I have a short story coming out in an anthology called Transcendent, and they just released the cover art, which I think is pretty cool. The anthology was originally going to be called Dreams, Nightmares, Visions and Hallucinations, which I…

Tower Bridge is Falling Down…
Okay, it’s not actually falling down, but since it is made of Lego, it is somewhat more fragile than the original. Anna got this set for me for my birthday, and I spent somewhere between eight and ten hours putting…

Octopus Prime
Let’s transform and go get some sushi… Yes, there seem to be almost no limits that we won’t go to for a bad pun. This was my costume at Mile-Hi Con 49 last weekend, where it won a judge’s choice…
