I can't let it go...

And neither can Arthur Darvill--who played one of my favorites on Doctor Who. Oh wait, maybe he can!

The Ballad of Arthur Darvill for your enjoyment.

 

What does it mean to be free?

No, I'm not having philosophical or political thoughts. I'm talking about FREE books and reading. Okay, my free short story to be precise.

Free reads and short stories in general are an excellent way to try out new authors and genres. Often shorter tales give an author the chance to tell a supporting character's story or add background and dimension to characters and worlds. Sometimes there's just a tale to be told and it doesn't take so many words.

Dead Lily Blooms (originally appearing in the anthology Tales From The Mist) now makes an solitary appearance as a free ebook. Part of an upcoming series of stories At Death's Gates, Dead Lily is a paranormal romance. Perhaps a bit different from my fantasy romances, but...not so much.

Someone wants vampyre Lily dead, and a bargain with Death has been struck. Death sends servant Agaar to bring Lily to him, but the task becomes more complicated than either Death or Agaar anticipated.

Let it Goat!

I'm sorry. I can't help it. It's Tuesday.

Let Vivaldi's Winter Go!

Ah, Thursday. A great day for music. With it's popularity, there's a chance that I could be a little tired of Let It Go. (But just a small chance, mind you.) But I'll never get tired of The Piano Guys! Or Vivaldi.

So here's an excellent smash up for today...
