Why I'm so damn full of myself:
Sep. 30th, 2010 12:46 amI actually got a lot done today. This pleases me. I wrote and submitted my first contribution to Zombie Zone News. It has not been accepted formally yet, so we shall see. It's a fun article comparing REC and Quarantine--a bit trite, but something zombie people still talk about.
I also got the rest of the new podcast ep edited, mixed, and posted. So, you know...Take That, Guernica! I've begun the nit-picky research for my latest ParaWomen article. That drops this weekend. Continuing with the Ladies of Villainy series, this ep is about Evil Queens. No, not haughty gay men--actual Queens who rule lands of yore and poison chicks with apples. I'm pretty excited about it; though not so much about the fact that this series is almost over. According to my notes, there will be 2 more installments after Queens. Then begineth a series on badass female survivors (and shoulda been survivors) in various horror, haute-tension or dark drama movies, books, and other fun media.
Still catching up with Season Four of Dexter. Sadly, someone spoiled me on the big thing that happens in the season 4 finale. I know the internets were losing their goddamn minds over it when it happened. I'm still stoked to watch it all break down, but...damn. I haven't been spoiled this badly since the sixth Harry Potter book. Not only did Snape kill Dumbledore, but someone actually called me out of the blue and told me about Inferi as if maybe I wouldn't enjoy reading the introduction of zombies into the Potterverse myself! I know, that's nerdy and all...but damn. What's the fucking point of going out of your way to make other people enjoy something less?
And now: Tonight's Criminal Minds off the DVR. Then bed, work tomorrow and off Friday to get some organizing done for the NaNoWriMo, and maybe a draft of one of my ideas for short horror stories for young kids. Oh, plus I have to read over the galley for my short story Boris and the Neighborhood Watch, which is another absurdly long title. I've really got to stop that.
