Debt Free–Kind ofAt the end of the first year of Son and Foe, I wound up putting a few items and unexpected expenses on my AmEx card to hold me over until my next paycheck; the habit predictably snowballed to include items that I should have done without. Today, I finally managed to get rid of it [...]
A little while since I’ve shamelessly plugged myself. (Actually, does that sound kind of wrong or is it just me?) Erm, anyway … my third published story is up at Reflection’s Edge. If you like your fantasy dark and severely warped then I can recommend it with no small amount of bias. And hey, the [...]

Yellow MamaYellow Mama is probably the best new webzine this year to be named after an electric chair, and as such, I thought it only right to give it a quick plug. I in no way mention this because they published my story, “Night Nurse” … but if you should happen to drop by, it’s story [...]

Last new story up at Son and FoeThe last new story of Issue 4 is up at Son and Foe, and it’s a blast: “Pulp Fiction Presents: The Godfather,” by Pete Butler. Go give it a read.
Apologies for the shameless plugging, but my first published story is currently being podcast by Chaos Theory: Tales Askew.

So, here’s the deal: you follow this link [...]
…Lovecraft, that is. It just goes to show, it’s occassionally worth following those random Google ads that intersperse this blog. One led me to a site that’s posting all of the mighty Mr Lovecraft’s out-of-copyright fiction in a nice and easy to read format. If anyone hasn’t read these, I strongly recommend taking a look [...]
From Wikipedia: “Orbitz was widely disliked during its short stay on the market. Drinking a beverage containing floating particles with the consistency of soggy bread proved to be significantly less popular than the company anticipated.” If only the floating particles had possessed the consistency of human eyes, Orbitz would have been in business. More failed [...]
Busy and tired at the moment, and it’s not quite ready for me to take the wraps off yet… but you’ll like it when I do. Honest. More later.
Part One (of Two) of “Generations” by Lavie Tidhar is now up at Son and Foe. Click it, read it, love it. It’s a weird feeling to see that the contents of issue 4 are almost all unlocked. Running Son and Foe has been quite the experience, and no matter what else, I can’t deny [...]

A Picture a DayGood old Olde English. I can always count on them for a good laugh. Usually, anyway–there are a few stinkers. But I won’t link to them. That wouldn’t be nice. One Picture Every Day is one of the good ones. Enjoy.
