I’m not really a musical kinda guy but I figured Singin’ in the Rain is such a classic I should finally watch it. The singing and dancing are vibrant and dynamic, and the famous ‘Singin’ in the Rain’ sequence might be the most joyful minutes of movie magic I’ve ever seen!

I just rewatched Heat and wow. It holds up great. Excellent crime thriller with an incredible cast that pulled me in from the first frame and never let go.

I was looking for some silly fun and Dodgeball did the trick. I forgot how much I like this movie. Ridiculous, had me laughing out loud and left with a smile on my face.

I showed Ninja One Flash Gordon and we had a blast. Yeah it’s cheesy and ridiculous but it’s such good fun. And that Queen soundtrack!

Adolescence is one of the most powerful, gripping mini-series I’ve ever seen, about a 13-year-boy in England accused on a brutal murder. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a tough watch, but each of the four episodes are done with a single shot, brilliantly choreographed and brilliantly acted.

The Life of Chuck is a magical, meditative, and unexpected movie. Well worth your time. Well done Mike Flanagan. Well done.

Did a great reading today at StokerCon2025 with fellow word slingers Hilary Wilson and Jamal Hodge. I read from my noir novella Red Ink from Murder in Montague Falls to a great response. 🙏🤘

Hopefully we get to a point where we don't need Pride Month, because it's Pride Life. 🙌

i'm superstitious enough to hold my breath for that first reader review on a new book, terrified of what someone is going to say, like, as long as i can get through that first review, i'll be okay, there will be plenty of negative reviews but please please just let that first one grant me confidence

Incredible review of BLUNT FORCE RISING, from my Angela Hardwicke #scifi #thriller series. "The light quasi-Cozy Mystery and potentially darker political metaphorical tones eventually give way to something darker, bloody, aggressive, animalistic, primal, and fatal." #horror tinyurl.com/2kdn37eh
