I think the song “Fire” by the Brit band Kasabian might be my favorite song. Ever.This is a hell of a notion. I played guitar in a blues band for years, and I love many types of music. I have a nearly flawless memory for lyrics and can recall thousands of songs going back 30-odd years (a neat trick at parties, if I ever went to parties.)But it’s not really that complicated: it’s a pattern recog...

Buried in Benidorm by L.H. Thomson
" 2012 10 08
Spanish ex-priest solves several murders on La Costa Brava, pondering God and the Catholic Church throughout. Very good. "
Buried in Benidorm by L.H. Thomson
" The premise is an interesting twist-an ex-priest as a detective on the Spanish coast. He lives on a houseboat, doesn't pay his bills, drinks and gambles too much. Perhaps a little unbelievable that he is able to unravel such a complicated plot. So... " Read more of this review »

Topics Mentioning This Author

“Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.”
Terry Pratchett, Jingo

“Write. Start writing today. Start writing right now. Don’t write it right, just write it –and then make it right later. Give yourself the mental freedom to enjoy the process, because the process of writing is a long one. Be wary of “writing rules” and advice. Do it your way.”
Tara Moss

“There are two kinds of folks who sit around thinking about how to kill people: psychopaths and mystery writers.”
Richard Castle

“A child can teach an adult three things: to be happy for no reason, to always be busy with something, and to know how to demand with all his might that which he desires.”
Paulo Coelho

“Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.”
Baltasar Gracian
