So I’m back. …whew. It’s been a long ten days. As some of you may recall, I was helping my dad and stepmom pack up their house and driving everything from Arizona to Atlanta. Packing up a 4500 square foot house is hard—packing up such a house that is jammed to the rafters is harder, […]

Well, my bags are packed, my plane leaves tomorrow, and I am off to the wilds of Arizona to help my dad and stepmom move! There will be packing, and then I get to drive a dog-grooming across most of the country, including Texas. (Oh, Texas…my old nemesis…we meet again!) This is a serious wham-bam-convoy […]
Thanks to everybody who let me know that “Digger” was being aggregated by one of those slimy apps making money off other creator’s work. Blargh!

So I’m reading this thriller by Sara Rayne—in the interests of not spoilering, I won’t tell you the title—and it starts off with a female serial killer in an asylum. Great! Fine! That’s just what we like in our thrillers! And now her sister has turned up, in the same asylum, who is also a […]
You didn’t think you were getting off this easy, did you? This has always been one of my favorites, probably because a great many people act surprisingly rationally, (instead of everybody acting batshit crazy) and it contains one of the greatest lines in all fairytale-dom. Compared to the sheer cracked-ness of “Master-Maid,” though, this one […]
