Have you noticed that some or <gulp> most of the reviews you’ve written are being deleted by Amazon, lately? Yeah, it’s a big club. Some history. First, a bit of history about Amazon reviews, so you can understand why Amazon are doing what they’re doing. Amazon have always had a “review policy” that determined what was an appropriate […]

The exact moment this post published was the northern hemisphere’s 2020 Summer Solstice (and the winter solstice for everyone down-under). Tarot cards, pagan festivals, and the ancient cultures all celebrated the summer solstice. It’s thought that Stonehenge may have been built expressly to mark the summer solstice–which was generations worth of effort for the changing

As I write this post (which is somewhere in your past, by the time you read it), I have just fi nished plotting the second book of the Magorian & Jones series, which took several days longer than I expected it to. I suspect I’ll get faster at it as the series progresses, but there’s

I’ve been sliding a lot of new pages and content onto the site, lately. If this is your first time to the site, you might not have noticed it yet. If you’re returning (hi!), then you might have missed it because it’s new. So I thought I’d draw your attention to one page in particular:

Why Ebooks Are Forever and Print Books Don’t Last

Leave a Comment / Book Culture / May 25, 2020 / 4 minutes of reading

The ebook versus print book topic tends to polarize people–readers are passionate about their print books…or not. I am very firmly in the ebook camp. I have been reading electronically for decades (yes, for more than 20 years), and these days resent having to read print books, if forced to it. I avoid it where
