It is a dream of mine that The Genre Traveler be a TV show … maybe something like Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations … only focused on genre locations. I’ve been dreaming a lot about it lately and I thought, what if someone came to me and said, “O.K. We want to make this happen and [...]
Welcome to the new and re-thought out The Genre Traveler. Gone is the quarterly PDF publication. In its place … and this is still in the works … is a magazine-style blog. I’m still working on how I’m going to keep this site fresh while still maintaining my business, but that will come with time [...]
Erg! Today I was going to work on an announcement on the changes I’m making to The Genre Traveler, but instead spent the day regaining control of the website.
Someone hacked into it starting yesterday and locked me out by this morning. I discovered it this afternoon.
Anyway, things are pretty much back to the way they [...]
It’s that time again — time to vote for The Genre Traveler’s Charity of the Year 2008.
Place your vote now at:

The Charity for 2007 was Clarion West. Because not enough funds were raise to make a difference (a bit over a buck — completely my fault), you will have a chance to either keep them [...]
Then check out my friend’s new book, Confessions of a Feng Shui Ghost-Buster.
I’ll be honest, I edited the book and designed the cover. But trust me when I tell you, it didn’t need that much editing. It was a good book when I got it.
It’s part memoir, part feng-shui guide, and even includes some true-life [...]

Then I got married, moved to Northern California. Moved to Florida. Moved to Texas. Moved to Arizona. Moved to Maryland. And then moved back to Southern California.
Well, I’ve been here a year and it is now time to pick up my Tarot cards [...]
I just read a story about how the Moscow Circus will be performing at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk from July 8 to August 16, and it brought back memories.
I got my Bachelor’s degree at U.C. Santa Cruz and lived in Santa Cruz for about 5 years. In fact, it was while I lived there [...]
Sci Fi Weekly reported something I just had to share.
Horror author Neil Gaiman and his daughter, Madeleine, visited the set of Hellboy 2: The Golden Army in Budapest last month. Madeleine posted some pics (with captions) of her on the set in Gaiman’s blog. Check them out, they’re kinda cute.
Budapest, because of its unique architecture [...]
I’m working a couple of new sections for The Genre Traveler: Book Reviews and Video Reviews.
The former will include reviews of science fiction, fantasy and horror books that either have a strong sense of place or would make good vacation reads. It will include both traditional books and books on tape.
The latter will include reviews [...]
