Somebody once told me that if life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade. I responded that while that may be true, if life gives you lemonade then you don't need the lemons to begin with.

“There is a very thin line between fighting for what you believe to be right and becoming that which you are fighting against.”
― Mark Sheldon

“The dangerous paradox of living in this age of instant communication is that the act of communication has become something of a virtue. Apparently, because people have the ability to communicate instantly, they have lost the ability to communicate at all.”
― Mark Sheldon
― Mark Sheldon
“It would not be completely unreasonable to suggest that if J.K. Rowling, Dan Brown, and Dean Koontz were to get together in a time machine and travel back to early 1982 so that they could have a drunken, care-free, passionate orgy with Douglas Adams, that I might have been the love child of such a coming together.”

Let's just say that it's a good thing Goodreads is not a video chat site, as I am blushing quite profusely right now.
Thank you so much, Lucinda. Your kind words mean more to me than I can possibly say. :)
Have a wonderful week!
Dear Mark, Thank you for giving literature fans such uniquely imaginative and creative books 'The Noricin Chronicles'- your work is captivating and beautifully written and i loved every bit of it down to the last detail. I am an admirer of many writers including JK Rowling, JRR Tolkien, Chris Evans, Terry Brooks, Robin Hobb etcetera i could go on, but i cannot compare your work to any other author as it is so uniquely indavidual and for this reason i know that i will read and re-read your work again and again. xxx

Hi Mark, I wanted to reply to your message.It's my pleasure, and although I haven't previously read the earlier books in your series, the description of Scorpio Rising sounded intriguing. It seems I've a habit of jumping into the middle of series as I've done so recently too! Look forward to (hopefully) reading.
