Overhaul of the “Deadly Troubadours” Page

After a morning of taking care of the little man, it was back to the blog. The main focus for today was an overhaul of the “Deadly Troubadours” page. Now it should be easier on the eyes and easier to find necessary information. Especially where to buy and where to review. That said, I would… More Overhaul of the “Deadly Troubadours” Page

Another Way to Buy Deadly Troubadours

Deadly Troubadours is now available as a paperback from Amazon. I know it is available on the US version and I am pretty sure it is available in Europe. The book looks nice enough. Its dimensions aren’t as wide as the Indiegogo version. Also, I think the inside art looks better in the Indiegogo version… More Another Way to Buy Deadly Troubadours

Those who have decided to hate this movie simply because it stars four women are poo-poo stupid heads.… More Thoughts on the New Ghostbusters Trailer

A Day of Rest

After dealing with a migraine yesterday, today was my first day of true rest in the last two weeks. It felt glorious. After what started as a sleepless night, I managed to stay in dreamland until almost 10:00am. This is almost unheard of under normal circumstances. After that, a leisurely morning of coffee and breakfast… More A Day of Rest

Migraines

Today is a day of good news bad news. The good news was that the Mrs. was able to get her art project finished in time. Which is great because it is scheduled to be shown at a gallery in London. I’ll add more info to that later. The final version can’t be revealed yet… More Migraines
