    Selfie

    Everyone is doing it. Thought I’d post a selfie in case you were wondering  if the curly locks shot is really me. It is though my hair obviously doesn’t do curls without intervention. And I don’t intervene unless it’s a really special occasion and the bride demands it. Read more

    Thank you for all the likes, follows, views and reads

    Dear Reader, I hope you enjoyed your Sunday. Perfect weather we had in my corner of the world today and I hope in yours too. Today’s post is not a story post, and I apologize that I can’t provide your daily dose of fantasy fiction. I ran into some technical issues with the audio book… Read more

    What did you read this week?

    Well what did you read? I really do want to know. So leave me a comment and let me know. I’m asking this because I love stories and I’m always looking for something new to read, some new author’s works to fall in love with (in audio of course). I did mention somewhere on here… Read more

    Divination – A Sonnet for Your Thoughts

      Divination And I lay sleeping, weaving a dead dream, a late nightmare where we played tarot cards stacked in two piles on headstones that gleam. In the cemetery where we played bards, by the waning light of the sun, singing, chanting spells, drawing cards that spoke of woe. Their words echoed across the graves,… Read more

  • Breaking Curses

    Breaking Curses

    Sarn has a problem. His eyes glow green all the time due to a magic that’s slowly chewing away at his sanity. Sarn indentured himself to pay for his younger brother’s education and was assigned to the Rangers at sixteen. In the four years since then, he has built a tenuous and often strained relationship… Read more

  • Attack of the Sluginator

    I am the sluginator. I terminate slugs in my garden with extreme prejudice and a lot of stomping. Nothing like squishing those things before they eat my plants. It’s quite cathartic. If you have a slug problem like I do, don’t fret. You don’t have to buy nasty chemicals and risk poisoning the food you’re… Read more

The Great Courses: Higgs Boson and Beyond Dive into particle… Read more

  • Note to My Sister

    September is days away. I still have to remind myself not to start searching for the perfect birthday gift for my sister. She’s dead. Gone to a better place I hope where all the woes that plagued her in life no longer pester her. Down here on earth I’m still here. Same job. Same commute. Same… Read more

  • Audio Books: My Not-so-Secret Obsession

    What are you reading? I love asking people that because I’m always on the hunt for recommendations. Reviews are my best friend. Yet I rarely ever post one on Audible unless the book has no reviews at all. Then I feel morally obligated to fill in the gap. So what am I reading? Read more

  • Balance

    While wracking up the points in one of the free rewards programs I indulge in, I ran across an interesting ad. It was for a site called http://www.mymixify.com. I didn’t watch the commercial. I usually ignore them but the last few seconds caught my attention.  Instead of showing the usual array of really unhealthy snacks,… Read more
