A rainy day here in Providence. It's nice.

Kyle and I have been hammering out specifics on the still photography/book trailer project for The Drowning Girl, and it's a stressful affair. Well, if you're me. I can make stress out of thin air. Anyway, the Kickstarter is going extraordinarily well (166%)...and...Michael Zulli has just come on board to

Zulli has become our Saltonstall, which is beyond amazing.

That is extremely cool.

Still has me a little breathless.

Browsing bookstore shelves

[melissaleeg83]

I find the section that I want and if I don't have one in mind then I look through it. I start out with titles, the cover design, and last is what the book is about. If it is fiction, I might get it. But I would never venture into the section of science fiction because I read too many bad alien robot stories as a kid, and hold Scientology against it. So I am in the bad consumer catagory.

It's never too late to change.

Ellison Horrorland

[jessamyg]

I totally agree that Harlan would be hung with the horror writer tag, when he should just be thought of as a writer, and very probably one of the best short story writers that have ever existed. Well, the world will be a much blander place without Mr. Ellison and I find it wonderful just to know that he exists, that he brings us dreams and nightmares, and that he roams the world and rains down his displeasure on the unworthy and the hypocritical. Harlan is a jealous god, critics beware.

He is my role model....

Reductionism.

Or as Gene Wolfe said, "All novels are fantasies. Some are more honest about it."

Yes! Exactly. And I love the icon!
