I had a swell time meeting Annalee and Charlie Jane, the book Scatter, Adapt, and Remember sounds very interesting and hearing Annalee discuss it actually kinda made me more cautiously optimistic about the future. Good deal.

At Harvard Square for cocktail/meetup purposes if you wanna go a little nicer, trendy there's Noir, if you wanna go more divey (but awesome divey) there's Charlie's Kitchen (really tasty, reasonably priced drinks) and somewhere in the middle there's Grendel's Den., which has a real pub sorta vibe and some decent

Also, PLUG, my own novel Nefarious Twit is featured as LitReactor's Book Club Pick of the Month this month so in case anyone here has read it, or even if you haven't, you can go over to the forum and check out what's being said.

I just finished an ARC of Good Sex, Great Prayers by Brandon Tietz so I could write my review of it for DigBoston. Loved this book. It's about a preacher and a witch and sex and witchcraft and small towns and super awesome dogs, yeah it covers all the bases. It has a feel like early Stephen King, really good small

Couldn't disagree more about the Kill Bill ending. I loved that it ended with a conversation instead of a total bloodbath. It was surprising and satisfying. And gave the whole movie an extra level of poignancy when The Bride finally delivered her killing blow. That's actually one of my favorite final confrontations

Ready Freddie.

So I'm partial to this one because I was the one who made it. But still, it's pretty snazzy, right?

Shameless self-promotion I know. But seriously, I've worked on my novel for 6 years and I've had to reread it more than anything else ever. But hey, it's done! And the kickstarter is doing pretty good! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/21469…

I gave 7 years of my boyhood to working at 'ol Blockbuster. And I wrote and article about it called "Big Trouble In Little Vagina Or The Death Of The American Video Clerk: The Modern Day John Henry Versus The Redbox Rental" Steam Engine http://digboston.com/boston-lulz/20…

The next Predator story should be a period piece. I feel strongly enough about this issue that I wrote an article about it for DigBoston . I want to see Predator facing off against ancient samurais or medieval knights or 1930's gangsters.

Detroit, city of the future, huh? Obviously Robocop made all of this possible.

Well, to be fair, that dinosaur looked pretty hungry. It wasn't even skin and bones anymore it was just the bones.

Hey Justin, I'm checking out your artwork and I'm really impressed. I love the battle bunnies with the antlers, especially. All of it is really cool stuff.

My name is Tony McMillen, I'm a writer living in Boston. I write a weekly pop culture humor column for a newspaper here called DigBoston, my column is called "Touch The Wonder" Here's a smattering of my articles there: http://digboston.com/author/tony-mc…

I never liked X23. She just seemed to be a painful attempt at a female Wolverine counterpart but unlike say Batwoman or Spider-Woman she's just terrible and boring. Maybe in 10 years somebody will dust her off and make her interesting like someone did with those other two characters (Neither Batwoman or

But where's "Big Trouble in Little Vagina" and "The Neverending Orgy?"

I was lucky enough to get to interview Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Edgar Wright for DigBoston Newspaper. They were exactly like you'd want them to be in person: Adorable. We talked about The World's End, (excellent) their respective high school experiences (Frost was a raver!) and their shared love for British

I love the end of Death Proof and its Lady Triumph shot.

Nonplussed is a perfect example of a word which now has two definitions which completely contradict one another which makes things confusing as hell. So I've started saying non-nonplussed, which means absolutely nothing.
