Books: Journies or Destinations?
I never really thought about reading books in this way before, but today I am, so permit me to blather on about it. I read a review today by a reader who said he (“he” meaning “he or she” throughout) only read the first part of a book and then stopped, because he could already […]

Awesome Indies
Sometimes, the word AWESOME just works. I was trolling around the Ninnernet (what one of my little ones always called the Internet … she also asked for a “Barbie dot com” for Christmas one year … apparently I let her watch too much TV), when I happened across a fellow indie’s blog. You might have […]
