I’m feeling the burn in my calves this morning so I’m letting discretion be my valor today. I’ve noticed a marked improvement in my mood and outlook this week. I can’t help but think the walking is helping. <\/p>\n
In the meantime, here are a couple of the books I’ve been reading lately – both from authors who are members of the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers, my local writing group. <\/p>\n
First, Stephen Merlino’s Jack of Souls<\/a>. Classic epic fantasy with a touch of humor and not a bit of whimsy. It’s only book one and he’s working on book two. I highly recommend it. It was a ton of fun to read. <\/p>\n Second, and only because that’s the order I read it in, Alessandra Clarke’s Rider’s Revenge.<\/a> This is a horse and sorcery book that had me trying to find spare moments in the day where I could find out what happens next. There will be a sequel, but I’m not sure what state that’s in. I got hooked into the series debut and I even forgave the minor cliff hanger at the end.<\/p>\n So, something to read. Both new indie-fantasy but I’m reading some new SF by a fellow SFWA member now. I’ll keep you posted. <\/p>\n Tomorrow’s another day and with any luck at all, I’ll talk to you then. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m feeling the burn in my calves this morning so I’m letting discretion be my valor today.
