Read MoreBandcamp Friday tomorrow! Here are some recommendations…
If you like it weird and/or loud, this might be up your alley. Although there is some stuff for people who like actual music in their music. I’m done my best to tamp down my weirdest impulses. Sargent House https://sargenthouse.bandcamp.com/?from=search&search_item_id=3074265780&search_item_type=b&search_match_part=%3F&search_page_id=2152764739&search_page_no=0&search_rank=1&logged_in_menubar=true Am I recommending an entire label? Well, yeah. They’re been putting out some great stuff lately – the new Russian Circles album, the new Brutus, a new Botch track, The Armed’s whole deal, and other people such as Chelsea Wolfe and Helms Alee. It’s hard to go too wrong with their line up. Like it aggressive? Just...
Read MoreFlash fic – Blood and Mud
I guess there’s too many heat waves and droughts on my mind. Content warning – mentions of murder, drugs, blood. And based on one of the pictures from here –https://terribleminds.com/ramble/2022/08/12/flash-fiction-challenge-the-revenge-of-the-insane-art-robot/ (It’s the last picture, if you didn’t guess.) Blood and Mud The flower was first reported growing in a weedy lot off the I-5 corridor outside of Seattle. Bright red like a poppy, but slightly different in both shape and size of petals. The body amongst them was noticed second. From his stringy hair and grungy wardrobe, he was initially assumed to be an indigent who picked a pretty place to O.D., until someone noticed how dry his skin seemed, and how light the body...

Read MoreAn all Infected cast one card tarot read
I was informed today was World Tarot Day, which I didn’t know was a thing, even though I have and can read Tarot cards. In my latest book, Infected: Fallout, someone does one card quick reading for some members of the cast. Rather than simply name cards for them, I pulled one for each character. Not only did it work narratively, but it was a lot of fun. So today, the whole cast gets a one card reading. Dylan – Knight of Swords Knight of Swords Traditionally this card either means a dashing young man, or the coming or going of misfortune. But all I see is Roan here. Roan really is his defender, and personal One Punch Man. And also? Dylan’s career has been on an upswing lately, so it can mean that as well. Good for him....
Read MoreFor Pride month, enjoy a snippet of my WIP
Yes, it’s a new Infected story, and this snippet is unedit, so you get what you get. He left the car with Dyl, as the hotel wasn’t too far from Capitol Hill, where he and Dropkick had scheduled to meet. On the walk over, he was a little amazed – and saddened – by how much gentrification had carved away at the gayborhood. There were still bits of it here and there, and certainly there were still rainbow flags hanging from apartments, but a lot of the bars and other hang outs were gone. How could they have closed the Eagle? It was as old as he was. Damn, another thing he outlived. But there were tiny bits of weird Seattle left, such as the place Dropkick wanted to meet. Amy’s Free Range Tea Shop sounded exactly like twee bullshit...
