RainHandBooks: Book Review: Sushi (Taste and Technique)

About Your Reviewer

I am a novelist, book reviewer, tabletop gamer, obsolete video game enthusiast, father to my wonderful girls, and dog show roadie to the love of my life. I have also dabbled extensively in the realms of fanfiction, commission writing, comic book script adaptation, and audio adaptations of print works. I consider myself a student of all literary genres, and always keep a notebook (yes, a paper one) handy for the occasional brainstorm. Meanwhile, I like to help new and self-published authors get another feather in their caps.

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)

I recopy the above quotes into every new idea book I carry around with me. The first reminds me to keep an open mind and consider the position of others, even if I may not agree. The second reminds me that there is always something more than what we can perceive.
