Hello, again. Sorry for the unexpected absence last week, but I’m back now for all the usual analysis, snark, and shameless self-promotion.

As far as self-promotion goes: “The Price You Pay is Red” — the second story in my Spindle City series — will be available to download/read next Tuesday, 11/24. Today, though, is the big cover reveal. If you’d like to see it and/or read more about the story, click here. (It is, if I may quote The Book Smugglers Twitter Feed: “The  Empire Strikes Back of our little series, AKA, Where Everything Turns To Shit.”)

As far as analysis/snark goes: I’ll have a movie review up tomorrow. More analysis than snark, on that one, but I’m sure I’ll manage to poke fun at something somewhere, as is my wont.

It’s been a hard few days for the world. Here’s hoping for a more peaceful, more tolerant week ahead.
