Quote Of The Day
Quote Of The Day
Anyone who has a dog knows that they have some very deep thoughts, that they have moods and emotions, they get their feelings hurt. It’s not a far reach to give them opinions and values and long-term desires.

Cloven Book Two is so good taking you deeper into the world and featuring amazing art #comics #comicbooks #graphicnovel
Dr. Kenneth Langner, a world-renowned geneticist and creator of the Cloven species, reveals himself to Seattle Stranger reporter Jake Arthur, who continues his in-depth research on the homeless encampment known as “the Jungle.” When Langner turns up dead the next morning, Arthur realizes he’s into something far more sinister than he realized.

I'm sure there are thousands, no, millions of people just waiting with bated breath for more inspiring words on some of the happenings at SDCC today.
Alas, I spent most of my time there socializing with old friends (Hi Lance! Hi Lee!), and attended only one panel (Garth Stein and Matthew Southworth delighting their audience with background on The Cloven, book two due August 28, but fantastic has it for sale at the Con and I snagged one, but really, all you need to know is that you should be buying and reading these books and eagerly waiting for the next volume and can you tell I'm tired?), so I'll regretfully leave you brokenhearted today and promise to cover more soon.

Books That Made Me Ugly Cry
I think I should pin down the books that made me cry and proved I'm not dead inside
It is the second to the last of 2022 and before I made the final list of all the books I’ve read to cap off the year, I think I should pin down the books that made me cry and proved I’m not dead inside.
Words have a way through me and before I knew it, I was crying so hard and all resonated with me. So, here are some of the books I (mostly) read this year that made me ~ugly~ cry (in no…

JEFFREY DEAN MORGAN reading THE ART OF RACING IN THE RAIN by GARTH STEIN for VISITSEATTLE.tv
I love very few things more than a nice long walk in the drizzle of Seattle. I don't care for the heaviness of real rain; I like the misting. The feeling of tiny droplets on my muzzle and eyelashes. The freshness of the air, which has been suddenly infused with ozone and negative ions. While rain is heavy and can suppress the scents, a light shower actually amplifies smells; it releases the molecules, brings odor to life and then carries it through the air to my nose. Which is why I love Seattle more than any other place, even Thunderhill Raceway Park. Because, while the summers are very dry, once the damp season begins, 'nary a day goes by without a helping of my much-loved drizzle.
