Hi friends! If you’ve been worrying about what you’re going to watch when Game of Thrones comes to an end, I hope that I have already told you to watch Black Sails. But in case you’re on the fence, I am recapping it with Jodie of Lady Business, and our latest post is live now! Come sail the high squees with us! I’m also at Lady Business to share (belatedly) some YA unreliable narrators for the April edition of the YA Agenda. In podcast crossovering, me and Whiskey Jenny are over at the Spectology podcast to talk about Ann Leckie,…

England is about to get the FIRST EVER Kurdish novel to be translated into English. How cool! How good for the Kurds! I hope it publishes in the US also!

12 CommentsHappy New Year, friends! I’m back in the saddle again and hanging out over at the Oxford Words blog to propose some word-related New Year’s Resolutions. I swear to God this will be the year I figure out “plangent.” What are your New Year’s Resolutions?
