Sing the Changes

Well, here we go again. I hate blowing my own horn, but no one else will do it for me; or I wouldn't ask them to, at least.

I have just published a collection of short stories that I've written since 2006. As I stated in the Introduction, I did this because I thought people might be more receptive to an assortment of short stories rather than a novel on one theme. Like a box of chocolates. As my fr Read more of this blog post »

Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman
"What an absolutely absurd, bizarre, and outlandishly fun read this turned out to be - could it be that progression fantasy is the genre I never knew I needed!

Final Rating: 4.8/5 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕

Talk about a surprise – this book is completely absurd, and somehow" Read more of this review »

This is the book which I hoped Ready Player One would be. It’s marvelous. Intriguing, funny, exciting, and thoughtful all at once. If you like Dungeons and Dragons, you’ll think you died and went to heaven.

I bought it based solely on word of mouth an

A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole
"There are a lot of ways to judge people, but I find that opinion of this book is one of the most accurate and efficient. With very few exceptions, I've found that how much I like someone is strongly correlated with how much they enjoy the book. Is it" Read more of this review »

One fine morning Fortuna spun my wheel of luck and put me on a flight to NYC. The person who was sitting next to me, refusing to indulge in modern day perversities like movies, pulled out his book and sat down reading. He must have been enjoying it i" Read more of this review »

(Some spoilers follow, nothing major. I had to discuss important issues with this novel.)

I gave the first book in this series, Ready Player One, three stars because I couldn’t award 3 1/2 and I didn’t feel it deserved four. It was a fun read, but a g

Well, this was disappointing. It won the Booker Prize?! That makes me angry.

I’ve often thought my own writing style was stark, but this makes me seem positively Byzantinian. It makes Hemingway look descriptive. It’s page after page of insipid dialogu

“If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.”
Mark Twain

Stephen  King
“There are books full of great writing that don't have very good stories. Read sometimes for the story... don't be like the book-snobs who won't do that. Read sometimes for the words--the language. Don't be like the play-it-safers who won't do that. But when you find a book that has both a good story and good words, treasure that book.”
Stephen King

Ray Bradbury
“Stuff your eyes with wonder, he said, live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It's more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.”
Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451

“There is nothing better than a friend, unless it is a friend with chocolate.”
Linda Grayson

Groucho Marx
“I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.”
