@kate-flournoy Glad you enjoyed it. I really enjoyed writing this one. It just came…

I’ve been doing my own headscratching over here. Sure, I’ve heard of “show, don’t tell”, but that was always in connection with…[Read more]

Granted not everything falls into the same “historical fantasy” category as Leviathan, but it seems to be what I gravitate towards in my short stories. I wrote this sometime last year and it is…[Read more]

Doyle were “The White Company” and “Sir Nigel”. “Sir Nigel” is actually first (they are a series), but was written second. I read them one right after another and I could see that, but it didn’t bother me much. 🙂 I actually don’t know if he wrote any others.

@rebelutoinary Hmmm…flcsagr(at)mailaka(dot)net. I replaced the @ and the . with the written words because supposedly it’s a spam-protection measure. Wonder why it’s not working? (And I am not your resident tech support. 😉 Unfortunately, I’m not as savvy as I might like to be…)

I really was off the beam. I got a couple of the letters mixed up! The first part is flcsagr. Sorry about that. :}

@gretald Well, I really like O. Henry’s short stories. And I guess I’m rather partial to classic fairytales or similar stories–as might be evidenced by the fact that a good number of my own short stories (which…[Read more]

I didn’t think you were insulting Florida! I just got to thinking how I’ve heard people say that Florida isn’t “The South” and well, stuff fell off the ends of my finger-tips. 😉 Neat that you’re a native–even though you’re no longer there…(lived in Arizona for about two years. Fort Huachuca was my dad’s last duty-station before…[Read more]

I’ve not read any of his other books outside of the Quinn series, but if they are as full of adventure and humour as those, I’m sure they’d be enjoyable to read.
I have dreams of writing edge of your seat WWII screenplays…I’ll read something and file it away for “someday”. (Speaking of which, any…[Read more]

Might depend on which part of the US you hail from. (That’s another interest of mine–genealogy. You probably don’t want to get me started… 😀 )
I am a country-girl. Tell you, this corn up here in the mid-west seriously dwarfs me. I’m not from the mid-west really though, I’m Southern born and bred (as close as…[Read more]

To this day, I love a good mystery. I believe I have read all of the the Holmes stories and consequently cannot remember them all or pick a favorite. Dr. Watson is actually my favorite character (I relate to him very well), but Sherlock’s immensely logical brain never ceases to wonder me.…[Read more]

I guess I will have to learn more about all this interesting internet realm to see what category I might fall into.

@sarah-h Hehee, thanks. 🙂 Dear me. That’s some question and one that I really can’t answer. (I never could answer favorite book questions.) However, The Midshipman Quinn books by Showell Styles are launching…[Read more]

(haven’t gotten the tag thing figured out yet) That’s an interesting question, really. I’ve mainly written short stories that verge on fantasy, but with a more historical and less fantastical flair to them. I have a dystopian novel in the works (me, who has neither read nor watched a dystopia. Ever.) I also have a HUGE historical fiction…[Read more]

Howdy. Name’s Racheal. I’m 25 (just); a little older than the targeted age bracket of this here site, but happy to be here thanks to the management’s graciousness.

I’m a wee bit of scribbler, but I suppose that’s obvious. I haven’t done much recently actually, but I…[Read more]
