Childhood Favorites

I watched The Seeker: The Dark is Rising the other night. It was okay, but my memory kept telling me that the book was WAY better.

So, tonight, I'm gonna pick up The Dark is Rising by Susan Cooper from my library. Can't wait!

I remember really enjoying this series when I was younger, and I think this will by my 3rd or 4th time reading this particular book.

A few other childhood favorites are:
Wait Till Helen Comes by Mary Downing Hahn
Blade of the Poisoner and Master of Fiends by Douglas Arthur Hill
The Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett

Do you have any favorite childhood books?

Back to Coloth

The good news? Rose thinks it's a geat idea to start posting our stories about Coloth.

The bad news? Revisions . . . Blah.

Oh, well. Better to revise and post, than to have readers point out all the misspellings and inconsistencies in the story line. :D

World Name: Coloth

I'm thinking about hijacking this blog to promote a series of stories (and hopefully a book or 4) that my good friend Rose and I are writing.

I've had a world named 'Coloth' since I was in junior high, populated with dragons, Elves, and a few other Races I like to think of as unique (as unique as the next Race of cat-people can be anyway ^_^).

Recently, since Rose and I have been double-teaming the world, some of the stories have taken on a life of their own, and I'm dying to get them out to be read. I'm also thinking of posting them on my FictionPress account.

Guess I just need to run the idea by Rose now and see if she's agreeable. :D
