When that thing you paid full price for two days ago just went on sale - When the now-badass former nerd walks into the room - When you've been pulled over and you're not sure why - When you gotta kill a Nazi and you're in a hurry -

I like "The Bells", it's a fantastic exercise in sound and alliteration/assonance. But, my favorite Poe poem would have to be "The Haunted Palace" In the greenest of our valleys By good angels tenanted, Once a fair and stately palace- Radiant palace- reared its head. In the monarch Thought's...

I've already read most of these :P Not Poison Study though, that one sounds interesting.

Good to know. I've been thinking about trying Kindle Platform too, I'm pretty clueless on the publish/promotion end of things...

Happy Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and Festivus to everyone!

Chili, because I only like my own homemade :D Same.
