, the same search returned nearly 500,000 hits. These days anyone and everyone can write book reviews on Amazon, post videos on Youtube, come up with new uses for Google maps or design T-shirts for Threadless. What makes this phenomenon so remarkable is that it is starting to transform the way many companies operate and to change their relationship with their customers: iStockPhoto.com has revolutionised the world of digital photography; Cambrian House is having a profound impact on the way films get made; Second Life has created a vast, profitable business with only a few formal employees but thousands of dedicated contributors. Moreover this revolution is rapidly changing our culture, introducing a consumer democracy that has never existed before. Jeff Howe has now followed up his initial, ground-breaking article with months of research, and the result is a book that will define the next stage of the Internet revolution.

The search is a journey that lasts a lifetime. There are places that feel like that for which we search, but the urge is never totally quieted. And though we can't say with any certainty, we suspect that if we found it, we'd never leave again.

Once a regular yearly destination, the unassuming town of Spindale is now a symbol of deep family roots and its impact upon the author. This book of fiction, poetry and essays conveys meaning which has grown through years of habituation and the resulting sudden endings. In a general sense, it should be very relevant to anyone who has seen their concept of home changed due to circumstances over which they have no control.

There is an indefinable urge to always take a last look. It is difficult to leave what was behind, for it has marked us in some way. Look One Last is my final book of poetry. It succumbs to the urge to take a last look at the journey to where I am now. I am content for what has been and looking forward to what will be. But come, Look One Last with me.

Echoes from the Antechamber is a collection of short stories, poetry and essays. There are a multitude of styles and genres in this book, but they all add up to one thing. The best may be yet to come, but the past has purpose. Don't discard it.

A compilation of ten short stories. Starts with the Subway Series trilogy, which includes the Amazon short, The Train. Other story titles include The Concourse, The Tracks, A Brave New World, The Six O'Clock News, The Box, Uncle Leo's Nose, Waiting for Sherrie, A Forest in Forever and Overheard at the Game.

A second compilation of Jeff Howe's unique poetry, Falling from a Cloud is a complete work, particularly in that Jeff not only wrote the content for it, but he designed the entire book from cover to cover as well. When you pick up the book to read it, you will hold in your hands an easy-to-navigate and orderly presentation that is Jeff's signature statement to lay out methodologies. His poetry tells stories, sings songs, speaks about people and places that are universal in spirit, if not in actuality. Take the journey - you won't be disappointed!

Why does Procter & Gamble repeatedly call on enthusiastic amateurs to solve scientific and technical challenges? How can companies as diverse as iStockphoto and Threadless employ just a handful of people, yet generate millions of dollars in revenue every year?
"Crowdsourcing" is how the power of the many can be leveraged to accomplish feats that were once the responsibility of a specialized few. Jeff Howe reveals that the crowd is more than wise-it's talented, creative, and stunningly productive. It's also a perfect meritocracy, where age, gender, race, education, and job history no longer matter; the quality of the work is all that counts. If you can perform the service, design the product, or solve the problem, you've got the job.
But crowdsourcing has also triggered a dramatic shift in the way work is organized, talent is employed, research is conducted, and products are made and marketed. As the crowd comes to supplant traditional forms of labor, pain and disruption are inevitable, and Howe delves into both the positive and negative consequences of this intriguing phenomenon. Through extensive reporting from the front lines of this workplace revolution, he employs a brilliant array of stories to look at the economic, cultural, business, and political implications of crowdsourcing."

The March of the Turtles finds its theme in death. I had never envisioned doing such a book. I have included death references in some of my prior work, but not to the degree it is written about here. Then again, The March of the Turtles is really a 21-year culmination of my relationship with my wife's father, a man I grew to admire and love as so many around him did. He left us this year, just as I was wondering how to get the book finished. It is dedicated to him: Joe Nanney
