Fearless Books comprises several divisions, including its Award-Winning Fearless Poetry Series which is run by Sari Friedman, and it publishes spiritually-themed paperbacks along with e-books in every format, using two digital distributors (Smashwords and Overdrive) to disseminate digital versions of its print books. Two notable titles from Fearless Books include ''The Disappearance of the Universe'' by Gary Renard, a worldwide bestseller, which was later sold to Hay House; and ''TOUCHING: Poems of Love, Longing, and Desire'' (a recipient of two 2011 Next Generation Indie Book Awards prizes: winner of the Anthology category, and Second Place Grand Prize in the Non-Fiction category. The e-book version of TOUCHING: Poems of Love, Longing and Desire won First Prize in the Poetry Division of the Dan Poynter Global E-Book Award. ==Fearless Poetry Series== The Fearless Poetry Series comprises a series of poetry anthologies. The series was launched in 2009, showcasing distinctive and compelling new voices in contemporary poetry. The first volume was ''The Light in Ordinary Things''. ''TOUCHING: Poems of Love, Longing, and Desire'' was the second volume. Volume Three of the Fearless Poetry Series will be called TURNING THE PAGE: Poems of Trauma, Healing and Transcendence. This volume is expected to come out later in 2014. All submissions to the series are evaluated on merit alone—the submissions are read and evaluated by staff without their knowing the poet’s name, race, gender, religion, political affiliation, credentials, or any previous publishing history. Sari Friedman has stated that, by selecting on merit alone, the anthology is free of bias. Friedman started this poetry series to see if anthologizing exceptional contemporary poetry would lead to poetry being more appreciated by the American public. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fearless Books」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
