Tom Joyce's chamber of the bizarre

Yes, I do edit videos and post them online. But don’t let that give you the impression that I have the slightest knack for anything technological. No joke — I still haven’t figured out how to send text messages from my phone.

What I’m getting at here is that I’m still figuring out how to work this blog, and probably will be for some time to come. Just tonight, I learned how to add a blogroll, which is that little doohickey over to the side with links to other sites.

That was a big deal to me, because two things I really want to do with this blog is: A) Help disseminate things that I think are cool, and B) Make contact with people who are into the same things I am.

Fortunately, this post allows me to do both. I heard from a writer named Odina Coven. How can a writer have a name like that and NOT be cool? She’s with Unforgettable Books, Inc., run by the charming young ladies who appear in my horror convention video. (If you haven’t watched it yet, do so. It’s pretty freakin funny, if I say so myself.)

Anyway, Odina’s site is now on my blogroll. She cites Edgar Allen Poe and Bram Stoker as influences. Hard to go wrong there. Check out her site here.
