We know it’s best to go home. The grown-ups need to clean broken glass from the floor and make a temporary fix of the windows. It won’t t Read more of this blog post »

Breaking the Vicious Cycle by Paska D.
"Everyone acknowledges that bullying is a problem, and there is a good deal of lip service paid to the long-term devastation it can cause. Yet those on the frontline report time and again that educators fail to do anything about it, or worse, refuse t" Read more of this review »

It’s pretty common with long-running series to reach a point where the characters start to feel repetitive—especially in romance, where the central conflicts can run out of steam. But Baby, It’s Cold Outside by C. F. White is a clear exception.

“Focus, Bernard!”
Naito Diamond

“Biorobots should not behave this way.”
Naito Diamond

“We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and—in spite of True Romance magazines—we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely—at least, not all the time—but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don't see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness.”
Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967

“Biorobots should not behave this way.”
Naito Diamond

“Focus, Bernard!”
Naito Diamond

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967

“A man who procrastinates in his choosing will inevitably have his choice made for him by circumstance.”
Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
