About me

Location Western North Carolina, United States
Introduction I have long been interested in storytelling - how we do it, why we do it, and what happens when we mix things up. This interest might be the result of being born and raised in the American South, a region that has long celebrated the involved story over the quick answer. Television - the good stuff, anyway - does this brilliantly. Far from being film's red-headed tacky cousin, good TV lets characters and relationships build slowly and often mixes up genres, so horror is next door to humor and fantasy rubs shoulders with procedurals. This blog focuses on the "good stuff" being broadcast that catches my fancy, as well as providing a place for me to post updates on my latest publication project, which is a viewer guide to the incredible AMC show BREAKING BAD.
