After a lot of reading and stressing out about not being able to get through all the submissions in a timely manner with my new job, I am very pleased t announce that I have finally decided on the stories that will be chosen for publication in the second volume of the World Unknown Review!…

This is Genghis Khan. He’s a seven year old blue point Siamese cat that has been with me since he was about three weeks old. This is one of my few remaining hair ties, sitting innocently next to the food bow Genghis shares with his brother Baldur Cat. The thing is, that hair tie? Had…

With the exception of one hiccup that prevented my boyfriend from finally watching Skyfall before we head out to see Spectre tonight, today has been a pretty good day. It’s the first day off I’ve had where I’ve felt I’ve had some peace and quiet and been productive, without overextending myself and feeling like I’ve…

Just as I’m trying to do an “October” themed post every day here on the blog, my boyfriend has dedicated himself to watching a scary movie every day this month. I don’t usually have time for that, but I’ll happily join him when I do. We were discussing what to watch, and I said I…

October really is a great month. It’s when autumn starts coming in full swing, it ends with Halloween, and my boyfriend’s birthday falls in there somewhere in between. As a man with a soft spot for anything creepy, kooky, and spooky, he’s turned loving October into a veritable art form. In honor of this, I’ve…
