Leadership Character

A six-part series by West Point’s Col. Eric Kail 

Parts 1 through 5 have been published. In my opinion a must read.

My Introduction to Steampunk

I have been a long time fan of Tanya Huff. Her Keeper's Chronicles series is a favourite of mine, as are the Blood Books (I did watch and enjoy all the TV episodes as well). A tweet from Tanya turned me on to Cold Magic by Kate Elliott. That lead to the Crossroads Trilogy while waiting for Cold Fire. Finishing up Crossroads put me a bit behind in reading Cold Fire So I'm only about halfway through. I think what I enjoy most about Kate's writing in the Spiritwalker series is that the Steampunk world she has created serves as a backdrop for the main characters' interaction with the spirit realm and each other in much the same way that late twentieth century Southern Ontario serves as a back drop for Tanya's Keeper's Chronicles and Blood Books.

Back After a Long Hiatus

I have been off working on other things, and neglecting my blog. But now I hope to be able to put some effort into this part of my on-line life. I'm glad to see many of my old friends on my blog roll are still active.

It was also time for a make over.
