Editor’s Note / October 2019

Published by

10.1.19 Vol: 7 / #10 Ah…hello October! This year is flying by fast, maybe too fast! I have to catch my breath, but for the moment I have a lot going on this month and it’s going to be a pretty good one at that. Lots of music, poetry, literature, art, and all the other great stuff associated with fear.  Fear has many faces. We face them and brave them every day, but one thing I do know, and that’s God is not the author of it. Not only fear but a few other subjects that we face.  New music coming our way, like FKA Twigs,  film reviews, and such coming as well. I’m done talking…Goodbye September…On to October.           Featured image: Natalie Franke w/The Guardian & Wallpaper Access   Advertisements

7.1.19 Vol. 7 / #7 Hello! A new month has crept up upon us. This going to be a short editor’s note from me… Machine Gun Kelly has a new album coming, along with other artists, newbies, and veterans. I’m keeping my eye on the Governor’s Art Show that will be held on every weekend in September in NYC. If only could be there for that! During this time of the year there are quite a few workshops, conferences, and other events in art, literature, and other creative outlets, so I am on the lookout. Where to? You’ll have to visit the blog site for that. I always say that there will be changes to the site and that is true. I’m gonna need some help to run it soon.  So goodbye June…Hello July!         Featured image: Wallpaper HD

News: Out of the Office / Alien: Night Shift

Published by

4.17.19 Hello everybody! It’s Wednesday and I just wanted to let you guys know that I will be out of the office for the whole week.  Shadow Spotlight, Where To, MidWk and Weekend Updates will return next week. In the meantime, take a look at the third Alien short film Night Shift. Enjoy the rest of your week, be blessed! To celebrate Alien’s 40th anniversary and in partnership with Tongal, 20th Century Fox is releasing new Alien-universe fan-made short films leading up to Alien Day on April 26th. Written and directed by Aidan Brezonick, the synopsis for Night Shift reads: “When a missing space trucker is discovered hungover and disoriented, his co-worker suggests a nightcap as a remedy. Near closing time, they are reluctantly allowed inside the colony supply depot where the trucker’s condition worsens, leaving a young supply worker alone to take matters into her own hands.”   Featured image: unknown
