A few days ago, I turned forty. I felt pretty good about the first half of my life, especially my recent confirmation in the Catholic Church. I didn’t expect all A’s, but I figured I’d be a solid B student. I waited by the mail box but nothing came. Finally, a weird creature with seven heads appeared in front of me and handed me a scroll. I looked at the postmark that said, “Office of the Church, St. Peter The... Read more
So, today, my Wonder Woman agent, Italia Gandolfo, sent me this text: Betsy Mitchell is going to be your editor at Open Road. I stared at the text for a moment in utter disbelief. Then I texted back with a link to Betsy’s bio You mean, THIS Betsy Mitchell? Wonder Woman Agent texts back That’s her. (Madcap mayhem ensues as I alternate between exultation and absolute panic.) For those of you wondering why I would panic, Betsy has edited some pretty legendary people. Like... Read more
Nicolas Cage is at it again! The guy who rescued us from chemical terrorism at Alcatraz and found national treasure in New York’s Trinity Church is now working to ensure we’re not left behind.

Jenkins. When I was in college,... Read more
(In celebration of the beauty of creation, I’ve asked my friend, world renowned environmentalist, Simon Jackson nd his fiancee crazy talented wildlife photographer, Jill Cooper, to share some of their amazing wildlife experiences here on The Rogue.

Yet whenever I have a remarkable wildlife sighting, I just can’t resist, year after year, returning to the scene of the crime on the... Read more
(Yesterday, the nation was horrified at the near murder of a young girl by her twelve year old companions. The girl stumbled out of the woods with fifteen stab wounds. When the police arrested the two culprits, they told the officers that “they wanted to become servants of Slender Man “. As you might expect, this sent my fellow members of the media scrambling around to find about this mythical creature. Those in the horror world (like me) knew the name in an instant.... Read more
Warning! Raving fangirl sentimentality incoming! Ten years. Has it really been? A decade ago, I was cruising the aisles of my local brick and mortar bookstore, waiting for something to jump out at me, when a single, lonely copy of a book by an author I had never heard of caught my eye. Kim Harrison’s Dead Witch Walking was wedged there on the shelf, amidst the plethora of titles by authors I had read many times over, but this was... Read more
(David Ury is an actor, writer and magna specialist. His most famous role was being crushed to death by an ATM on Breaking Bad. We here at the Rogue loved that show, so we jumped at the chance to read Everybody Dies, the book he wrote with Ken Tanaka (are they the same person? Hmmm). Yeah, it’s a little odd, it’s a little twisted, but darkly hilarious. Even more, it brings up the question, why do we avoid the conversation about death?)... Read more
