Hey all, Sam here. All right, well today has been an interesting day. Shortly after waking up, I was checking my e-mails, and had one from the Gen Con Writer's Symposium. Unfortunately it held not happy news; it seems that the panel I was most looking forward to has been cancelled. I understand why, because… Continue reading NetGalley Review: The Sun and the Void by Gabriela Romero-Lacruz

WIP Wednesday – July 19
Hey all, Sam and David back again today. In just two more weeks we will be on our way to Gen Con. Oh my goodness, we're starting to get really excited about that.

Hey all, Sam here. If you didn't know this already, spooky season begins on July 5th...which means this contemporary ghost story that is a modern take on Austen's Northanger Abbey is perfectly timed.

Hey all, Sam here. Sorry for not getting this post up yesterday, but I think sharing a writing snippet was a pretty decent substitute overall.

NetGalley Review: The Jasad Heir by Sara Hashem
Hey all, Sam here. I'm ready to talk about books some more...Wait. When am I not ready to talk about books? I have such a huge digital stack of books to read, which doesn't look as impressive or imposing as a physical stack, but it also isn't super intimidating either. But there are so many… Continue reading NetGalley Review: The Jasad Heir by Sara Hashem
