Lucifer Trailer
In an ironic twist, this trailer just blipped across my radar because the group One Million Moms is petitioning Fox to drop it. Lucifer is based on a fairly popular comic series, and I’m sure–true to Fox form–they’ll ruin this show, but I got to admit, I really want to see this. Partly because the…
Read MoreThree Most Awesome Books of May
This was an interesting month of reading for me. There was the usual mixing pot of novels mixed with graphic novels (Y-The Last Man Volume 2, Saga Volume 1), some authors I’ve done more than a couple laps around the block with (Stross, Sanderson, Scalzi) and others whose words I’d never had the pleasure of visually molesting…
Read MoreAnthony Vicino – Parallel Interview
I bet you’re sitting around on this idle Monday just wondering what my favorite color is. No? How about my favorite fruit? Uh…still no? How about my thoughts on the current geopolitical climate? What? Really? You don’t care at all? Well, uh…good, ’cause you won’t get answers to any of those questions in the interview…
Read MoreWriting Workshop: Worldbuilding (Avoiding The Dump)
Worldbuilding is hard. In fact, it’s one of the most difficult aspects of good storytelling. So many pitfalls, so many opportunities to wander off into that scary word-forest only to come back out the other side covered in ticks, mud, and other smelly sorts of dreck. Then again, worldbuilding is one of the most rewarding…
Read MoreInterview with Anthony Vicino (One Lazy Robot)
Oh hey, look. S.C Flynn did an interview with yours truly. No, I totally didn’t sneak up on him and force him to do an interview with me. I barely twisted his arm at all. He could have said no. The gun was just for show, I was never gonna actually use it. Thanks S.C.…
Read MoreOne Day Only: Time Heist For Fleas!
I’ve been hitting the ginger ale pretty hard this morning. What I meant to say is: Time Heist for FREE!! Yeah, that makes more sense and seems a better deal for all parties involved. Seriously, I don’t want your fleas, but thanks for asking. Okay, so I screwed the pooch the other day when I…
Read MoreAnother Free Story? Madness!
*EDIT* Uh, due to some technical issues with Amazon, this post came out a bit premature. So, uh… Sins of the Father won’t be free until Wednesday. Whoops. Sorry to have lied so blatantly to you all.* So Sins of the Father came up to me yesterday and said, “Hey Anthony, what the heck? Why…
Read MoreParallel by Anthony Vicino
Thanks to Ryan from Red Eagle’s Legacy for his review of my novella, Parallel. Pop on over and check out what he has to say. If that sounds like something you’d want to read then do yourself a favor and go over to Amazon right now and get yourself a copy of Parallel while it’s…
Read More(Review) Emergence by Michael Patrick Hicks
Havent had a chance to read this yet, but I really dig book 1, Convergence. If you like cyberpunk action adventure than this might be a good one for you.
Read MoreScience Fiction Has Gotten A Little…Gay.
This is going to be another touchy subject so let’s all promise to be on our best behavior right out of the gate? If not, I’m prepared to throw down, if you know what I mean. *smacks a riding crop menacingly into the palm of his hand* Good. Now that we’re all reading the same…
