Playing Catch-up... Always

~

I'm currently typing this with one hand as my other is cradling my one yr old son as he's apparently decided to take his morning nap there. I thought that as I'm catching up on about 30 different things, I should catch up on the blog as well.

First up, I only recently had the opportunity to listen to the latest Pod of Horror, (no. 51, I believe) and I wanted to give Nanci Kalanta a hearty thanks for her unnecessary apology at the top of the show, and for mentioning "Exile: The Collected Helman Graff." As for the beer you pledged to buy me, Nanci, I've recently given up drinking. However, as far as those fifty lashes go...

Apparently I'm now on Twitter. I've been doing it for a few days and as it seems like it doesn't suck up too much time - a la myspace (which I've been neglecting, sorry) and facebook (which I've been spending too much time on). Look me up if you'd like to "follow" me - (http://twitter.com/ScottFalkner) - though I can't promise where I'll lead you. I'm still trying to decide whether or not I want to start up one of those "Haunt" pages over at the Horror-Mall... how many networking sites are there(!)? But if I do I'll let you know.

I'm working my way through the final volume of Delving - ("Delving: Culminations"). I've lain aside the "demon" comic for the moment as the third Delving book is taking priority over everything else. The cover for it should be available around the net next week.

I opened up my new Canon FS10 yesterday, I've got it working but haven't really had time to get
"in depth" with it yet. I'm hoping to maybe do some readings with it and post them on youtube... when I get time.

Setting up some spring signings is near the top of the to-do list, again, when I know what's going on, you'll know.

Went snowboarding last weekend. Fantastic weather. Fantastic terrain park. My legs still ache.

Lastly, Neil Gaiman stated on his blog that his father died last weekend. Neil has been a huge inspiration to me, and the least I can do it send out my condolences to Neil and his family. You all have my sincerest sympathies.

Nice "Exile" Review

~

There's a new review by T.T. Zuma of "Exile: The Collected Helman Graff" in this month's Horrorworld, (March '09).

Here's the linkage: http://horrorworld.org/reviews.htm (it's the 6th review down)

By the way, I never knew that "The Feast of Catchville" was a quote - cult favorite - unquote. Very cool.

In other news, still banging away on the final "Delving" book - due out this summer - and will hopefully be confirming some spring signing dates as well.

Back to work!
