Appendix N, Margaret St. Clair. Resurrected Post.
August 27, 2017 Appendix N, Margaret St. Clair I’ve been reluctant to write this one. You know the ubiquitous maternal aphorism “If you don’t have anything nice to say, say nothing at all. “ And I dislike offering particularly critical opinions of other writers. After all, who am I to judge. The first book by… Continue reading Appendix N, Margaret St. Clair. Resurrected Post.

Currently Reading. Resurrected Post.
August 13, 2017 Currently Reading I’ve mentioned before that I’m usually reading multiple books at any given time. (Not simultaneously of course. Let’s not be ridiculous.)

July 9, 2017 Checking In. A brief one today. There’s a joke somewhere in the word ‘brief’ but I don’t feel like mining that one from the joke pits.
