CE (Catie) Murphy is a terrific writer. I've enjoyed every book of hers I've ever read. If this book sounds at all interesting to you, do yourself a favor and buy it!

I have...more than one of those.

The staggeringly fabulous cover for CE Murphy's upcoming BONE & BLOOD, a retelling of "Snow White, Rose Red" features two women standing back to back: one is garbed all in blood red, with dark red hair and a black mask; the other wears flowing white, with wheat-pale hair and a glittering mask. Cover art & design by Ravven.

BONE & BLOOD is out TOMORROW! Just a few more hours to preorder it! It's my first proper CE Murphy book out in ages and it's a retelling of the fairy tale "Snow White, Rose Red"! You probably really want it! :D #booksky #preorders

THANK YOU!

Sorry to be that guy, but surely you mean Chuck Patton?

Strongly encourage all academics, novelists, reporters, bloggers, whatever to just email this account and state that you want to opt out of this idiocy.

Overload them with emails and make them regret they ever tried this shit.

We are getting Mac back today, and the news is good overall with his results but the grand total for his vet visit is $6330.

And, honestly, don't these guys have enough money to just buy these shoes in their size if they want to suck up?!

But they also say Americans just need to have more kids (and "Don't have kids if you can't afford them.")

Cue Pulp's "Common People"!

Whenever one of these jerks says something like this, I feel like they should have to live in poverty for a month. Maybe six. Because they're the ones who don't live in the real world.

I'll be excited about the King Conan film when I see something indicating it's a strong adaptation of an actual Robert E. Howard story.

Because that's been the flaw in every Conan film (yes, even the first Arnold flick): They grab bits and pieces from Howard & then add a bunch of unnecessary stuff.

So it's got the wings that fold up, like the planes in Black Sheep Squadron?

Donations calls and situations reports for writeups-org 3 times a year, there's a call for donations and a full situation report on writeups.org. These are all archived here, including the latest.

Our thrice-a-year "state of the website" and call for donation soapbox address is up.

Even if you don't have any moolah to donate, you can still read it for a few thoughts about running a primarily-text-based indie website in this day and age.

(Only a few, to accommodate for people reading less).

Getting more and more leery of people who are wiling to overlook red flags because the person *says* they're a Democrat or a Progressive. Yeah, Manchin said he was a Democrat. Sinema said she was a Democrat. Fetterman said he was a Democrat. (In his case, the strokes might account for his shift.)

It's the #Pensacon episode of @trekculture.bsky.social!! You may see a familiar face or two.

Pleasure chatting with @trekkiebrie.bsky.social about what Star Trek means to me!

Sorry.

I have similar issues (no pun intended) when I'm out of my DCAU books or my Star Trek book.

I do find myself wishing that the Harley Quinn & the Gotham Girls TPB was still in print. It brought people to the table.

If I can't cook it with a light bulb, is it even cooking?

Also, why is this LED bulb taking FOREVER to cook my little cake??

Waaaaaay back, there was a show called The Sword of Justice about a guy framed for embezzlement and sent to prison. He used his time there to study all manner of criminality. When he got out, he used his new skills to uncover crime and corruption among the rich and powerful.

The John Larroquette Show, particularly the first season, is some of my all-time favorite TV.

It's definitely A.

Wasn't she everyone's?

(I mean, in my case, she still is.)

Initially misread that as "macaque" and thought you were looking for a boutique animal cloner.

Sometimes my brain gets ahead of me.

I got to meet and chat with her a couple times at comic cons. Not only was she TREMENDOUSLY talented, she was also charming and funny. An absolute delight. I'm glad I got to tell her that I loved her work.

That may be the first time anyone has accused me of being subtle! 😉

It's always "two weeks" with these clowns. Also, the ones who talk tough either never served or never saw combat.

I haven't either, but I do my best not to sound like an '80s action movie villain.
