Nonessential: The Expansion Paradox J. E. Seanachai Published in 2011 ISBN 978-1463623180 Part of me wants to say that this is a book that critics will look to for decades to come, when they need to define or describe the author’s work. Continue reading Nonessential: The Expansion Paradox – a review and a giveaway  JE Seanachai has finally (FINALLY, I tell you!) released Nonessential: The Expansion Paradox This is from my good friend and cohort, the author of Dead Bird in the Weeds and Haunted Voices From My Past, both of which I also recommend. Nonessential: The Expansion Paradox is a huge, sprawling tale set in a maze Continue reading New Book Release (and it’s not one of mine!) I read the bridge advice columns in newspapers. Don’t misunderstand – I don’t play bridge. I’ve never played. My closest friend for thirty-five years now (except for my wife, of course) does play bridge, and he’s tried to explain the game to me from time to time, but when Continue reading “Ghost Notes” by Art Edwards – a review I just finished reading a book that was quite appallingly bad.

It is difficult to imagine that there is a nation or people on Earth that has Continue reading Dead Bird in the Weeds – a Novel by J.E. Seanachaí Announcing my Immediate Resignation From the Business of Writing Reviews I wrote a book review. I’m not going to link to it here. You can find it if you search hard enough. The point here is not to bring yet more attention to the review itself, but to state the position to which it has brought Continue reading A Resignation Letter This is a book that seems to blur the distinction between self-publishing and micro-presses. I reached this conclusion because it was listed by Amazon as having been published by CreateSpace. Since CreateSpace should only show as the publisher of record if the book has been self-published, it came as somewhat of a surprise to me to Continue reading My Non-Review of “The Dog at the Signpost” |
