Dark, soulful tales that haunt long after the last page.
Kim and I watched Casino Royale last night. I have to say, that might not be the worst James Bond movie ever, but it’s damn sure the worst I’ve ever sat through. It was slow. It was predictable. It was borrrrrrrring! I had a bad feeling when the pre-credits segment was a total dud, and…
Okay, maybe it isn’t a blizzard, but we do have a chance of snow this weekend. Snow! In April! It’s mighty cold out right now, the wind is howling and it’s alternating between hard rain and a steady mist. Nasty stuff! Maybe one last freeze will kill some of the brown dog ticks we’re already…
I got home from Broken Arrow a few hours ago. The NSU Living Literature workshop was fun. I got there just in time to watch 28 Days with them yesterday. It was only the second time I’d seen that one. It was better than I remembered. Not that I didn’t like it the first time…
Have you read a Deborah LeBlanc novel yet? If you haven’t, you should. Deb is one of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet, and one hell of a writer. She’s got three novels out from Leisure Books now, and a new one coming this summer. A House Divided is her most recent,…
The difference between a brainstorm and a brain fart is the amount of wind produced, right? Put out the windsock and let’s see what we’ve got. While watching The Simpsons this evening FOX showed the one where the young ladies are doing a live cam show in Flanders’ spare bedroom. Their Web site name, http://www.sexyslumberparty.com…
For the record, I have never masturbated to a picture of Barbara Boxer. Ewwwww. The mere thought makes me shudder. That said, Brian Keene’s earlier post today got me to thinking about how I’ve been spending spring break. A week off, and I’ve spent way too much time on message boards, tinkering with my new…
Some of you may have already realized I did a complete redesign of my Web site, www.stevenewedel.com. It isn’t completely finished; I’m still tweaking colors and sizes of the boxes and such. No frames, though. I remember a certain reptilian Web designer making fun of me at Horrorfind last year for still using frames. It…
Got an e-mail from my former agent today. That alone was unexpected enough. But the e-mail he sent said that Tor had rejected Shara. Umm, okay. I didn’t know he’d sent Shara to Tor. I wrote back and asked if he meant to say they’d rejected Amara’s Prayer and he said no, that he still…
First, a dirty secret. I’m sitting here on my bed with the laptop and an MP3 player. I’m listening to Elvis sing “If You Love Me (Let Me Know)” and I’m still disappointed I couldn’t find an MP3 of the Olivia Newton-John version. There are certain songs that just remind me of being in grade…
Remember back in January when I was on The Darker Side of the Moon Internet radio show? I finally remembered to go back and see if the show had been archived. It has been archived. If you missed it and want to hear it, here it is. I seemed to have overlooked a couple of…
