Have you ever rewatched a movie and realized how much it shaped you? For Halloween, the S.O. and I were looking for a spooky watch. I don't really like horror in the gory sense, but I am into anything with vampires, werewolves, and monsters of various stripes, especially if there's some good action involved. While...

Welcome to November
Good morning everyone. We are officially one day in to National Novel Writing Month. Excuse me. *Screams in writer* Okay, that's better.

The great vampire vs. zombie debate

Damn fine Lovecraft reimaginings

In defense of Sokka
Since I've been re-watching Avatar, several people have asked me what kind of bender I am. The S.O. opines often that I am a firebender, but to be honest I've never felt completely connected with any of the bending disciplines. The character that I feel the greatest connection to, actually, is Sokka. (For the record,... Continue Reading →

I've had two goals for the past few months that I've been working on. One is to be on submission. This takes a lot more work than you probably think it does, and... Continue Reading →
