Some were probably invented to mess with the heads of noobs. Some of them are carefully nutured lies, like Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. Well, no [...]
That seems like an unusual idea, doesn’t it? That wielding a camera to capture single moments in time really has anything valuable to add to the process of writing stories? But it has, I think. Each time I pick up the camera, I think about writing, and each time I write, I think about [...]

Gremlins! Also, Amazon Women On the Moon, I think it was called. Which was kind of genre — it did have that pulp SF stuff, in among the sex comedy and the rest.
