@krp.bsky.social may not have been first to teach that "horror films reflect real anxieties," but he's among the best. "Projected Fears" is in a 2nd ed. to tell us how films like DRACULA, PSYCHO, SAW & GET OUT captured the zeitgeist. @bloomsburyacad.bsky.social www.bloomsbury.com/us/projected...

The only sequels John Carpenter would consider making
John Carpenter tended to avoid sequels to his own movies like the plague, although there are several titles that could twist his arm.

I loved AMERICAN MYSTIC. Like FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS in a world filled with magic and demons and monsters. A great plot enhanced by brilliant writing and the political insights are biting and provocative. One of my favorite books of the year.

A couple of you have asked what length an SF novel should be. Here are SFWA's guidelines for the Nebula Awards: 1. Novel: Over 40,000 words 2. Novella: 17,500 - 40,000 words 3. Novelette: 7,500 - 17,500 words 4. Short story: Under 7,500 words Hope that helps.
