BLZBob Mission
BLZBob! Mission

Design and build pages that showcase talent in the fields of graphics, music, and/or literature.

Exactly what does this mean?

I don't know but I'll get it figured out as I go. Just bear with me!

Well, I sort of got an idea ---

If you do graphics/music/writing -- then let me know and I'll see about showcasing your talent.

THERE! That's the word...SHOWCASE!

This site will be a showcase of talent. Enjoy.

Welcome to the re-vamped BLZBob site

It has taken some time to figure out exactly what this site will be used for but finally, I have decided. Some have asked what 'bezzlebob' means. To begin with, it is B-L-Z-Bob (pronouced Bee-el-za-Bob) and if you look at the words below the logo, you'll see what it means.

Why a Library? Simple. Books, Art, Music. You find all of them in a library. So, in this particular place I will post news of what is happening, new reviews of books, graphics, and even music. I'm very opinionated but most of my reviews will be for books. I especially enjoy science fiction and/or fantasy. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a good adventure, mystery and, if done properly, a scary horror story. A note on the last category -- if you write extremely, hmm... shall we say too graphically (in other words: blood, guts and gore) I will probably not enjoy it too much. Of course, a good paranormal romance is always enjoyable, too.

So, if you have written a novel, had it published whether it be self-published, small press or big house -- and you want to send me that book to review... contact me: blzbob AT blzbob.com
I think you understand to replace 'AT' with a '@' and remove spaces!

So, what is the first review? This time I will use nepotism, of sorts. I will review one of my own books -- one I co-edited with a good friend, Elyse Salpeter.


Current Review

Title: Grounds for Murder
Author: John Russo
ISBN: 978-0-9865875-1-1
Review: This is my first ebook review. I found the story very intriguing and was trying to figure out who was the culprit. And that is what a great mystery is all about - the "whodunit" syndrome. John wove a great tale with quaint details which left me almost smelling the ocean tides. Well written.
