Welcome to my outpost on the Web! I write SF, fantasy, and horror for fun and, hopefully, profit! Other interests include music, nature, science, humor, food, bib overalls, and pie throwing (both metaphorically AND literally). Stick around!

Stuff for a Sunday!
Some links before we head out to brunch in Manhattan, as people do! (I am so going to miss this city…but more on that another time!) :: A couple of Star Wars links first. Here’s an interesting interview with Lawrence … Continue reading
Thankfulness (Something for Thursday — Thanksgiving edition)
Wow…hard to believe it’s been a year since the last time I was thankful! There seems to be so much ugliness in the world right now, but I wonder if that’s not always the case…it comes and goes. But the … Continue reading

Bad Joke Friday!
A panda walks into a bar and says, “I’ll have a rum… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …and coke, please.” The bartender says, “OK, but why the big pause?” … Continue reading
Something for Thursday
Even despite the movie’s gaping historical inaccuracies and Kevin Costner’s less-than-robust attempt at a British accent, I still like the movie Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. I especially love its sweeping score by Michael Kamen, who is to my mind … Continue reading
