Pray with Your Eyes Open by Richard L. Pratt Jr.

Pray with Your Eyes Open by Richard L. Pratt Jr.

Richard Pratt knows the burdens many of us carry because of inadequate prayer lives. He offers clear biblical direction on how to pray more effectively. Pratt tackles head-on the issues that can puzzle us the most. With care and balance he discusses key issues: from fascination with God to honest confession of our deepest needs, from concerns over form and freedom in prayer to questions about body language and fasting.

Paper Roses Cover

Paper Roses Cover

This cover presents a psychologically charged moment rendered as a digital painting that mimics traditional oil on canvas, while actually it's done in Photoshop. The composition is tightly framed on a woman’s torso and hands, deliberately obscuring her identity to emphasize universality and emotional tension rather than individuality. At the center, she tears apart an origami rose — a fragile imitation of love and beauty. The act of ripping the paper represents a quiet violence into an otherwise intimate gesture. Small paper fragments fall, symbolizing the unraveling of illusion, trust, and constructed narratives.

To All the Men Who Dumped Me and Thank You for That

To All the Men Who Dumped Me and Thank You for That

A Breakup Survival Guide for Women Who Deserve Better To All the Men Who Dumped Me (And Thank You for That) is part memoir, part self-help, and part emotional recovery guide. From The Cheapskate and Mr Emotionally Unavailable to Mr Double Life, The Manipulator (Gaslight Guru) and Captain Control Freak, Vicky Langford files her exes into Dumper Files and dissects each breakup with equal parts brutal honesty and wicked humour. But this isn't a revenge book. It's a reframe. Because sometimes being dumped isn't rejection — it's release. An accidental redirection towards a life that fits you better.
