POD, Self Publishing and Independent Publishing (Free subscription) | yesterday
A conversation the other day with an author considering self-publishing veered off on a tangent neither of us had expected. We started out discussing his perspective book on sweet confectionary over the past fort years. Needless to say, we began with a long indulgent conversation on the sweets we used to buy with our pocket money pennies when we were young. Both being in our early forties, we rattled...

Good Morning... Or should I say, Good rainy morning. The current temperature in the ATL is 45 degrees... and it is raining. Maaaannnn, I KNOW I should've taken off the entire week of Thanksgiving.

I only left the house...

You know, I love Saturdays. And the only thing I don't like about them is that they are over much too soon. Saturdays need to be 100 hours long or something like that. LOL Anyway, I am STILL in bed. Shame on ME. Not really. I am BONE TIRED. We worked very hard yesterday. I work from 10-7 pm, and around 5:30, I started hollering all over the place: "Ya'll done got down! Ya'll done worked a broad...

I went through a reading slump recently that was kind of driving me crazy. Really, it started in Halifax. I optimistically packed several books in my suitcase and then George and I ended up at a Chapters bookstore (oh Chapters, how I missed you) so I bought myself a copy of Keeping Faith by Jodi Picoult. What a crazy person I was. There was no time for reading! Not really, anyway. I did manage to...

Rent It My Sister's Keeper: There's no denying the powerful themes on display in My Sister's Keeper ; parents will have some hard times watching the movie about a childhood leukemia victim. On the other hand this movie, adapted from Jodi Picoult's novel, has been fairly radically altered from its printed form - the gist is the same, the ending quite different - something that may rankle purists looking...

Star Trek In rebooting the franchise, J.J. Abrams faced the daunting challenge of pleasing long-time Trekkies and roping in new viewers who think 'Live long and prosper' is a slogan for an insurance company. This is not your father's Star Trek, but he'd probably like it too (begrudgingly). Buy it . Also on Blu-ray (see Todd Gilchrist's review for more on that edition.) Add to Netflix queue | Buy at...

After reading six books straight from the Narnia series, I felt I needed a good dose of adult realism. Ahh, Jodi Picoult, just the ticket, get myself immersed in some real life issues and away from children's fantasy and C. S. Lewis' Biblical retelling. Like the other Picoult books I have read, this one deals with some social, medical, political; and, to my dismay, religious issues. While it is certainly...
