If you're walking on eggshells around releasing the files, know that Aramis wouldn't hesitate to hunt down any child molester or rapist if he ever gets his hands on such a list. Stand with these victims and demand to release the Epstein Files, or be known as being complicit.

One of the things that I loved to write in the Doppelganger Queen was Korzha's sword. It was based off of the Mary Rose Basket Hilt, with some added tweaks: such as the spiraling unicorn hilt and the finger loop so he could throw it. I wanted a sword that speaks of a time that is pre-rapier

I think you're on to something. I feel Holmes and Poirot are pretty equal in their acuity of detection and outsmarted criminals. But Watson is by far mentally agile compared to Captain Hastings. Plus, his knowledge as a doctor had been insurmountable to Holmes' cases.

Before the Doppelganger Queen I was writing a story about Housewives vs Zombies. I was stuck because I felt they're getting along too well and there's wasn't enough conflict. I heard that RA Salvatore wrote short stories to work through his blocks. Well, mine became a novel... and a long series.

I'm calling it theft. It's depriving the community the much needed materials to expand their worldview. Rural counties such as these need different perspectives that goes beyond the borders of their hometown. Also, you're taking away property of the local taxpayers, so there's that.

But I have never worked with a PR company, editing service, or book packager, so anybody saying so is lying, period full stop.
