J.R.R. Tolkien
“Maedhros laughed saying: 'A king is he that can hold his own or else his title is vain. Thingol does but grant us lands where his power does not run. Indeed Doriath alone would be his realm this day but for the coming of the Noldor. Therefore in Doriath let him reign and be glad that he has the sons of Finwe for his neighbours not the Orcs of Morgoth that we found.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Silmarillion

Sylvia Plath
“I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”
Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

“Kiss me, and you will see how important I am.”

Sylvia Plath
“And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.”

Stephen North Don't feel bad. I've only read one of yours and I haven't put up a review on Amazon yet. I am looking forward to seeing you at Horror Realm. Maybe you can introduce me to the 'real' Jacob this time. :)
Hope you enjoy 'Dead Tide,' too. After reading your book, I think we like the same things. Be interesting to get your opinion. Take care mi amigo!
Steve

Bowie V. It's great to hear from you again!

Happy reading, and I look forward to FINALLY getting to "Dead Tide" in the coming weeks.
