Wild boars, coming to a bookstore near you!

I'm happy to report that the Johns Hopkins University Press will be publishing my book Reading Herodotus: A Guided Tour through the Wild Boars, Dancing Suitors, and Crazy Tyrants of The History. It should be out in the fall of 2012.

Play with your mind!

Alex Colket wrote me last week with word of his site online puzzle universe. I've been meaning to blog about it, but I haven't gotten to it yet because I haven't had time to fully explore everything he has on offer. But I don't want to hold off too long. He offers a host of different games and puzzles at three interrelated sites, Play With Your Mind, BrainBall, and WordBall. Some of these are daily games in which you can compete against others. I will, when time permits, explore Alex's sites further. For now, here are his descriptions:

Play With Your Mind -- this is my main site and has a huge collection of original mind game and puzzles... lots of word games too
BrainBall -- this is my special daily game where you compete against others in 10 different brain tasks and then get scores based on how you do.
WordBall -- this is the same as BrainBall but all word games

Do go investigate yourself, and let us know what you think!

And now I'm completely addicted to all the typing games...I'm afraid to look at much else. :)
