I did a complete rewrite of my sci-fi Christmas Carol-inspired story, A Rescue Request to Santa. The story follows Captain Alvas during her routine aboard the space station, when she finds a red sleigh with 8 reindeer attached. Enjoy my late Christmas gift!

I’ve been at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art the past three days recording lectures and interviews for the “Paul Reed: A Retrospective” exhibition. I even filmed an hour long in-depth one-on-one tour with the guest curator (and close friend to the artist), Dr. David Gariff.

Imagine this—you are parked in a field in Oklahoma on a cold October night, and you tune your car radio to listen to a lost broadcast from Friday, October 13, 1989.

A drive-in theater that opened for one night—and was never seen again.

Stop at Kendall's in Noble on the way for a chicken-fried steak (the most supernatural of all steaks) or grab a pizza from Jo's Famous Pizza in Purcell. Either way, go support women, STEM, and Dennis.
