Join me in The Dragon's Library for review of shows, movies, games, and books. This is my review of The Last Stand of Mary Good Crow, the latest historical fantasy novel by Rachel Aaron. In 1866, a magical crystal was discovered in Medicine Rocks, Montana, and promised to usher in a new technological revolution. Mary Good Crow is a half-Lakota girl, rejected by both her country and people, who possesses the ability to hear the crystal's song. After Josie Price, niece of Sam Price and new owner of the largest mining company, comes to town, the two of them team up with a crystal powered gunslinger to find Sam Price's last big claim. Follow them on a fantastical journey, down into the twisted mines.

Smack and Gabi cover a lot of reading ground from March and April. Smack gives a teaser about her faves (further discussion pending Gabi catching up…some day); Gabi waxes poetic about feathered dragons, Faustian bargains, violin prodigies, and donut-selling aliens; and we both gush about a gross and incredible werewolf horror novel. Smack's been listening to a lot of popcorn audiobooks while Gabi pre-gamed for Book Crawl. We finish by reminiscing about nice dragons - one of our all-time favorites! Main books discussed include: The Light at the Bottom of the World by London Shah Stealing Thunder (#1) and Gifting Fire (#2) by Alina Boyden Fae Games trilogy by Karen Lynch Inferno by Dante Alighieri (translated by Mary Jo Bang, illustrations by Henrik Drescher) Light from Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki Mongrels by Stephen Graham-Jones Impact Winter by Travis Beacham Rylee Adamson series by Shannon Mayer Hunt the Stars (Starlight's Shadow #1) by Jessie Mihalik Mr. Wrong Number by Lynn Painter Scorpica by G.R.

We explore some of our favorite crime novels, the genre at large as part of mystery, and pick apart the differences between detective novels (tending to support law & order) vs caper novels (tending to be anti-establishment or radical) and the exceptions. Crime and caper novels can be historic or modern, and cross every genre. What do you need to think about when writing crime stories? We have some ideas. … Continue...Episode 102 – Crime and Euphemisms

Welcome back to There's Stories Everywhere and the pop up episode: Vetting ideas. Let's be realistic, if you are anything like me, story fiend, and I assume you are, there are more ideas in your brain than you have any idea what to do with. On any given day, I have a dozen or more things pop in and say hi, I'm here, ready for my close up and I go woah NOPE full stop get in line because I already have a bunch of ideas who have done the same thing from the day before and the day before that and the day before that, you get the process. However, if you've got all these ideas: how do you decide who comes next? Case in point, I just finished writing the third of the Sisters novels. That was a major accomplishment for me. It is not the first time I've written an entire trilogy for essentially giggles, but it's the first time I've completed the entire thing before publishing the first one. That officially clears my plate for what should come next which is...pulls out trusty idea folder....any of these. Ugh. I've got entire series baking somewhere inside my brain, but heck if I can figure out what I'm writing from project to project. This is where vetting your ideas comes in. I could, pretty literally given how I type, start hammering away at any of the stories I have upstairs in the archives of my brain. However, as a writer with a limited amount of time, I need projects I'm going to be able to see through to completion and not things just to pass the time. So which ideas make the cut? Here's a few things to consider: Does it have a beginning and an end? I believe it is writer Craig Martelle I got the idea of writing the beginning and the ending of each piece before I start hammering out the middle. Or it might have been Chris Fox. It was a guy, his name starts with a C. What about the main character? Can I see them clearly and do I know how they ended up in the situation which begins the book? In the Sisters novels, I knew exactly how the two of them got into the mess they're in and why they hate each other. That's enough to see some sparks fly. Does the idea engage me enough that I'm still thinking about it when I'm doing something else? This might be the single most important thing, at least in my mind, for starting a project. If it isn't at least a little bit consuming, I will find something else to do. I got this idea from Rachel Aaron of 2k to 10k. With those thoughts in mind, you can see your way toward sorting the what comes next pile. Well, Story Fiends, that's its for this episode of There's Stories Everywhere.

Over the last decade, Asheville has become a mecca of breweries, but perhaps none of them have the dedication to history and brewing as a passion as the improbably tiny Zebulon Artisan Ales helmed by long time brewer, former homebrew shop owner and man of odd business hours, Mike Karnowski. Drew sat down with Mike and covered the beer (including a really satisfying 1% Mild on handpump and other treats), the business and the meaning of beer in a world suddenly awash in breweries.

Clare is back from Jamaica and has a cold. So, if you think she normally has a sultry voice, you’re going to love her on this episode! TB kicks off by telling us about her latest disaster. She’s fractured her hand but kept on writing (kinda) through the pain. Fiction doesn’t stop for fractures in her household! She’s within touching distance of finishing her Cotswolds novel, due out in June. Whoop! Clare also says that in between lounging on a Jamaican beach and drinking ALL the rum punch, she too has moved her novel forward and is now over halfway through her first draft. Kudos. Clare & TB were overwhelmed with comments this week, a lovely problem to have, so please keep them coming. They promise a shout-out, and they love to hear from you. The topic of the week is word counts: should you care about them? Both Clare & TB give a definitive yes and no answer. Don’t you just hate that? The thing is, though, word counts can be motivating if used correctly, but don’t use them as a stick to beat yourself with. That’s not helpful. Clare shares her best and worst word count months so far this year, causing TB’s jaw to drop. TB says she struggles sometimes with keeping her head above water in her drive to hit her word counts. However, both agree some kind of measurement to track your progress – word count or hour count - is essential if you want to make this your career and have the ability to plan ahead. Clare has a light bulb moment and is overjoyed! Clare mentions Neil Gaiman doesn’t use word counts, rather he counts the number of pages he fills in his notebook. (Listen to the interview on the Tim Ferriss podcast here: https://tim.blog/2019/03/28/neil-gaiman/). Clare & TB both agree writing in sprints and with no distractions will help you get your words down and achieve your word count goals. Two good books on the subject are Chris Fox’s 5,000 Words Per Hour: Write Faster, Write Smarter (https://www.amazon.com/000-Words-Hour-Faster-Smarter-ebook/dp/B00XIQKBT8) and Rachel Aaron’s 2k to 10k: Writing Faster, Writing Better, and Writing More of What You Love (https://www.amazon.com/2k-10k-Writing-Faster-Better-ebook/dp/B009NKXAWS). If you have a comment about the episode, please leave it in the comments below or email lesbianswhowrite@gmail.com Also, if you have a suggested topic for an episode, please let Clare and TB know! Join them next week when they’re going to be discussing lesbian fiction genres.

Once again, The Priestesses go to the movies! This time, for a look at Anna Biller's occult-inspired tale of nightmarish beauty, The Love Witch. How does fantasy shape desire and love?

In this exciting installment about syncretism, borrowing, and appropriation, we're joined by our scientist-friend and "experienced witch," Gary. What are some of the things Pagans have taken from elsewhere? What makes something "appropriation?" When is it ethical to borrow? If we're coming from another faith, tradition, or practice, what do we bring with us into Paganism that we maybe thought we'd left behind? Along the journey, we also touch on: The pitfalls of intent, issues of identity, learning and exchange, multicultural influences, supersession, our relationship and responsibility to what we take, trends in contemporary Pagan traditions, re-interpreting deities, the importance of honesty, reinventing the wheel, tradition vs. clean slate, co-creation, leftovers, looking forward with intent, and much, much more.

Daily word count is one of the metrics many authors track to ensure they are moving toward completion of their projects. One of the struggles is increasing that word count to get more work done, but doing so in a way that doesn’t sacrifice quality for quantity. Today’s guest has discovered a way to do […]

To his mother, he’s a disappointment. To his siblings – the few that take any notice of him – he’s the object of ridicule and scorn. Being the youngest child in a large family can be tough, but for a dragon like Julius it’s literally a matter of life and death.Now that he’s been kicked out of his home, sealed in human form and dumped in a strange and dangerous city, Julius has one chance to prove he can be a real dragon, the heartless, scheming, self-centered, power obsessed son that makes his mother proud.There’s just one problem. Julius is the worst, most unthinkable thing, a dragon could be. Julius is nice.   See the complete show notes and links at http://aldusbaker.com/41-rachel-aaron
