Don’t run away! I know you want to. I know as soon as you see the word “Kickstarter,” nasty visions of wannabe artists and writers float through your mind, all with their hands extended begging for your hard-earned cash. Push those visages away momentarily. Instead, picture rewards beyond measure: hand-painted sculptures, exclusive maps, things that […]

Ever since I started sculpting, I have wanted to create a throwback to the mail-in kids’ club packages I remember from the 80s and 90s. Those, now nostalgic, sign-ups we’d send in–sometimes with box tops, sometimes with Kool-Aid stamps or product labels–which resulted in a surprise package at our doorsteps. These boxes would contain all

We’re well into the last week of the year, and I for one couldn’t be happier. Sure, we can get into the whole one-year-older frame of mind, but what good will it do? Instead, I like to embrace this holiday home stretch. I bask in the warmth of vacation days, swim in the pool of

Happy October! Oh yes. After nearly two months of anticipation, the big month has finally arrived. We’ve celebrated every celebrate-able moment of the season: the harvest moon, the autumnal equinox, the first day we spotted a leaf changing color, the first day we spotted Halloween items in a store… Of course we have to celebrate

I’m sitting at my computer desk at 12:01 on a Wednesday afternoon, typing what you now read, while I listen to the heavy drops of rain fall outside my window. It’s dark in this room–because it’s grey and overcast outside. It’s not too hot here, but the humidity makes everything–even inside–feel damp. I don’t mind

It looks like we’ve made it to the end of the first week of The Blog Tour to the End of the World! For today’s mind-treat, I have a tantalizing guest post about hypnotism on Lee Widener’s NeverendingWonder. You’ll also find the third game piece to the big contest. In case you’ve missed any of the tour stops, you can navigate to
Okay, so technically it’s not day two, it’s tour-stop two. But I’ve already committed to the “day” titling, so we’ll all just pretend that it’s day two. We are all dedicated fantasists anyway, so it should be a stretch. Today, to help swell your brains with nonsense, I am interviewed by Gongleby the Gnome and Blood Tongue, on Brent Michael Kelley’s
Welcome to the kick off of the Blog Tour to the End of the World! I’m posting this a little early because I’ve been hard at work all day putting this together, and frankly, I couldn’t wait to get started! Below you’ll find an exclusive video introduction to the blog tour, which will explain how to enter
