Hello, Friends. Popping in for a brief check-in with folks. Hope all are well. Still putting some distance between me and the social media bear trap. But I hope to be back on the regular.

Goodness! That’s me!

Just back from two days in Provincetown. What a tonic for the soul. Fantastic time. Bustling. Lively. Friendly.

From our new special issue on #foundfootage #horror @BostonWookiee's essay on H.P. Lovecraft, who 'leveraged fictional press “clippings” or “cuttings” as a form of “found footage"', especially in 'The Call of Cthulhu' #HPLovecraft horrorhomeroom.com/a-weird-bunch-…

Completely honored and tickled pink to join @horrorhomeroom latest special issue FOUND FOOTAGE HORROR. My contribution to the fantastic assembly- A WEIRD BUNCH OF CUTTINGS: NEWSPAPER CLIPPINGS AS LOVECRAFTIAN FOUND FOOTAGE- horrorhomeroom.com/special-issue-…

Had an amazing overnight visit to Saratoga Springs, NY. Great food, cocktails, coffee, and people-watching. But @NorthshireToga blew me away with their curated selection. I literally put back three books and held off even looking at four more titles I wanted.

So happy and honored to have a small part in this anthology. As always, my fellow contributors deliver the goods, and the @LunaPressGlobal team puts together another fantastic collection of independent academic writing.

Popping back in to shamelessly promote my ongoing series- “Worldbuilding John Wick. With the 1st film wrapped up, I'm diving in Chap. 2- Seeing the Unseen. #writing #film #worldbuilding #johnwick worldbuildingjohnwick.substack.com/p/in-plain-sig…

John Wick’s Continental Hotels are sacred “company town” sanctuaries amid the profane—my latest entry in the Worldbuilding Wick series. worldbuildingjohnwick.substack.com/p/lifeboat-in-…

Dashed to Widener ahead of graduation madness. Picked up a trio of books and overheard directions being given to two students. Assumed they were first years . Nope they graduate next week. 4 years at Harvard and they'd never been inside the library. What a modern age we live in.

Shamelessly pitching my ongoing Worldbuilding John Wick series. This week “Victor the Cleaner” joined Wick’s “Cleaners” as examples subtle worldbuilding. worldbuildingjohnwick.substack.com/p/bring-in-the… Monday I delve into The Continental as Company Town in microcosm.

We are delighted to reveal the cover to our seventh CfP! Click on the link to discover more! Featuring papers by @EugenBacon @BostonWookiee @SPBianchini @B002111 @CherylMorgan @MarkKirkbride and many more! Out 20th of June! #AcademiaLunare lunapresspublishing.com/post/cover-rev…

Just finished season one of “The Sandbaggers.” What. A. Show. Modern genre writers would do well to spend time watching this show. It is a masterclass in character and story.

Huzzah! What a fantastic collection of authors. I am so proud to contribute with my piece-“The Sacred and Profane: UFO Religions and Alien Messiahs in Clarke's Rendezvous with Rama.” What a stylish cover.

Snoop Dogg blasting the streaming model and supporting the writers’ strike is my FAVORITE thing ever. 🐐

Popping in to shamelessly promote the newest installment of Worldbuilding John Wick, “Bring in the Cleaner.” Before Wick, there was Nikita- how both films worldbuild through the addition of “Cleaners.” worldbuildingjohnwick.substack.com/p/bring-in-the…

#AcademicTwitter If you know a module that might use a book / chapter on Gothic Historical TV Drama, can you let me know module, level and institution? It's for the proposal / marketing form for my (hopefully) next monograph. A bit more detail in the next tweets... 1/3
