"[Thorne] expertly establishes parallels between the psychiatric symptoms of a boy experiencing the onset of...OCD...and Tab's helplessness against spiritual forces beyond his family's comprehension." —The Eric Hoffer Award

My #HorrorNovel TAB'S TERRIBLE THIRD EYE is on sale now.
I won't lie. I'm pissed about how smart phones/social media have disabled my attention span. Example: I can easily pay attention to a movie I've seen a dozen times. New ones? Unless I'm in a theater with my phone off, I have a LOT of trouble staying tuned in.

I miss being able to pay attention.

Scammers seem unaware of the scandal in which the man they're impersonating is embroiled.

Also, what kind of hugely famous name would, unsolicited, email an unknown to ask a banal and replete with redundancy podcast interview question like, "What first compelled you to begin writing?"

On my mind today: most folks set boundaries to protect themselves, but some confuse boundaries with rules. Boundaries protect your space. Rules make demands on others' space.

I used to try to keep up with other people's rules so I didn't accidentally upset them. Just made myself sick.

The mass market paperback, light in the hand and on the wallet, once filled airport bookstores and supermarket media aisles. You may never buy a new one again.

Remember how Fox/Republicans accuse anyone who disagrees with them of "hating America?" Occurs to me that anyone in power who literally hates America would comport themselves and their agents in such a fashion as to subvert parts of this country's founding document when they deem it inconvenient.

I grew up on music and television (and Music Television). Every time I hear the word "peptide," I'm reminded of that STAR TREK: TNG episode where Data experiences dreams for the first time and Deanna Troi ends up turning into a cellular peptide cake.

267 days to go.

I can't tell you who to vote for.

However, if you want accountability in the Epstein scandal, you should probably vote against Republicans as well as against milquetoast Democrats who don't pay enough attention to current events to understand when a vote is a referendum.

One horror movie trope I've grown to dislike is the mealtime exposition scene. Characters sit at a meal together to discuss plans or piece clues together.

Finished my conversion from Spotify to Deezer and cancelled my Spotify account. Also completely disconnected from/unreliant on Amazon now.

Google is next. Moving all that stuff to Proton.

Adobe, Microsoft, and Apple alternatives will follow.
