I am no longer an Amazon Associate. I am currently working on updating my posts with links to various locations to buy books. One of the links I am including is to RJ Julia - this is my favorite local independent book store. You can shop their store online and have access to pretty much anything you are looking for. I do not have any affiliation with any of these sites - just looking to support my local indie book store.

Quote of the Day

This quote is from Queen Elizabeth I upon learning that she was now Queen of England.

"A Dominum factum est illud, et est mirabile in oculis notris"

or in plainer English

"It is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes."

I can't remember which, but one book I read on Elizabeth arranged that she stole this quote from someone else. I wish I could remember... it's pure fiction though -- she didn't copy it from anyone.
