A peek into what could have been... This was the sizzle reel that screenwriter Dave Kalstein made for the Jade City TV show back when it was in development at Peacock years ago. Imagine my surprise when it popped up in my YouTube recs. I still love it 🥲https://t.co/T4fUnrelcw
After 50 years, Harlan Ellison's anthology "The Last Dangerous Visions" is finally releasing today. @RollingStone let me talk w/some of Harlan's friends about why bravery on the page mattered in the 70's--and why it matters even more now.

It is fine, good even, for speculative fiction to be entertaining and action-packed along with profound and sincere but sometimes it must be merciless in the pursuit of Human truths and consequences.
Let Harlan grab you by the front of your shirt and pick this up!

One more time for folks on the day shift...
@RollingStone let me write about bravery on the page, anarchic joy and Harlan Ellison buying a fax machine to celebrate the 50-years-late release of his groundbreaking anthology, The Last Dangerous Visions.

Dracula is an epistolary novel and the narrative is told through diary entries, newspapers, and letters. Because of this style there is a way to read it in “real time” and the novel starts on May 3rd! This sub sends you Dracula in “real time”.

Congrats to all the talented journalists and food writers who were honored by the James Beard Foundation today. Most are freelancers and paid very little for their brilliant work, so click on their stories and read/share them today.
If you had told me a year ago that @phillymag would be nominated for not only one but two @beardfoundation awards today I'd have slapped the hoagie out of your hands. And yet!!!
So proud, every day, to work with this small but hungry staff. https://t.co/MfQGQ2WeY3
