books and such randomness.

Updated the other site so thought I should this one as I had been neglecting it as well. Not that there is anything to say, but then that is what makes it fun. Random thoughts being easier to write. Not easier to read perhaps. But so what?
I have to say it is good that there is a spell check or it would be even hard to read. as I said in a comment I can not spell to save me. Then anther guy just had to point out the things I and spell check did not catch. Oh well that just proved my point. lol (should looking into copying smiles some day.) sorry. now back to what I was saying.
What was it? Oh yes.
Well Stirling proved to be as good as I hoped. Rudie is making his way east. they have managed by the end to get to Iowa where the part once again gets split. I like that as technology fails magic is becoming more real. Though I was shocked a bit when the virgin Mary appeared to the priest. The pagan gods and goddess I could understand. After they only appeared at the ceremonies, where proper rites had been made. Or aspect on the battle filled where called, though that is more position then a true vision. And a lot would in other places be called battle fever. Though to quote a char from the book. "Just because you can explain it does not mean it is not magic."
In fairness the priest had been fasting for three days, or so we are told, then hikes up a snow covered mountain to pray. So I guess that ceremony was done there to. It is just more surprising as it is a fermiler tradition. And that we had not seen it getting so personal before. but then with the mains being Wiccan, the other is not seen as much. Anyway I am impatiently waiting for the next to hit pb.So I can see how they get out of jam and meet back up this time. I think it is one of the six or so that will come out in May. So many books and no time.
The one now started looks to be good but it is taking time to get going. likely do to the fact that I keep doing other things. It is takes some adjusting to accept that people take it for granted that others can and do own shares of them. That others can control them by have a Moriarty of there stock. Strange, but then most books I read are. Some just further out there than others. the thing is you are just plunged in with no explanation. but that is how it should be as there is no one in the story yet who needs an explanation so such would be out of place.
ok well that was that. likely I will never think to say more about the book.
well I am running out of time, as the kids will be wanting this computer in a bit and there are other things half done. Oh theses games, how they eat time, but how fun it is to see a city and army take shape as you create.
Oh right I should say something about witting. Well I am not writing every day, but on days when I do I come out around 600 a day so I think it will work out ok. only I need to do more if I am going to get any editing, beyond basic spelling, done by May. Witch I kind of am hoping to.
Ok that said.
GOOD NIGHT IMAGINARY, and not so imaginary, READER. hope you survived should you have tried to read this.
