David Tosh Learn to pick Antiques like a pro with the Picker’s Guide, a handy how-to field guide that explains the ins and outs of one of the fastest growing – and lucrative – segments of the Antiques and Collectibles field: comic books. This guide will show pickers where to pick the good, better, and best comic books for their own collection – no matter what their collecting level – as well as show how they can sell comics for the best money possible. Despite the availability of comic books, condition, composition, message, and era all play a factor in their collectability and value. All of these factors can be highly nuanced and this book aims to show pickers how to understand what collectors look for. Turn your passion into profit with easy-to-use secrets of the picking trade. 9781440244988 203 mm x 102 mm | 208 pages £9.99 13-Nov-15 Krause Publications World

Acrylic Color Explorations Chris Cozen Painting Out Loud is as inspirational as it is instructional. Chris Cozen, co-author of Acrylic Solutions, offers a basic understanding of color and pigments, to guide the reader in her personal exploration of color. Through a series of color-stretching exercises, the reader will be gently pushed beyond the expected Red-Yellow-Blue understanding of the color wheel by exploring the work of several artists who work “out loud” with color in unique and interesting ways. Chris demonstrates that colors have voices and that they speak freely with each other—sometimes in complete harmony and other times in discord. Sometimes the conversations are quiet and subtle while at other times they are like the lively crowds at a sporting event. Determining when to introduce a calming color voice or turn the color volume up is a skill that can be developed through practice and intention and the reader will learn how to do both. 9781440340772 276 mm x 210 mm | 144 pages £19.99 25-Dec-15 North Light Books World

Beading & Jewellery Fine Art Wire Weaving
Sensational Soutache Jewelry Making
Sarah Thompson
Csilla Papp
Wire jewelry has never been more popular - but you’ve never seen projects like this before! In Fine Art Wire Weaving, award-winning author Sarah Thompson shares her secrets to creating wire jewelry that’s nothing short of spectacular. Using super-fine wires to create 20 delicate, sophisticated pieces, you’ll achieve that “wow” factor, all under the guidance of an expert jewelry teacher. You’ll learn how to work with these fine wires successfully, as well as what to do when one of your projects goes awry. Using techniques in layering, symmetry, and dimensional shaping, you’ll come away with a strong foundation in wire working so you can create your own one-of-a-kind pieces. Paired with beautiful, 4-color photographs, Thompson gives you step-by-step instructions to creating jewelry too pretty to keep for yourself—but that you won’t want to give away!
Soutache is a relatively new technique with a Northern European flair, which looks very intricate and difficult to make, yet is surprisingly achievable. Csilla’s photographed tutorials are beautifully rendered and show every detail from sewing methods to making straps to finishing. Every piece is exquisite and carefully made, stylish and colorful; she begins with simple rings and earrings and guides you through more ornate necklaces and other decorations to add to accessories.

Patchwork & Quilting Country Style Quilting
Sister Sampler Quilts
Lynette Anderson
AnneMarie Chany
Bring the country style into your home with this unique collection of patchwork quilts and gifts from quilt designer, Lynette Anderson. This adorable collection of patchwork projects really captures the essence of country style. Choose from sewing baskets and scissor keeps through to wall quilts and full sized bed quilts, all made with Lynette’s unique talent for colour and pattern. Lynette’s inspiration for her designs comes from nature, her garden and her animals, and all of these are reflected in this new collection of patterns. The designs feature lots of Lynette’s trademark hand embroidery and stitching and make for great portable projects for stitching ‘on the go’. Also includes the basic techniques you will need to make and finish off the projects, from transferring designs onto fabric to binding a finished quilt.
The Sisters’ concept associated with this book will attract sentimentality within the quilt population. It challenges traditional grid layouts for Sampler quilts with these 3 fun designs. The blocks used within the quilts are a great place for beginners and knowledgeable quilters alike to practice and perfect quilting basics, like half-square triangles, flying geese, and hourglass blocks. The fundamentals provided in the tutorials are used in the more complex quilt blocks for each sampler and allow sewists to practice those skills. The use of traditional blocks with modern settings will attract a diverse audience of quilters, it is non-exclusive to only the traditional or modern quilters. Modern traditional quilting is perhaps the best meld of using both modern and traditional techniques to create something fresh and new.

Writing & Fiction Social Media for Writers
How to Be a Freelance Writer
Tee Morris|Pip Ballantine
Zachary Petit
In this book, authors and founders of the One-Stop Writer Shop, Tee Morris and Pip Ballantine, take authors of all experience levels deeper into popular applications of social networking, and introduce new tools that connect not just with other applications but with a community that carries influence and impact. Focusing on best practices and online etiquette, Tee and Pip help authors already set up on social networks but still unsure what to do next, as well as authors looking to start social media initiatives and build a community. This title will also take writers beyond the “fun” aspect of social networking, citing practical and innovative applications, working with editorial calendars, and maximizing online efficiency and time management, setting the foundation for stronger, better online communities centered around authors’ works.
There are books that discuss freelancing in the driest, most straightforward terms—and then there’s How to Be a Freelance Writer, which takes fledging freelancers under its wing and shows them the ropes with practical advice and secrets of the business. Zachary Petit, former managing editor of Writer’s Digest magazine and a seasoned freelancer with over ten years’ experience, shares the innumerable lessons he’s learned from working “in the trenches,” from breaking in and querying to interviewing, maintaining relationships with editors and publishers, and more. The author’s friendly, funny tone and “inside look” approach to the material set this book apart from comparable titles on freelance writing.
