Chapter Five | Book 3 - Reborn as a Dark Lord (A cozy-adjacent isekai) The walking corpse stood a dozen feet away. It didn't advance, dance, or perform anything remotely dangerous. Its head swiveled as if to take in everyone. The creature gave me the creeps. Like the shi...

Doesn’t ’touring castles’ sound like a business tax write off? Hell yeah it does.

Know what wasn't a slick movie? Longlegs. I literally LOL'd at the ending scene. Not enough Nicholas Cage. Ridiculous occult take. It would have been much better had this movie been set in the '70s. Great performances but a dumb plot.

Strange Darling was a hell of a slick movie. It skipped around between six chapters, and it somehow worked. The actors were terrific in this oneβ€”just a terrific serial killer movie.

Yet another new cover. My wife and I are writing a series of American Giallos. They're fun, set in the 1980s, and feature rampant murder, strippers, and cocaine.

How would you do in a zombie apocalypse? πŸ§Ÿβ€β™€οΈπŸ§Ÿβ€β™‚οΈ Would you be a fierce survivor, using your wits and brawn to stay alive? Or would you be a zombie, shuffling aimlessly in search of brains? Or would you just taste delicious?
