While I fight to rehydrate and the Vancouver heat wave fights to turn me into a dessicated husk, here’s five things I learned last week.

• The impossible space drive isn’t so impossible
• Canada is getting it’s own Fangoria Horror Convention Horror-Rama – Unfortunately, it’s in Toronto. Unfortunate because that means I probably can’t go, not unfortunate because Toronto is a bad location or anything.
• I’m not reading all the horror magazines I should be – At least according to LitReactor.
• David J Rodger is giving away a Cthulhu Mythos short story called Hokan – Yes, I’m pretty late with this one.
• Amanda Palmer sung backup vocals on one of Weird Al Yankovic’s new songs – and she’s very happy about it.

 

Now, time to retreat to somewhere cooler and do some writing.
