Becoming a writer is one of the hardest things I've ever done. Here is the story of my struggle and what I learned in the process.
James Baldwin on Giovanni's Room (1956)
I just finished Giovanni's Room and it has found a space on my favorite books of all time list. Perhaps I should have read this novel 40 years ago when I was in my mid 20s - but I'm not at all upset that I only discovered it now. I'm sure that it resonated in quite a different way for this 60 something single man.

Usually when I travel, something happens that inspires a story.
Here I try to explain how that works.

Illustrations of new species of exotic butterflies : selected chiefly from the collections of W. Wilson Saunders and William C. Hewitson -1806-1878-
In the brief period between the introductions of dial-up Internet and Google, there was a market for link listings on paper
Most of time it is not you have forgotten about how to save the world, instead it is you forget to read a book and studying properly about what exact are the reasons which have caused all the problems around the world.
The best time spent today was me reading the book "Prisoners of Geography" by Tim Marshall
This was recommended by my former Geography teacher in high school and I must say that, so far, it has been very informative. I really love the author's analysis on geopolitics.
Can't wait to finish this book!
The striking predictions of Huxley versus Orwell
British birds by Thorburn, Archibald -1860-1935-
"Mamoulian" (2013)
David Luhrssen
A BROODING, GLORIOUS HOLLYWOOD thriller intertwines the stories of a young Mexican woman making her acting debut and the Biblical epic of Salome in which she stars. Richly textured 1950s studio detail and an unforgettable main character. A MINUS
I absolutely loved this , both as a fan & lover of Agatha Christie-style . Exploring the fandom & community that surround horror franchises was a great backdrop for this murder mystery. Would definitely recommend Brian LeTendre (Harrowed)

Eric Icarus emblem. Does your series or main character have a symbol Insignias are such an interesting way to express so much with only a shape, letter, or colors. As a designer, I love creating logos and other marks, so I had a blast developing the lettermark for Eric Icarus.
"The Gulf" (2012)
Michael F. Cairo
I think this is the first time I've ever preordered a book
(probably because my favorite authors are all dead )

Edge of Empire, Maya Jasanoff : A cover a day. No. 29 -De la bonne qui joue avec l' de France, mlant les peuples friques aux conflits du Moyen-ge.
Comme on a fait un bond dans le temps, si vous n'avez pas lu les 4 tomes du premier cycle, c'est pas grave (mais c'est dommage), les premiers chapitres vous mettent dans le bain (de sang) (nan pas tout de suite, d'abord y'a des complots, des trahisons et des coups fourrs...)
