Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Revise the book.

Herding cats for fun

That's a whopper of a list over at Locus. I must be way behind because not familiar with so.many.authors.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I thought I'd just breeze through and vote for stuff I've read and remember (I see you, opals and storms) but apparently I have to drop everything and listen to The Mythic Dream

Apparently I read more fantasy novels than science fiction? Who knew

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

My friend has another short story out. Fetch Us Another Round

This is the same friend who wrote Inks, Jinks.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I highly recommend that book.

Now tagless for your comfort.

A readers' advisory consultant at work told us that when the world is a garbage fire, two genres of books increase in readership: romance and dystopian fiction.

One, because people want to lose themselves in happy endings, the other, because they want to know it could be worse.

I just got my second $20 amazon gift card for listening to my 3rd romance novel on audible this month.
