I'm setting up for the Rose City Comic Con! My second year with a booth here. It'll be another wonderful experience.

There's no proximity alert when you're standing near the precipice of change. It's in those moments when we reflect back and realize that the longest distance of measurement in our life was the point between yesterday and today.

Glen Campbell began a two week run at #1 on the US Billboard singles chart with 'Rhinestone Cowboy' on this day in 1975. It got three Grammy nominations, and was CMA's Song of the Year. Bruce Springsteen later performed a cover of it to close his "Western Stars" concert film.

Life isn't a race. You can do things at your own pace, and still cross the finish line.

"House of Bone and Rain" is extremely heartbreaking, oftentimes quite frightening, sometimes very emotional and, as it is always with Gabino Iglesias, absolutely unforgettable. One of 2024's best novels.

The first nationwide sneak previews of "Paradise Alley" happened on this day in 1978. This incredibly underrated Stallone film had the misfortune of following "Rocky," so audiences were expecting something quite different. It's a strong movie that deserves more recognition

"Psycho" was released on this day in 1960. Alfred Hitchcock's masterpiece is truly the "mother" of the modern horror film. Brilliant Joseph Stefano adaptation of Robert Bloch's terrifying novel. Unforgettable performances. Spectacularly innovative Bernard Herrmann score.
