Coming this week

Thanks for following along, guys. Last week we had  a book I loved, the Unwanted by Jeffrey Ricker, a nommy pic with a story behind it that someone ought to write on Thousand Word Thursday, and spotlights on two of The Real Story Safe Sex Project stories, Guiseppe and Me from Robin Reardon and A Matter of Trust from Jeff Erno.

The Safe Sex Project stories are free. The authors planned that and have given their words as a gift to readers.

HOWEVER. Only stories that are designated to be free are free. All you thieves who showed up hoping I had pirated copies of other stories should be ashamed of yourselves. You aren't welcome around here. I will never help you steal. And I know you showed up, what you were looking for,  and what your IP addresses are. How about I show up at your place and take a handful of whatever you're selling to make a living and walk off with it? It's just a handful, and it wants to be free anyhow.... Spare me your excuses. And honor the social contract of the author entertains you, you pay the author.

With that off my chest, I am happy to announce that this coming week will sport a review on Relativistic Phenomena by Kate Pavelle, a spotlight on Two Thousand Pounds Per Square Inch from Brent Hartinger, and a perfectly luscious picture for Thursday, supplied by Rie Warren. There's an excerpt from her new book, In His Sights, that goes with that, so we'll get an extra treat post on Friday. Guess what's moved to the top of my TBR pile!
