Cool Getting ready for The Cinder Spires

Yesterday I began reading...

The Ace Of Skulls (Tales of the Ketty Jay #4) by Chris Wooding. This is the last book (at least so far) in Chris Wooding's SteamPunk series Tales of the Ketty Jay. This series has been my introduction to SteamPunk along with a free standing SteamPunk novel...

Ticker by Lisa Mantchev that I got a few months ago as my monthly freebie in the:

program. Anyway these books have gotten me at least somewhat familiar with the SteamPunk genre.

Now all I need to do is finish reading The Ace Of Skulls and then just wait for the release of Jim Butcher's new SteamPunk series, The Cinder Spires, which debuts on September 29th with...

The Aeronaut's Windlass (The Cinder Spires #1) by Jim Butcher!

Cool TV shows (series) that I watch to fulfill my supernatural needs...

There are three TV shows (series) that I currently watch to fulfill my supernatural needs:

I've been watching Rob Thomas's iZombie! It's kind of Veronica Mars but she's a Zombie MD who is working in a morgue (for a source of human brains to eat) who helps a police detective solve murders!



Rob Thomas is the creator/writer/producer of both shows and his lead actresses show a remarkable physical similarity to each other. I've always avoided Zombie movies/TV shows/books but this one is a definite winner in my opinion.

...There's also Penny Dreadful:



Penny Dreadful is about gothic horror and has many recognizable characters from that genre.

...And Orphan Black:



This one is about clones and stars Tatiana Maslany, a Canadian actress who is pretty much unknown in the US but I believe that will change. She plays all the clones who are all quite different individuals!

Ooh. I've heard a lot of good things about these TV shows. I'd like to try iZombie someday. The premise sounds interesting.

As for Penny Dreadful, I read a review (?) not long ago on a romance book blog that I like to visit. The reviewers are often funny and snarky.

Cool Jim at Denver Comic Con with Gemr Charity Event

Jim at Denver Comic Con with Gemr Charity Event

This Memorial Day weekend, Jim will be out at Denver Comic Con signing autographs and discussing his upcoming Cinder Spire series. This time, we’re doing things a bit different. Jim will also be signing autographs at the Gemr booth #341. Gemr is a new social site for collectors to share whatever it is they collect with other like minded folks. You can also buy and sell on the site. They’re a start up based out of New Hampshire and have been live since January. Why should you care about some start-up based out of New Hampshire? For every person that signs up to their site via this link http://gemr.it/1JFmFqu, Gemr is going to donate $2.00 to the Missouri Pit Bull Rescue, a charity that is doing awesome things to rehab abused pit bulls and also educate the public on an often misunderstood breed.

Also, if you want to effectively double the amount that Gemr will be donating on your behalf, all you have to do is upload two additional items to the site. Gemr will be donating $1.00 for each additional item, up to $2.00 extra. That’s an opportunity to donate $4.00 to a charity just by signing up.

If you want to get something signed by Jim, or even just get a picture, swing by the Gemr booth, again booth #341, and sign up. They’ll be handing out tickets to the first 110 people that get there each day looking to get something signed (so Jim can have plenty of time to chat with folks as he’s signing). Here are the times that Jim will be at the booth each day:

Saturday the 23rd – 5:30pm
Sunday the 24th – 4:00pm
Monday the 25th – 1:00pm.

If you want to read more about what the folks at Gemr are going to be doing at the show, you can check out their blog post here.

Again – to have your sign up count for donation purposes, be sure to click this link here http://gemr.it/1JFmFqu and it will take you over to their page!
