I was finally able to see the latest Spider-Man flick, the lateness a combined result of living in Japan and working in the mountains during the summer. I’ve done my best to avoid reactions to this movie, but since I exist, a few things crept through the ether. Still, I managed to avoid most spoilers. … More Grumpy Bird Reviews: Spider-Man Homecoming

But the writing suffers. Things that … More Grumpy Bird Reviews: Luke Cage s01e08 Blowin’ Up the Spot
Having a one year old in the house, a full time job and aspirations of being a novelist means it is hard to binge a show unless I just want it to be background noise. Only just now finishing episode four. Slow and steady wins the race? Luke Cage s01e04 Step in the Arena writer: … More Grumpy Bird Reviews: Luke Cage s01e04 Step in the Arena
All this month I’ve been doing a push for more readers and more reviews as a birthday celebration for me. My birthday was yesterday and with about a week left in June there has only been one review.

My site just hit a milestone. Right now my view count for this year has hit a new level. Every time the site hits a nice, new round number I feel a little happy. This year has been great, even with the slow down I had after my son’s birth. Not only have I surpassed … More A Game of Numbers
