I want to talk a little bit about action figures once more as I’m an avid collector of them. They’re fun to display, fun to collect, and certainly fun to play with your kids with… unless they’re the $30+ ones with fragile parts… then yeah, just the first two!

One thing I would ask is that upon completion of the novel, PLEASE leave a review, preferably on Amazon, but any book selling site would be great! Word of … Read More A Request From The Author

A lot of people, mostly older and notably academic, would say no. You’re basically looking at a lot of pretty pictures with some text. It has no real character or setting description, no alteration, nothing. Which is true, but does it really matter that much? On the one hand, you could argue that a picture is worth a thousand words and you’re omitting those … Read More Do Comic Books Count As Reading?
