I write about bears, vampires, Rome, giants, religion, and Loon Lake. Proud Iowan. Baseball, hot dogs, sumo, and the Dead Milkmen. Cracker Barrel liberal.

Got back to Gone Girl. Man, what a wild book. It's your typical true crime meets "crazy bitch" story but also the "wrong man" is also an unlikeable, deserving, dick. There is a point where it doubles down on Amy being evil and allows reader to be Nick sympathetic. Don't love that

I haven't read a ton of Philip K Dick, but when I do, I'm always stricken at what a captivating writer he is, even when he's going full weird. I need to figure out that hook, that "I need to read more to see what this is building towards" skill.

Every afternoon they put out carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, cheese squares, hummus, crackers, pita chips, ranch, and a gardettos style mix. Why would I ever go home?

I miss that era when fantasy and sci-fi were all the same genre and you could have space ships, lasers, swords and goblins all in the same setting

Annotated screenplay, with deleted scenes. Going to be a blast to read.

The @ValiantComics lending library is ready to launch. Keep tuned to the Becoming Valiant podcast for more details in the coming weeks.

Most paperbacks shown will be eligible to borrow via US mail. I'm buying out of my own pocket as I find good deals.
