We don't all have the experience of being a space captain like Mal Reynolds commanding a small Firefly-class ship through the 'Verse, but we sure do love the adventures that he and his crew go on. If we only wrote about stories that we've personally experienced then it'd be severely limited story. (Unless you really are a space captain that commands a small Firefly-class ship! You lucky bastard!)

You wanna read a story about a bisexual werewolf run a marathon across France? Write it. You wanna read a story about a super villainess who forgot to pay her phone bill because she was too busy perfecting her anti-gravity boots? Write it. (less)

For example, if I'm stuck on trying to get into the mood to write slice-of-life I go on Netflix and watch some independent films that are light and fun.

When I was writing JEZEBEL LOVES CANDY I sat down and watched 'GBF' as a way to recharge my batteries. It served as a little writing break and a fun way to kill some time. :) (less)

THE ENDLESS CONTROL OF MADNESS Book Review


Note: I’ve received a free ARC from the author in exchange for an honest review.


I���m not a historian. I wanted to get that out of the way before I start this review properly. One of my friends has recently completed her History major and would have a better grasp on the material provided in this book than I would. Actually, she���d be the better choice as reviewer since she would be able

“You’re late, asshole!” he said cheerfully. He tried to snatch the six-pack out of Cheyenne’s hands but, being shorter by at least half a foot, ended up jumping in the air, his limbs flailing in an exaggerated manner.”
Melissa Noël, Jezebel Loves Candy

“You won't even know you've crossed the line until it's way back in your rearview mirror.”
Barry Lyga, I Hunt Killers

“Jazz hadn't given her many details of exactly what life in the Dent house had been like, but he'd told her enough that she knew it wasn't hearts and flowers. Well, except for the occasional heart cut from a chest. And the kind of flowers you send to funerals.”
Barry Lyga, I Hunt Killers

“And what? Accidentally cuts off three fingers postmortem? 'Oops, oh, no, my girlfriend just died! Clumsy me, in trying to perform CPR, I chopped off some fingers! Guess I'll just take them with me.... Oh, darn, where did that middle finger go?”
Barry Lyga, I Hunt Killers

“If you ain’t scared… you ain’t human.”
James Dashner, The Maze Runner

“I promised him!" he screamed, realizing even as he did so that his voice was laced with something wrong. Almost insanity. "I promised I'd save him, take him home! I promised him!”
James Dashner, The Maze Runner
