I left portland on Halloween morning, arriving in NYC that night. I spent a week there, surrounded, on all sides.I went to Cavestomp, a psychedelic/garage weekender. Turning on during The Creation was a religious experience, and seeing The Kaisers for the first time was well worth the price of the ticket. All together I was left with a bad taste in my mouth when it...

Most exciting comic I've read in quite a while. It's an interesting mix--on one hand, you've got allegories so clear and undisguised that I'm not even sure they count as allegories; on the other, you've got frickin' redcoat military officer robots with TVs for heads. It reminds me of stories kids tell each other in kindergarten, those massive whopper lies about how you spent the summer fourwheeling and your fourwheeler had silver tires and could fly*, only in this that shit is actually going on and these characters have to live in in and deal with it. The world doesn't make sense, but some of the people in it do.

*probably not a lie I told my friends in kindergarten

Snow makes suburbia pastoral, a cleansing sprawl on the land. I can make shapes in the snow that sound psychedelic when you hear them. Snow families spring up on front lawns as if transported by magic, or the modern equivalent of magic, computer technology. I can walk for hours at night, an never see another, and if by chance I do, we are comrades, braving...

Karen Abbotts first book was Sin in the Second City: Madams, Ministers, Playboys and the Battle for Americas Soul, which needles to say, was not the kind of history book you read in school. Centered around the Everleigh Sisters who ran a prominent Chicago brothel for more than a decade, Abbott...

All I do here is write and play guitar. It's fantastic, a dream come true. Complete and total focus on the important things in life. I think I will begin a short story after I'm done with this letter. I don't know if it will turn out, I've never tried to write one before. The only social outlet that I have here is sending letters...

I'm a huge fan of Brian Wood's work. And any collab with Becky Cloonan is just icing on the delicious comic cake. Why do you think he said that the market was hostile to works like New York Four/Five?

That's so awesome that he mentioned the Mad Magazine game. Similar to Monopoly, except the point is to be the one to lose all of your money first.

I have two copies of that game that I've held onto for decades.

I can't imagen your life now.
You have been in my thought and dreams in all my days. Your influence is a constant in my life. Every time I drink I feel you inside me.
Who am I to deserve such love, I am undeserving of the love you give me. My love for you backfires turning inside me eating at a soul, an insect....

When you hear Jason Segal and Ed Helms star in Jeff, Who Lives At Home, you might think of some wacky screwball comedy. It is a comedy but not like youd expect. Segal plays Jeff, and he has yet to move out, but he is a philosophical loser. He has...

I'm starting to forget why I came here. Two days ago I got a job canvassing for for donations door to door in the dead of winter. Fantastic if you could make an hourly wage and not just commission. Inside: Christmas trees like Candy Land, T.V.s preaching the word of warmth. Outside: Streetlight shining off snow, hands so cold you cry out of the fear...

So I'm going to SF here in a week. Going to be hanging out with Gomiboy, taking photos and making movies. If anybody wants to be in any of my movies write me. You can also write if you want to take a poor suicide girl out for dinner or drinks.

I have come up from the well, am wiping my self off. It looks wonderful up here,I see why you all miss it when your down with me. Everything is transcending. I hope to float forever. I'm close to God right now. Not far from heaven I can see right inside. In fact I'm all alone.

"The Dry Salvages" is one my favorite recent SF-Horror blends, absolutely top drawer stuff, very Lovecrafty, but updated and more frissonish.
