Whenever I write about and link to my brother's photography , the positive feedback is just overwhelming. It seems that people all over the world love his work just as much as I do, and as a big brother that makes me put my hands on my hips and smile like a goon.

This is a little bit of gallows humor that I whipped up and sent to Scott Kurtz and my friends at Penny Arcade when we all knew that Aeofel was dead, but couldn't tell anyone else in the world. It seems pretty stupid and clunky now, but at the time, it was as hilarious as it was cathartic to me.

It turns out that all this talk about getting excited and making things , uh, got me excited to make something.
I don't remember the precise moment this hit me, but I'm pretty sure it happened during one of those times I felt stuck on a story or something, and decided to get out of my office ...

I can't believe it's Friday, which means tomorrow is the weekend. Where did this week go, anyway?
A few things I wanted to mention before I get busy:
1. If you'd told me a year ago that I'd be going to bed between 9 and 10 every night, then waking up entirely on my own between 6 and 7 ...

My friend Ariana works with Warren Ellis to make all kinds of really cool things. Lately, they've been experimenting with print on demand technology to take creative risks that simple economics would have rendered impossible as recently as five years ago.
For example, three weeks ago, ...

When I was working on Leverage this summer, I spent quite a bit of quality time in Powell's world of books. On one of my trips into the store, I saw a little book with a fantastic cover that I knew I would be buying before I even laid a hand on it. That book was called ... Shatnerquake.

Did I mention that I turned in Angel One to my editor last week? That means that this week, I'm working on what was commonly called "one oh one oh one oh one oh one oh one" by my friends on TNG. It's also known as The One With The Bynars, and I recall thinking that it was pretty good. I loved ...

I'm way late to the party on this, but I just started reading Spook Country this week. Unlike most Gibson books I've read, it doesn't ramp up slowly, and instead hits the ground running (that's not a bad thing). I'm only 30 pages in (it's been a busy week without a lot of time to read) but I'm ...

In the world of entertainment, there are things that make me laugh, there are things that make me cry, and there are the rare things that work on so many different levels, or are so surprising, they simply drop my jaw to the floor and blow my mind. This cover of Poker Face by Molly Lewis is one ...

I've struggled for most of the morning to come up with some profound and lyrical way to mark the day, but the words I usually find so easy to command just refuse to reveal themselves ... so I'm just going to keep this post simple and to the point: Thank you, veterans, for your service.

I guess I could just say, "Hey, I'm playing Magic on Xbox Live this weekend, so check out the details here ," but it's more fun to tell a story, first.
In 1993, while killing time between appointments, I wandered into a game shop in the valley. I looked around the aisles, thumbed through ...

I've been struggling lately to turn a lot of ideas I have into actual stories. I kind of feel like my writing mojo has taken a temporary leave of absence, and the harder I look for it, the harder it is to find. It has been incredibly frustrating. This morning, in Warren Ellis' BAD SIGNAL ...

When I wrote my w00tstock post , I totally forgot to mention that we put some video interludes into the show, to make sure that we were giving the maximum A/V Club experience to the audience. There were some very funny shorts, including Mister Bungle getting the Riff Trax treatment , the ...

Everything I could possibly say about w00tstock has already been said by Paul and Storm , who made a lovely list , and Molly , who made a comic that captures exactly how I felt the whole time we did our shows.
I loved feeling the terror and exhilaration of trying something totally new (The ...

Holy crap! It's time for Memories of the Futurecast .
Memories of the Future, Volume One , covers the first 13 episodes of TNG, so each week, I'm choosing something from one episode, and performing an excerpt for you. It will mostly be from the synopses, which is where I think the real ...

Anne is helping a friend move today, so she went down in The OC last night, in order to avoid the hellish traffic that exists on the Southern California freeways between 6am and 10pm just about every day of the week.
This meant that Nolan and I were alone last night, free to watch the ...
