hey guys,
A few weeks ago I started up a blog under the pseudonym Mars Moonwater. I'm currently running 2 weekly columns: Diverse Fantasy Reviews (DiFR) where I review fantasy books that have diverse characters or authors (LGBTQIA, POC, disabled, etc.). AND Infuriating Fantasy where I post rantings and ravings about anything to do with the fantasy genre.
DiFR goes up every Wednesday at 6PM pacific time and in my last article I reviewed Pantomime by Laura Lam, which I personally found to be rather problematic in it's depiction of diversity. For more details you can check out the article here: https://marsmoonwater.wordpress.com/2015/07/15/difr-5-pantomime-by-laura-lam/
Next week I will be reviewing the sequel Shadowplay
Infuriating Fantasy goes up every Saturday at 10AM pacific time, though I've been considering moving it to Friday at 6PM. Last weeks article talked about why I feel diversity is so important when it comes to fantasy. You can find the article here: https://marsmoonwater.wordpress.com...ow-everyone-can-be-a-dragon-riding-superhero/
Next week I will either talk about the Fantasy Novelist Exam or the Women in Fridge trope depending on whether or not my co-author for the latter one is available to work on it over the week.
Within a few weeks I hope to have a bi-monthly superhero series running that I call Coalition for Terran Defense. It will be the adventures of my own superhero team told in the form of short stories and maybe the occasional comic if I ever learn how to draw or have the money to hire an artist.
I look forward to seeing what you all think and greatly welcome any feedback you guys may have to help me improve what I do, especially since I hope to eventually make my living off of this.

Thanks guys
