There is a fascinating piece on the Publishers Weekly website about people who want to return Breaking Dawn because they felt betrayed by the lack of quality of the book. Apparently, these fans are discussing protest via returns. (Breaking Trust by Sara Nelson)
“The discussion about returns this past week, however, has meant something different: [...]
Every review I write is edited by my friend Chelsea Campbell. She’s also a writer whose young adult superhero novel is making the rounds via her agent. Now, she has had her first interview, so I decided to celebrate by linking it here. When this book, The Rise of Renegade X, gets [...]
I feel bad because I haven’t posted a review in two weeks. Honestly, I was afraid it had been even longer than that. SakuraCon just happened last weekend, a big NW anime convention that is pretty important to my side/hobby business, The Otaku Survival Guides. My brain kind of took a hiatus on everything [...]

One book storage trick I’ve learned though, is that if you’ve got [...]
Wow I want one of these! From Boing Boing today, there is a picture of a bookcase that was designed into a staircase, when the people remodeled their house.
Another cool thing in Boing Boing today was a link to io9 with an article about encouraging a fandom. A lot of them seem obvious, [...]
All right, check out the list of book winners here. Check out the new message board layout while you are there.
Congrats, and I love it when I can give away books, so hopefully I’ll have another giveaway in the near future. Just that silly money thing that gets in my way some days. But [...]
And my adventure of cursing phpBB is over. That’ll teach me to accidently use a style thats for an older version. So the forum looks ugly agian, but its working.
