…And you should follow it. Here’s some of what we were up to last week:

Every Monday is a new post of our Favorite Things .  We take turns sharing what we are in love with from the previous month.  The downside?  My to-read/watch list has grown.  I didn’t need that.

On Tuesday morning, I was on deck with my review of the gorgeous Winter Tide.  Long story short, this is a beautiful book, and I enjoyed every word of it.

Our second post on Tuesday was an especially fabulous one.  Fellow contributor Stephanie M. Wytovich won the Stoker Award for her poetry collection, Brothel.  Congratulations, Stephanie!!

Wednesday kicked off with a discussion of Nebula nominated film, Kubo and the Two Strings, courtesy of Lane Robbins.  What did she think?  Clicky the link and find out.

We closed out Wednesday with Merrin’s review of Runtime, another Nebula nominee. (Why yes, we are reviewing as many of the Nebula nominees as possible.)

On Thursday, Nicole Taft took us on another visit behind the scenes at your favorite bookstore with her ongoing Welcome to the Bookstore series.  This installment discussed the latter stage of a book’s lifecycle within the retail world: the part where some of them have to be returned.

Later that same day, J.L. Gribble shared her thoughts The Circle. (She also beautifully curates that column each week, no matter how many of us caught whatever the newest thing was.)

And on Friday, our resident Life Coach, Sherry Peters, offered some of her signature wise advice.  Sherry is a Certified Life Coach, loves you, and wants you to be happy.  Write to her at coachsherry@sherrypeters.com for all of your writing woes.

This AND MORE can be yours for the low price of free.  I am honored to work with such brilliant individuals and am humbled by their creativity and intelligence.  Check us out at speculativechic.com – new content every weekday.
