"Maybe he thought his mass army would raise itself, or the Hand of Allah would wave it into existence, a fundamentalist child’s notion of God, much too popular and inefficient at best."

I'm new at this, and I broke a rule. I have a book reviewer.

She's got lots of links, though, and shout outs. :3
I'm on Tumblr!

The blog died...but so did I...and now I'm alive again! OMG.

Today I have a post on incorporating backstory into your story without halting the plot. I'd love to hear other thoughts on great techniques for including backstory! :D
