I'm trying out a new blog segment, in which I compare books that share a common thread. Today: green magic (and the figure of the Green Man).

A sort of review, @Justin Swanton 's Immortelle

Literature Long Read: Utter Dismemberment in House Of Leaves

There is a very strange and small subgenre of literature that is so esoteric and self-reflexive that conventional attempts at categorisation seem to be powerless to define it. The Norwegian academi…

A long read (what else?) looking at Mark Danielewski's House of Leaves.

If I might offer my endorsement...

I haven't read House of Leaves but I found this really interesting, especially the discussion of (or diatribe against) postmodernism.

Oh it's well worth reading, it's unlike any other book you'll pick up. @Phyrebrat is also a big fan - with luck we'll get to a podcast episode on it soon.

I’m rereading atm — it’s such a breeze block — and this time I’m struck with similarities with the methodology of the Hounds of Tindalos and their fearsome use of ANGLES!!! Here be Minotaure, or is it hounds?

The Portrait of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde: So I’m part of a small bookclub focusing on classic books and when this came up I was intrigued. And after a few chapters, I was very intrigued. Bu…

My Top 36 Fantasy Series/Books

Today is a good day to update (and slightly expand) my previous top books list. New books are read, tastes change, and nothing ever stays the same. A fine excuse for a new list. In case anyone care…

A stand-up bit in a Red Cross fundraising night that got a 50/50 laughter/bewilderment reaction. Not really a blog post, but I'm gonna count it as writing because it's sort of SF. Was inspired by @Justin Swanton 's 'Immortelle' -if ya got the patience for the clip I made a reference in at the end

Should the Rincewind books be considered grimdark?

This post is part tongue in cheek, part serious. The thought popped into my head this evening and won’t go away. Perhaps I should explain why. The reasoning came due to a conversation on fant…

Kundo Wakes Up by Saad Z Hossain

(mild spoilers) When I found out about Kundo Wakes Up, sometime last year, I hit the pre-order button like it said “please collect a free million pounds”. I had utterly fallen in love w…

I did another story for #BlogBattle - Tender Mercy. I was startled to discover it's the first time I've blogged since the end of January, so I'm not sure where the year has gone.

I posted a short blog on writing space.

Writing space and a routine — JOHN PARK - Writer

Currently, I am on Chapter 14 of my novel with just above 50,000 words. When I first started, I just wrote on my laptop anywhere and whenever I could make time. However, some of the articles I read on how to write a book, suggested that I create a daily routine for writing. Now as I have gotten olde
