Villains Club: A Delightfully Devious Anthology
Welcome to The Villain's Club!
Here, chaos is mandatory, caffeine is non-negotiable, and every meeting starts with a complaint about heroes who get in their way.
Inside this delightfully devious anthology, villains finally get their own POV. That means no oversight, no interruptions, just pure, unfiltered rebellion.
On the surface, these villains may seem like ordinary scoundrels, delinquents, bandits, and baddies. Scratch the surface (preferably with a dagger-shaped, impeccably manicured pinky nail), and you'll find all the complexities, contradictions, impossible choices, and longing for connection that make even villains human. You'll get to know misunderstood monsters, overworked overlords, demons with major Inhuman Resources issues, and even a few villains who might actually be heroes (but we didn't have the heart to tell them).
There are no tidy lessons or shiny trophies here. Sometimes we're the hero, sometimes the villain.
And sometimes, it just feels good to be bad.
So grab a chair, pour something bubbly, and settle in.

Call I Almost Missed: 365 Days Without a Cell Phone and What It Taught Me About Love, Presence, and the Lies We Live
Tommy Short never missed a call. But he almost missed himself.
In 2023, Tommy Short, keynote speaker and author, gave up his phone for a year.
He discovered that he wasn't just addicted to the device; he was addicted to the identity it allowed him to curate. To being in control. To the dopamine drips of notifications and likes.
To the illusion that he was important.
Tommy thought losing his phone would be the hard part.
He was wrong.
Told through a series of intimate letters to his two young daughters, The Call I Almost Missed is part memoir, part manifesto. In this deeply personal exploration of identity, fatherhood, marriage, faith, and the sacredness of slowing down, Tommy invites you into the year that remade him.
Poetic, piercing, and profoundly human, The Call I Almost Missed isn't about giving up your phone. It's about reclaiming your soul.

Tunnel of Hope: Living, healing, and creating meaning when the body breaks
The Tunnel of Hope is a reflective, embodied narrative about what happens when life collapses - and continues anyway.
Written in the aftermath of a life-altering diagnosis, the book traces a deeply human journey through illness, burnout, identity loss, and unexpected renewal. Drawing on lived experiences from hospitals, therapy rooms, basketball courts, classrooms, and moments of stillness, Florent Coudyser explores what it means to live when certainty disappears and the body becomes unfamiliar territory.
This is not a book about fighting or conquering. It is about listening. Adapting. And discovering a quieter, more truthful form of hope - one that does not promise outcomes, but allows movement where everything once felt stuck.
Blending personal storytelling with philosophical reflection, somatic insight, and gentle humour, The Tunnel of Hope speaks to readers navigating transition, grief, exhaustion, or profound change. It offers no formulas, no answers to memorise - only companionship. A bench inside the tunnel where the reader is invited to pause, breathe, and continue in their own way.
