Click here to read Part 1, click here to read Part 2, and click here to read Part 3. Here’s the final installment of my look back at a book I created—and shelved—25 years ago, way back in 1998. If you’ve been following along for the past three parts here, you already know it was... Continue Reading →

I love this naturally blue-tinged photo from the Southbank side of the Thames River in London, looking across the expanse of the Millennium Bridge to St. Paul's Cathedral. I love this area of London and always stay there, near the Tate Modern, when I visit. If you enjoyed this post, please leave a like or... Continue Reading →
Snapshot is an irregularly-scheduled series featuring reminiscences of places and experiences in my life. To read all my Snapshot posts, please click here. They say that when you’re a witness to some kind of tragedy, you remember everything about it: Where you were, who you were with, and what you were doing. I was only... Continue Reading →
Continuing the story of the book that almost was from 25 years ago, Tails of Two Kitties … Click here to read Part One and click here to read Part Two. I honestly don’t remember the story of the agent (whom we’re calling Elizabeth) and how I met her and how her interest in me... Continue Reading →
Oh, to live in London and just walk around and explore bookstores one day of each week. That would be a definite nirvana for me. Taken in 2019, I believe, on Charing Cross Road. If you enjoyed this post, please leave a like or a comment and follow me here and on Instagram@gg92118!
Welcome back to my November-long examination of my long-lost (25 years ago!) attempt at getting a “real” book published, albeit one that was a cartoon book. It was the tale of my two cats, Stan and Ollie, and as I explained in Part One (click here to read it), it was first called Fuzzheads and... Continue Reading →
Hey, all I know is, I saw the bridge, Big Ben, and the bird and just started snapping photos. This is one of my all-time favorite pics from any trip, anywhere, that I've ever taken. God, I love London. If you enjoyed this post, please leave a like or a comment and follow me here... Continue Reading →
(Thought we were done with “My Life in Comics,” did you? Well, think again!) We all have forgotten chapters in our lives and this is one of mine. Sometimes they’re merely lost to the mists of time and memory, other times they’re right there, just in front of you, every single day. This chapter falls... Continue Reading →
My favorite spot to be when the leaves fall in autumn is Central Park in New York City. I haven't been there since 2021, and to be honest, the last few fall trips I made back there had lousy timing, at least foliage viewing wise. Here's a shot from years ago that makes me wistful...

Ah, Fall … how do we love you? Let me count the ways! Pumpkin spice? NO. Sweater weather? YES with an * … *I live in San Diego, so winter is more sweater weather time, if winter ever actually arrives. Lots of new books? YES, YES, and YES, gloriously YES! Here’s what I read in... Continue Reading →
This here is how we grow our asparagus in these here parts. Tall and lean and we need a big pot to boil them in. Serve 'em with a little sea salt and lots of melted butter. Good luck finding a plate big enough to serve them on, though. (Palm trees in Tidelands Park, Coronado,... Continue Reading →
We’re back with our third big Tales From My Spinner Rack! video on our official YouTube channel (not counting our teaser video)! This time, we’re presenting a re-creation of my Comic-Con 2023 panel presentation, featuring a look at two of DC Comics’ most popular titles from the 1950s and 1960s, Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen and...

I snapped this lonesome black cat watching the world go by on a walk many years ago, when I still lived downtown. This little guy (or gal, let's maintain a little mystery) was in a window up on the cusp of Hillcrest, a neighborhood north of downtown. What's going on in that mind: "I'm hungry?...

We’re back—or we will be—next week with a brand new Tales From My Spinner Rack! video on YouTube featuring the re-creation of my sold-out (no fee was charged), standing-room-only (there were plenty of seats) Comic-Con 2023 panel presentation, featuring the wild and wonky comic book adventures of Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen and Superman’s Girl Friend...
