So, I’ve been playing Empyrion, which I enjoyed very much, but I am kind of getting fed up with it. I really want a feel good game, something pretty, possibly even cute. Something like Stardew Valley or Recettear. Failing that, I’d love something absorbing. Middle Earth: Shadow of War is coming out, and I’m excited

Rejected Princesses
A reader sent in this wonderful website, Rejected Princesses, that profiles princesses who won’t make the cut at Disney, because “well-behaved women seldom make history.” I absolutely loved the Black Agnes one. Enjoy!
The Most Disgusting Thing
Saw this on Facebook and thought we could all use a diversion. What is the most disgusting dinner you were forced to eat as a child and have never eaten as an adult? This. This is holodetz. Traditional winter “holiday” food. Pardon me while I gag. It starts with pig feet. I kid you not,

The Song of Semiramis
Lisa writes, I’m a professional songwriter and wrote this song after reading Magic Breaks. Inspired by Kate meeting Semiramis in Mishmar, the song is written from a Matriarch’s pov and tells the story of a mother’s love for her son, his eventual betrayal, and her promised vengeance. I hope that you enjoy it even half

We are working on Magic Triumphs. Here is a sampling of some songs from the soundtrack. I need a new album or two. Any suggestions? 🙂

Have to keep those baby cups clean.
The Music of Antti Martikainen
I bought this yesterday to add to my soundtracks to write with and I’ve listened to it six times now. This is such a perfect blend of East and West. Is this fun or what?
Grey Muggy Friday
I’m supposed to be writing, but we’ve had some personal stress and the book is coming out, which typically makes me a basket case. I drank a cup of stiff British tea. We’ll see if Bigelow can pull me out of my semi-comma. First, important announcement: Jeaniene Frost will be joining us in Atlanta for

King Arthur
Gordon took me on a date to see King Arthur and it was amazing. Loved, loved, loved. Loved everything about it. Loved that they didn’t do yet another rehash of Morgana, Lancelot, Guinevere, loved the special effects, the action, the dialogue. Excellent movie. Go to see in theaters if you can, because it’s big.
Artyarns Club – Thumbs Down
So I decided to treat myself to a “luxury” Artyarns Club. It’s one of those deals, where they send you yarn and pattern every month, and you make cool stuff with it. The club was pricey – $66 – but this is pretty much my only hobby at the moment and I really wanted to
