So I have been, waiting for some books. They have arrived and I have read most of them, Redshirts by John Scalzi. I enjoyed it most of the time, It would make a great movie. So there were three books of the "Wired" magazine reading list that last one Myke Cole's Book Shadow OPs, That was good now I want the next one. This next one is the surprise Saladin Ahmed "Throne of the Crescent Moon" Don't get caught out by the cover, It is better it looks. It is so cool, I has drawn me in. It has so really good sentences. This is one is one of my current favourites.
"Taking a last long look around the bookshelves and bureaus of his townhouse, Adoulla himself felt something similar."
One of the other characters Raseed has just sharpen a sword and Adoulla feels about books the same as Raseed about his sword. To learn more you'll need to get the book. Oh and this other sentence, is just so neat at showing lost dreams and hopes, and a life, lived,
"Instead of a blissful marriage, he had monstrosities on his mind and a pile of "should haves" pressing down upon his soul."
I like this book, it is great read. find it enjoy it. Dyslexia rules I like mine. have a great day.

I love reading what could be called transient material. It is that stuff some people will collect and keep, it is the stuff that only acquires a value if someone throws away there copy of this transient material. I like movies a lot. I go to the movies to unwind. I like to read about movies so I read empire, have been from issue one. I do find it fun. Then I like to read. Sci-fi now, Also SFX The whole geek thing a misnomer. Just for fun go and find out where it comes from in real life. Yes go and google it!So I like to read about the whole science fiction thing I read old H. G Wells, Jules Vern and new as well, I'll be ordering Redshirts by John Scalzi, Shadow Ops: Control Point by Myke Cole, I was sucked in by the tag line, Army Officer. Fugitive. Sorcerer. I just like that string of Ideas.
Heavy Duty yes motorcycle magazines are just such a creative push the work in metal, is astounding, and to be applauded. I also like to fly fish, it is one of the things I do that gives me energy and puts me in touch with a wider world. So when I cannot get to the water reading Fishing Wild is the one that causes me to think about the way I wish to be. Where I wish to be.
Then I am kind of hooked on design and designers and the what could be I design process. So when I find a journal, such as the smith Journal, which has a wide range of information from Cheese Making to The styling that goes into Ice cream vans!! Yes that is true. The man who hand crafts knives. I do find the range of information is just thrilling. Finally Fast Thinking ideas are a good thing to be exposed to even if they are not in your field of expertise, it can promote a way of changing. So What is that you need exposure to, to cause your development. I also have in the past also taken courses to help with my writing. Take every opportunity to have your words ideas look at. It is risky but it shouldn't kill to much. Enjoy, throw out that transient material. It makes you feel better.
