I used to screencap these into the monthly best-of posts, but when I started doing those as galleries they ended up getting shrunk to illegibility, so I lazily & loserly gave up. So, this is me trying to reverse that: the best articles I’ve been reading, that I can A) still clearly rememberer, and B) actually FIND. So, some of them self-embed, don’t ask me how, and the others I’ll just put the title/link up in a list, below. That doesn’t mean they…
Way back. First two seem to pretty much be ‘fun with effects’/let’s see what we can do. But Frankenstein, man, there’s a lot of horror seeds getting planted there, that are still blooming all these years later.

Not sure why, but I’ve been stashing these as I stumble onto them. Will add more as I find them, probably. They’re kind of cool. The Darnielle is more like the actual iridescent tape from a VHS, but still, it’s kind of on the same shelf:
And, guess this is kind of the same? Taking a streaming show, ripping it from DVD, transferring to VHS, then rigging together a make-do cover for it? Anyway, cool. Found it here (if there’s a better way to link Imgur, which I …
Hey, Tattered Cover (Colfax) has a green room now! So cool.

This is us after it was all over, posing by the chalkboard upstairs, already bundled up for wherever it was we were go…
Neither actually new, but both getting to me yesterday: Sovereign Traces has a piece of Mongrels in it, courtesy of the amazing Delicia Williams (artist), and Fortune Smiles I already read, of course, and really dug—one of the stand-out collections from recent, or any, years—but got to hang with Adam some last night, thanks to Lighthouse in Denver, so came away with an even cooler copy. And, speaking of last night: great event, great reception, wonderful people to talk t…
Wish I could do “the Unboxing” in some scare-font, or have the letters all kind of shudder.
Was very cool doing this interview/podcast with them. Nice working with a team, in a studio, and Ken McConnellogue is a superb host. You can listen to it here, or, looks like, just wherever you get your podcastery:
is the author of 22 or 23 books, ~300 stories, and all this stuff here. He lives in Boulder, Colorado, and has a few broken-down old trucks, one PhD, and way too many boots
