Can’t Wait for This One
James Roday’s Gravy is one of the very, very good ones, I mean. Right up there with Murder Party, even. Fingers crossed this is more of the same:

Submitted for Your Approval

the Guran (Mapping the Interior): https://www.amazon.com/Years-Best-Dark-Fantasy-Horror-ebook/dp/B07HGBQ33K/the Boop (“Stands Twice and the Magpie Man”): https://www.amazon.com/Straight-Outta-Deadwood-David-Boop/dp/148148432X
Too, I keep all these covers, most with links, over on the Anthos page.
And, case you maybe missed them, the two just before this, which is the same thing: one in-(my)hand, one on the way:…

Bob Seger last night
( looks like a Steely Dan medallion-thing but: that’s the Silver Bullet, man )The culmination of many years of wishing, for me. Seems it was about a year and a half, maybe two years ago that I was on the road somewhere and happened to actually READ one of my junk emails, which turned out to be about coming concerts in Denver, and: Bob Seger was coming to town. I was buying tix a few minutes later—and paying more for them than I’ve paid for some trucks I’ve o…

Cars, Cars, Cars
This is my kind of post:
Celebrating the 13 Most Famous Cars in Horror!
All I’d add—well, not ‘all,’ but one I’d for-sure add would be that monster’d out El Camino from Little Evil:
Also, I guess, no surprise that El Caminos lodge in the old memory banks, seeing as how that’s the key car in Mongrels:

LotR, D&D style
Ridiculous: solely because of this fun thread, I suspect, this weekend while I was laid up with a three-day fever and a cough I thought would hollow me out completely, leave nothing but a husk of a dude behind, I ended up putting in the extended edition of Fellowship. Still good as ever (though, first time I saw it, Boromir wasn’t Eddard Stark…), and now I have to find like eight hours to finish the trilogy. But it’ll be worth it. Again.
