Working on an "evil clown" story (sort of) in audio form right now -- TK, as we used to say in copyediting. But it reminded me of a cover for a wfh novel I never actually got to write. I own the cover now; all I need to do is actually have a story to tell. But DAMN, it's spooky...

#0siris, on Amazon Prime, is a noisy, shadowy new sf-action pic filled with BFGs that never run out of ammo. Decent sfx, but someone might want to tell the filmmakers that we prefer an actual plot with our gunfire, and characters that are more than NPCs in a forgettable FPO. Maybe next time.

There's no good reason why I've enjoyed #LegoMasters so much. It's grown people, Making insanely complicated LEGO constructs. With Will Arnett relentlessly teasing them and ridiculing the network. But Arnett is being replaced by Nick Cannon -- NICK CANNON -- next season. So I be done.

Very sad to see #ResidentAlien go, but not surprised. Glad, instead, that we got so many seasons of this funny, sweet, surprisingly smart show with All The Best People. Also happy they've tied up almost all the plot threads already. Still, I admit I was hoping for seven seasons and a movie.

Angry? I got you. Seriously. Either one will do.

You should not only read Kingfisher, you should follow this account and read the full, insane story.

I just opted out of a non-essential trip from Cali to DC because two stops at the DMV to FINALLY get my REAL ID was more time and effort than I wanted to put up with. I’m old and grumpy that way.

@DropoutTV, in general, and #GameChanger, in particular, is an absolute blast, especially this season of GameChanger. Not a game show, not a comedy show; a mind-altering experience. 7 seasons, watch them all right up to this week. Laugh, shout, scream and cry along with the rest of us!

I'm catching up on the Dexter revivifications (meh), and was delighted to see #ClancyBrown as the big bad in #DexterNewBlood. What an actor. What a voice. More than 350 acting credits, live action and voice. Character actors like him are rare and wonderful but rarely get the attention they deserve.

THE OUTSIDER is one of the best King adaptations ever, from novelist Richard Price with brilliant performances from #CynthiaErivo, #BenMendelsohn and so many others. Almost forgotten because it premiered in January 2020, it is deep, terrifying, touching amazing. On HBO Max and Amazon Prime.

Hey! Goin' to SDCC? Dig REVIVAL? We've got a panel and a signing for that. Get a free poster by series co-creator Mike Norton! @imagecomics.com @lukeslens.bsky.social @aaronbkoontz.bsky.social

#Revival is kinda-sorta a #zombie story, but it's way more interesting than just another #TWD rip. And it stars Melanie Scrofano (Wynona Earp, Strange New Worlds, Letterkenny), so of COURSE I'm there. A little violent, a little sexy (like Scorafino herself), and wholly unexpected.

Here, too, then: one of the proud, one of the few.

Hey, I’m still waiting for a TRIBE Netflix series. Or even Hulu, I’m not picky.

Yeah, I was one of the proud, the few who watched the ceremony on YouTube (TERRIBLE audio, sadly) and made a deep and sincere sound of disappointment when STAY ON THE LINE didn’t win. But it’s still one of my fave pieces of yours … and look,dude, I have the TRIBE books, I know whereof I speak!

#ResidentAlien just keeps getting better and better, but the latest episode with Stephen Root as @alantudyk.bsky.social ‘s Dad is just too damn good to be true.

The 2025 Shirley Jackson Awards for,outstanding achievement in the literature of psychological suspense, horror, and the dark fantastichave just been awarded. You can see the names of the winners and nominees in a new post on my website, link in bio , or go to https://www.shirleyjacksonawards.org/.

True. Let’s hope for a second season in something less than 3 years …

Yah sure you betcha!

Good Lord. And easy boycott, since the only thing worth watching on that entire list is Matlock, and its season is over. Good!

@inthedeepestsouth.bsky.social Ah, another Tudykion fan. Apropos of nothing, have you been watching Murderbot? Maybe my favorite sf adaptation since The Expanse …

I would listen to either Nathan Fillion or Alan Tudyk do anything. They could fart the alphabet and I'd be there. Now they're planning a new podcast, "Once We Were Spacemen," where they interview various sci fi pop cult celebs. I'm ready!

Just found out there’s a Shel Silverstein postage stamp. Maybe there is a wise and benevolent God after all.

Nahhhh …

Nat Cassidy is a damn genius at storytelling, and I hate him for it. Pure envy, I admit it. And his newest, When the Wolf Comes Home, is his best yet. Read it. Read ALL of his stuff; And read more about my love/hate relationship with Cassidy in my blog. Link in bio, y'dork.

Happy birthday to this king of fabulosity

Hector shouldn’t have moved. Things would have turned out very differently if he had simply stayed still. But he couldn’t. Not anymore. Something was different now.

This is an incredible story, front to back and end to end. Find it. Read it.

I'm so glad this exists

a tween came into the store for a copy of Wicked, which wasn’t anywhere it was supposed to be because we are still restocking, but after looking everywhere I finally found it in the back, and I sang, 🎶popular/these books are quite pop-yoo-hoo-lar🎶 as I put it in her hand and she looked SO HAPPY

In a larger sense, are we all in this book (or most of us, anyway)?

Wasn't there a CHANNEL ZERO about a staircase in the woods? Come onnnn, people. Get serious. As long as nobody steals my idea about people coming back from the dead and walking the earth, devouring human flesh, I'm good!
