Weekly Roundup: January 29th - February 10th
Recent Posts
January 30th: BR Yeager’s Negative Space - in which I review a wild, dark, and fascinating novel that felt to me like an inverted version of my own novel, Noir: A Love Story. Have you ordered a copy yet?
February 1st: I interviewed Aaron Burch from Short Story, Long.
February 6th: An introduction to Gene Wolfe’s Book of the New Sun, which we’ll be reading together here at Wolf over the next year or so. We begin in March! So check in and see how we’ll be doing this thing.
At the Dadpod Gamescast, we talked about Chapters IX-XIII of House of Leaves.
From the Archives
I’ll re-up the first episode of the Wolf Podcast here from last month, because the next episode will be happening soonishly. Maybe even this week.
Listening
One of my all time favorite albums.
Reading
Read a lot of stuff recently, including the whole Mortal Engines series. I’ll probably have more to say about this later. One of the most interesting books I read is the oral history of Mad Max: Fury Road.
Watching
Watched Mad Max: Fury Road twice.
What Else?
I started this substack last year and for the foreseeable future it’s devoted to Varney the Vampyre, the grandfather of vampire fiction.

.Oh, too,
and I made two short movies that will be available in the near future.I’ll have more to say about this in the weeks ahead.
Along with all that, I need to start sharing information on the Ash Cinema reprint coming out later this month.
Very busy week! Going to spend this week catching up on things.
And Valentine’s Day.
