Commandment Two: Choose which family members to kiss on the lips
I remember in my particular family that we were forced to kiss all aunties and uncles on the lips and sometimes three or four times, depending on the person. Those toothless smooches and wet kisses left me nauseated so many times and... Read more of this blog post »

Crafting descriptions that involve the senses is an important job for a writer. For a reader it helps them to fully immerse in a book, to feel like they have entered a new world – from the creak as a secret portal opens, to the grunting cry of a downed orc or the hiss of a leak in a spacesuit. So...

Vera Q.'s blog:
C'è qualcosa di diabolico nel morire senza morire. E la mia testa perde pensieri nel desiderio di non si sa cosa. E non voglio più bene a niente e a nessuno. Nemmeno alle storie maledette: persino il gocciolio del sangue, in questo deserto, mette sete.

A moon shadow visited North Carolina. It traveled as only light can, streaking across the sky in a strange and majestic palette. The sky held snakes of white, crescents of red, coronas of brightness. Darkness and light played with each other and against each other — fun and powerful, serious and...

Tom knew better than to tastelessly toast but I could see the sinful seduction in his stare. He clearly still wanted me and I wondered if all men were just charming cheaters. I hoped for Alice's sake that Tom and I never surrendered to our dirty desires to have steamy sex.

I thought about 'Nightfall by Isaac Asimov' for today's solar eclipse. How lucky it was we could view the solar eclipse with a peace of mind and in many different ways compared to the short story.

The word for this book idea is: epistemology. Why do you believe what you believe? Are the foundations of what you believe as solid as you would wish?

My book 'The Sorceress and the Sun King' has a new cover on Amazon.

Interview with Tom Perrotta
Fresh off the series finale of HBO's adaptation of The Leftovers, Perrotta is back with a look at sex and midlife second-guessing. "I'm very interested in sex and the way that ideas about sex and what's permissible keep changing. So the fun of the book is to take a middle-aged person and plunge them into what is a youthful world of dating and sex," he says....more
