Saddened to hear that Norwegian writer Roy Jacobsen has died. I first heard of him through his beautiful Barrøy novels. I think I've read all his novels in translation. A huge loss.

When you wanted to sit on your ass, read novels about witches, and drink nonalcoholic beer but you need to fight fascism

Always recommend Canadian author @authormiriamtoews.bsky.social's novels. The L.A. Times called this one the "Ted Lasso of novels".

Cyberpunk dystopian novels were less bleak.
I got a third one so I recorded it this time.

The Stand (1994) Review

Who knew the apocalypse could be this dull?

Of all the Stephen King novels I have read, The Stand occupies a very special place.

Nothing. Don't fuck with time-travel. This coming from a guy that writes novels about time-travel.

Ha! :))) So many stories / novels / movies are so poorly contrived, it's ridiculous. Copies of copies of copies. It seems it's getting harder & harder to find anything that pushes over the threshold of actually being creative anymore. Best to approach things with humor. Or switch to non-fiction.
Almost every horror movie I watch:

Someone walks into a dark house or room,

"Hello? Hello? Is anyone here?"

What do they expect in return?

"Why yes, it's just me the malevolent spirit. C'mon in!"

I am LOUD on Armando Munoz. I’ve read Silent Night Deadly Night and Basket Case. I think he’s a genius of the form writing these dense textured novels.

I read these novels as a teenager in the early 1990s and loved them, so I'm happy the TV adaptation is being made. When I first learned it was coming from the Daily Wire I was reminded that Dune was published by a company known for mechanical manuals. Sometimes good things come from the least likely

people still act like cancellation in literary circles is real, there are all these novels about it as if it’s a real thing. and yet supposedly leftist literary magazines still can’t stop falling over themselves to publish sex pests & known sexual harassers!

For sure. I was going to include basically that but ran out of space. I would love to live in a fabulous house and travel for weeks at a time. If I could win the lottery, quit my job, and write novels at my leisure I would. But that's a modest dream compared to being a billionaire.

@mrundkvist yikes.

I seem to recall in one of Lars Mytting's recent novels a scene where the bodies are kept under the church floor, because they couldn't bury them in winter. Presumably the cold stopped the decomposition though!

If you ever feel like you aren't reading enough cool, interesting, and diverse writing, just start a zine and open up submissions. I don't read as many novels or magazines as I used to, but I'm reading way more than I ever have before and loving every second.

watching the anime since reading the novels, so it was a ton of fun thinking about how the anime was setting up for the future and stuff like that.

There are standards teachers have to teach than other reading and analyzing literature. I have cut down on novels to cover other aspects and actually teach skills. A lot of HS English teachers (me) come in thinking they are teaching novels and should be focused on skills.
