Dragon*Con 2007 Bay-bee!

*Does happy dance of sheer geeky joy.*
Won’t be here after today, so don’t go a-lookin’.  I’m off to Dragon*Con as of tomorrow.  Yay for me!  I’ll be gone all weekend, not sleeping much and following around the Whedonverse track like the stalky fangirl I am.  James Marsters (Spike from Buffy) will be there.  Coincidentally, I’m [...]

Plugging Along

Not much to say, other than I’m still plugging along.  Haven’t had much chance to read Harry Potter 7, so I’m not ready to discuss the Wizardling’s exploits as yet.  Still plugging away at my fairy tale, wondering how I got so bad at this writing thing.  This is what happens when you’re out of [...]

Halfway Through Harry

So I’m halfway through Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows.  It’s good and all, and my trips to the wizarding world are always fun and everything, but…I don’t know.  Am I the only one who thinks that the last two books may have been ghostwritten?  Because I think they were.  It just doesn’t feel [...]

Crystal Singer Review

My third review for Pink Raygun is up.  You should check it out.  I really admire what Lisa & John are doing over there.  It’s nice to see girl power in geekdom.  Anyway, I’m going to try and be more active on the "Trickster’s Library" part of this blog, since I’ve been ridiculously slack so [...]

From the Stacks: Crystal Singer

With August soon approaching, it seemed appropriate to highlight one of the amazing authors scheduled to make an appearance at the much anticipated Dragon*Con.  For those of us East Coasters (or folks who don’t mind traveling), that would be from August 31 to September 2 in Atlanta, GA.  What better way to spend Labor Day [...]

From the Stacks: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

I’m usually not much of a mystery reader, but I’ll occasionally make an exception.  For the longest time, I didn’t read mysteries because none of them could match up (in my mind) to Sir Arther Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes mysteries.  A little unfair, I later realized, to compare with a series that basically created the [...]
