بازنویسی رمان و فرایند روح‌فرسای نوشتن
هفتۀ پیش تلاش کردم فید (خوراک) وبلاگم را به وبلاگِ گودریدز اضافه کنم. ظاهراً گودریدز نهتنها با راستچین کردن میانهای ندارد، با نشانیهای فارسینوشت هم خوب نیست. و از آنجایی که نشانی مطالبم یک تکۀ فارسی داشت، لینکها به مقصد نمیرسیدند.
بنابراین تصمیم گرفتم هر مطلبِ مرتبط با نوشتن را دستی اضافه کنم.

The Laboratory of Dr. Grey - Chapter Two
Chapter Two
Deep in a dark, untouched forest, hidden in the middle of a wide valley, which was engulfed on either side by dense trees and undergrowth, was a stone laboratory.

Good news about Wine of Violence and a belated look at August 14th in history
I want to thank all of you who asked Amazon to tell Priscilla Royal’s publisher that you wanted to read the first book in her medieval mystery series, Wine of Violence, as a Kindle.

Interview with Tana French
Dublin crime novelist Tana French has the kind of critical reviews that other writers would…well, die for. Her debut murder mystery,
In the Woods
