I've been conflicted about this book since the moment I started reading it. As an independent author, I really like to try and push up other author's works as much as possible. I'm not generally as concerned about telling everyone that I didn't like a book by someone whose name is instantly recognized. But for …

I have to admit that in my relatively short time as a published author, I've been incredibly lucky with the reviews I've gotten. I say lucky because no matter what my books might deserve for reviews, every author gets those horrible ones from time to time, no matter how good their stuff is. Just a …

The San Diego Comic Convention has been around for a lot longer than I have (you know, a little over a decade longer). But for longer than I can remember it's been a place that I longed to visit. As the nerds take over, that becomes even more true. What used to be a non-spectacle …

Me and popularity have had quite a time over the years. As a real young buck, I don't really remember there ever being a real concept of popularity. I remember having friends. I remember it being easy to make friends. I remember it being simple. As I got a little older and started entering the …
I grew up in South Carolina, so when Wisconsin reaches these astronomical temperatures of 94 (granted the heat index may have been up to 120), I can't help but feel incredibly weak for complaining about it. And the truth of the matter is, I do actually enjoy the heat...but I also enjoy a bit of reprieve from …

Before I begin today, I want to point out the link over on the right (at least for those of you seeing the proper site...who knows about those of you with the mobile version, and if you're using a feedreader, well, yeah, of course it's not there). You can enter to win one of three …
I didn't make this. The folks at fix.com did. Go here for the big one: http://www.fix.com/blog/pond-fishing-tips/ You see, I got an e-mail. They asked me to promote this. And I'm a shill...But also, as you know, I like sharing fun and clever things for folks, and, well, I like fishing..and...this is actually not too shabby of …
