My latest novel, The Watershed Years, is a sequel to the first, In Open Spaces. My first novel made the San Francisco Chronicle's bestseller list, and got a starred review in Publisher's Weekly. They're both set on a ranch in Southeastern Montana, where my great grandparents were homesteaders. ]]> 14168946 Sun, 27 Jan 2008 13:45:10 -0800 Comment366530 http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show_group/13595.other_candidates Russell made a comment in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Contest group:

I loved this movie...Ben Kingsley continues to make incredibly risky choices despite the fact that he could easily coast. Sexy Beast, Mrs. Harris, and now this alcoholic hitman who's about to lose his job because of his drinking. I'm not a huge Tea Leoni fan, but I thought her manic energy fit this role, too. Great flick. ]]> 13727981 Thu, 24 Jan 2008 07:12:25 -0800 Comment357359 http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show_group/13405.Heath_Ledger Russell made a comment in the Movies We've Just Watched group:

Jesus, what a jerk (Gibson, not Heath, obviously). This really is sad. Like others have said, Ledger obviously had the chops to become huge, and could have taken the easy road with star-building roles, but instead challenged himself. I thought he was great in Knight's Tale, too. But Brokeback was brilliant. He nailed the taciturn, stoic cowboy. ]]>
