Gizmodo shows there’s been unintended health consequences of light pollution due to the implementation of LED lights. Indeed, as the new results show, the amount of outdoor lighting around the world has increased during the past several years. “As a result, the world has experienced widespread ‘loss of the night,’ with half of Europe and […]
Do Not Be Unequally Yoked
A reader left a rather chilling comment on my youtube channel worth reading: I had a girlfriend, and relationship lasted about three years. I adored her. Friendship, affection, passion, and common ground in movies and books, with lots of fun sharing…or at least I thought. One day a minority woman was pushing her around, and […]
Black Friday – Cyber Monday Sale!
The Lasers Dragons And Keyboards Podcast (great book podcast run by great people) coordinated several authors for a four-day sale. Superversive Press is joining in on this, and added my books For Steam And Country and Gravity Of The Game to the list. If you haven’t checked them out, now’s a great time. If you […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
I’m thankful for all of you, my readers. You’re the best and keep me going through the hard days and good ones. I also just got an interesting message from an unlikely source about my recent Gravity Of The Game novella which implies some folk over on the establishment side of the world are reading it, […]
The Last Crusade: Deliver Us From Evil
Yesterday when I was doing my weekly scripture reading, I found that I all too often don’t exhibit the traits describing love, which are the traits of God. It made me reflect on the fact that I also all too often have evil thoughts, and even if I haven’t act on those, a part of […]
The Awful Truth About Forgetting
Yeah I may have clikcbaited you a little bit with the title. But it worked. You’re reading. I’m not going to do a blog about forgetting (of which I really do have a terrible long-term memory), but about a book titled The Awful Truth About Forgetting. I mentioned it briefly in the links in the […]
Monday’s Culture Roundup
I talked about quite a bit on today’s Periscope which you can view here: https://www.pscp.tv/jondelarroz/1eaKbqLZqWrxX?t=13 So I wanted to give a handy list of links to the things I mentioned.

Cool Cosplay!
This Halloween I was quite happy to learn I had the first cosplay (to my knowledge) based on my book. A reader sent me this picture of a dapper young gentleman: Dressed as the astounding and magnificent Baron Theodore Von Monocle. I’d say he did an excellent job, a nigh perfect job of recreating the […]
A Great Review From An Unlikely Source
A File 770 faithful actually left this on another blog about my short story, “Winning Is What We Do” “Then you get the whole of a JdA story. It’s actually quite funny, some of it intentionally so. Basically Trump and slightly-older son Barron are viewing their latest super-weapon, an all-US-made suit of power armour when […]
Marvel Ousts Alonso, Promotes New EIC
It’s been reported that Marvel has ousted Alonso. They’ve promoted C.B. Cebulksi who, refreshingly, seems to tweet mostly about creativity and art and not politics. Marvel Entertainment, the world’s most prominent character-based entertainment company, announced today that C.B. Cebulski has been promoted to Marvel Comics Editor-in-Chief effective November 17, 2017. Former Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso has […]
Indie Comics Is Where It’s At
With all the troubles Marvel is having, even after their supposed “relaunch”, and while DC is certainly producing high quality art… it just doesn’t have the emotional stakes. Part of this is because of the way the big two are set up with their comics — to keep their characters the same: iconic and unchanging […]
The Anti-Male Discrimination Looks Worse For Sci-Fi Insiders
A reader did research and found some more staggering conclusions after reading my article on Anti-Male discrimination by publications. I was sent me the following by a source that has to remain anonymous for their own safety: After reading your piece, I decided to also take a look at the identity of the of the editorial […]
