Make Love the Bruce Campbell Way

Written with the same immense energy, wry humor and Hollywood skewering that filled the bestsellingIf Chins Could Kill, our hero gives his fans a follow-up they could not have expected-a laughout-loud novel starring (who else?) Bruce Campbell I n this autobiographical novel, the King of 'B' movie actors gives his legions of fans the inside view of his hilarious attempt to become an 'A' list actor-taking readers on a wild ride to nail the dream role. In this side-splitting send-up, Bruce imagines that he is cast in the big-budget film 'Let's Make Love,'where he plays a relationship guru/doorman opposite Richard Gere and Renee Zellwegger. Nervous that the star-studded cast will discover he's a grade below, Bruce embarks on a crash-course in method acting, regaling readers with stories of his exploits-including taking jobs as a wedding planner, private investigator, and Waldorf Astoria doorman. Along the way, he throws off tidbits of advice that his fans will find entertaining-but better not follow unless they want to stay single.

Mistakes Were Made (but Not by Me): Why We Justify Foolish Beliefs, Bad Decisions and Hurtful Acts

Why do people dodge responsibility when things fall apart? Why the parade of public figures unable to own up when they make mistakes? Why the endless marital quarrels over who is right? Why can we see hypocrisy in others but not in ourselves? Are we all liars? Or do we really believe the stories we tell? Renowned social psychologists Carol Tavris and Elliot Aronson take a compelling look into how the brain is wired for self-justification. When we make mistakes, we must calm the cognitive dissonance that jars our feelings of self-worth. And so we create fictions that absolve us of responsibility, restoring our belief that we are smart, moral, and right - a belief that often keeps us on a course that is dumb, immoral, and wrong. Backed by years of research and delivered in lively, energetic prose, "Mistakes Were Made (But Not by Me)" offers a fascinating explanation of self-deception - how it works, the harm it can cause, and how we can overcome it.

"By turns entertaining, illuminating and - when you recognise yourself in the stories it tells - mortifying."

Love As A Foreign Language Omnibus Volume 1

Joel hates Korea. Why he agreed to teach there defies his comprehension. He can't wait to return to normal life. His year of teaching is almost over and then he'll finally be free. But Joel's life is about to go from dark dreams to cotton candy kisses and it's all because of Hana. The very sight of this girl sends him flying straight to cloud nine, but won't another year in Korea send him crashing back down?

From the Publisher
IGN:
"J. Torres' script is perfect, capturing the nervous tension present in any budding relationship and expertly adding the cultural differences that just winds Joel even tighter emotionally. Eric Kim's artwork is perfectly suited for the series, possibly one of the best matches of writer to artist in comics. His backgrounds really give the reader a feel for the culture while his character designs, especially Hana, are great. Hana is easily one of the most appealing characters in comics."

Broken Kode:
"J.Torres. He's brilliant, everything he writes I really enjoy."

Read About Comics:
"J. Torres's script for Love as a Foreign Language hits all the right notes... As an added bonus, there's a lot of Torres's trademark humor in Love as a Foreign Language; little zingers like Joel's comment on how Korean foods seems like the end result of a dare had me grinning the whole way through the book."

The Fourth Rail:
"It's clear that Torres put a lot of faith in his artistic collaborator, Eric Kim, and that faith definitely pays off. Kim's artwork is a revelation, definitely in the manga style but with a unique sensibility that sets it apart from the many imitators of that general style these days. Kim's expressive characters are very real and believable, and yet cartoonishly exaggerated at the same time"

The Fourth Rail:
"This is about the natural human desire to fit in, to belong somewhere. It's easy to relate to the main character's sense of being alone in a massive crowd, to his sense of being lost... not physically, but adrift in the sea of his own life. Torres tells a wonderfully personal story that explores the same sort of ideas as Sofia Coppola's much-lauded Lost in Translation, but it's done in a much more overt and accessible way."
