Jules Stewart is the mother of a certain Twilight star, but to even mention that almost does a disservice to her latest project, which is an edgy and challenging example of independent filmmaking at its finest. Having spent three decades working in Hollywood as a script supervisor, with a rsum that spans 30 films and over 50 TV shows, Stewart knows a thing or...

I was recently fortunate enough to spend some quality time with Cory Doctorow, discussing topics related to the plot of Homeland, the thrilling follow up to his contemporary classic novel Little Brother (which serves as a primer on civil rights in the digital age). Our conversation spanned 90 minutes and ran into excess of 17,000 words, so the need for brevity dictated that I had...

Cory Doctorow has made me wait almost a year to read Homeland, the much-anticipated sequel to Little Brother, his opus on civil rights and protest in the digital age. With not one but two Doctorow novels, Pirate Cinema and Rapture of the Nerds (which was co-authored with Charles Stross), already on the release schedule for 2012, Homeland has had to loiter in the wings for...

Tiffany Reisz has just lured me over the edge of a cliff and is letting me hang. If I didn't love her I'd hate her. When I ask her how she could do this to me, she responds: I'm a sadist. It's what I do.

Fortunately Im a glutton for punishment. Having already devoured The Siren and The Angel, the first and second books in...

In the weeks since I posted my last blog, I've realized I need to clarify something...

I wrote it in response to a friend's question about the differences in mating rituals between the US and UK. In it I jokingly described the typical rules of engagement for members of the opposite sex in my homeland. However, I'm not typical, and the "average" Brit I profiled...

Adbusters co-founder and Occupy Wall Street protagonist Kalle Lasn is hoping his new book, Meme Wars, will ultimately facilitate the occupation of the worlds financial institutions, corporations, and governments from within. Its a lofty goal and a long game, but as Lasn so eloquently puts it: If we don't start fighting for a different kind of future then we're not going to have a future....

A friend just asked why I don't date, and so I pointed him in the direction of an old blog I wrote on dating, and why you should never, ever, ever, in a million years, ever, ever do it.

Suffice to say, I'm ideologically opposed to it. At the end of the day, if I want to have dinner with the primary purpose of...

That was an interesting read.

I think that, when it comes to looking to meet someone for a relationship or even if only for a one-night stand, there's no "right" method, as it may vary from culture to culture. But it's interesting to read how things normally work there in this sense.

I myself am not one that usually goes out to meet women. Not that I'm against it, it's just not something that I enjoy doing. Normally, I get to know someone via mutual friends and end up feeling "something else" for that person... It's how me and my fiance got together.

But I'm different in that sense when compared to other guys over here. Where I live, it's more common for people to get to know others in places like night clubs.
