From me and Literary Revelations @LR_Publisher happy Halloween and happy weekend 👻 #HappyHalloween #gabrielamariemilton

#vss365 #start OK… Gabriela, let’s start ‼️‼️‼️ Let’s make Haiku an UNESCO recognized treasure ‼️ Who? Us 🌹 Literary Revelations announces a new anthology – Haiku: A Global Manifesto for UNESCO Recognition, in collaboration with the Haiku UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Registration Promotion Council. This curated anthology is conceived not merely as a book, but as a living record of community consensus—a collective voice brought together to support the formal nomination of Haiku for the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Statement of Support / 俳句ユネスコ無形文化遺産登録推進について We are profoundly humbled to share the official endorsement and message of support provided by Kenzo Nomura, Chairman of the Haiku UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Registration Promotion Council: “Haiku, the world’s shortest fixed-form poetry, originated in Japan and is now enjoyed in over 200 countries worldwide. This poetic form, which captures a moment in a few words, historically had a basic structure centered on seasonal words and a 5-7-5 syllable pattern. However, it has now spread both domestically and internationally in various forms, including non-seasonal and free-verse poems, likely because it is a poetic form that is easily accessible to people all over the world. Haiku allows us to express everything from familiar things to the universe, condensing them into extremely short words. What haiku can contribute to the world is not only its appreciation of nature, but also its ability to cultivate the ability to view and think about subjects from a social and global perspective. As haiku spreads throughout the world, it will foster greater awareness of the importance of harmony and cooperation. Even if its influence grows only little by little, we believe that haiku can contribute to building a better world. Through the publication of this joint collection of haiku, we hope to share our philosophy with people around the world: that promoting the registration of haiku as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage is an expression of our heartfelt wish for world peace.” 俳句ユネスコ無形文化遺産登録推進協議会 会長 能村研三 日本発祥の世界最短の定型詩 HAIKU は、いまでは世界の２０0カ国以上で愛好されています。瞬間を短い言葉で捉えるこの詩型は、季語と５７５の音を中心とする型が、歴史的な基本形でしたが、いまでは無季や自由律を含むさまざまな形で国内外に広まっているのは、世界の誰にでも親しみやすい詩型だからでしょう。 俳句ではきわめて短い言葉に凝縮して、身近なものから宇宙に至るまで、自然や森羅万象を表現できます。HAIKU が世界に貢献しうるものは、自然ばかりではなく社会的かつ世界的な視野から対象を見つめ、考える力を養うことです。 世界に HAIKU が広がることで、調和や協調を尊重する意識が高まり、少しずつでも広がっていけば、HAIKU はよりよい世界を作ることにも貢献できると言えるでしょう。この合同句集刊行に際して、世界平和を祈念する我々の俳句ユネスコ無形文化遺産登録推進の理念をご理解いただければ幸いです。 — Kenzo Nomura / 能村研三 Chairman, Haiku UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Registration Promotion Council / 俳句ユネスコ無形文化遺産登録推進協議会 会長 Call for submissions coming soon ‼️‼️‼️ #literaryrevlations #Haiku #AGlobalManifestoforUNESCO #kenzonomura #haikuheritage #Japan #globalhaiku #gabrielamariemilton

#vss365 #nurture Happy weekend my dearest 💚🍁🌹🥰🌹 Coming soon at Literary Revelations @LR_Publisher Playground of Colors: A Photographic Plea to Protect the Eath 💚 To truly nurture our earth, we must first learn to look closely at what we discard. Look what Andrei Marin does in his upcoming Literary Revelations release, Playground of Colors. In the striking series Crepe in the Rain, this digital photography project transforms discarded colored paper into vibrant abstract compositions, revealing unexpected beauty within forgotten materials. Each image is built from recycled paper exposed to rainfall—allowing water to stain, dissolve, and reshape pigments into intricate organic textures. By arranging and photographing these weathered fragments, the project captures a dialogue between chance and intention, where natural forces become active collaborators in the creative process. The resulting forms evoke landscapes, geological formations, minerals, and fluid textiles, inviting viewers to discover familiar structures within abstraction. At its core, this series explores transformation, sustainability, and the hidden life of everyday objects. Materials once considered waste are reimagined as expressive works of art, emphasizing that beauty emerges through decay, imperfection, and time. The rain leaves behind unpredictable marks that cannot be replicated, making every piece a unique record of a fleeting natural event. Through color, texture, and precise composition, Crepe in the Rain celebrates the poetic relationship between nature and recycled elements, inspiring a renewed appreciation for both. #LiteraryRevelations #AndreiMarin #PlaygroundOfColors #CrepeInTheRain

Stream Podcast Ep 1 now! #JezabelsIsland #BookPodcast #PsychologicalThriller #GabrielaMarieMilton #TimesSquare #BookX

#vss365 #embrace Dear Friends ❤️ Jezebel’s Island is officially live and available in all Amazon Markets. A few links for your convenience: Amazon USA amazon.com/Jezebels-Island-P… Amazon Canada amazon.ca/Jezebels-Island-Ps… Amazon UK amazon.co.uk/Jezebels-Island… Amazon India amazon.in/dp/B0H7XQW6CM   Who killed the Captain? It is the question at the center of Jezebel’s Island: A Psychological and Mystery Thriller—a dark, surreal puzzle that echoes through a suffocating City. Isolated on a remote island where the rain never stops, the answer does not lie in the rain-slicked streets—it lies across the forbidden peaks, shrouded in myth. Anastasia was chosen. She does not know why, and she does not know by whom. To uncover the truth behind the Captain’s death, she must confront the ultimate taboo: the interdiction. The mountains on the other side are strictly off-limits, and to cross them is to challenge the very architecture of reality itself. Guiding her journey is the haunting, uncompromising philosophy of Jezebel—the Captain's visionary yet enigmatic widow. To survive the crossing and unmask the City's secrets, Anastasia must navigate a path where the line between liberation and destruction blurs. She must wrestle with the terrifying cost of survival: Is it possible to construct a pristine future using the harsh, necessary tools of a broken world? Turn the Keys. Solve the Enigma. Jezebel’s Island is high-concept psychological thriller that trusts the intelligence of its reader. With The Map and A Note to the Reader as your guide, you are provided with the first cryptic clues—but the rest is entirely up to you. You are not a mere spectator. You must have the courage to turn the locks. Please embrace a new perspective 🙏❤️ #gabrielamariemilton #myterythriller #jezebelsisland #psychlogical

#vvs365 #appraisal #upcomingbook Dear Friends and Readers, As you read this post, you cross a threshold with me. For the past several months, while working on anthologies, I have been quietly weaving a new world, laying down mirrors, and hanging veils. Today, as we step into July, I am deeply proud to announce that my mystery thriller and dystopian novel, Jezebel’s Island, is fully realized and preparing for its definitive release through Literary Revelations soon. This is not a traditional story. It is a psychological labyrinth built on an intentional contradiction. If you are looking for a simple journey from A to B with a tidy conclusion at C, this is not your journey. Instead, Jezebel’s Island unfolds in cinematic flashes, abrupt transitions, and fragmented scenes that tell you a profound story. I want to share a secret with you before anyone else reads the book: the ending greets you at the very start. When you open the first chapter, The Night the Silence Screamed, you are not reading the beginning of Anastasia’s journey—you are reading her chronological future. She had already survived a devastating experience, absorbed Jezebel’s ruthless mandates, and returned to the City with a cold, revolutionary clarity. Her return is a final, razor-sharp appraisal of their entire society. But will she stay there? At its core, this book is a defense of human consciousness against a sterile, automated existence. As Jezebel writes in her letters to Anastasia: “Real answers lie deep within the human soul, not in robots.” Anastasia begins her journey believing she is an independent investigator pulling back veils, only to discover a more terrifying truth: she is a mirror's silent surface upon which the elite of the City project their crimes and shifting legends. But when the mirror finally shatters on the deserted sand, it is an act of total liberation. She is freed from their script to write her own. Reading this book you are my co-investigators. I invite you to listen closely to the rhythm of the rain, the sudden chill of the sheets, and the spectral sing-song of the black-clad children. These are not merely details; they are the pulse of a world coming together and falling apart in the same moment. Please, keep a close eye on your inbox over the coming days. The gates to the Island are about to swing open. Step into the mist with me. The investigation begins soon. With much love #gabrielamariemilton #myterythriller #writingcom #jezebelsisland

Literary Revelations @LR_Publisher is deeply proud to bring you a rare glimpse into the breathtaking world of fine art photographer Naoki Kimura. His current solo exhibition is in Tokyo, “Nagi-Rei Lullscapes – Before It Begins: Zero-Horizon Photographic Art,” @cogito_ergo0sum The artist invites us into that quiet, heavy space of anticipation—the stillness right before the world begins. As the exhibition enters its final week, Kimura reflects on the magic of the audience’s presence: “After a week, it has been fascinating to observe how differently people respond. Some engage intellectually, some emotionally, and others simply spend time with the work in silence. Those varied responses are becoming part of the exhibition itself.” This is the very essence of archival art—a living dialogue that captures what exists just before it is named. We will soon post more detailed information on our website and share the link directly with you. #literaryrevelations #literaryrevelationsart #fineartphotography #naokikimuraart #zerohorizonartcollection @cogito0ergo0sum @gabriela_marie_milton

#vss365 #grain #tokyo A millions grains of joy: Haiku for Soulmates – Now in The Museum of Haiku Literature and Bashō Museum ‼️‼️‼️ Reporting from Tokyo Hikari Literary Revelations Artist in Residence @LR_Publisher On June 22, I had the immense honor of meeting with the President of the Association of Haiku Poets—the largest and most prestigious haiku organization in Japan, which operates The Museum of Haiku Literature—as well as the Director of its International Affairs Division. On this momentous occasion, I formally presented and donated a permanent copy of Haiku for Soulmates on behalf of the press. The President of the Association, Mr. Kenzo Nomura (能村研三氏), is one of Japan’s most distinguished living haiku masters. Likewise, Ms. Masako Kakutani (角谷昌子氏), Director of International Affairs, is a nationally recognized poet who has dedicated her life’s work to the global expansion of the art form. Opportunities to meet with cultural leaders of this magnitude are extraordinarily rare, and I wish to express my deepest gratitude for being granted such a precious audience. In Conversation with President Nomura and Director Kakutani During our meeting, I explained that Haiku for Soulmatesis now distributed across 150 countries and features 200 contributors, each an accomplished author and professional in their respective fields. Director Kakutani examined the archival volume with great care, pausing thoughtfully at each contributor’s name. She remarked on her deep respect for Western poets, noting that they hold some of the most revered positions among contemporary artists, and expressed a profound interest in the backgrounds of our authors. Both President Nomura and Director Kakutani warmly praised Gabriela’s remarkable achievement in uniting poets from every corner of the world into a single, cohesive masterpiece. Archival Honors at the Basho Museum & Educational Integration Because Director Kakutani is deeply committed to the growth of English-language haiku, she has graciously arranged to archive three of Literary Revelations’ landmark anthologies—Petals of Haiku: An Anthology, Tranquility: An Anthology of Haiku, and Haiku for Soulmates—at the historic Basho Museum (芭蕉記念館) in Tokyo. Furthermore, she shared that these three volumes will be adopted as official teaching materials for elite haiku workshops in Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture—the birthplace of the legendary haiku reformer Masaoka Shiki (1867–1902). This means the voices of all our participants will not only be preserved in the birthplace of haiku, but will actively inspire and guide the next generation of Japanese master poets. I extend my most heartfelt congratulations to every contributor. Finally, I want to express my sincere thanks to President Nomura and Director Kakutani for generously granting this audience and welcoming me as Gabriela Marie Milton’s representative. #haiku #haikuforsoulmates #bashomuseum #gabrielamarimilton @hikari2162554 #literaryrevelations
