I have to imagine that several times a week he looks down at his scuffed loafers and thinks that if he had just been a little more serious in school, he could have been Dr. Peanut.

A new book is on the way from Ghost Show Press! I've contributed to a couple books in the past, and they always come from a crew of clever cinemaphiles having a ton of fun. Join me in backing the next showing of the Ghost Show! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gho...

The rulebook just hit my inbox, and it's taking everything I can to not throw away my responsibilities and just spend the day reading through it.

Enough body horror games. I want body hope games that celebrate the meat shells dutifully hauling around our tarnished spirits.
