What is RainHand?

RainHand Books is the personal website of Scott M. McCloskey; author of YA adventure fantasy, horror, sword & sorcery, and any new challenge I come across. The site has been around since the publication of my first novel in 2012, when it was originally part of a domain called 'ordonline' that focused only upon my Traveler of Ord novel series. Now that it is a site to reflect all of my literary works I use the name 'RainHand', which is a combination of the names of my children, whom I am well lost without.

Words of Wisdom

“I have always strenuously supported the right of every man to his own opinion, however different that opinion might be to mine. He who denies to another this right, makes a slave of himself to his present opinion, because he precludes himself the right of changing it.”
--Thomas Paine. "The Age of Reason" (1794)

"I look upon death as going home."
--Guan Yu, in Luo Guanzhong. "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" (14th Century)

"If you ain't where you are, you're noplace."
--Col. Sherman T. Potter, in M*A*S*H. "Dear Sis" S07E15 (1978)

"The best place to be is here. The best time to be is now, and all's we can say is...let's rock!"
--Bill S. Preston, esq. & Ted Theodore Logan, in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. (1989)

"Imagine what you'll know tomorrow."
--Agent Kay, in Men in Black. (1997)

I am ever reminded by these words to live in the moment, cherish that moment, to see the good and the bright, to open myself to possibilities, and to one day take home what I have learned with appreciation.
