If you are a reader at heart, you might make it to the end. If you are not a reader at heart, it's okay and probably doesn't apply to you. I'm not ranting, I'm... wistful, and wondering what keeps readers from reviewing books.

Please join me in celebrating International Octopus Day (Octo 8!) Its the perfect day to read a favorite octopus story or poem, or if you are so inclined, to write one.
Just for fun, I created a Gerard Liddle avatar at Gaia Online.
My third short story book for kids (age 9-12ish, give or take) is out! This time we delve into the childhood of Gerard Liddle, who appeared as an adult (well, sort of appeared, not giving out spoilers!) in "The Flight To Brassbright".
I had the honor of participating as my book, The Flight To Brassbright, was discussed by the League of Extraordinary Dorks. :D It was a lovely evening, as we all perched on floating rocks and land with a nearby air bridge connecting to incoming airships (you can't not love virtual reality)
Your intepid writerthing was at Motor City Steam Con the weekend of July 22-24, 2016, both as a gawking fangirl and also as a guest writer and panelist. Here's my favorite memories of a wonderful weekend.
It's published, and I've checked over a proof copy and cannot stop hugging it. Tickybox checked on the bucket list! I made a cookbook! And my cover artist, Tanya Paterson, made it look fantastic! Now I can go back to fiction writing. :)
2016 is the year of the Motor City Nexus; a convivial hub where you can dock your airship for repairs and R&R on your journey, where you can have a spot of tea and attend a fascinating lecture or workshop, and where you can let your hair down and enjoy the entertainment provided. Have your passports ready and be prepared for an amazing journey!
In a beautiful crystal pavilion in a richly enchanted land, there will be a special place for literary events as Fantasy Faire celebrates the power of words with its second Literary Festival. Here we shall stage readings, workshops, story-telling sessions and discussion groups, all around the theme of Fantasy.
