Increasingly all I want is a warm, dry, comfortable place to keep my books, and the time to read them.

It’s beginning to feel a lot like list-mas.

Both @timakers.bsky.social and @jeremyteg.bsky.social on this @fanfiaddict.bsky.social list. Will it be our last Daily Double of 2025? Will you read The Last Dragon Knight and Tower of the Tyrant before the year is out?

As always, I find Swan’s most casual lines the most delightful:

β€œI shall return to what came next, for there is a great deal of very mortal brutality about to unfold.”

My brain has been mulling the intersection of Tolkien’s service in WWI, the game Trench Crusade, and what LotR would have been in that timeline

I've lived in Tennessee for just over two weeks. I love it here. It's the best move we've ever made.

These are the worst drivers I have ever seen

Me, moving to TN: Man, I can't wait to never deal with an HOA again

Finished The Sword Unbound by Gareth Hanrahan last night. Man, I feel bad for whatever book I read next. (Not really, since it’s Swan’s Tyranny of Faith)

Thirty-three (and a half!) years ago, this fountain witnessed the first moments of our relationship. We had to come by one last time before we moved to wish it well!

Chris Pratt: I rolled a seven!

Sam Jackson: I have HAD IT with these manger-fording robbers on my meadow-fracking tiles!

Jack Black, in annoying voice: I have wood for sheep! Anyone? Wood for sheep?

Keanu Reeves: Wait, whose turn is it?

It got some advertising, but I can’t remember where I saw it. Maybe bundled with something I was streaming? So it was very narrow band. I think they knew it wasn’t going to be a blockbuster

I'm pleased to announce that Baen has formally reverted the rights to Wraithbound. This means I'm free to start producing books two and three (once I write them, ahem). There are good things in the works, my friends. Good things indeed!
