For more information, see this Twitter thread. Realistically, this for now only affects my upcoming review of Jennifer Estep’s Conquer the Kingdom. Hopefully this will all be resolved such that I can still post that before it’s released in March of next year.
Happy Friday the 13th! The only remaining holiday that Hallmark doesn’t have a card for (please don’t disabuse me if I am wrong)! It’s Mary Robinette Kowal’s birthday and she’s giving us gifts! Read her novelette here. Lifehacker found a tool called Twine that lets you create your own Choose Your Own Adventure stories. And […]
Seen a couple of cool things this week.

So I’ve decided that sometimes I just want to write stuff. And dammit if I’m going to support a whole ‘nother blog for that like an idiot when I’ve got this nice and juicy one right here to use. So sometimes, I might post some things that aren’t exactly book-related. It’s my blog, after all. […]
