But it’s still free and it’s good… so… get it. The first book is free if you’ve never checked it out, but you don’t need to be familiar with Tamer to read my story. I’ve linked it several times in the past. Tamer: King of Dinosaurs is by Michael-Scott Earle. Here’s a quick link to Book 1 since I’m sure some people will ask. Tamer Enhancer 2 – PDF Format for… other? For some reason Scrivener doesn’t include the cover in pdf format just FYI.Tamer Enhancer 2 – ePub Format for not Kindles.Tamer Enhancer 2 – mobi Format for Kindles.I’ll eventually release updated versions once typo feedback slows and I’m sure most everything’s been found. You can also email me at which is also probably the best way to let me know about typos. Feel free to leave comments here, but please be mindful of spoilers if you do. Please let me know what you think! I’m amenable to all constructive feedback and abject praise. (Yeah, like 3 people noticed her on the other cover.) I wanted to do more with the cover, but I’m not going to hold the book hostage because I didn’t get a chance to hide Yxlyn on the cover yet. The first book was right around 120K for comparison. Well, still faster than some of the pros, eh? This book is a bit longer, at 210K words. Have a sequel! Wow, almost two years to the day since the first book. So I am here to aggressively try and get my GR friends to read it. This book has too few ratings on the GR page. Lucían is clearly kinky but has no frame of reference for it and that's what the couple will undoubtedly be discovering / working through in the next book, aside from the adventure they'll be on. I'm hoping it gets more into Glory's head and fleshes out her character, because as other reviewers have noted she's a bit too perfect in this book - but I attribute much of that to Lucían's intense and inexperienced adoration. The first book ends in an HFN, though, so no cliffhanger worries. I'm looking forward to the sequel to this duology. I felt like all of that was handled with the gravity it merited. There's a lot in here about conservative Christianity's sexuality shaming, because of Lucían's upbringing in an abusive conservative monastery. (Not lying.) I didn't realize when I picked it up that the She-Wolf, whose real name is Glory, is what I would describe as pan from how she talks about herself. It's all from Lucían's POV and his character voice is so fantastic that I had to put it down for a few days because I was jealous. Queer F/M fantasy romance that pairs a shy, slight archivist monk named Lucían with a tall, strapping warrior woman called the She-Wolf in an alternate historical fantasy Europe with different names for countries and cultures, and also with magic and unicorns.

In his subsequent novels, Steinbeck found a more authentic voice by drawing upon direct memories of his life in California. An exception was his first novel Cup of Gold which concerns the pirate Henry Morgan, whose adventures had captured Steinbeck's imagination as a child. Most of his earlier work dealt with subjects familiar to him from his formative years. Steinbeck moved briefly to New York City, but soon returned home to California to begin his career as a writer. This upbringing imparted a regionalistic flavor to his writing, giving many of his works a distinct sense of place. Steinbeck grew up in the Salinas Valley region of California, a culturally diverse place of rich migratory and immigrant history. In 1962, Steinbeck received the Nobel Prize for Literature. In all, he wrote twenty-five books, including sixteen novels, six non-fiction books and several collections of short stories. He wrote the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, The Grapes of Wrath, published in 1939, and the novella, Of Mice and Men, published in 1937. In 1977 he produced the first of many oversize book-style issues, this one devoted to the history and mineralogy of the Tsumeb mine in Namibia. His efforts to revamp the struggling journal were successful, nearly doubling the circulation in his first year. Wendell was hired as editor for the Mineralogical Record magazine in 1976. PhD (1976) University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, in isotope geochemistry. MSc (1972) Arizona State University, in meteorite mineralogy. University prior to coming to ASU: University of MinnesotaīS (1969) University of Minnesota at Duluth, double major in Geology and Fine Art. A cigar-smoking hard ass that you can't help but love. He is military through and through and loves his friends with all his heart. Mark Santoro, a yankee who can't quite figure out these southern boys. A Big, dumb, poor Italian that would do anything for his best friends. The honey prince himself descended from Carolina royalty no doubt, defender of class and president of the anti-tacky league, none other than Tradd St Croix. He couldn't care any less about military rules and regulations. At school on a basketball scholarship and a promise. The ever-sarcastic but wise leader of our group. A friendship forged in the fires of the fabled plebe system of the Carolina Military Institute. Set in the beautiful state of South Carolina, we find ourselves thrust into an unlikely foursome. This was my second Pat Conroy book, and I was not disappointed. to be free of Chinese culture’s relentless subjugation of women,” she said. To be an artist “was the option which would enable me. “For my whole life I had been bound by the tenets of Chinese culture,” Wong told AsianWeek. Friends and neighbors couldn’t imagine why a college graduate would take a job that kept her hands covered with mud. Her mother disapproved of her striking out on her own. “Since I had learned to love making pottery, why couldn’t I make a living at it?” “I knew that a young, Chinese female could never rise to the top in white male-dominated fields,” Wong said in the AsianWeek interview. Wong graduated from Mills with honors in 1942 and found work as a corporate secretary, but she quickly saw that corporate culture was not for her. “Up to that time I had no exposure to art, Chinese or American, nor to museums, as I was growing up in the Chinatown ghetto,” Wong recalled in a 2002 interview with AsianWeek magazine. A college-level course in pottery helped change her mind. From the time she completed high school and entered Mills College in Oakland she had planned to be a social worker for the Chinese American community. In it, she recapped her younger years in the third-person but changed to the first-person voice typical of American autobiography when she described her adult life. Her second memoir, “No Chinese Stranger,” was published in 1975. As a writer, I’d rather have half my audience hate what I did and the other have love it, then have 90% think it was just okay. And I think it’s okay to be polarizing, too. Not with deus ex machina twists that come out of nowhere, but with unique moments, surprises that feel fated, and endings that are earned. And then…they subvert those expectations. They are looking to pull us in with techniques, tropes, rules, and histories that are familiar–so we’ll know how to access these works, how to set up our expectations. And these three subgenres-neo-noir, new-weird, and hopepunk-all have those traits in common. I’m drawn to the periphery, the edges, the shadows, and cobwebbed corners. As a reader, and viewer, of contemporary dark stories, I’m most drawn to work that does not sit nicely in the middle of a major genre. When my mother died, I felt isolated I couldn’t remember knowing anyone personally who had lost a loved one to suicide. Millions of loved ones left to grapple with confusion and regret and anger and guilt, along with the particularly complicated grief that suicide leaves in its wake. That’s 800,000 hearts intentionally stilled. According to the World Health Organization, close to 800,000 people take their own lives worldwide every year. In America, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a person dies by suicide every 13 minutes. There are more of us suicide loss survivors than some might think. My mother took her own life in 2009, and whenever I hear news of a suicide, it both reopens that grief and sends my heart hurtling toward the freshly grieving family, the family reeling from shock and pain. |
