Overclocked - what an outstanding book!
I thoroughly enjoyed each story in Overclocked. A great variety, and each one crafted with skill. Science fiction that is real and believable!
Grammar Devotional - How the English language changes
This is a good study of how the English language changes over time; for example, the use of 'on accident' instead of 'by accident'. I've done some modules in a Linguistics course at university and found this topic fascinating - English is a dynamic language and is continually being added to - depending on where in the world it is being spoken!
Someone Will Be With You Shortly - Love it! :)
Yes, I live in South Africa and I can identify with Lisa Logan! Women are so similar the world over... the latest post "They'll Always Have Paris" is great! I too can say, "My name is Meg and I'm a romantic"
