The Artifice of Eternity

I am a freelance writer and avid reader. I don't need much sleep so I've filled the nights reading books. These days I mostly read history - particularly ancient history - since I'm a co-founder, director, and writer for Ancient History Encyclopedia; but I've read widely in the past and still do. I hope you'll enjoy hearing about the books I've read and what they've taught me.

Chicken Soup for the Soul: My Very Good, Very Bad Cat

This is a really interesting, touching, and highly enjoyable anthology. Yes, one of my stories is included in it - `The Great Fish Tank War' - but that's not why I'm reviewing it here nor is it why I think so highly of the book. I've been published in anthologies in the past and, in a number of cases, have been very disappointed by the company I've wound up keeping. In this case, however, I'm delighted to find my work surrounded by very capable writers who understand their craft and know how to tell a story. I don't want to single anyone out and ruin the reading adventure for you. If you like cats you'll love this book and if you're a major cat fan you'll find it as irresistible as your favorite feline friend. Even if cats aren't your life's focus, though, I think you'll enjoy the book for the great story telling. And, no, I'm not promoting it because it will bring me a cent. The royalties for the sale of the book go to the American Humane Society. I'm honored to have been included in the anthology and hope you enjoy it as much as I have.
