Good Things
If you haven’t seen by now, I’ve published Undead Oz. The blurb not enough to tell you about it? Don’t be looking for Judy Garland. Dawthy Pale is a wide-eyed ingenue of a different stripe. Elmira Goolch kills poor little Utoh, and Dawthy travels to Oz, the Land Down Under, or aka The Land of…

On Writing
I thought of this because I just finished one of the worst books I’ve ever read. I won’t tell you the name. What’s sad is that the story had such great potential. Spelling errors? A ‘ewe longbow’; I assume ‘yew’. A ‘heard of’ some kind of animal. ‘He’ for ‘the’ (this one was pretty frequent). …

O The Possibilities
Working so hard on Undead Oz, I’m hoping this book breaks through in a way Break never did (although that falls on me and my lack of time to promote it). I have had ideas so far for puppets (and I’ll work on those this weekend), and an Ozopoly game. Probably can’t do much with…

And again!
Print version is now available. Not the photo I wanted to use; the resolution was too…how shall I say? Piss-poor? But still a lovely shot. Just don’t ask me which cemetery it’s from. Again, not to be confused with the Undead Land of Oz. Posers!

Short, and sweet o sweet
Just a blurb to let the world know: Undead Oz is live on the Kindle Store, for $1.99. There is another book called The Undead World of Oz, don’t confuse them. Print copies will probably happen, proofs are on order. REJOICE!

A bigger piece of OZ
They had reached one border of the cemetery. About forty yards beyond the last of the graves, the woods began, and sitting in the growing shadows under the first line of trees was an old wagon. Chunk had stopped in front of it, and was now looking back at them. “It’s like one of those…

Check Out Oakwood
Almost spring, and almost time to do some cemetery runs, and some photography. I recommend Oakwood in Troy. Oddly enough, I’ve never been in the cemetery across the street. But Oakwood has some wonderful monuments and photo opportunities (I’m partial to black and white). There is a statue, supposedly of Jesus, but it looks like…

Things To Take Off TV
1. Any commercial featuring Flo, Billy Fucillo, or that stupid gecko. The commercial with the cow speaking at the wedding. I have no idea why that cow annoys the living shit out of me. She actually sounds like a complete bimbo. 2. Any commercial pushing drugs. Tell my doctor of any conditions I have? Shouldn’t…

Review: The Rest Falls Away
After all the paranormal erotica and sexy vampire stuff that has glutted the market, this was a refreshing, old-fashioned vampire hunter tale, and I welcomed it. Well-written, with a coherent mythology, a clearly delineated villain, and the backdrop setting of Victorian London to make the heroine’s life a little more difficult. The characters are not…

Review: Cobweb Bride
Very pretty prose, author paints some wonderful pictures with her words. I would have rated it higher but I felt it ultimately went on too long (although its not really a long book). Still, the imagery is well worth it, and I will probably continue the series to see where it goes, as Death going…
