The Big Idea and Other News

Over at John Scalzi's blog, he runs a series called The Big Idea. He was kind enough to let me reminisce about growing up being my father's shadow on hunting and fishing trips and how that affected me and consequently the gestation of Southern Gods.

Go check it out and comment. It's a nice little essay.

In other news, Peter Andrew Leonard gave a glowing review of Southern Gods at his fantastic book review blog, The Man Eating Bookworm. So, get on over there and comment.
Historical, lyrical, and downright masterful. SOUTHERN GODS is a carefully executed excursion into the unmapped territory of madness and horror. Each sentence, each paragraph, displays Jacobs' care and precision, his dedication to craftsmanship.
He said that and other nice things. Go visit.
