✧ This is the updated canon for The Quimby Hotel, in novel form.

It's 1964, and with segregation ending, tensions between humans and mages are at an all-time high. Cairo Quimby, a twenty-something half-mag' nobody who turns in dead criminals for a living, wants nothing more than to leave the past behind, but when the Inusit Court sends officers to beat him bloody for something his stepfather's done, he has little choice but to go back home to the floundering hotel his parents run and get to the bottom of what's going on. His father is hiding something, and whether he likes it or not, the Court have decided Cairo is involved.

Unfortunately, home means siblings that hate him, new siblings he's never met, dealing with his stubborn, bullheaded father, and time running out as hotel guests begin turning up dead one by one. Cairo has no choice but to pick up his magic again, enlist the help of a sister he loathes, and figure out what's really behind this vendetta against the Quimbys ⸻ even if it means confronting the reason he left in the first place.

The clock is ticking, and there are sins to atone for, blood to be spilled.

Earning my Wings: A Mormon Woman's Journey to Marine Corps Aviator by JanineSpendlove

I wrote this book primarily for my children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great grandchildren, great-great-great… well, you get my drift. Having not yet completed my service to the United States Marine Corps, I thought it would be a bit presumptuous to pen my memoirs. That said, my family and friends have always enjoyed hearing my flight stories. So, I dug out some of my old journals and decided that I’d give an accounting of my flight school adventures. This is by no means representative of everyone’s time in Naval Flight School—this was just my personal experience and point of view on things. So, if you’d like to find out how a Utah girl who’d never given any thought to becoming a pilot before, much less touched the controls of the plane, ended up earning her wings of gold, read on. Semper Fly, Janine K. Spendlove ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ From my journal, dated 3 March 2002 On Monday something crazy happened. We were flying our Form Solo. I was “lead” so I named our flight “Vader” flight, cool eh? So anyway I was flying us out to the area (2F) & as soon as I leveled us off @ 6500ft I noticed my oil pressure was dropping. This is bad because if it drops too low your propeller will feather & your plane becomes a glider—basically your engine is worthless. I stayed calm & let my flight instructor know about my problem. The instructor in the chase plane sent my wing home & followed me down & made my radio calls for me while I executed my emergency landing at Brewton field. My landing was ugly—but I was nervous. I didn’t break anything & I’m alive. ☺
