I am currently attempting to sell another "duet" in the fantasy genre, but I think Herric's story is finished. Thank you very much for reading them.(less)

An easily read, valuable book for any horse person out there. While some of the sections on training may be somewhat outdated, the theory behind everything is sound: the horse comes first, and it's up to the person to figure out how to commu

This journey into the worlds and works of the Inklings, as filtered through a Christian and Lenten point of view, is fascinating, informative, and worthwhile, even for a non-believer like me.

A well-done look at the lives of several characters leading up to the Battle of the Somme in 1916. There are four principals, but really many more characters for whom the reader comes to care. The title sort of gives away what's going to happen, but ...more

“It isn't always enough, to be right."
Wolf's Cub
Mackay Wood, Wolf's Cub: A Fantasy

“Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth.”
Pablo Picasso

“Deserves it! I daresay he does. Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

“The reason that fiction is more interesting than any other form of literature, to those who really like to study people, is that in fiction the author can really tell the truth without humiliating himself.”
Eleanor Roosevelt

“One always has a better book in one's mind than one can manage to get onto paper.”
Michael Cunningham

“People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy.”
Joss Whedon
