Finalists for the 2008 Philip K. Dick Awards have been announced.
Alien Trespass - the lost 50s alien invasion movie. Or an indie homage.
Alien Trespass, which is set in 1957 and begins when a fiery object from space crashes into a mountaintop in the California desert. Out of the flying saucer escapes a murderous creature: the Ghota, which is bent on destroying all life forms on the planet. A benevolent alien from the spaceship, Urp, inhabits the body of Ted Lewis (Eric McCormack), a local astronomer, who with the help of Tammy (Jenni Baird), a waitress from the local diner, sets out to save mankind.
Would it be eligible for the MST3K?
And
Cory Doctorow's advices how to avoid distraction when writing. Just as good for preparing for the PhD presentation. I should heed them now.
PS. Just a week left. I'm officially starting to panic.
