If you think Tylenol is bad for children’s health what until you see what guns do.

Know what creates empathy? Books. Reading about people unlike ourselves and experiences we'll never have. Which is why some people want to remove those books and discourage reading. Kids and adults should read widely. Most spend their spare time online, which is where indoctrination often begins.

INDIANA JONES AND THE JUMBLED CAPTCHA CHALLENGE

I watched V FOR VENDETTA (2005) last night. I remember seeing it in theaters and thinking “good story, unrealistic” 20 years later…it’s no longer unrealistic. It’s a really uncomfortable watch.

I tend to stay away from carnivals and circuses thanks to @stephenking.bsky.social. I read IT as a teen and now I’m re-reading to exercise the demons. I plan on floating right through this one.

Any thoughts on who we should send to investigate?

Just finished reading Boy’s Life by @robertmccammon.com. What an absolute masterpiece! Small town southern coming of age story with a dash of horror and mystery, and some really heavy themes through the eyes of a 12 year old. Beautifully written!

If you’re wondering if you need to watch the other Mission Impossible films before seeing Mission Impossible: Final Reckoning, the answer NO. The movie is so packed with exposition it makes Christopher Nolan blush.

…and that has made all the difference

Huge news! I’m over-the-top thrilled to announce that I’m represented by @jjbker.bsky.social of @belllomaxmoreton.bsky.social! John is the perfect partner to bring my nostalgia-fueled heist novel to a bookshelf near you! #writingcommunity, Let me summarize my feeling about this:

On Christmas Eve, 1988, a group of German criminals took hostages at an L.A. office party. The making of story behind DIE HARD is bigger than the Nakatomi… 1/43

TREMORS was released 35 years ago today. A cult classic that marks back to the monster -based B-Movies of the 1950s, the behind the scenes story is more out there than the Graboids… 1/39

This might be the answer we’ve all been looking for…

One of my favorite quotes to end a movie. THE FUGITIVE (1993) Richard Kimble: “I thought you didn’t care.” Deputy Gerard: “I don’t. Don’t tell anybody, okay?”
