Excerpt from LEX TALIONIS Sequel: Iacta Alea Est – Analise Mentions An Old Friend

I allowed myself to become completely distracted by "So You Think You Can Dance" so my post is late today.

Because We Are Awesome

Recently I've been reading some great, eye-opening pieces about women and our astounding contributions to society.

Click Bait, Or Why Slate Should Be Embarrassed About That YA Article

Sure, Ruth Graham just decided to write a stunningly dismissive post about adults needing to be ashamed of reading YA--which has a very obvious framework around 'The Fault … Continue reading Click Bait, Or Why Slate Should Be Embarrassed About That YA Article

Starred Review for Lex Talionis on Publishers Weekly!

This was going to be a post about the best trailers I'd seen recently, I swear. But then I found out that Publishers Weekly had reviewed Lex Talionis. And they loved it. So I thought that just might be a tiny bit more interesting that Paul Haggis' new film. Now excuse me while I quietly … Continue reading Starred Review for Lex Talionis on Publishers Weekly!
