It's Hump Day

It's Wednesday, aka Hump Day, the middle of the week and almost Friday. I know it's been a while and I want to thank you all for not hunting me down like angry torch-bearing villagers. If you did leave a comment on my Crow post, I did respond, very late and I am sorry about that. Craziness and I have a rotten summer cold.

So I got to see The Dark Knight Rises this past Saturday night and whoa! I had a blast and can't wait to see it again. You can check my review at The Movie411. I got to see it at Ikon, which is this really swank theater in downtown Chicago that has VIP seating. We get to sit in recliner-like seats with call buttons for waitstaff that will bring you goodies and alcohol. What an experience! No 3-D, but I'll take recliners and booze.

In book news, the incredibly talented M. Pax from Wistful Nebulae has a brand new story out, Stopover At The Backworlds Edge. Here is a little bit about this brilliant new tale.

The Backworlds Book 2 is Out!

The sequel to The Backworlds is now available. Craze and his friends continue their adventures in Stopover at the Backworlds’ Edge. See what role chocolate plays in the galaxy this time.

The interstellar portal opens, bringing in a ship that should no longer exist. A battleship spoiling for a fight, yet the war with Earth ended two generations ago. The vessel drops off a Water-breather, a type of Backworlder thought to be extinct. She claims one of Craze’s friends is a traitor who summoned the enemy to Pardeep Station. A betrayal worse than his father’s, if Craze lives to worry about it.

Available for all ereaders from:

iTunes and Kobo will be available shortly.

If you haven’t read The Backworlds yet, it’s available as a free read from many outlets. See HERE for links. [http://mpaxauthor.com/the-backworlds-series/backworlds-the/]

And in other awesome sauce news,  I have received an award from one of the coolest horror bloggers out there,  Kaijinu at Sticky Red: A Body Count Compendium has tapped me with the Liebster Award. Yay! I will be doing a full on acceptance post shortly. Thank you so so much, Kaijinu!

So what did you all think of The Dark Knight Rises? Have you seen it? Do you want to? Anything cool and exciting you want to share?

  2. The Dark Knight Rises was spectacular. Nolan forged a cinematic thrust that opened up an ocean of possibilities for aspiring filmmakers. I'll be sure to check out your review at the 411.

    And congrats on your award! You're a treasure for all us bloggers :)

    1. I am starting to feel better, now. For awhile I thought I was going to just remain in abject, nasally misery. :)

      Thanks for checking out the review, I know TDKR doesn't open in Bulgaria until later. Hugs rights back!

  5. not hunting you down with a crowd of torch bearing villagers? Hm, I thought I did send them after you, naughty sister... Did you bribe them with whiskey or did Victor chase them away?

    Thanks for finally explaining to me what a hump day is, I always wanted to know but was afraid to ask : )

    1. No bribery this time, Victor chased them all away...He's such a handsome and skilled guardian. ;P

      I'm glad I could clear up Hump Day for you. It sometimes can be awkward when you want to know, but there's no real good way to ask. I've been there plenty of times myself. :)

    1. I have to say that this is probably the very best way to experience a movie in a theater. I will definitely be doing this for The Hobbit. :)
