I’m quite certain I’m not the only person who has, either. Phrases like these boost your confidence. They make you believe you can accomplish an...

Well who is Abraham because Boaz has always been who we were suppose to want r...

Fan Fiction
Fan Fiction is perhaps the worst category of fiction. Respected authors hate it and accomplished readers avoid it like the plague. Of course, there are dedicated fans who love their particular fiction franchise and they occasionally read fan fiction.

Warriors Rise, Snippet #2
Alastair looked around as a thick shade began to set in around the trees and trickling stream, off to the right of their trail. The dazzle in the air consuming him by day, began to fade as did the bright shades of green, brown, white, yellow and blue. The surrounding trees, plants and lush forest...

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,
