New Book Release, Conference, Shirley Temple, and It Came From the Great Salt Lake
An exciting anthology, It Came From the Great Salt Lake, will be released at this year's Life, the Universe, and Everything (LTUE) Conference. It features a great bunch of authors, beginning to published, with selections of horror that extend from one end of the spectrum (YA, humor) to the other (dark, urban).
I played a small part in the selection of pieces, editing, and other assorted

A Short Stay in Hell
A Short Stay in Hell by Steven L. Peck
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I usually am disappointed when I read books based on other books or short stories, in this case, Jorge Luis Borges' La biblioteca de Babel (The Library of Babel). In this case, I found several things that interested me: Mormonism, Zoroastrianism, and Existentialism, well, kind of. The Mormonism and Zoroastrianism are only entry points

Yes, the plot is slow moving and buried in the entertainment of description, but consider the

Transylvania Writing Workshop
Some tower in France:)
Let me begin with a few words of commentary: a once in a lifetime, bucket list checking, experience... and the workshop was icing on the cake. The journey began with a stop-over in Paris - Eiffel, Notre Dame, and the Louvre...it was a quick, down and dirty tour of the City of Lights and amazing.
Next, the Land Beyond the Forest, the home of Vlad Tepes, and all things

The Silent, Dream-Stealing Monster - C.R. Asay
A rather lovely post on the soul-sucking shroud of blackness called depression -
Nevermore
Words have no power to impress the mind without the exquisite horror of their reality.
