I lost my father on December 14. I'm not really ready to write about it yet–suffice for now to say that I was devoted to him, and even though he was 91, I wanted more time with him. He bought me my first computer back in the early 1990s when I begged him, "It will help me finish my Book." You know, the Book, the Great American Novel every writer wants to write. Dad said, "You'll never finish wr...

“We all are weak, in one way or another. It does not matter the species. Some times that weakness is a strength in dusguise. Sometimes it is our utter undoing. Some times it is both. A wise man seeks to find a lesson from it. A fool lets it control and destroy him.
And sometimes the wise man is the fool.”
Christie Golden, Rise of the Horde

“It is as much of a mistake to underestimate yourself as to overestimate yourself.”
Christie Golden, Arthas: Rise of the Lich King

“Ner'zhul... Gul'dan. Two of the darkest names ever to sully the history of my people. And yet, Drek'thar tells me that once Ner'zhul was admired, even beloved, and truly cared for the people whos spiritual leader he was. It is hard to reconcile those words with what Ner'zhul has become, but I try. I try because I want to understand.
And yet, try as I might... I do not.”
Christie Golden
