I just had to share this little gift from Julia Blake.

Recipe for a Great Book:

Take a dash of history
Add one cup of witchcraft
And one cup of ancient magic
Stir until bubbling evilly
Then slowly add intrigue, tension and fear
Keep adding until a boiling point is reached
Be careful not to let it boil over
Sprinkle liberally with the supernatural
And finish the whole with a light dusting of horror
And there you have it, the perfect book.
Now consume slowly and enjoy to the fullest.
