Fantasy and science fiction books and blogposts
Two years ago, I walked into my first aerial silks class. About two weeks ago, I returned home from an intensive workshop in the tropics in aerial silks, flying trapeze, and acroyoga. I take aerial silks at a small studio in downtown Roanoke called Cirqulation, owned by my good friend Lynsey Wyatt. Lynsey is a... Continue Reading →
In the wake of this blogpost, you probably already know I'm a Rian Johnson fan. But in case you missed it: I love Rian Johnson. He's a super smart writer. And his recent film, Knives Out, showed just how deftly he could handle a theme and still keep you on the edge of your seat.... Continue Reading →
A friend recently got around to watching this movie and reminded me of the minimal-reshoot revisions that I posited back in May of last year! So without further ado, here's how I would have edited John Wick 2 to make it slightly more coherent (though we all know you're just watching for the action anyway).... Continue Reading →
Good golly it is that time. I'm starting the year off with a bang - I'll be traveling out of the country to study acrobatics for a week or so, and I'm really jazzed about that. In fact, by the time this post goes live I will probably be on a plane! So I haven't... Continue Reading →

I watched Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, last weekend, and I doubt I will surprise anyone when I say that I didn't like it. That is not to say that there weren't bits of it I loved fervently - I think all of the fight scenes between Rey and Kylo were excellently... Continue Reading →
Hey folks. It's that time of year. The time of year when I tell you about the books that have touched my soul this year, whether they came out this year or not, and hope you go buy them so these writers can make more sweet, sweet words. You ready? The Light Brigade - Kameron... Continue Reading →
This is the post where I try, desperately, to narrow things down enough to pick just ten - just ten! - short stories to talk about for the year of 2019. This is more short stories than I've ever put on my list before, and it was hard to just pick ten. There were so... Continue Reading →
Happy Thanksgiving, folks! This year I celebrated Thanksgiving with the S.O.'s family rather than my parents for the first time in a while. Usually we do two Thanksgiving's with the S.O.'s extended family (which is incredibly large) and then actual Thanksgiving with my parents, but due to his work schedule things are a little wonky...
