Fat Mogul vs. The Bad Review

I have to admit that in my relatively short time as a published author, I’ve been incredibly lucky with the reviews I’ve gotten.  I say lucky because no matter what my books might deserve for reviews, every author gets those horrible ones from time to time, no matter how good …

Fat Mogul vs. Kindle Unlimited and Giveaways and other such nonsense

Disclaimer: I was not asked by and will not be reimbursed in any way by Amazon for this post which really highlights my love of how they’ve helped me with selling my books.  However, if Amazon were to decide to give a little extra marketing oomph because of this, I …

Fat Mogul vs. Comic-Con

The San Diego Comic Convention has been around for a lot longer than I have (you know, a little over a decade longer).  But for longer than I can remember it’s been a place that I longed to visit.  As the nerds take over, that becomes even more true.  What …

Fat Mogul vs. The Boy(‘s Birthday!)

I know I just had a chat about my son on here a couple days ago, but that was, officially, more about my new son, the one still percolating, even if I discussed my fulled baked son more in there than anything else. But I have to give him his …

Fat Mogul vs. Popularity

Me and popularity have had quite a time over the years.  As a real young buck, I don’t really remember there ever being a real concept of popularity.  I remember having friends.  I remember it being easy to make friends.  I remember it being simple.  As I got a little …

Fat Mogul vs. The Heat

I grew up in South Carolina, so when Wisconsin reaches these astronomical temperatures of 94 (granted the heat index may have been up to 120), I can’t help but feel incredibly weak for complaining about it.  And the truth of the matter is, I do actually enjoy the heat…but I also enjoy …

Fat Mogul vs. The Boy

I grew up as the oldest of three kids, both of my siblings being girls.  In my extended family, once again, females ruled.  Sure, my father had seven brothers, but all of them seemed to have girls (well, except one of them who had two boys, and later on there …

Fat Mogul vs. #LootCrate

Before I begin today, I want to point out the link over on the right (at least for those of you seeing the proper site…who knows about those of you with the mobile version, and if you’re using a feedreader, well, yeah, of course it’s not there).  You can enter …

Fat Mogul vs. Fishing

I didn’t make this.  The folks at fix.com did.  Go here for the big one: http://www.fix.com/blog/pond-fishing-... You see, I got an e-mail.  They asked me to promote this.  And I’m a shill…But also, as you know, I like sharing fun and clever things for folks, and, well, I like fishing..and…this is …

Fat Mogul vs. Weird Al

Weird Al is back, folks…I mean, I guess he never really left, seeing as his last album was released just a few years ago, but I completely missed that one (possibly due to the fact that it was a lesser album than most).  But this week he’s decided to go …
