SPLIT
A Double Memoir
Two voices. One shattered past. A truth too powerful to stay silent.
Ella grew up running from shadows, from secrets, from the father she believed led a dangerous cult that was still hunting her.
Jack Tsen, a Taiwanese immigrant, built a life in America, only to watch it collapse under suspicion and silence. Accused during an era where paranoia masqueraded as protection, he lost everything: his reputation, his voice, his family.
Decades later, Ella confronts her greatest terror and decides to meet the man she had been taught to hate.
Told in their dual voices, SPLIT reveals how hysteria shapes memory, how prejudice fractures families, and how love can bridge even the deepest divide.

the bell hooks we knew
A collection of personal stories celebrating the lived life of bell hooks
Anticipated Publication: 2028 | Proposals Due: September 25, 2027
bell hooks changed the way we think. She is quoted near and far. There even is a phone number which will read some of her work aloud to you when called. But this book is not about her inimitable academic legacy. Rather, this is about the moments that don’t show up in lectures and reports.
This is a book on her ideas, but on her humanity. This book is about the way she made people feel. We are gathering personal stories, remembrances, and reflections from those who knew her in quieter moments, when she was not bell hooks, but Gloria Watkins.
Primarily by invitation, though those with a close personal connection to her life and work are warmly encouraged to reach out with a proposal.
She Is Not Gone
