Genre can be a tricky thing. Take author Caitlin Starling, who, in this interview about her novel "Last To Leave The Room," says it has some sci-fi flavor but, "it's straight up horror to me."

While superhero novels are often inspired by the usual suspects (Superman, Spider-Man), in my new interview with author Ty Drago, he says the hero of his superheroic science fiction novel "Checkmate" is inspired by one who predates them all.

@TrueBloodNet Yes, someone else said he reposts lies and calls them out. But other people have made similar complaints and I don't know why they still follow the people they do. My life is way less stressful without that bullshit.
So, this illustrates a confusion I have about #Twitter and social media in general, and how I use it. Why is he following so many liars? And why is he still following them when he knows they're liars? I don't follow people if they're full of shit, and if I realize they're full of shit, I stop following them (and have). I don't get it.
