![]() My stories took me to another place, a place I loved. More importantly, I was hooked on writing. ![]() I was anyone I wanted to be as long as there was a twisted tale involved. Over the years, I’ve been an ex-call girl, a secret novelist, a wayward wife, a man who spent fifteen years in prison, a blind psychologist, and a psychic. I had an idea, knew the characters, but I didn’t have a clue where I was going, or maybe I should say where the characters were taking me. Years later, no, decades later, when I needed a diversion because real life became too heavy, I sat down at my computer and started typing out a story. That led me to art school and a career as an illustrator. Wherever there was a piece of paper and pencil, I drew something. Most of the writers in the groups to which I belong claim to have written stories since they were kids. Then I thought longer and harder about what “made it” meant. When Jenny asked me to write a blog post titled My Made-it Moment, I thought, made it? But I haven’t made it. ![]() I’d missed it, but Polly knows what the boat is, and boy, is she sailing it. And I realized that I’d completely missed the boat. ![]() I spotted at least a half-dozen Made It Moments as I read Polly Iyer’s piece–see if you can spot them all And then I came to the Moment Polly cites out of them all. ![]() ![]() ![]() Such as, What is your interpenetration? and why?

Accustomed as we are to perfect verisimilitude in our television docudramas, we presumably rattle our remote controls at our plasma screens in righteous indignation and switch to Fox News. Charles Eastman, into the middle of a real historical event, Little Bighorn, where young Eastman hadn’t really been, after which he starts a romance with another real person, the schoolteacher and poet Elaine Goodale, whom he wouldn’t really meet until much later, and who is also plunked down where, historically, she really wasn’t. These liberties consist of sticking a real person, the Dartmouth-educated mixed-race Sioux Dr. Perhaps you were as shocked as I was to learn from the New York Times a couple of weeks ago that the new cable-television production of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee had taken some liberties with the text of Dee Brown’s 1970 best seller. ![]() ![]() Illustration by Henry Jansen Photo: Annabel Reyes/Courtesy of HBO ![]() ![]() ![]() In Thanksgiving Town, everyone is preparing for the feast in the coming season, and the elves in Christmas Town have resumed assembling presents and baking powdered-sugar gingerbread cookies.Īnd in Halloween Town, we have just enough time to finish preparations for the holiday: cobwebs woven together, pumpkins carved, and black tar-wax candles lit. But when Sally and Zero accidentally uncover a long-hidden doorway to an ancient realm called Dream Town in the forest Hinterlands, she’ll unknowingly set into motion a chain of sinister events that put her future as Pumpkin Queen, and the future of Halloween Town itself, into jeopardy. The townsfolk in Fourth of July Town are testing new rainbow sparklers and fireworks that explode in the formation of a queen's crown, in honor of the Pumpkin Queen who saved them all from a life of dreamless sleep. ![]() Cast into the spotlight and tasked with all sorts of queenly duties, Sally can't help but wonder. The rabbits have resumed painting their pastel eggs in Easter Town. Sally Skellington is the official, newly-minted Pumpkin Queen after a whirlwind courtship with her true love, Jack, who Sally adores with every inch of her fabric seams - if only she could say the same for her new role as Queen of Halloween Town. In Valentine's Town, Queen Ruby is bustling through the streets, making sure the chocolatiers are busy crafting their confections of black velvet truffles and cherry macaroons, trying to make up for lost time, while her cupids still flock through town, wild and restless. Patrick Town, we find the stubborn, sprightly residents all awake-the leprechaun I spoke to days before still in search of his lost pot of gold in the glen, rain clouds heavy in the distance, and rainbows gleaming above the treetops. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Professor Smith has served on a number of New Zealand's national bodies.

But Kate discovers August’s secret, and after a failed assassination attempt the pair must flee for their lives. When the chance arises to keep an eye on Kate, who’s just been kicked out of her sixth boarding school and returned home, August jumps at it. One who can steal a soul with a simple strain of music. All August wants is to be human, as good-hearted as his own father, to play a bigger role in protecting the innocent-but he’s one of the monsters. All Kate wants is to be as ruthless as her father, who lets the monsters roam free and makes the humans pay for his protection. ![]() ![]() Kate Harker and August Flynn are the heirs to a divided city-a city where the violence has begun to breed actual monsters. In this dark urban fantasy from author Victoria Schwab, a young woman and a young man must choose whether to become heroes or villains-and friends or enemies-with the future of their home at stake. There’s no such thing as safe in a city at war, a city overrun with monsters. Dark, violent and monstrous, the novel is a real slow-burn that leaves you wanting to know more. This Savage Song is a uniquely peculiar novel that cleverly combines magic, monsters and music. Living hurts.” (This book is part of #TheReadingQuest – Category: First Book in a Series) “You wanted to feel alive, right? It doesn’t matter if you’re monster or human. ![]() ![]() ![]() I felt bad for her, especially with Jesse manipulating her when she should be devoting all of her cognitive load to self-care for her grief. I noticed in the critical reviews of this book that a lot of people were super hard on Violet, the heroine, but I actually felt like the author did a really good job capturing her stepbrother's betrayal, and her torn feelings over holding him accountable and giving in because giving in was easier. I want a book that really plunges the depths of the characters, exploring the horrors lurking in their psyche. When I read a dark romance, it's not enough that it has smut. When I finally decided to treat myself to the book, I had really high expectations- and honestly, I ended up enjoying it way more than I thought I would, considering that it contained some elements that I don't normally seek out. I've been wanting to read this for a while because my readers kept telling me that this book reminded them of something I wrote, and as a writer, I think that's always really exciting because (presumably) you write the sorts of stories you want to be reading yourself. ![]() |
