My book reviews that is. I finally got my butt in gear and published my three waiting book reviews. Anyone wants to see them, they are linked below. Please feel free to tell me what you think of my style and content. I plan to write more reviews as I read more books, so con crit is really useful to me.

Without further adieu:
Lover Awakened by J.R. Ward
Lover Revealed by J.R. Ward
Lover Unbound by J.R. Ward

Yes, I know they are all from the same author, they are also all from the same series. They are just what I have read in the last 3 weeks or so. Enjoy.

Saw an early showing of the new Harry Potter movie. This one was really good. The movie followed the book fairly well with the obvious cuts to make it all fit within a 2.5 hour film. It's got tension (both sexual and dramatic), action, death, and magic. I recommend that any who are fans of the series should see it.

NOTE: If you have ever wanted to see a jumping point for a Draco/Severus relationship, this is the movie to see. There is a scene in the middle of the movie where Draco is brought into a private party that he wasn't invited to and Snape says he will take care of him. The actions of the actors and the way the lines come across is SO slashable.

Speaking of relationships, several relationships blossom in this latest addition to the HP movie series. From the start it is so obvious who several of the characters should be with but they are desperately oblivious to the obvious. If I had been there, I would have been tempted to start throwing things at some of the characters.

Anyway, you should see it. The movie is entertaining and I can't wait to see the end of the series in motion picture format.

I don't know what has gotten into me, but in the last 2 days, I have written over 3500 words in a new original story. I have no clue where this story will take me or if I will every finish/post it, but I hope I can continue at this pace.

My poem "Not Alone" was just entered in a poetry contest. If you have a chance and are able, would you mind reading and rating it? I would be grateful.  ^_^

Watchmen Review: Who's Watching the Watchmen?
A review of the soon to be released film Watchmen.

Oh how I've missed you. I finally got internet today. I was supposed to have it last week, but we got 3 inches of snow and all of southern California had a freak out party. Seriously, I have lived in places where that wouldn't have closed schools and yet here it closed all the roads to all but emergency personnel. Go figure.

Anyway, I have most of my stuff here. Still waiting on the stuff to get here that never even went to England, but should have that by the second week of January. <small>Funny how that which has the least distance to travel takes the longest to get here.</small>

Now I am to look for a job. UGH! Four years of being essentially unemployed really makes getting a job a not so fun sport, but I will make the best of it. Wish me luck. <small>I'm gonna need it.</small>

Three 2008 Movies Not Worth Seeing: The Happening, The Love Guru & Punisher: War Zone
A review of the three worst movies of 2008 The Happening, The Love Guru & Punisher: War Zone
http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/1296841/three_2008_movies_not_worth_seeing.html

is now complete and available on AFF for your viewing pleasure. In His Place: Release  My wrists are so tired from typing, I think I will watch some videos for a while. Enjoy the story and please review me. Thank you!

EDIT: AFF blows chunks. That being said the SNAFU from last night has been fixed and the full chapter should be there. I plan to re-post most of my fics on mediaminer and maybe retool a few for FF.net audiences. So if this happens again, there will be other places to catch the full act. Hell maybe I will post them on DA too - get a different set of people reading this stuff. :) Enjoy and sorry for the trouble.

The Third chapter is up on In His Place.

Sorry to all about how long this took to write. I was happy with where the first two chapters were and knew where the last chapter was going, but couldn't seem to get this chapter to get me to the last one for the longest time. The next chapter should be up faster, I hope.

I recently learned about the Harry Potter lawsuit and wanted to share my opinion on it. Check out my recently published content on AC:

The Harry Potter Lexicon: Who Has the Rights?

I just spent the last week traveling. I went to Paris, France first and then Lisbon, Portugal. Three days each. Let me tell you, I am soooo tired I can't even see straight.



Anyway, I am home now, tired and cold, but I slept in my own bed last night and ate my own food. I will be able to game tomorrow. Everything is right with the world again. :D
