It is with some sorrow that I say goodbye to the Darkwood tour. I am still not back in form since the death of my father two weeks ago and I feel like I didn’t get the full benefit of the tour. I wanted to interview the author. I believe she’s a professor. I think [...]

Last day on the blog tour for Michelle Knudsen’s The Dragon of Trelian. I’m sorry to say that Technorati’s most popular books page has been broken for a month now. Hmmm.

First things, first. I have no excuse, Noel warned me that the email Feedburner sent to subscribers last Friday had a bad link in it. I have no idea why I didn’t think it was necessary to send out a follow-up email, warning you to get your links off the site and not out of the email. [...]
