Falls the Shadow

From T.S. Eliot's "Hollow Men"

Between the conception
And the creation
Between the emotion
And the response
Falls the Shadow
Life is very long

That's how things feel in the between time when I'm waiting for opinions and criticisms. I am sending out lots of emails requesting reviews for Foundation, and critiquing other people's work in return. Weekends are taken up with the family, week days with work and watching the kids. When I have spare time, I'll make a second pass to crush and refine Traveler book 1, tentatively called Houses of the Holy. There are still major flaws in it but the beauty could still make it work.

  1. Heh it takes a while. My email has over 100 review requests to do at the moment, and my blog is only 3 months old. I can't imagine what other ones look like, especially of those who don't only target one genre.

    But I did get to yours! ^ ^

    I had a good giggle over my morning coffee after I saw that you posted this roughly a few minutes off from when I posted your review, lol.

  2. Congrats on the book review. It's a great book and well worth the five star review.
