Here We Go Again
Ready for the masses after some time off. This weekend, I yanked the band-aid off and returned to the table game. It has been three or four years since I set up at a convention. Or anywhere for that matter... It was amazing to meet and connect with readers again in person. I set up …
The Battle Ends Soon
I'm writing the final battle as we speak. The end of the second American Civil War is at its end. The reanimate forces commanded by the traitor Peter Conner and a reluctant Robert E. Lee are devouring everything they engage in Washington. Meanwhile, the surviving members of the Sword race to stop Conner from his …
Texas Chain-meh Massacre
Man, the roaches are big here. Okay, I love a good bloody horror flick. I will give most any slasher, possession, haunted house, or bloody-whatever a look. I get it, I'm easy.

Under the Rock
Wow. It feels like I haven't been here to see you wonderful people in a long time. When I look at the last post, it was a long time. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, but things have been very busy in the game of life. Things are calming down, but the new material …
The Past That Shaped Us
Recently, I've found myself in the perfect storm of nostalgia. Friday, Employee Picks was released on Kindle and in paperback. There is a hardcover that will be on sale soon. The book is by Sean Cochrane, Dillon Brown, Jack Wallen, and myself and it's a love letter to video stores and VHS horror films from …
