Thanks man, just starting out on this site so hopefully more to follow. I had mainly only done film reviews before.
Hey, Michael! Nice to "meet" you. My husband is the big horror fan in the family, and he goes to IAFA all the time. He teaches horror, literature. Although he doesn't keep up his Goodreads site much, I will ask him to contact you (his name is Rafael Miguel Montes). I can't believe you get to teach pop CRW. I was just thinking the other day that someone REALLY needed to do that!
Hot Damn! Michael ARmaggeddon HIMSELF on GOOD READS! Thanks for the add! I look forward to reading more of your work!Beast Witches, K.K.
Hi Michael!Here’s wishing you a yippee-filled Yuletime overflowing with yard-long yams, yapping yoyo-yanking yetis, yak-milk yeast-cakes, and yellow yarn-yielding year-end yard-gnomes.
-Jeremy :)
