I posted a second episode of Why Not Say What Happened?, and this time around, my upcoming Guest of Honor appearance at next year’s StokerCon causes me ramble about the night in 2004 Joyce Carol Oates, Stephen King, George Saunders, and I were all up in the same Bram Stoker Awards category (and all lost), how I used my cousin Herb Edelman to break the ice when chatting with Hollywood stars such as John Astin and Jeff Bridges, why I dragged a fan kicking and screaming from a 1975 comic book convention (which I mistakenly refer to as 1976) while wearing face makeup painted on me by Jim Starlin, and more.

Plus I explain the meaning of these two photos from the 1976 Comic Art Convention!

The first one’s me. But you can tell that by now, even with the intervening 48 years, right?

And the second features Bernie Wrightson, Howard Chaykin, Jim Starlin, Steve Gerber, and Mary Skrenes.

If you want to know why we’re all dressed that way,. there’s only one way to find out.

Last week, I had a dream … and it led me to launch a new podcast. This one will allow me to talk more about myself, which I try my best not to do during episodes of Eating the Fantastic, since I believe on that show, the guests should come first.

If you have any questions, or it there’s anything you’d like me to chat about from my multiple careers in science fiction, comics, horror, etc., let me know!
