I can’t talk about this using my real persona because everyone will stop doing business with me. So — a business rant today!

Having pissed off a bunch of folks with my last article about Amazon’s alarmingly autocratic actions, I feel the need to apologize. I do acknowledge that a small percentage of Kindle owners can, in fact, read at least at the third grade level. Since I’m inspired to say the above, I’ll go ahead and make […]
I suppose we’ve all been following this Kindle bullshit, right? If not, you can go read this article, and this one has a roundup of what the media’s been reporting. You owe it to yourself – assuming you possess at least some level of intelligence – to study this development. It’s important. It can hurt […]
I should begin by saying that I’m a Luddite. I hate ebooks, and I think everybody who owns an ebook reader is in league with the devil and should be exterminated.

So I’m totally addicted to Under the Dome: A Novel. People look at it and think, holy shit, it’s a doorstopper. But I will now demonstrate how Stephen King makes his books 1000+ pages long. Ready? Okay.
We’ve got Quiet Earth giving us more coverage than we ever wanted on the genre for film and TV, but I think we’re lacking a site that keeps us updated about apocalypse stories in print. There are lists out there, untouched for years, and the Wikipedia list, which is pretty good. But no sort of […]
