A little while ago I was asked to be part of SF Signal’s Mind Meld feature. I was really flattered because, well, no one in the genre community has cared about my opinion before (that’s what you get for running a small blog, which is fine.). I put off writing it because I couldn’t think…

Last week a post went viral within the SFF blogging community pretty fast. It was this post written by Stefan from Far Beyond Reality. Soon after that was posted bloggers were popping up all over with their list of the top five bloggers/fan writers they’d nominate for a Hugo. Then Kristen, from Fantasy Cafe popped up with this thought provoking…

Dear publishers, authors and whoever else this applies to:  I’ve tried to let EVERYONE who needs this information know, but I probably missed someone so I’m sincerely hoping everyone who needs to see this does so.  My mailing address has changed and if you had my @q.com email, that’s changed too.  If you are a…

This discussion has a little homework attached to it. Recently I was made aware of an article written by Stefan Raets about… well, I’ll have you read it here or here. The topic really interests me because I’ve never thought of bloggers being able to receive Hugo-type awards, but it makes sense. The world is changing,…

Dear readers,  I know I have been few and far between recently. The reason is that we just bought a new house, which means we are in the middle of moving (which is INCREDIBLY hard with a wiggly 6 month old) and my husband just started a new job this week. I’m getting precious little…

There are a few things I try very hard not to be part of on my blog, examples would be press releases and cover art. They are all over, that I just don’t see the point of adding them to my blog as well. I try to keep my blog focused completely on reviews and…

Hello everyone,  I’ve been really silent on here for a few weeks and I feel as though my dear readers deserve an explanation. First, my husband and I just bought our first house, yesterday everything was finalized. The house-buying process takes a LOT of time. I didn’t expect that before we did it. Looking at…

I know I’m a day late posting this. I am currently house hunting and the process of doing that has devoured my week. I lost track of time. Apologies. Anyway, the winner of Theft of Swords by Michael Sullivan is… Ole Imsen of Norway (and also of Weirdmage’s Book Reviews) Congratulations, Ole! – and thanks…

Today is quite a mile marker for good ‘ol Bookworm  Blues. Last night, while I was asleep, my blog hit the 100,000 hits mark. That’s incredible. I never thought I’d get this many hits, but now that I’m here, it’s rather surreal. I started this blog in May of 2010 as a place for me…

I’ll be out until after the new year is celebrated. Fiona (my 4 month old) and myself contracted some sort of a plague at one of our various gatherings for Christmas so we are both busy resting and trying to get better. I have half of a review written for Lightbringer by K.D. McEntire and…
