Sookie Stackhouse novels: Has anyone read these?

ShareThis

I don’t really expect anyone of my acquaintance to have read these things.

That being said, the author seems hugely successful. I was just curious because her vampires, fairies, and other creatures seem to inhabit a section of the country I’ve tried all my life to escape. If someone has read these, can you please tell [...]

Girl Genius Online Comics

Girl Genius is the best online comic ever! I would have a great little graphic here but my website is experiencing technical difficulties. These difficulties are probably due to a component error between the chair and the keyboard and will be rectified when I figure out what I did wrong.

In the meantime, I want to [...]

I get paid in Amazon gift certificates, so it has to reach a certain amount [...]

It’s October!

ShareThis

If I lived somewhere with seasons, the weather would be getting cooler like it does in the movies, and the leaves would be turning. I love October! It’s the month of my favorite holiday, and it’s also my anniversary (on the 26th).

Halloween is my favorite holiday. It’s pagan in origin, has been [...]
