Tosca Lee, author of Havah (which I am currently reading*), is giving away a few interesting Genesis-related prizes. Just go to Toscology to enter the drawing. Yeah, it's that simple.
By the way Havah: The Story of Eve, officially released today. Look for it a B&N or wherever you shop, today!
*I'll have a review up when I finish, but I do have to say that any book that switches from French, Latin and Greek-origin language to Anglo-Saxon sixty pages in just to make a point is well ahead of the game.

Lommel's March to the Sea
First, the genteel application for the Evil League of Evil by the Gentleman Caller:
Which somehow leads to this strange polar transmission/powerpoint presentation:
Bad Horse would be making a huge mistake by galloping past the Lommel.

Into the Breach: The Marcher Lord in History and Legend.
As I await the arrival of the print novels I ordered from Marcher Lord Press, I thought I'd mention two of the e-books that MLP has also published.
The first is Into the Breach: The Marcher Lord in History and Legend.
This quickly became an invaluable resource to me as a writer. Castle expert Lise Hull's meticulous review of a number of (in many cases, still-standing) borderland castles and their operation in Medieval Britain illustrates the impact that the very concept of the Marcher Lord (A "March" or "Mark" being a medieval term for border) has, even today.
In addition to historical fiction, this book would be very useful to any writer who writes stories in genres ranging from post-apocalyptic "last stand" to gothic horror to westerns to science fiction (esp. "outpost"-type tales).
Any story that involves an imperfectly self-sufficient enclosed society at the frontier of security would benefit greatly from the information packed into this wonderful little e-book. In honor of Marcher Lord Press's launch, it has been discounted for a limited time to $3.
