Being a Media Trash Goblin Is a Full Time Job
•
Now don’t let that last post give you any untoward ideas. Horror isn’t all I consume–just 90% of it. The remaining 10% is pretty diverse, but 50% of it is garbage. 70%… OK, 90%. 1. LOVE. Watching TRASH. And I’m not talking subjective trash what you can bluff your way out…

A Quiet Companion
•
I grew up an indoor kid. I may have said this before, but stick with me. I wasn’t allowed to join any after-school activities like teams or clubs; I wasn’t allowed to visit the few friends I’d made, despite that first hurdle (with the rare exception of playing warden to…

•

What’s In a Name?

GIVEAWAY ENTRY POST
•
This isn’t narcissism, I swear, though it’s going to sound a lot like it. It’s not a self-congratulatory pat on the back, but I have to ask… What’s your favorite part from one of my books? Last year around this time, I had a giveaway, wanting to give out something…
