Writing advice is everywhere. I know. I have taught writing for 24 years. I can say with complete conviction there is no better advice than Rob Bignell, Editor. Salient, specific, helpful, and inspiring. SO GOOD! And brilliantly written. Follow him if you are not. #writingcommuity

WOW! Former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe called Donald Trump and MAGA a "Nazi movement" and was arrested and carried out of a city council meeting by police.

I just backed COSTS OF LIVING: A New Horror Anthology on Kickstarter. Steve Capone jr. is an outstanding editor and publisher! Chip in a buck or $2 if you can. I have a new one in this book! kickstarter.com/projects/capon…

I am writing a banger of a #RayBradbury essay today. I can’t wait for you all to read it! Simultaneously, I’m creating two new short stories in the vein of DARK BLACK that are a blast! Today is a day of creative wonderment. I am so grateful. #Amwriting #writingcommunity

not to defend the robber barons but Andrew Carnegie, the richest man of his era, gave away 90 percent of his wealth and funded the building of 2,811 libraries, and I’m afraid the current crop of oligarchs isn’t sending their best.

.Sam Weller on Ray Bradbury’s underappreciated classic: “The Martian Chronicles is a serious book about serious human themes. It is science fiction as a reflection of modernity.” lithub.com/75-years-ago-t…

Sure, it’s #StarWarsDay and all, but 75 years ago, May 4th, 1950, #RayBradbury published his classic, THE MARTIAN CHRONICLES. Here is my Literary Hub essay on the book’s history. #sciencefiction #fantasy #StarWars

Alpha Flight #1 came out OTD in 1983. Unlike today where we get several #1’s a week, it was rare to see one back in the Bronze Age. My friend and I were so excited to get a brand new #1 of anything! And this was John Byrne’s Alpha Flight… that debuted in the Xmen! Pure gold!
