News to somebody?
I'm working on another Shadow book, I know I've technically 'finished' the series, but in this day and age of prequels, sequels, and alternate realities, what is that to me, especially considering the very nature of the Shadow?

Oh, that she had lived!
The guy who brought us Colin Firth as Mr. Darcy is at it again, apparently he's attempting the impossible, namely to finish Jane Austen's final work, 'Sanditon.' Find the news blurb and preview here. I've read some pretty awful Jane Austen sequels, so I am wary of anyone messing with the 'canon' but if anyone can, I suppose this gentleman can be trusted, but then I thought the same of Tolkien: the 'Lord of the Rings' movies were amazing, the Hobbit not so much, and those were finished works. But whatever comes of the movie, you should at least familiarize yourself with the book itself, here. It begins so very well and ends just as it might get interesting, oh that she might have lived to finish it! While the plot isn't very exciting (what Austen novel is?) her social wit cuts like a knife. Enjoy!

Summer is fleeting...
I hope you've read something, for fall is nigh, but it's not too late, even if it's only the philosophical maundering of Garfield the Cat, go read thee something ere the summer is o'er!
