  • Podcast Update: Episode 1 is LIVE

    Well, I’ve finally done the first episode of my podcast. Unfortunately you can’t read it here, as I can’t currently afford the space upgrade necessary to upload audio posts. So I’ve created a Tumblr just for my podcasts, and you can find it here. I’ll post here each time there’s a new podcast uploaded, and…

  • Graduation from Hogwarts: the end of Harry Potter and my adolescence

    Unless you live under a rock, you’re aware that the final Harry Potter film was recently released. If you know any fans of the series (statistically speaking, you probably do), you have somewhat of an inkling just how big a fucking deal this is. For me, Harry Potter ending represents the ending of my childhood.…

  • Of Duct Tape and Spaniels: How to Express Four Years of Magic in a Single Letter?

    I am trying to write a letter. Ironically it’s the hardest thing in the world for me to do — me, a writer. But this is no ordinary letter — it’s a letter to someone who may go down in history as the single most important influence in my life. Ms. Loudon was my drama…

  • Voting closed: results are…..(drumroll please)…….

    [polldaddy poll=4622143] I’m apparently doing a podcast! Of course, I’d pretty much already made up my mind, but I did want to see how many of my readers would actually listen to a podcast or if it’d just be me circle-jerking to the sound of my own voice (and yes, I do hate the sound…

  • On Podcasts and disability

    This should be said. I know that some of you are aware that I don’t listen to podcasts, but I’m thinking of doing one regardless. I feel I should be clear on this. I have an auditory processing deficit. This doesn’t mean I can’t hear — my physical ears work fine. It does mean that…

  • Just a thought: Movie Rants and Podcasts (and there’s a poll!)

    I may start ranting about movies on this blog, as well as books and my own writing/writer’s life. Because I have a lot of rants about films and I may as well get them out here because they frequently overlap with my rants about books. Also: if I started doing a podcast that contained said…

  • 30 in 30: Day 14 (in which I briefly talk about the Chaotic Canine, as portrayed by Thomas King)

    Favorite character in a book (of any sex or gender) This is kind of a difficult question. I mean, I’ve read like a thousand books (I wish life had achievement trackers like WoW does) so choosing one character out of all those stories is sort of a monumental task. But, eh, what the hell. Coyote…

  • 30 in 30: Day 13 (in which I talk about ducks and how Chris Weitz is a complete fucking ass and should suffer for destroying The Golden Compass)

    Favorite childhood book OR current favorite YA book (or both!) My favorite book as a child was Drakestail, which is an old French folk tale. Mom would read it with me, and we’d sing out the repeating chorus of Quack! Quack! Quack! When shall I get my money back? together with great relish and glee.…

  • .a small confession.

    I spend a lot of my time wishing I was more creative. Or. Well.  Wishing I could express my latent creativity with more ease. I see pictures in my mind and I can’t get them to form on paper. I draw stick people and my handwriting is crap. I create songs without words, but cannot…
