catherineldfOr, really, Penny Dreadful. If you've managed to miss this one, it's a Showtime mashup of Dracula, The Picture of Dorian Gray and Frankenstein with Victorian penny dreadfuls. Lot of Goth stuff, sex, gore, everyone sleeps with Dorian Gray, Frankenstein's monster and Vanessa Ives rule, in a weird sort of way. I watched the entire 8 episode season in several days because I had to get it back to the library. Inserting this for those of you for whom Victorian campy horror is a thing. I am kind of smitten.
Other than this, new writing is happening. I'm part of an author Round Robin at DreamHaven on Wednesday night at 6:30. Drop by if you'd like to hear some brand new work (assuming I get it done), as well as new work by other folks. I hear there'll be cookies. :-)
And if you're in the Twin Cities some time in the next two months, my wife, Jana, has two books up in bookbinding shows at the gallery at the MN Center for Book Arts. There are some lovely books on display and it's free (but stop by the shop and buy something smaller if you're not in the market for a design binding and help keep the place open; if you are in the market for the latter, let me know). Here's Jana's blog about how she created one of her bindings for this show.
