Hi all—posted a day late to let bleary-eyed Mario get his blog done. When I saw him at Warren Hammond’s signing (see Mario’s post below), he looked beat (Mario, not Warren, who looked splendid.) A sure sign Mario had a good time at Bouchercon.

Not much to report this week. A cool video below from James Gunn’s PG Porn web series. This one stars Nathan Fillion. But not to worry—this website’s tag is “For people who like everything about porn except the sex…” It’s pretty cool.

I picked this up last week—Terminator SCC TV series is all but canceled. But I’ve heard other stuff since then that it’s been given the green light to film a few more episodes. Maybe all is not lost. I like this season so much better than last.

BSP: a link from Mysterious Galaxy in San Diego. Guess which book was Numero Uno for September? Legacy! Thanks to all who attended the signing and bought books before, during and after.




November 3 is the release date for At The Scene of the Crime—an anthology with a CSI theme described thusly on Amazon:

With the long-term success of procedural shows dominating prime-time television, the readership for a forensic anthology extends well beyond traditional mystery readers.

Brendan DuBois
Edward D. Hoch
Michael A. Black
Max Allan Collins and Matthew Clemens
Jeremiah Healy
Kristine Kathryn Rusch
Julie Hyzy, John Lutz
