Book Trailer I went to college to become a dentist. Yeah. I wasn’t cut out for the sciences, and in a desperate attempt to graduate on time, I split my major with “Digital Media,” which, in the year 2000, was as shiny and new as an autumn apple. I learned the basics of web design,
Halloween VHS Mix Tapes I love when two or more of my interests intersect. The result is akin to Spinal Tap turning it up to eleven. The combination just makes everything better.

Welcome September September is like a particularly good collection of trailers before the main feature begins. Last week I wrote about the many “hints of autumn” that have emerged through August, and those occurrences are only growing. It’s like how the Spirit Halloween Flagship store opened on August 22nd, but from that point forward, through
Hints of Autumn I know it’s not autumn yet, and that the first official day of my favorite season isn’t until Tuesday, September 22 (at 8:05 p.m. EDT if you track such things). Still, it’s hard to argue that for many of us, things are already beginning to feel autumnal. If not the weather, other
Rainy Days As I write this, the sky has opened up and released a torrent of rain on the dim world. That has been the general atmosphere this summer. Days of rain and gloom. Don’t misunderstand me; I love this weather. If it has to be summer, then give me summer storms. It’s the closest thing to
