    I came up with a wild idea for my Sunday food blogs. What if I combined three of my favorite things into one place? Cooking, photography, and reading? It started with an inkling of an idea when a fellow author posted an exuberant review of a dish he’d made. It grew into a wild hare…

    Dorothy Grant published a short series of articles on her blog that I would like to draw your attention to. She’s the brilliant, quieter half, of the man responsible for one of the best new series of Space Operas coming out right now, Peter Grant. I’ve reviewed his work a few times, and will keep…

    I was asked to review a novel about the history of aviation, and I agreed because I spent a lot of my younger years in the Civil Air Patrol, and obsessed with planes… As you will see, I think I would only recommend this book if you are very interested in Av history, about which…

    I picked Take the Star Road, by Peter Grant, to read for this review because I love science fiction that harks back to the age of exploration, that celebrates humanity’s hunger for the stars, and most of all, tells a good story. I was rewarded with everything I had hoped for in this book. The…
