Monday Links and News – 08.13.2012

by Daniel J. Hogan

My new blog, with a humor focus, is on clattertron.com. This blog, on danieljhogan.com, will be used for weekly links, news, general updates, and occasional references to 1980s sitcoms.

My links and such for the past week. Big stuff is on the horizon. The actual horizon, not the Plymouth Horizon. If you have never heard Lewis Black’s bit on the Plymouth Horizon, dig it up.

Clattertron
Comic – Schmoopy
Humor Blog – A Farewell to Couches (Well, Couch)
News Blog – Clarion Write-a-Thon: The End (Kinda)

Ginger and the Geek
Geek Speak –End Game
Podcast news! We will have our final Ginger and the Geek Podcast this week.

Lost Highway’s B-movie Reviews and Cult Films
Podcast 001 – John Carpenter’s The Thing

Magic of Eyri
Podcast 052 – Sticky Situation (Second to last episode! Only took me three years)

Originally, Kat and I were going to keep the Ginger and the Geek blog going after the show ends this week, but we changed our minds. Kat’s fashion blogging is taking off, and I suggested it might be time for her to go out on her own (plus, I haven’t really been happy with my blogging on Ginger and the Geek).

The upside is, this gives me more time to focus on my comics and humor writing for Clattertron, and my fiction writing–mainly the novel I have been working on for the past year. Yes, I had hoped Ginger and the Geek would have been bigger than it was, but I don’t regret giving it a shot for a second. I met a bunch of great people in town and made many new friends, so in my book (not the one I’m writing), that is a win.

This also frees up more time for me to play Civilization 5 plan my life (and wedding!) with Stephanie.
