Mischief Managed!
Jul. 15th, 2011 03:33 amHome from Harry Potter. I should totally be in bed, and I will be...soon. Have to work the day-job tomorrow. More like the afternoon-job since it's a 2-close. I'm hoping it'll be slow, and I can not be too stressed.

So yeah...Harry Potter 7.2 was amazing. The whole movie was in 3D, and we got special 3D glasses that were round. I totally kept mine. DH2 was perfect, or as close to perfection as a book to film can be within the confines of space and time. Specifically, ( Spoilers if you've not read the books ) So yeah, that's all I've got as of this writing. I really hope I don't find a bunch of flaws in it after thinking about it for a few days. Not sure when I'll be seeing it again, hopefully some time when I can show up early enough to not sit in the far right of the 3rd row. Damn, it was good.
Kicked off 7 Authors in 7 Days over to the Zombie Zone News. First interview was Kim Paffenroth who wrote the most well-respected scholarly book on Romero's work to date. He is also a fascinating cat who is a professor of religion, and just put out a fiction novel on zombies and Dante's Inferno. Great interviews coming up with some new writers, and also the likes of Peter Clines, and Craig DiLouie. The guy from Audible.com was great and sent me some awesome audiobook samples to accompany the interviews. It's gonna be swell.
Other than that, just making edits on The Finster Effect so I can get it to beta readers by the end of the month. I'm not supposed to be buying any books. But um...I bought some books. New copy of Danse Macabre, A Best of Lovecraft collection with a delightful intro by Robert Bloch, and then a few I sent to some college friends who recently had a baby.
