Stardust: Being a Review Within the Realms of Faerie

by Unknown's avatar

The book, turned into a very popular movie that has quickly achieved cult status, was published in 1998. Originally it started out as a written story that was published in comic book form (sort of). Neil Gaiman, the author, wanted artwork displayed with the book and from what I read, convinced his friend Charles Vess to do the illustrations.

So I seem to be unable to avoid things like social commentary, movies, and visual mediums in addition to writing. So with that in mind, I’m changing the format of my blog. Now, not only will I tackle writing, but pretty much anything geek-culture-related (Yay me!) Oh no! Does this mean that you won’t be giving out writing advice? Hell no! Getting emails from … Read More Lucifer: Best Show in a Long Time

Because it is amazing! With the fall of the expanded universe into ‘Legend,’ several new books have risen out of what is being euphemistically called ‘New Canon.’ Which basically means … Read More Star Wars Dark Disciple Review

Good Story Writing Inadvertently Reveals Incompetence

by Unknown's avatar

Sometimes, really good story-telling can backfire… BADLY! The perfect example of this is on Law & Order SVU… Honestly I dislike this show.

They are grossly incompetent, way over emotional for their … Read More Good Story Writing Inadvertently Reveals Incompetence
