My Ecstasy Days

On October 27, I began my guest blogging stint for Jeff Vandermeer on his very popular Ecstatic Days. My tenure started with a reprint of my rarely seen 2003 Hellnotes self-interview complete with commentary and updates. My guest stint extends through November 11. I'm planning on continuing my presence here as well.

My Fantastic Fest 3 blog

I am contributing a blog about Fantastic Fest 3 over at RevolutionSF, where I will be writing reviews of the festival films and other happenings.

From the FF3 site:

Fantastic Fest is a week-long festival featuring the best in new science-fiction, fantasy, horror, animation, crime, Asian, and all around badass cinema. The event was created to offer exposure to genre films which are often overlooked by the traditional festival circuit. We strive to offer acquisition, media and exhibition opportunities for undistributed films as well as to spotlight upcoming genre theatrical releases and give audiences a chance to see 35mm prints of repertory classics.

Until the festival starts on Sept. 20, I'm previewing the Festival.
