Ricardo "Mad Doctor in spooky castle" Victoria

YouTube video by Implicitly Pretentious Superman (2025).

This is why Superman 2025 is my favorite Superman film:

"Post a hot vampire"

I actually like this. I want to see him addressing other issues plaguing the Church though. But this is a step in the right direction.

Se le va a extrañar mucho. 🫂 Perder a un amigo y tan de pronto nunca es fácil para nadie (me paso algo similar con mi mejor amigo hace ya años).

Es curioso (en términos de nostalgia y duelo) ver los programas recientes donde participo.

Si luego necesitas platicar con alguien aquí andamos.

Because sometimes is nice to think about the possibilities.

“I slept through big chunks of history”.

#WIP Vagrant. 11 rules for rules for immortal sanity through the end of the world (or a title like that, still working on that).

Night rant: For several personal & work related reasons this look like it will be a horrible birthday month. I don’t know why I even bother. Haven’t had a good one since I lived in UK and it has been 20 years since then.

The only thing I’m expecting with some hope is the release of my latest book.

Good for DC.

I really recommend it, if any, because it explores at detail and care the psychological side that the film left out, doing a better job at explaing why Anakin did what he did. Not justifying it, but showing his inner thought process.

Why the Legendary 'Revenge of the Sith' Novelization Had to Depict the Moment Yoda Knew He Failed Matthew Stover takes us into the Jedi Master's mind in our exclusive look inside the sumptuous 20th anniversary edition of his iconic 'Revenge of the Sith' novelization.

To this day this is one of my favorite books and one of my to go inspirations for writing (much to the chagrin fo a fellow author who I know is not a fan of it). I wish I would get this shinny annotated copy to explroe more about Stover's process.

Hay pocos trabajos más descorazonadores que ser maestro universitario.

Hoy no fue un buen día.

Awww. Thanks! I was referring to the fact that hasnt't win any award (just nominated). But Thank you, I really appreciate you think that.

Funny: my book series checks most of the items on the list. Aside from being a winner.

Would Sid found as team mascot?

Good for them. Time to retake what was theirs originally and later stolen.

In all seriousness, publishers are going to have to figure out how to market books in the post-social-media landscape. That should be an implicit part of their job. What authors/artists can do on their own is increasingly limited and siloed.

One life lesson that should be considered is that sometimes not everything has to have a debate. I’m talking minor stuff like which superhero is better, not life altering stuff of course.

We need to learn the difference between both to choose the battle wisely, enjoy stuff and avoid burn out.

+ something spooky:

Now that spooky season just begins, I want to mention that I wrote 2 horror stories for the Wicked Library. You can listen to one of them here:

The Sound of Madness, my own take to cosmic horror mixed with SF.

thewickedlibrary.com/1103/

I caught up later with that and makes me wonder what kind of horror they do actually like.

Of that list I only agree with the second to last item.

Thanks for the explanation! 😊

It sounds that they only accept stories about The horror of existence perhaps. Very post modern and realistic I guess.

That’s why I work with one of two Artist for the covers of my books (‘y publishers have agreed to that and have been happy with them): either my wife or my friend @rodavlas.bsky.social
