I’m going to preface this by saying that of course people have different tastes in movies and books. While I do sometimes feel judgy toward people that defend literary or live-action garbage, I recognize that this is a shitty trait I should continue trying to shake. People are allowed to like whatever the hell they want. That’s not the point I’m making here. With that out of the way… What do horror writers and fans think they’re accomplishing by talking…
Yeah, it’s the same depression and doubt that happens all the time. I’d been sleeping too much and tired all the time, even waking up often in the middle of the night. That hasn’t happened much since I started using a CPAP. Turns out, my sinuses were stuffy and it was impeding my breathing.

JoJo loves climbing all over the desk almost as much as he loves jumping off of it. But see, it’s a cheap piece of crap. I’ve already bought it twice because the first one had a…
I’m not sure what triggered me to be so irritated by an known writer’s claim that “as a writer, words are my life.” Granted, answering every question or prefacing every statement with “As a writer, I…” is already pretentious AF unless you’re doing a signing, workshop, or other event designed to showcase you as a writer. Hint: that probably doesn’t include the entire internet. The entire internet doesn’t revolve around any one person. If it did, it would probably be…
