Hey all, Dani here. Holy smokes, this is the 700th post I've written and posted for this blog. That number doesn't include the posts by Damian or Signy; just mine. I'm not going to lie: this feels like a pretty big accomplishment. I never dreamed that this blog would do this well, and I'm constantly… Continue reading Weekly Wrap-Up (26)

Review: The Dragon Republic by R.F. Kuang
Hey all, Dani here. I have not posted up as many NetGalley reviews as I've wanted to, but that's because I've been reading a little bit slower the past couple weeks. I'd still like to have a good reading month and get a good number of reviews up for the #Reviewathon. My review ratio on… Continue reading Review: The Dragon Republic by R.F. Kuang
Manga Review: Black Clover Vol 8
Hey all, Dani here. I got a few new books on writing and RPG story craft in the mail today, and it seems like they are full of some really great essays, so I'm excited to start reading them. Oh, and I've also figured out my next couple of book purchases, which are also on… Continue reading Manga Review: Black Clover Vol 8
Weekend Writer: Introduction
Hey all, Dani here. In all honestly the Writer's Symposium at Gen Con had the opposite effect I was hoping for. There were a few interesting things I learned, and it was cool to meet authors who either work as a writer full time or who have a day job and then write on the… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Introduction
Comic Review: The Mighty Thor Vol 1
Hey all, Dani here. Today I am bringing you a comic/graphic novel review, and I'm excited to share my thoughts on it. Should I make a disclaimer that I just really enjoy superhero stories and so I may be biased towards more positive reviews? I generally don't have negative things to say about these superpowered… Continue reading Comic Review: The Mighty Thor Vol 1
Discussion: What are some of your favorite books?
Hey all, Dani here. It's Book Lovers' Day, so I figured I would celebrate that with today's discussion topic. I always find it fascinating to see what books really resonate with each of us, what books we consider to be important to our soul, what books we can't help but recommend to others in most… Continue reading Discussion: What are some of your favorite books?
Weekly Wrap-Up (25)
Hey all, Dani here. I feel like today's wrap up isn't all that exciting of a post. But then again, most of my excitement from the past week centers on our trip to Gen Con, and I've already given you pretty much all the details from that (Day One, Day Two, Day Three, Day Four).… Continue reading Weekly Wrap-Up (25)
Gen Con – Day Four
Hey all, Dani (and Damian) here. This post should have been written and published yesterday, but after driving home from the convention on Sunday, we did a lot of sleeping and a lot of staring at our very nicely sized convention haul. It was a lot to deal with and so this post didn't get… Continue reading Gen Con – Day Four
Calendar Girls: August 2019
Hey all, Dani here. I'm going to make today's post pretty quick. Because honestly after all the walking and panels and geekery of the past five days, I'm actually super tired, and right now I am finding it difficult to focus on writing up these posts. So I'm going to get this one finished and… Continue reading Calendar Girls: August 2019
Gen Con – Day Three
Hey all, Dani (and Damian) here. Whew, we're almost at the end of the Gen Con experience. It's always such a great time, but it's also so jam packed with people and stuff to do, so I look forward to this convention, but then I also look forward to just relaxing once it's over. As… Continue reading Gen Con – Day Three
