Just some doodles
Ok, so this makes it look like I do nothing at work…except draw. Not true. I’m insanely busy at work, but I’m also super twitchy and have to have something to do with my hands. At least doodling is better than eating, right?

A reminder
As to what these pages are really about. A fantasy book. The start of an epic. Most unlikeliest hero ever. A somewhat likeable demon, when he isn’t a complete arrogant ass. Ok, he’s even likeable when he’s arrogant. There will be more winter storms to come and curling up with a good book is a…

What are you watching?
As I sit here, feeling like utter crap, all headachy and nauseous, I have the tv on in the background. I have no desire to watch it, but I like the background noise. It got me to thinking: who watches what? Reality shows? Mostly I hate them, which I’ve mentioned in other blogs. I like…

Review: City of Blaze
Wow. 3.5, really, if I could give half stars, for the following reasons: 1) Needs more editing. Some errors, not too bad, and too many sections that are just solid walls of text. These could have been broken down into more palatable paragraphs for a smoother read. 2) Too much “new world” thrown at the…

Winter Sky
Winter sky Not gray, but white Leaden, but light No horizon Inescapable white Then The snow The blanket Rolling white As above, so below Pristine parallels And night Is just a darker white

Kids Do It Right
I’m not a huge fan of reality shows. Call me a tv snob, but most of them appeal to our baser instincts, because a small part of us feeds on the lower elements of these shows. That doesn’t mean there aren’t some I watch, or that some of them don’t have legitimately interesting factors. I’m…

Review: Progeny
I would have gone 3.5 stars, if I could. I did like it, and the author did a fabulous job of making me hate the character of Zane. I would have liked to see a bit more, though. Maybe more bonding between the two boys, maybe more insight into the possible family bonds of a…

Review: Ghosts of Demons Past
Didn’t care for it at first, seemed like a take on Harry Dresden but with a main character who is much less likeable. Seth is a man who not only sees ghosts, but speaks to them, and makes a questionable living at it. The book opens with him getting a blow job (maybe this was…

Winter
So I was thinking about winter. Mostly I was hating on it. I hate on it 2 months before it’s here. And if you don’t live in the great Northeast, if you live somewhere incredibly pleasant and warm like Las Vegas or Ecuador, you can’t understand it. The cold, the snow, the wind. But there…

On the End
Of the holidays. What did you think I was going to say? Yeesh! So this weekend, I wasn’t on call. I caught up on sleep. I took the tree down (Spirit had a head start on that; most of the branches were dislodged already). I vacuumed. Yes, I occasionally do that. I put ornaments away. …
