Ginger Nuts of Horror Reviews Wolf Magick by Paula Cappa
I'm thrilled to have this review by Jim Mcleod of Ginger Nuts of Horror. Many know him as the "Don of Horror" and one of the best in the business.
"This is wolf magick in its purest form, brutal, beautiful, and utterly unforgettable. Cappa writes with a sure hand for atmosphere, folding romance, danger, and enchantment into the same weather system. A book that wants to be felt, not just followed."— Read more of this blog post »

“There is a simple art to murder. The key to getting away with murder is to remain cool-headed and detached. Remove or damage the evidence. Lock in a good alibi. Confuse the motive with doubt," Alexei said. Greylock by Paula Cappa”

“Hands smothered Alexei's face. Spider fingers, furry and boney, like a paw. He tasted the sharp tang of blood. A dirty odor stung his nose. "Where am I?"
"The past is not dust," echoed a voice like a B-flat note.
"I cannot see!" Alexei mumbled.
"You see everything. Even yourself. No mirror serves me."
"Who are you?"
"I am orange in the sky. Green in the pines. Autumn rivulets. I am the conjured."
"Where the hell am I. Get off!"
"You, Alexei Viktor Georghovlovna, are where you desire to be. Inside my music."

Thank you for inviting me. I'm delighted to be your friend.
Thank you Paula for the friend request!It is nice to meet you!

Do you still need reviewers for Magic of the Loons? I would be happy to read it. I have a Kindle Paperwhite or I can give you my E-mail, whichever is easier.
Hi Cindy. I had announced I would resign anyway. The whole thing got way out of hand with misunderstandings and that group isn't open enough for me. Thanks for the note on Lit Darkness discussion. I'm going over there now.
Sorry to hear you got banned from the Readers Review. I don't agree with them and am still trying to figure out why they have an aversion to supernatural short stories. There is a good discussion on Saki and The Open Window in the Literary Darkness group.

I did drop out of the Readers Review. I did not think they were very friendly to supernatural short stories. They were also too limited with that 1910 date. I just finished At Chrichton Abbey by Mary Elizabeth Braddon. I really liked it and will look up some more of her stories. I got that title and author from your blog. That is not self-promotion.
Cindy wrote: "I can't comment on the Readers Review 1800-1910 group because I am not part of that group anymore. I have been reading their comments about self-promotion and I think they are very wrong. I really ..."Thank you, Cindy. I so appreciate your comment and support. You are a good contributor! Did you drop out of the group? Yes, some of it sounded so unfriendly, and I guess typical of the arrogent reputation that Goodreads has lately. Some threads are cliques and don't welcome outsiders or new opinions. I post in Literary Darkness Group and they are a highly intelligent group, unafraid of a new voice, and are not threatened by bloggers or authors. Supernatural Fiction Readers too is a good one, very open to share with one another.
I can't comment on the Readers Review 1800-1910 group because I am not part of that group anymore. I have been reading their comments about self-promotion and I think they are very wrong. I really like your blog postings. I look forward to it every week. Just letting you know that I have gotten so many good short story recommendations from you. Not sure what has gotten into that group but I am glad that I am not part of it anymore.

The Literary Darkness Group is a private group. I assume that is an active group. I gave them the information they asked for and have not heard anything. Maybe I am just being impatient. Can you give them a recommendation?
Cindy wrote: "Have you thought about moving it, so we can read and explore more stories. We are missing some really good authors, especially from the 1920's."Cindy, I post in other GR groups: Literary Darkness Group in the "Classic" thread under Classic Dark Stories. And in Supernatural Fiction Readers Group under "Group Members Who Write" thread:"Blog, Reading Fiction, Tales of Terror. You can participate in discussions in these groups. Their focus is dark fiction though. There is a group "Short Story Connect" that is fairly active and I post there sometimes.
Have you thought about moving it, so we can read and explore more stories. We are missing some really good authors, especially from the 1920's.
Cindy wrote: "You and I are locked out of the supernatural short stories thread. Reason being, we did not pay attention to the 1910 rule. If you can't read and explore new short stories then that is messed up. I..."Thanks, Cindy. It's not just us, though. No one can post or comment on that thread now. I'll post each week's short story in a separate link in the short story salon, but I'll have to keep the stories to their time frame. Oh well.
You and I are locked out of the supernatural short stories thread. Reason being, we did not pay attention to the 1910 rule. If you can't read and explore new short stories then that is messed up. I have gotten great recommendations from you.
