What did you blog about today?

Em's Blog: Some of my Characters are Dicks

Ah, but they're so good at being dicks. :D You write great characters, and I happen to like that they're not all that likable.

A ramble about things TV/film often get wrong. The bow one stands out as particularly dumb:
Thaddeus the Sixth: Common historical mistakes in TV and film

Also, I mentioned a wonderful new service being provided to attractive and wise authors: Thaddeus the Sixth: Proofreading and formatting services

I love the inaccuracies post, Thad! And good luck with the new venture. :)

Oh, and a little something from me: the cover art for my upcoming release, Night Blade. :)

Night Blade: cover and sneak peek
 
Thanks, Juliana.

I don't want to get you too excited, but a nearish future blog will be about medieval taxes.

Intriguing. For a geeky former ag and econ student with interests in history, that would be an interesting blog to read.
The history of tithes, and 'indirect' taxation by way of feu duties and obligations (and the differences between how those obligations could be met in rural areas compared to urban tax and tariff systems) is fascinating (for some of us :p).
 
Vladd, aye, I remember that now you mention it.

Sometimes, though, things can be gratuitously unrealistic. I blame a combination of Lindybeige and CinemaSins for me now seeing these things (for a 'modern' example, the recent War of the Worlds remake has a scene in which a room, at night, has about 6-8 sodding lamps on).

Thanks, Juliana :)
 
Ah, scutage. The reason I go into a hissy fit the moment someone mentions the feudal system 90% of the time...
 
Another release day post as the final volume of the trilogy comes out today: Angel's Knight

Paperbacks should be appearing on Amazon any day now, but kindle versions are out now.

And, for anyone who's missed them, all three books in the trilogy will be available for free on kindle for one day only (tomorrow, 17th October): Angelwar Trilogy

And this book, Angel's Knight, will be free on kindle for a further couple of days after that.:)
 
The power of round numbers. It's just another post of links to things I thought were interesting but it's my 100th post on my 300th day of blogging so it seemed cool to me. Also have some tunes from 300/100 years/months ago embedded at the end.
