A little late to my own party, I know, I know but I've been prepping to go to Houston, TX for a book event. My friend Sonny (the one I reference in this post) just wrote his first book, a rock memoir called Son of Southtown, which comes out Feb 25 ... and he didn't... Continue Reading →

I've made mentions to it here and there but now that the cover is done and narrators are picked, I can talk about everything in full.

Caution: this post is about Ekpeki but Gaiman, Harlan Ellison and others are getting brought up as a comparative example. It has been brought to my attention that there are issues surrounding Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki and ethics.
