Hi everyone, Mod R here. Today, per release week request, I bring you a quiz which will determine which Sweep of the Heart spousal delegation you belong to. Also per request, it contains puppies. The results will sort you into one of the 6 most Horde-popular Alien species. As usual, this is for fun and

Tea and Hammering
::taking a figurative hammer and hitting the holiday project:: Get! Into! Shape! I should do that to myself. I haven’t worked out in 2 weeks. I haven’t walked either. It is super crappy. It’s like Portland, Oregon weather over here, grey and dull and depressing. We mostly have two seasons: awful heat and gloom. We

Catching Up
Popeyes turkey, a quick recipe, and a funny story.
Tuesday Before Thanksgiving
It is Tuesday before Thanksgiving, and I’m feeling a bit under the weather. Outside is rainy and cold. We have a fire going. It’s Sookie. The old dog loves the fire, so she will go and lay in front of the fire place and whine sadly at us when the fire doesn’t magically happen. It’s

On Happy Ever Afters and Beyond
Hi BDH, howl you doing? Mod R here, creeping it real. Happy Halloween to everyone celebrating! If you take a peak at the poll results from last Friday, we will start the new Ilona Andrews character series with Arabella and follow up with Roman (always the banshee, never the bride with him hehe). As your

Blood Heir Art
A long-running series is an interesting thing. As the story continues through multiple books, readers form a relationship with the characters, and opening the new installment feels like coming home to spend time with old friends. As authors, we are very grateful for the opportunity to touch people’s lives through our writing. At times that

The odd one out
In the year and a half I’ve had the privilege to be your blog mod (how time flies!), a few of you have asked me where I come from, since I live in England but I’m not British or a native English speaker. Transylvania, Ultrasylvania, or Überwald (if you’re of the Pratchett persuasion). Siebenbürgen, the

Fandom Tea Party
Horde, horde, horde. We really have to work on sneakiness. No sooner did I say to be cool and act like nothing happened, that I feel the Earth start to shake and a roaring squeee reaches me in London: KAAAAAAAAAAATE! I guess one could say you loved it hehe. Ilona was so right when she

The BDH Flotilla
In fandom lingo, shipping refers to wanting and advocating for a romantic relationship between two characters. Their names are typically meshed together into a portmanteau which becomes the name of the ship (think Brangelina). You will read things like “I ship these two!” and “I’m boarding that ship!” meaning the readers want to see the

Food, Glorious Food
Hi all, Mod R again. Don’t worry, House Andrews are fine, just deep in the writing cave for Sweep of the Heart, so I get to entertain and make a post about my favourite topic: food! Since the 2020s are determined to go down in history as The Roaring Whatthefucks, to borrow a Bug-ism, and

Muffins, Trucks, and Deleted Scenes
I meant to post this earlier, but I’m sleep deprived and behind my schedule. Last night Gordon had trouble falling asleep. Normally when that happens, he turns on TV, usually something like Ancient Aliens. We listen to the magic aliens who used a vimana to fly to Antarctica and build secret pyramids, and it puts

Pastilla
We are still working on the edits. I am a ball of hate at the moment. Mod R: They want to know about pastilla. Me: The what? Mod R: Pastilla. Opinions, memories, recipes, do you eat it as a dessert or with tea as a snack, what is this magic etc? Do you make it?
