✨Asunder is out in the UK today!✨

Shortlisted for the Nebula and Locus Awards, it’s a fantasy about a woman hellbent on survival…and the talkative man she accidentally binds to her shadow.*

*She was trying to extort him, one thing led to another.

The Language of the Night: Martha Wells takes on colonization Martha Wells often surprises me. Her writing combines an anthropological approach to human societies, keen observation, charismatic characters, and themes that sneak up on you. Her protagonists are .....

Nice article about Queen Demon:

"One of Wells’ most compelling gifts as a writer is the way she interrogates trauma, and trauma is very much in evidence in her recent works, especially in both Murderbot and The Rising World."

Amish style Baked Oatmeal. My SIL made it for me a few years back and ever since I find it very comforting too. It can include variations with fruits, nuts, and grains. And can be frozen in individual portions. I find it a good alternative to making muffins.
