"The basic premise of the event is that hunters hunt rattlesnakes from the surrounding environment all across West Texas, and bring them into the roundup for the weekend. And during the roundup, these snakes are kept in a pit and then, one by one, beheaded and skinned in front of in front of audiences." - Elizabeth MeLampy Elizabeth MeLampy is a lawyer dedicated to animal rights and protection, and her passion for this work shines through in her latest book, Forget the Camel, the Madcap World of Animal Festivals and What They Say About Being Human . To research the book, Elizabeth traveled across the country, immersing herself in a wide range of animal festivals — from the Iditarod dog sled race to the rattlesnake roundup in Sweetwater, Texas. Elizabeth examines these festivals as revealing microcosms of our broader relationship with animals. Whether it's rattlesnake hunts, frog-jumping contests, ostrich races, or groundhog celebrations, these events reflect the ways humans use animals to express cultural identity, community pride, and historical traditions. Yet beneath the pageantry and excitement lies a deeper question: Is our fascination with these spectacles worth the toll it takes on the animals involved? With compassion and insight, Elizabeth invites readers to consider whether there’s a more ethical and empathetic way to honor our stories — one that respects both animals and the traditions they inspire. Please listen, share and read, Forget the Camel. It will be released on April 8th, 2025. https://apollopublishers.com/index.php/forget-the-camel/…

Spring is almost here and y'all know what that means! Hades and Demeter are about to have to meet up at the Mt. Olympus parking lot to exchange little Persephone as per the custody arrangement. This month's novel is more than just a re-telling of the Greek myth every girl in a flower crown circa 2017 knew. It's one of the first retellings that we now take for granted since Madeline Miller's "Circe" popped off. This has been one of my favorite paperbacks to recap for y'all so please, gather up some figs to munch on, some olive oil to rub on, and a big goblet of ambrosia as I tell you the love story of Hades and Persephone...as well as the tragedy of Demeter and Kore. 0:00 Intro 12:33 Triggers and Disclaimers 15:06 Cover Art Discussion 22:28 Fictional Author Lore 26:42 Dazzling Brightness Begins! 53:56 A Gift, or a Burden? 01:25:34 Queen of the Underworld 01:54:16 Poseidon's Palace 02:21:45 New Plan! ...Again! 02:36:59 Epilogue 02:40:46 Montana's State of Mind 02:48:26 Next Book!!!

Happy Black History Month! To help celebrate, I wanted to give the spotlight to one of the best, and most famous of the historical romance authors, Beverly Jenkins. She not only gives us an American fairytale that could rival Cinderella, but also puts the "history" in historical romance. We will live, learn, and of course, love while I recap to y'all a wonderful story you're gonna think about every time you smell vanilla. Roll up your pants, take off your shoes, and let's wade into the beautiful waters of Indigo. 0:00 Intro 05:31 Patreon Info 07:14 Initial Feelings for Novel 08:02 Cover Discussion 11:40 Fictional Author Lore 17:23 American Girl Doll Drama 19:50 Novel Begins! 32:12 Hellooo Nurse 1:03:51 New Neighbors 1:31:29 All Fairytales Come to an End 1:58:34 Keeping Enemies Close 2:03:22 Ending/Audio Only 2:17:31 Montana's State of Mind 2:22:08 Next Month's Novel!!!

Words cannot describe the emotional turmoil this book has put me through. And yet, it is the words within this text that have caused such a reaction. I wanted to give some love to Native American Heritage Month with an appropriately themed novel and instead of a wild romp through the Arizona canyons with some hunk, we instead will be slung through the prickly cacti of cultural prejudices, washed in the streams of generational trauma, and wrapped in the warm, soft hides of a love that truly goes forever...and beyond.…
