If [livejournal.com profile] matociquala can do it, so can I. Kind words from MaryMary, who liked "The Myrmidons" best of The First Heroes:
Hammer is a fabulous poet, er, he writes fabulous poetry: good story, funny plot twist, a few characters to get into, language that didn't take itself seriously except when it should.
She also liked Lois Tilton's "The Matter of the Ahhiyans." Some editor really ought to buy Lois's elven Regency novel -- think Jane Austen meets Tam Lin; it's very good.

Speaking of ants: ObWriting )

ObLinky: (edited) Speaking of poetry, proof that verse broadens the mind. Though actually all they've proven is that poetry takes more work to read than prose, to which I say "duh." Speaking of hard work, an Analytical Onomasticon to Ovid's Metamorphoses, which is useful even if you don't know Latin. And if you do know Latin, help Wikibooks build their self-study textbook. Speaking of studies, Christopher Faraone on Ancient Greek love magic and curse tablets. And finally and randomly, what Mars would look like with water.
