Wistful Writings: Prime Codex - Review

Prime CodexPaul Abbamondi just reviewed Prime Codex the anthology from Paper Golem that I have a story in.

A short piece that is positively sure to get you to mutter “a-ha!” at its cruelly twisted reveal, “Rampion” by Mary Robinette Kowal is the sort of story that is most enjoyable on its first read. Read it without distractions, and enjoy.

He says equally nice things about the rest of the anthology and closes by saying:

Prime Codex has a bit of everything as well: from crisp offerings of science fiction to haunting tales of pure, magical fantasy, everything within is worthwhile. An excellent debut from Paper Golem, with smart choices from Lawrence M. Schoen and Michael Livingston. Come on, order your copy.

My sentiments exactly.

Housewarming at Christina’s

It’s 1:30 am and I just got home from Christina’s housewarming party, which was the perfect way to end today. Besides hanging out with folks like Evan, Dave and David I also got to meet new folks like Garth and F.I. and Reuben. Good conversations, good food on seemingly every flat surface and beverages galore. Have I mentioned the homemade chocolate cake that Christina made?

I’ll tell you, after spending the day selling off our possessions, going to a housewarming in such a cute house was exactly what I needed to give me hope that our move will be over someday.

The only drawback that I can see is that I have stayed up too late again. But it was fun.
