So, I need to find a good Mexican restaurant in Los Angeles. Specifically, the mid-City / mid-Wilshire / Hollywood / WeHo area. All the ones I used to like are gone or have gone to shit. I need a lunch place that really knows how to make refried beans and cheese enchiladas. Hit me.

In my new interview with author K.B Wagers, they talk about how "And The Mighty Will Fall," the fourth book in their military science fiction series "NeoG," isn't exactly what it seems. Or what the title implies.

Only 37 pages in, but I'm hooked. Kind of giving me "The Rock" meets "Universal Soldier" vibes.

We all deal with grief and disappointment in our own ways. And my way of dealing with the sadness and worry I felt after the election was to order this shirt, which I will wear until I die. Or it wears out.

For some weird reason reading a post-"Revenge Of The Sith" book seems appropriate at this moment in time.

So this was creepy / stalker-y, though it being from the creeper's / stalker's perspective, and them being a woman creeping / stalking a woman, held my interest.

When talking about their influences, some fantasy authors will cite "Dungeons & Dragons." But in my new interview with author Holly Searcy, she says her high fantasy novel "The Shiver Tree" actually started as the backstory to her "D&D" character.
