Critical Acclaim for Loki of Midgard

And then Sare died of happiness. So in my attempt to be a professional about this book-publishing business, however self-published I am, I sought out professional reviews, namely from Kirkus Reviews and from IndieReader, and lo… yesterday afternoon I got my reviews. So, in case you didn’t know, publishing houses (and us self-published types) go […]

It's different from the moments all before, when you suspect you have it and are busy freaking out about possibly dying from it.

Recipe Exchange!

Hey all, I just got an email inviting me to a recipe exchange, and I’m totally going there, but as I started thinking about which recipe I would share, I thought, you know, I hate to just share it with one stranger. So I decided to post it here, too. If you want to join […]
