Alright. So I have some preliminary art for For Steam And Country. And it is HOT. I mean about the hottest piece of art I’ve ever seen. Which is good, cuz this is going to be the hottest book you’ve ever seen. I really REALLY shouldn’t share it before I have all the lettering done […]
The Battle For The Areth Continent Is Fast Approaching
Have you done your duty and signed up for the Grand Rislandian Army? We’ll need every boot on the ground to make sure that the evil Wyranth Army doesn’t prevail over our forces, guided by King Malaky XVI. Most of the action is on Facebook right now. Here’s the group if you’d like to join: https://www.facebook.com/groups/519333975122120/ […]
Congrats Mike Cernovich, White House Press Correspondent
Mike Cernovich is such an inspiration to independent journalists and commentators everywhere. I’ve been following him since I discovered him midway through last year, and he always brings a unique perspective to stories that the mainstream fake news media either lies about or glosses over. It’s propelled him to be featured on 60 Minutes, which […]
Winning, Mindset, and Habits
One of the most common questions i get asked these days is how I’m so productive with a job, family, kids, all my hobbies and whatnot. The truth is that the all my hobbies really don’t occupy much of my time. While I have a wide variety of passionate interests in sci-fi, baseball, gaming, science […]
Wrongthink Sci-Fi Giveaway
http://badnovelist.com/announcing-the-wrongthink-sci-fi-giveaway/ Some of my favorite writers are running a giveaway for their books. This is a pretty phenomenal group, and of course they are all terrible horrible wrongthinkers who should probably be banned from publishing. So if you want to read why their ideas are so dangerous, you can for free! Great deal. Incredible […]
I Have An Extremely Important Message For Your Friday
But I think it’ll be better stated by Kero Kero Bonito, so I’ll let them tell you.
Charity Auctions For Cystic Fibrosis
I’ve mentioned the CF foundation before, and appreciate the generous contributions of friends and readers. My lovely and elegant wife is running some charity auctions featuring some cool jewelry, baseball tickets, even a backyard bbq! If you’re interested, please check this out here: https://www.facebook.com/teamMGD/?hc_ref=NEWSFEED If you’re not familiar with CF, it’s a very nasty lung disease […]
The Review You’ve Been Waiting For: Cirsova Magazine Issue 5
I was pleasantly surprised with how quickly Cirsova magazine delivered their product after their successful kickstarter a couple of months ago. Usually so much time goes by between kickstarted work that I’ve forgotten I’ve backed it before I received it. The paperback has a nice thick quality to it, big, a beautiful cover, great and […]
This Simple Health Tip Will Change Your Life!
Okay, so most y’all know that I love to poke fun at clickbait headlines that I see circulating on social media. This is another one of those. However, I do actually have something that’s been pretty big for me since I started the last month. I promise not to turn this into a regular food/health […]
Your Friendly Neighborhood Sci-Fi Author: Too Hot For Twitter!
Received a ban this morning after changing my name to “Christ Follower Jon”. This follows a couple weeks ago when they got @PizzaPartyBen, the last interesting person on that site. I can take steps to get the account back, but do I want to? I don’t know. There is a place where they don’t ban […]
Racist White Male Alt-Left Internet Trolls Threaten Hispanic Novelist
Is this a sign of the times of the divisive legacy that Barrack Obama left us? (San Francisco) Hispanic novelist Jon Del Arroz receives threats of being “shooed out of the country” by alt-left internet trolls after writing a daring column for The Federalist about blackballing practices in the comic book industry. Obama supporter and […]

RIP Pizza Party Ben
I spammed Twitter for like an hour and lost about a dozen followers for being so annoying about this last Friday. But on that day, March 31, 2017, one that will live in infamy forever, worse than any tragedy that has ever occurred before in mankind, Twitter banned @PizzaPartyBen. It’s been like 5 days now, […]
Why Would Anyone Pay For FAKE NEWS?
The answer is: less and less people will. 50% off their price is pretty desperate. But, desperate times when your Times can only get 28 retweets. I’m not a king of Twitter by any means, took me a long time to figure out what it was and how to use it, but I had a […]
The Last Crusade: Christian Artists Who Don’t Suck
Whenever I talk about artist blackballing in the entertainment industry, almost invariably the first argument I come across is “well there aren’t any…” or “there are a low percentage of…” leading to believe that it’s just too hard to find good artists who aren’t insane and/or profess to be Christian. That is a lie that […]
A Reading From The Book of Jonah
Pastor Tyler Scott at Community Presbyterian Church had such a great message yesterday, I thought I would share this morning. The context is a reading of the book of Jonah, chapter two, of which we get this beautiful passage: 1 [a]From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord his God. 2 He said: “In […]
Cernovich on FAKE NEWS 60 Minutes Tonight
I for one am very excited. We know how this goes. News media acts like they take an idea (like my very verifiable story about Marvel comics), selectively edits and then completely twists what’s being said in order to attempt to destroy and discredit the person. They ignore the real story, but the thing is […]
GeekChats With Dragon Award Winner Nick Cole (Tue 3/28)
I’ll be chatting with Nick at the link below about blackballing and corruption in the entertainment industry and how the FAKE NEWS media exacerbates the problem. We’ll go live Tuesday, March 28th 2017 at 12:00 PM Pacific Standard Time. ve
The Triumph /pol/ Special Forces: Pepe Team 6
There is an unbelievable amount of Kekistaniphobia out there, believe me. It’s some of the worst hate and bigotry anyone could imagine. Kek is strong, and its power intensifies every time. It doesn’t stop the hate, however. It got so bad that a prominent political campaign tried to defame this entire group of people, and […]
So, I Watched The Dave Chappelle Netflix Special Last Night…
…It was absolutely hilarious. I saw Mr. Chappelle at a really small venue in 2008 in San Francisco, one of the few times I’ve ever made an effort to actually go out to a comedy show. I wasn’t disappointed. His gift for comedy is unsurpassed, and he literally took questions from the audience and made […]
An Update On Marvel Writers And Political Blackballing
Rich Johnston of Bleeding Cool did bring to my attention that there were more books than the ones I listed, and so I went for another week of “upcoming release” for Marvel to go through an additional crop of writers. Wow they have a lot of writers. Still, not one who has anything nice to […]
Retro Review: The Ginger Star by Leigh Brackett
I discovered Leigh Brackett, like many of the books I am reading recently, through Jeffro Johnson’s analysis of D&D’s Appendix N. While this book was not the one listed as an influence for the game, it was the only one my local used bookstore had. While figuring out what to read next, I picked this […]
Marvel’s REAL Diversity Problem
In yesterday’s post on Marvel, I talked about the global problems that have gone on for a long time that have consequently torpedoed the comic book industry over decades. Disney is either complacent in this or they are pushing this decline of this division, which can only be described as a complete business failure. It […]
