I can’t remember the last time I did one of these, so that must mean it’s time to write one! Originally I was going to dedicate an entire post to Make Dad Read Comics; I would still like to do that, but I’m still feeling a little conflicted because I don’t want to draw too […]

2018 Reading Update
About a month ago I presented my reading list for 2018. I figure since the first two months of 2018 have come and gone, it’s time I provide an update of where I am. Well…I’m not doing so well. I’m 67% of the way through “From A Certain Point of View” (short story collection based […]

Hunter – by Wil Wheaton
