The Masquerade Crew

Buffer The following is syndicated from 3024AD.com and is posted here with permission. The year is 3024 A.D. The universe, the galaxy is our own Milky Way. Mankind has been exploring and colonizing the Milky Way for over 500 years and governments as we know them on Earth have evolved from their present state to interplanetary empires. Some have many planets under their flag, smaller governments have settled on one, or even share worlds with other former nations of Earth. Larger than individual governments are the corporations that have sprung from the 1,000 year long technological races- they wield immense power, with little regard for the borders set by governments- their borders are those determined by trade routes and commerce. Sound intriguing? Let's ask the author about the project.

Buffer Blowing Off Steam Written by Grace Logan Twitter: @sarahgracelogan Website: http://sarahgracelogan.wordpress.com "It’s always a bloody performance," he shouts, stomping around the room. "If it’s not one thing it’s another! Oh I’ve left my tampons at home, oh the dog ate my homework again—" I tune out the words and watch him prancing about. It’s hard not to crack up, but I distract myself with thoughts of a more sinful nature. "God knows what the Ofsted inspector must’ve thought," Sutter shouts, gesturing wildly at the ceiling. "I begged them not to put him in this class, but do they listen to me? Another genius fucking plan from this crackpot school!" Sutter’s really getting into it now, and I lean forward with my chin in my hands to watch. I’m half listening, but the plan to stop myself laughing has worked too well. My mind is back on familiar ground; delicious, disgusting filthy ground. Jennie teases me but it’s just Sut...

Buffer Magic isn't a handful of sparkling dust, a star-topped wand, or a tame word captured on parchment. It's alive. It has a mind of its own. And it's hungry. To celebrate the release of Slippers of Pearl and Bitten: A Novel of Faerie , I'd like to offer a bite of magic to all those who love kidlit--and fairy tales in particular. There will be eleven winners and six different prizes available:

Buffer The following is syndicated from the blog of Greta van der Rol and is post here with permission. The honesty or dishonesty of reviews has been the hot topic of the month, with many people expressing opinions on sock puppets and purchasing reviews, as well as the practice of writing scathing negative reviews on books with the express purpose of driving down a book’s ranking. The fact is that practices such as these won’t go away. Where there is a potential for profit, you will find corruption. I can’t see much point in being outraged. I don’t know about you, but I stopped taking much notice of book reviews a loooong time ago. A review is somebody’s opinion, no more, no less – even if it’s honest. That’s just as true of prestigious literary awards like the Archibald or the Booker. Frankly, I can just about guarantee that if a book’s won one of those, I probably won’t like it. And that’s just a matter of taste. So how do I choose books? I do what I did in the days befor...

Buffer Synopsis and Author Bio : A collection of poems from the front-line of urban life, the cabs of lorries and the bluebell woods of mortality. Oscar Sparrow was born in 1949 as the sonic boom of jets and babies began to draw a new world map of umbilical vapour trails. He was brought up on cod liver oil and National Health orange juice. As the colour red leached its way out of the map of the British Empire, Oscar attended a die-hard Church school designed to create noble savages to serve what was left of the savage Nobles. The Eleven Plus exam revealed that he could not even count to eleven and he became a mechanic, labourer, truck driver, boxer and poet. He read Wordsworth and Ford Cortina manuals in a lorry cab near both Oxford and Cambridge Universities.
