The week (Getting old edition): Exchanged my new bifocals to replace the frames because I broke my nose is crooked with a bump where glasses sit and it was problematic with utilization of said lower focal. Got a super steroid blast in Carpal Tunnel wrist to stave off surgery til after the new year.

This was a lovely present on a tiresome day! stevestredauthor.ca/2023/11/12/b...

This Sunday. I shall make a rare public appearance and will actually be signing/selling books at this fun event. If you're in the area, check it out! Lots of great authors in attendance and books to peruse and a great location with killer food! Look at this lineup, plus there are many more!

"SNARL, by author John Boden is one of those unique, quick and riveting reads that linger in the mind of the reader long after the book has been finished and set back upon the shelf." -Midwest Book Review I feel a little bit classier today. Only a little bit though.

Gloomy, rainy Saturday. Said I was going to go down to the office and write and here I sit listening to Roy Acuff instead.

SNARL is available through nearly any reputable bookseller, maybe even some less than reputable ones. @ericlarocca.bsky.social is not only a fantastic author (Seriously, EVERYTHING THE DARKNESS EATS is brilliant!) but an all-around good egg who would never lie to you. :)

This book is amazing. Dark Tower+Shakes The Clown+Your Favorite Western= The Escapement. Lap it up, people!

Last night, My oldest boy and I, along with a pair of dear friends saw the amazing rock band, KIX on their final show. Ever. Health issues and age cited as the reason, "We wanna go out on our own terms, our own time." They delivered 2 hours+ of a good time. Bittersweet, indeed.

My oldest boy got us tickets to see PETER GABRIEL tonight and I have been excited about it for months. One of my very favorite artists...I have avoided peeks at the setlist and live videos and the only spoiler I have is its damn near 3 hour show. I'll most likely cry.

Ka-boom!

Spiffy new review of SNARL... thenerdcantina.com/snarl-by-joh...

A newish platform means I can troop out these favorite hot takes of mine: -CHICAGO is a progressive rock band. -BURNT OFFERINGS is a vampire novel, as is CHRISTINE. -Robert Corimer's THE CHOCOLATE WAR is a horror story, especially if you are a teenager when reading it. 🙂

Just using my debut post to say Howdy! And to thank @brackenmacleod.bsky.social for being great. Read Books, Listen to music and laugh as often as you can.
