I often post reviews of stuff I watch on Facebook, and I thought I might share them here as well. Here’s my take on Echo on Disney. Beware: Spoilers below! The Good: — The lead, Alaqua Cox, is a tremendously intriguing actor – I’ve thought so since s...

Daros ended up coming in 15th out of 377 entries in the first ever Self-Published Science Fiction Competition run by Hugh Howey, missing the finals by a bit. That’s disappointing, but it was a really great ride, and I very much enjoyed getting to kno...
I saw this prompt on Twitter, and thought I’d take a stab. I hate the Russian invasion and love Gilbert and Sullivan, so it seemed worth a shot. Despite my orders to advance my forces are unraveling.They have no food or bandages and… Oops! Incoming J...
