Daytime Ottawa with Dylan Black
Daytime OttawawithDylan Black, and co-hostSid Cratzbarg.
Here I am patiently (and nerveously!) waiting in the Green Room atRogers TV. It isn't the first time I've sat and waited in a Green Room, but it never gets any easier.It's the waiting that's the worst part. Gives you ample time to allow your imagination to run rampant as to how many things can go wrong!
Post-interview photo-op with Daytime Ottawa hostDylan Black, and co-hostSid Cratzbarg!Had a pretty fun time!

Three Books in One!
After my radio interviewlast The Wednesday Special Blend showwith 'tic' on CKCU, there seems to have been some confusion regarding the number of books withinThe Symbiot Series.
I can see why it's confusing. Hopefully I can clear up the confusion, and by going into detail, add a bit more!The Symbiot Seriesis currently composed of 5 books:
The Symbiot(I),The Hunt: Symbiosys(II),Necropolis: Pharaoh(III),Necropolis: Hybrids(IV), andNecropolis: R'lyeh(V).
In theirprint editions,NecropolisincludesIII, IV, and V.
Now, to give a bit more enticement, especially inthe openingebook ofNecropolis - Pharaoh:The firstebook ofNecropolis: Pharaohis comprised of three interwoven stories.The Eye of Osiris(set in ancient Egypt - c. 1242 BCE)Schäfer's Expedition(set in 1924-25)Diary of a Madman(set between 1994-2005)(and as the narrative jumps back and forth between them, they are actually titled as such!)Hopefully this makes it all clear as mud!
