Cogito Ergo Sum: The Windsor Faction
http://delamaidebookblog.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-windsor-faction.html
Wednesday, May 6, 2015. DJ Taylor's novel starts with a great premise for an alternate history - Wallis Simpson dies of appendicitis so that Edward VIII does not abdicate but stays on the throne as World War II commences - and provides an entertaining portrait of England torn between pacifism ("defeatism") and war. So as an alternate history thriller, The Windsor Faction. That said, Taylor is a talented and supple writer and the novel remains compelling even without a thriller's suspense. I'm a writer an...
Cogito Ergo Sum: May 2014
http://delamaidebookblog.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 17, 2014. Rachel Kushner's novel about American expatriates in the waning days of the Batista regime vividly describes the beauty and appeal of Cuba. She immerses the reader in the life of families attached to the United Fruit Company's sugar operations in eastern Cuba and the nearby nickel mine operated by the U.S. government. Despite its strengths, then, the book ultimately was unsatisfying on a dramatic, aesthetic level. The epilogue was particularly flat - too true to the disappoint...
Cogito Ergo Sum: Instruments of Darkness
http://delamaidebookblog.blogspot.com/2014/12/instruments-of-darkness.html
Sunday, December 21, 2014. Wilson is a good writer who makes this background vivid and believable. I enjoyed his bestseller, A Small Death in Lisbon,. But was unfamiliar with these earlier thrillers set in Africa until I came upon this book in the second-hand bookstore in Austin, South Congress Books. Apparently they were largely unavailable in the U.S. until the success of Lisbon. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. An Officer and a Spy.
Cogito Ergo Sum: January 2015
http://delamaidebookblog.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 25, 2015. A shadowy "organization" of so-called poets maintains a discipline of what they call persuasion, and the rest of us would call manipulation. They categorize people into "segments" that allow them to use certain nonsense words to penetrate the psychological barriers each of us sets up and leave the individual powerless to resist a command - even if it means shooting yourself or killing others. Much of the action takes place in Broken Hill. I've never visited that town but I d...
Cogito Ergo Sum: March 2015
http://delamaidebookblog.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 26, 2015. Despite my reservations about the first novel in the series ( Instruments of Darkness. There are some outlandish characters - the shipbroker's daughter, Selina, who becomes Medway's client and is a man-eating vixen; the Nigerian chief running for president of the country who needs financing for his campaign; some small-time Russian thugs who craft their own chili vodka, and others. And there's the driving along the coast between Nigeria and Benin, the ever-present heat and threa...

Barnaby Woods Books: June 2012
http://www.barnabywoodsbooks.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 26, 2012. It turns out, somewhat to my surprise, that the new financial thriller I've been working on has a gold angle and may end up being a sequel of sorts to Gold. Not a sequel in the sense of the same characters, but it will treat once again the same issues of money and debt and the role of gold in our modern economy. I'm still excited about the sequel to The Grand Mirage. Even though it is 20 years old, is selling better than Mirage. Is 299 while Mirage. I even have a notion now for a ...
Barnaby Woods Books: Gold
http://www.barnabywoodsbooks.com/p/gold.html
Is a classic financial thriller in the tradition of Joseph Finder, Christopher Reich and Stephen Frey. Though it first appeared two decades ago, it is as current as today’s headlines. The more things change, the more they stay the same. In fact, the world now seems closer to the global financial catastrophe depicted in Gold. This new edition is a reprint of the entire original text, without any additions or changes. The first edition was published as a hardback by E.P. Dutton in 1989 and as a...

http://barnabywoodsblog.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 31, 2012. Oh my The Authors Guild sent out a long email citing the New York Times story on Barnes and Noble. As great journalism and buying into the misguided notion that B&N is the great hope for book publishing's future. The email came from "staff" and replies probably go into a dead-letter box, but I replied anyway. The original email is way too long to reproduce, but suffice to say it reflects the Big Six attitude of viewing Amazon as the enemy. (The text is available. If you continu...
Barnaby Woods Blog: Output
http://barnabywoodsblog.blogspot.com/2012/12/output.html
Tuesday, December 11, 2012. We had a little discussion at my monthly writers' lunch about how Paul Dickson churns out so many books. He brought his "book of the week" to the lunch - a slim volume of humor explaining what various journalistic catchphrases mean. He said he had been collecting items for this book for 20 years. "These are shoe box projects," he said. Paul writes nonfiction, often about baseball, and his cash cow is a regular update of the Dickson Baseball Dictionary. View my complete profile.
Barnaby Woods Blog: November 2011
http://barnabywoodsblog.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 28, 2011. Where does writing what you know or the art of the telling detail become self-indulgence? Sometimes, it's obvious. The whisky drinker who slips in a reference to his favorite single malt, the car aficionado who lovingly reels off the model and year of the hero's vehicle, the movie fan who references a film or (worse! Describes a character by comparing him to an actor. Sometimes an author seems to be indulging in a personal fantasy. In The Essene Conspiracy. It is not a coincide...

Barnaby Woods Books: Indie
http://www.barnabywoodsbooks.com/p/self-publishing.html
My Long Road to Self-Publishing. When I sold my first novel to E.P. Dutton in 1988 for a substantial advance, I thought I had it made as a writer. Richard Marek, the editor who bought it and also the chief executive of Dutton, had been Robert Ludlum’s first editor and the one question he had for me before he made the offer was whether I’d be willing to write other similar novels. The dream continued and Debt Shock. Those were the days. Dick Marek bought my novel, a financial thriller entitled Gold. Worki...
Barnaby Woods Blog: First person
http://barnabywoodsblog.blogspot.com/2012/07/first-person.html
Tuesday, July 3, 2012. But it is also liberating. Since you are no longer an omniscient narrator, you no longer have to be omniscient. Gaps in the narrator's knowledge can be part of the characterization. If he (I'm also not ready to write in first person for a female character) doesn't know where he is, you don't have to tell people precisely where he is. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I'm a writer and editor who has lived in Washington for 12 years after long stays in France and Germany.
Barnaby Woods Books: Backstage
http://www.barnabywoodsbooks.com/p/backstage.html
The republication of Gold. Has been a real success and the knock-on effect on sales of The Grand Mirage. Gives some indication that it truly does help to have more titles out there. It is a big incentive to get some of the works in progress finished. It seems relatively certain at this point that the new financial thriller in progress will be the next Barnaby Woods Books publication. It is not a sequel to Gold. But more like a 2012 version, with a Washington blogger as the protagonist. John Marks was an ...

You Are What You Eat
You Are What You Eat. Tuesday, December 20, 2016. Shredded beef ragu, Moroccan roast chicken. Andrea fixed one of her favorite recipes from The New Basics Silver Palate cookbook - a pot roast and pasta recipe that involved braising bottom round with onions and tomatoes, then shredding it and braising it some more. The beef totally absorbs the tomatoey sauce. We served on anelloni - short, large diameter tubes - she bought online. Links to this post. Thursday, December 08, 2016. From Sara Jenkins' Oranges.

That wasn't the point of our two-week trip over the holidays, but an added bonus that we could dine at Proof on Main, Cafe Pasqual's, Red Prime Steakhouse, and Etch as we made a round trip out to Santa Fe. Proof on Main, Louisville. Cafe Pasqual's, Santa Fe. In Santa Fe, the birthday celebration on New Year's ...

My Beer, Wine and Spirits Blog. Saturday, July 12, 2014. Photo by Fernet Branca. Though I was a bit critical of the book Replay.

The objective of the craft cocktail movement is to tinker with ingredients and create blends that yield a new flavor, a taste all its own where you cannot easily discern the components...
