• Sometimes talent isn’t all you need. On the financial realities of writing and the unspoken reliance on modern-day patronage.
• Steamy shenanigans? Check. Family drama? Double check. Great read? You betcha. Bitter Lake.
• A ridiculously difficult quiz testing you on your knowledge of obscure English vocabulary.
• Geist is running a Literary Postcard Story Contest. You could win dollars and publication. Go on and enter!
• You may just be a book addict if.… Signs that you’ve been felled by this insidious infliction.
• The more you know: do you perpetuate these top ten grammar myths?

Have a great weekend,
