Waste your money on The Bitten Word edited by Ian Whates!
Continue reading “Review: The Bitten Word edited by Ian Whates”I read this book back in high school for the one pre-college literature class that sang to my soul: Sci-Fi / Fantasy Honors. Beowulf’s one of the oldest English stories in existence. I read another version of it in college that I plan to go through, but I distinctly remember not getting along with the college version as much as I did Nye’s.
Enjoy my highlights of Robert Nye’s Beowulf: A New Telling; Chapter I, A Ship Without a Sail.

If anybody out there struggles with poetry, you’re not alone. There’s help out there for us. Somewhere. I’ll google it later!
What I’m reading today is the Pallor Mortis (Birth) section of Anna Cheung’s debut anthology of Chinese Gothic horror poetry, Where Decay Sleeps, published by Haunt Publishing.
