In this weeks ATFMB podcast, I talk about scifi television, including the renewal of Fox hit Fringe for a 3rd season, Chuck’s ratings win that might mean a 4th season and how i09 has a list of 25 books Hollywood should be making movies out of, how HBO has greenlit a new series based on [...]
Happy Monday.
I wanted to share something different with you today. It’s not Flash Fiction due to it’s length, but nor it is really a short story. It’s something in-between.
It’s a bit of future-history from The New Universe (my own little sandbox of creative endeavors – everything I write exists in this little Universe I’ve created). [...]
I’ve been feeling a little stale lately when it comes to reading. I’ve bought several books, started them and then moved on without finishing em.
This happens from time to time.
With that in mind, I made a trip to ye olde book seller and picked up a few things to whet the literary appetite. I haven’t [...]
Well. Kinda looked like a promising year for SciFi and Fantasy shows, didn’t it? Now we’ve seen a lot of shows come and go and, if you’re like me, you might be wondering what’s left out there for us to watch?

Google’s Nexus One phone sparks flood of complaints.
Just eight days after Google opened its online store to sell the new Nexus One smartphone directly to customers, its support forums have been overloaded with complaints [...]
As much as I love Doctor Who, and even though I just pointed out that it’s the best SciFi show on tv, I would be remiss if I didn’t point out some of the problems that I had with Doctor Who: The End of Time.
The whole first half. It was horribly paced. I felt that [...]
Star Trek The No-Win Scenario (Star Crossed)
One of the things I wanted to talk about with the whole Star Trek Comics at DC thing, was the treatment of Kirk in the Academy, and his solution to the Kobayashi Maru as detailed in the three issue story arc called ‘Star Crossed’.
In the beginning of Star Trek [...]
