Man, I don't think I've ever been as blind-sided by Halloween's arrival as this year!
Between the crazy 80degree(F) weather early in the month, and now a power-crippling snow-storm, it never even felt like autumn. Most towns have also rescheduled trick'or'treat and other holiday events for later days, too.
Busy month personally, too.
My kids did attend a couple of events in costume, at least.
I didn't even get around to reading a horror short story or picking a horror movie. I don't think I'll be awake enough tonight to watch anything. I spent the first half of last night tending the fire in the wood stove until power came back.
Happy Halloween!

Quiet October
Well, it's been a quiet month on my blog, anyway. Lots of busy stuff at home and work. Nothing I really felt like blogging about.
One thing I came across yesterday was a free teaser comic for Avenging Spider-man, which despite its name, is more about Spider-man team-ups than Spider-man p.o.v. Avengers stories. That could be interesting. Sounds a little like a Spider-man version of Batman: the Brave & the Bold. (serious take, though, not like the humorous t.v. show.)
I haven't really bought much Marvel, been hanging tight with DC. But, as a kid I always liked Spider-man. This title is supposed to focus more on the hero than the alter-ego stories of Peter Parker.
I might give it a try, it starts its run in November.

Strange Worlds!
It's available now!
Assembled by artist/editor Jeff Doten, this anthology was a collaborative effort. Jeff contacted the writers, each of whom chose a color illustration as the inspiration to craft a sword-&-planet tale. Jeff then added some black & white interiors based on the resulting stories.
It's been a long time since a sword-&-planet anthology of new tales has been published.
I am very excited to be a part of this work, and I share the table of contents with some talented writers!
I can't wait to read the other stories! (oh, mine is titled, "Pearls of Uraton")
