Iryanne: A Love that Never Was, a Love that Never Ends.
I opened Iryanne with a raised eyebrow. Black-and-white photographs, song lyrics, poems, quotations from books and films, legends, mythology, even scientific theories. A literary hodgepodge , I thought.

Caught in the Middle. When the Child is not a Child
Abandoned by his wife, Mariano Groa cannot come to terms with the collapse of his marriage; not so much, it must be said, because of his feelings for her, but rather because of the care and attention she used to provide. There is much that could be said about the theme of women reduced to the role of caregivers, but there is another aspect of this story that has received less attention: the difficult position of Torellino, the child caught in the middle of a failed relationship.

So, You've Just Published a Book. Top Story - October 2026.
It’s actually been about four months since I published my first book, The Gragon. I originally planned on writing this article three months ago, but work got in the way. That’s actually a recurring theme in my life for the last few years. Too much work, not enough time to write. But I do my best to strike when the iron’s hot. Or at least lukewarm.

Mississippi Wizards . Top Story - October 2026.
What better way to start off spooky season than a little horror book review from one of our very own! You know those trope boards? Those ones all over booktok? I despise, no I abhor those things because if you only ever pick books like you're ordering at Chipotle, you might never pick up a book like this.

The Wilderness by Angela Flournoy. Top Story - September 2026.
The Wilderness by Angela Flournoy As I take the time to write this, I had just purchased this novel, The Wilderness by Angela Flournoy. It’s been over a year maybe two since I have read a novel and I’m looking forward to reading this one. I’ve had very little time with my 72-hour work weeks six days a week to fit in a novel, and when I do it’s a slow read. With what little time I have I’m focused on reading a writing poetry. I didn’t purchase it because it was a Kirkus Prize Finalist, in fact I’ve never heard of Angela before. I purchased this book because of what Angela said in an interview with Brad Listi on the Other People Podcast as follows:
