Dark and Stormy
This Saturday I participated in one of my favorite events, Bainbridge Artisan Resource Network's(BARN) annual It Was a Dark and Stormy Night. Six authors, including me, Kevin O'Brien, Warren Read, Lynn Brunelle, Maureen McQuerry, and Erica Bauermeister, read short original works set to the theme of spookiness. There was a band, hors d'oeuvres, wine, Dark and Stormy cocktails, costumes, and lots of fun had by...

| I was lucky enough to receive an advanced reader's edition of this novel. Set during the beginning days of the Nazi regime, primarily in Vienna, The Last Train to London is moving and compelling. Moving between several viewpoints, Clayton creates an ...more | |

| A friend once told me that he preferred living in the world instead of reading about it. I wasn't sure whether to be furious at his condescension or pitying, but I defy anyone in the modern world to find a way to live in 1930s colonial Malaysia witho ...more | |

| This was actually a 4.5 for me, but I'm feeling generous today, and giving it extra points simply for the pure, wild imagination it took to come up with this idea--seriously, I can't even imagine the thought process that might have led to this. The b ...more | |

“Imagine you come upon a house painted brown. What color would you say the house was?"
"Why brown, of course."
"But what if I came upon it from the other side, and found it to be white?"
"That would be absurd. Who would paint a house two colors?"
He ignored my question. "You say it's brown, and I say it's white. Who's right?"
"We're both right."
"Non," he said. "We're both wrong. The house isn't brown or white. It's both. You and I only see one side. But that doesn't mean the other side doesn't exist. To not see the whole is to not see the truth.”

“My experience of life is that it is not divided up into genres; it’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you're lucky.”
