Hey all, Sam and David back again today. Sorry for the wonky posting schedule the past week or so. I've felt pretty out of sorts, just run down from the schedule shifts after coming back from Gen Con, and the long hours at work plus the weather...it has left me feeling pretty drained overall. Anyway,… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – Aug 23

Book Review: Rising Fire by Terri Brisbin
Hey all, Sam here. All right...we know what day it is...basically it's one of the many days each week that I spend talking about books. What can I say? I read quite a bit and that means that I have quite a few books to talk about at any given time. Honestly I just wish… Continue reading Book Review: Rising Fire by Terri Brisbin
Book Review: The Study of Poisons by Maria V Snyder
Hey all, Sam here. Today’s blog review post is an interesting one, at least for me, because it is partly a review for a newer release, but it is also a throwback to my college days…which was a couple iterations of my blog ago. My former blogs never had any real viewership. I believe I… Continue reading Book Review: The Study of Poisons by Maria V Snyder
WIP Wednesday – Aug 16
Hey all, Sam and David here again today. It's the middle of the week again, already. Wow. This past week has felt really long, and yet even then it didn't really feel that productive. Sam had to spend a little bit more time at work with a shifted schedule to cover a co-workers vacation...and it… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – Aug 16

NetGalley Review: Face the Night by Lani Forbes
Hey all, Sam here. Sorry for not getting this up earlier everyone, but it has been a very long few days at work, and I'm feeling really worn out from it all. It has put me farther behind than I'd like to be...but the nice thing is that I have the next two days off… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Face the Night by Lani Forbes
Book Review: Strength Check by Katherine McIntyre
Hey all, Sam here. I am so tired. I ended up having to stay at work an hour or so later than normal, and then, despite being really tired, I struggled to get to sleep, and then I struggled to stay asleep. That means that today I really feel worn out. It also means that… Continue reading Book Review: Strength Check by Katherine McIntyre
Weekend Writer: Writing with Emotion, Tension, & Conflict by Cheryl St. John Chapters 1
Hey all, Sam here. Welcome back to another bookish deep dive for Weekend Writer. So, if you've been paying attention, I was supposed to spend this month finishing up my deep dive into The Emotional Craft of Writing by Donald Maass...but I just wasn't connecting to the book and it just wasn't working for me.… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Writing with Emotion, Tension, & Conflict by Cheryl St. John Chapters 1
NetGalley Review: Thornhedge by T. Kingfisher
Hey all, Sam here. Getting back into a normal work/life balance and rhythm after attending a great convention is not easy. I find that I'm just feeling tired and my typical day-to-day just seems dull in comparison. Then again, I have lived on the road, working convention after convention pretty much every weekend, and I… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Thornhedge by T. Kingfisher
WIP Wednesday – Aug 9
Hey all, Sam and David here again today. After the lengthy post from yesterday, I think we're going to try our best to keep today's post a little more short and sweet...because obviously most of the past week has been spent at Gen Con. Basically we'll be covering anything that happened last Wednesday after we… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – Aug 9
