I remember those years. Ugh. I'm so glad my two are full grown now. Any of idiocy they get up to is on them, not me.
My daughter has two, one first and one third grade. It's going to be Karma if they put her through what she put us through. Lol. |

Neither. My protagonist wouldn't last long in a "cozy" series, as I'd turn it into Jack Reacher or the Gray Man.

My protagonist would just ignore the whole matter and go home to eat, sleep and read a good book. Wait... what about the story? Forget it. The story would end there.

Publishing imprints are confusing. The store page says one thing, the embedded metadata says another, the copyright page says something entirely different. Also imprints of imprints of imprints. Enough to give someone a bloody migraine.

I just don't pay any attention to them and don't edit them in Calibre. Don't care enough to be bothered.

When others are calling books that are time travel not time travel.

When people are so wrong minded that they have the unadulterated nerve to disagree with my statements of fact, I need an outlet.

When a fanfic finally updates after 4-5 years and you can't remember any of the context of the plot. Time for a re-read, I guess.
