Miscellaneous Debri

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, animals both domesticated and wild, prepare to be amazed ... just not here.

I've been neglecting the web in order to finish my--hopefully!--final revision of Sowen. This is one of the slower revisions because of other commitments interfering and because I'm finally forced to finish the little details I have been putting off.

The web, however, has not not forgotten me. I've been trying to get through all of my feeds ( I use Google Reader, if anyone cares), and after nearly two hours of reading, I'm still showing over 1000+ items.

So I thought I'd spend the next few entries posting some of the cool stuff I've found. These are in no particular date order, by the way.

First off, the long awaited Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus trailer. And yes, 80s fans, that's Debbie Gibson.

And since I'm doing the whole versus thing, a funny picture by Benjamin Parry titled Alien Vs Predator: Chess.

Troll's Eye View: A Book of Villainous Tales is a collection of fairy tales told from the POV of the villain. How cool! It's written for my target audience, the very impressionable 8-12 kiddies, but I'm sure it's a fun read for any age.
