Such a cool animation
Maybe this is my new goal: to someday have the scenes of my life turn into each other in this cool a way:
Mongrels in the Classroom
Part I don’t know what. But I talk to a lot of classes about this yellow book. Thanks, Jerome: https://twitter.com/Bearnabas/status/1037133787921113088
Scary sounds
Was listening to a podcast interview . . . I think maybe it was Mick Garris’s? Maybe? Anyway, the guy being interviewed said that when he was a kid and knew a scary part of the movie was coming, he wouldn’t cover his eyes, he’d cover his ears. Makes a lot of sense, especially hearing
Four years, man
Doesn’t feel like it. To me these stories are stil churning in my head. Thanks, Richard.Â
The End of the Affair: MoviePass
It was fun while it lasted, right? I remember being somewhere with Josh Viola, and he asked had I heard about this cool “MoviePass” service. I hadn’t, but twenty minutes later I had the app, and the card was en route. It was a nice few months. In California, staying at a hotel across from

Confession time
I spent some years in the  . . .  90s, I think it was, confusing Rick Baker and Robert Bakker. One’s werewolves, one’s dinosaurs, but both are associated with movies. Anyway, some very cool old stuff, here:
Horror Comics Wrap-Up
Or, intro? Anyway, I had 750 words to sum up horror comics for NPR, since they kept coming up when we were curating the 100 Horror list. Was cool, trying to make everything fit.Â
Goats and Crabs
Hey, it’s that runaway goat I was writing about it in “Exodus” (check #5 there, say), lo those many years ago: https://nypost.com/2018/08/09/rogue-goat-may-have-helped-dozens-of-farm-animals-escape/
Scary Bike Rides
Of all the stories I’ve done, this is the one that still gets to me on the trail. Really? Other day I’m riding this corridor in Boulder with a tall fence on one side, a concrete wall on the other, so: no exits. It goes about . . . three quarters of a mile. I’m
Nuh Uh
Watching Jeepers Creepers last night, had to capture this (will embed the tweet so as to let Twitter host the file): I can watch these kinds of cerebral interchanges for hours and hours. I never can quite win them, though pic.twitter.com/dEFPvJsh1t — Stephen Graham Jones (@SGJ72) August 8, 2018
Some Gospel Here
When @Benjamin_Percy is constructing a comic story, he approaches it like a math problem. pic.twitter.com/eR2Ac717x2 — SYFY (@SYFY) August 6, 2018 this ‘breakdancing in a straitjacket’ he’s talking about via Terrance Hayes is a much better way of saying what I’m always trying to say—also with dancing: give me a whole warehouse to do my
Best of the Best
Sounds like a boxing movie. Anyway, cool starred Publisher’s Weekly review—nice words for “Chapter Six.” Click there, or, I mean, it’s so short, here:

The Ultimate Showdown of . . . Horror
Seriously, this is one of the top best most amazing coolest wow slasher things I’ve seen. Can’t get enough:
Pure Prairie Dog
Well, my story from Gamut, “The God of Low Things,” reprinted in this month’s The Dark. August 2018
