Looking for more books for your TBR pile? Here are books that grabbed my attention this week. These are not generally books that I have already read, though a few of them might be. They are books that I have seen and added to my TBR list, looked up on Amazon, loved the cover of, etc. Just a quick run-through of what caught my eye, so you can have a look too.

One of the reasons that I picked up The Gauguin Connection by Estelle Ryan is that like This Plague of Days, it involves a protagonist on the autism spectrum at the center of an intriguing plot. And unlike This Plague of Days, The Gauguin Connection gives us a capable, believable, well-rounded autistic character (and a great plot!): ...

I have decided to start a (hopefully) regular feature on books that have grabbed my attention in the last week (or however long it has been since I got the last feature up).

I'm not big on apocalyptic, but was intrigued by his use of an autistic character and wanted to see how he portrayed Jamie and got into his head. Jamie has Aspergers Syndrome and is a functional mute with an obsession for words/etymology. I was disappointed to find that Chute only has a superficial understanding of the Autism Spectrum, and has endowed Jamie with mystical/paranormal powers. But I'm still reading it because I want to see how it all turns out ...

It's sort of like Christmas in July; NaNoWriMo is just too much fun to only do once a year. Or, er, only three times per year... When I made my initial five-year plan for publishing, I decided that I would continue to write three new books per year (writing the first draft for Camp Nano in April, Camp Nano in July and NaNoWriMo in November) as well as working on finishing, rewriting, editing, and revising my backlist for publishing. It was a good plan. But my creative brain starts to itch during the long space between November and April, and my logical brain points out that I have a new writing project planned for Q2, Q3, and Q4, but nothing in Q1, which is rather unbalanced.
