Thish is edited by me, Ruth R. Davidson, after a bit of bribery. The cover art is by the supremely talented siblings Lee & JJ MacFaddden. I love the cover art! The N3F Elections are really exciting. I can hardly wait to vote! I haven’t been this excited for our own elections for a couple of [...]

ruth-r.-davidson wrote a new blog post: Halo Soundtracks & History Essays 3 years, 4 months ago

So, I’m taking History 17A (from about the time of Columbus all the way to 1877) as an online course. For the last three days I’ve been writing two essays for this class, and that’s my first midterm (apparently I have two midterms plus a final). The essay topics are about slavery in the Chesapeake [...]

A new CD by Blackmore’s Night called Secret Voyage is coming out soon (though I got sick before I could post this and so it may be out already). I managed to get my hands on a review copy from Victor of Special Ops Media, and of course the deal was to write a review [...]

I came out of the theatre stunned. Simply stunned. Hands down, this is the BEST BATMAN MOVIE EVER. This movie is nine kinds of awesome. Yes, really. Okay, more than nine kinds but here are the nonspoiler versions. 1: Heath Ledger IS the Joker. 2: Aaron Eckhart IS Harvey Dent 3: Maggie Gyllenhaal IS Rachel [...]

My husband runs a game called Exalted. It’s a great role playing game and in many ways is a story of tragedy. You have the power of gods but all the exalted have been cursed. The Great Curse over time changes your greatest virtues and twists them into something else. So, Kenlon is a fabulous Game [...]

Where have I been? Or at least, why didn’t I notice this before? My husband and I have a sizeable collection of music. So when iTunes popped up with a song I didn’t recognize I thought, what’s this? Of course I go and look. It was called “Yoru no Melody” by Origa. It was nice. [...]

Whilst reading and commenting on the Hancock movie review it occurred to me that with our current inconsistent rating system that FanDominion readers, especially those with children, may want something a bit more consistent. Thusly I will share with you a rather spiffy website that I find useful. It is called http://www.kids-in-mind.com They have three…[Read more]

I was surprised at how well this movie turned out. I was not certain whether or not Robert Downey Jr could pull off being Iron Man. I knew he could play a jerk and honestly still had Heart and Soul pictured whenever I thought of him. So other than the being a jerk part, Iron Man [...]

ruth-r.-davidson wrote a new blog post: "Yesterday" and Today, Music in SF/F 3 years, 8 months ago

When I joined N3F many moons ago, I was fourteen. I really didn’t do much with it because I didn’t get this whole “be actively involved” idea as a fan. So, I wasted my big sister’s money. As I got older, but still only about sixteen or seventeen years old (still in high school basically) and rejoined, thanks again to the aforementioned sister, I…[Read more]
