It's a little late in the day, but I said I'd get it up, so here it is... the official SC review of "Power Rangers in Space: Shell Shocked", i.e. the episode containing the historic meeting of the Power Rangers and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Enjoy! I'll probably be back later to talk about my life and crap. 😛

Hi all. Expect a new Scary-Crayon piece up tomorrow (Tuesday) -- I'd hoped to have it up today, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen. I think it'll be worth the wait, though. Spectare reviews are always fun, and especially so when they involve our five half-shelled heroes... waitaminute, five?!? That's the only hint you're getting.

In other news, I finished a new (really) short story! 890 words. I'm going to sit on it for a few days, maybe let some folks read it and offer suggestions, then throw it at a market and see if it sticks. FYI, Word's Readability Statistics rate it at 57.5 for Flesch Reading Ease and 12.0 for Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level. I dunno exactly what those stats mean, but they sure make my writing sound complicated. 😛 (more...)

Notes from the bookstore:

Several days ago, a woman came in asking for this title. She seemed incredibly sad, and after I got over the initial shock, I felt incredibly sad for her. I wonder what it was like for her -- not just the whole ordeal, which I can't imagine, but how it must have been to actually go in and ask for that title... I think I might've blurted out, "Whoa... that's... heavy..." before of course offering my condolences (I'm pretty sure this book was for her, though I guess you'd still be pretty upset if you were buying the book for someone close to you). We didn't carry the book in the store. (more...)

And now, Scary-Crayon presents... SNACK CAKE SUSHI!!! Enjoy!

Oh, and as noted in the now hopefully more visible Site Talk block on the main page, I switched its position with that of the Section Archives box (so if you're looking for it, just scroll down). To be honest, I'm not all *that* pleased with it this way, since if people aren't going to see things I'd much rather them miss the Site Talk than the older articles, but I figure I can always change it back depending on the information supplied by the logs. We'll see.

Anyway, gotta run, and I wrote quite a bit in the last post, so read that if you want to know what I've been up to. Ja.

Hey, sorry about the brief posting hiatus. Hopefully the artwork in this piece (among other things) will make up for it, and hopefully I'll be back tomorrow with a new SC article. In the meantime, hop over to the main page, read the Site Talk block, and write me with answers to my questions! They would be most helpful. And, y'know, leave donations if you want. 😉 (more...)
