So far this is kind of creepy ... but in a somewhat interesting / not sure where it's going kind of way.

While fantasy authors often cite fantasy stories as influences, in my new interview with author T.L. Huchu about his urban fantasy novel "The Legacy Of Arniston House," he also cites a video game-inspired TV show of the bloody battle persuasion.

If the first story — which was unintentionally relevant to recent events — is any indication, this is going to be disturbing in the best way possible.

Reads like these were meant to be read aloud. Which is good; I like reading like that.

Originally written as an online comic, Purpah's "Suitor Armor" is jumping to print with a collection called "Suitor Armor, Volume 1." In this exclusive interview, the author and artist talks about this "fantasy with romance" tale.

Very interesting, though I wish more had been as -ish as Elise Stephens' excellent "Remembrance In Cerulean."

@corlin If you go to my website, paulsemel.com, and do a search for the author, it'll bring up interviews she and I did about the first and third books.

@corlin It's not. It's not warm and fuzzy, either. But there is a little lovin', and people trying to do the right thing.

People used to avoid places where someone was murdered. Now they want to visit as tourists. It's this idea that sets the stage for Shelley Burr's new noir murder mystery thriller novel "Murder Town," which she talks about in this exclusive interview.

Super good. As gripping as the first book of this epic trilogy. Now to see how this story ends.

While space may have been the "final frontier" on "Star Trek," they rarely showed people colonizing other worlds. But that's what you get in the sci-fi space Western short story anthology "Last Train Outta Kepler-283c," as editor David Boop explains in this exclusive interview.

Over the last 15 years, Seb Doubinsky has written 10 novels in his dystopian noir and more series, the "City-States Cycle." But in our new interview about the 10th, the sci-fi and espionage-infused "The Sum Of All Things," he explains how it was going to be the end, but the story had different ideas.

After 9 years, my time reviewing games for Common Sense Media has come to an end.

More accurately, their time reviewing games has come to an end.

So, if you know anyone looking for a veteran video game reviewer, please send them my way.

Thank you for your support.

We all have dreams. Some more realistic than others. Take Pee Wee, the main character in author Tracy Cross' historical fiction horror novella "A Gathering Of Weapons." As Cross explains in this exclusive interview, Pee Wee's dream is to be "…the greatest conjure woman ever." No biggie.
