This page serves as a list of what would normally be “Author’s Notes”. For now, I am including a brief article description below the article link. If I later feel I should further categorize these articles to specific books in the series, I will separate these groups of articles with smaller level 2 headings.

The initial order of these links is alphabetical, which is not necessarily published order. I felt alphabetical would work better for everyone’s reference.

The “rating”, shown in parentheses after the article title below and after the sub-heading “Rated” within the article, is something I decided to add as an afterthought, and is my best estimate based on my perceptions of content and ratings:

• G is for a general audience, or for children under the age of 13.
• PG is for audiences age 13 or older.
• R is tricky since I feel it should be for audiences age 18 or older, but I have seen references to age 17 or older, so I am going with the latter.
• M is for mature audiences age 21 or older, though “maturity” is a matter of perception which does not strictly adhere to that minimum age.

Enjoy!

Note: Each link below should open in its own tab or window, depending on your web browser and settings, but the intent is to allow you to close an article after you have finished reading it. In general, this is the way most links on this site will function.
