He’s just a prince that says that he’s the one, but King Ulaf hates his son. If you never thought you’d see a Michael Jackson song quote used so fabulously in a blog post, THINK AGAIN. Well, my sweet little prince is getting even more attention. The latest, IngeniousCat has taken my handsome nobleman for a proverbial ride, and she seems to have enjoyed it.
Gentle reminder, dear fellas! I am running an Ubuntu tablet contest, pitted against the gory chore of YOU reading my books and giving them a truthful appraisal. He who reads dares. And he who dares wins. Maybe. At the beginning of December, we will tally up all the reviews and one shall go home with an Aquaris M10 FHD tablet as a prize for doing some honest literature.
Ladies, gentlemen, princes of this world. The sequel to The Amazing Adventures of Dashing Prince Dietrich has been committed to paper. Fair and square. In its glorious entirety.

Hello, denizens of the Internet. Good news. The Ecotones pro-am anthology, the fourth annual community project organized by SFFWorld.com, has been set free into the wild. It is out there, with fourteen tales of a mostly speculative and fictional nature, created and molded by best-sellers, award-winners and nominees, established talents and up-coming authors.
