Well, given the last post was kinda heavy – and there will be other “heavy” posts to come as I bare my soul a little bit - I figure a bit of light relief is called for, a little levity, something light-hearted. Yep, time to talk politics. JUST KIDDING !!! Feck I worked for State politics [...]
Taking such a long break from blogging was not something I wanted to do. Circumstances forced it upon me, as I’ve said before, because of health issues blah-di-blah. It’s also why I’m posting so often now – and drafting, making notes and planning other posts – because I can. This is actually very difficult for [...]
Brenna Yovanoff is one of my favourite new-found writers. I have always loved the Fantasy and Urban Fantasy genres, and I enjoy the YA entries into that pool.

“. . . fat hardbacks and werewolves . . .” Well maybe not werewolves this time but flesh-eating water-horses are pretty damn scary-cool and bloodthirsty, right? I am looking forward to a couple of orders flying in from other countries fairly soon; a pre-ordered copy of Maggie Stiefvater’s new book The Scorpio Races SIGNED and [...]

Well guess what, after dumping “Otterkat” and moving over to “Crazy Diamond”, then going on a very long hiatus, I’ve decided to start up the old bloggy thing again. I have been so inspired by various writers, blogs and sites around [I’m looking at YOU, Maggie Stiefvater], that I wanted an online place to ramble, [...]
