Not the late King of Pop–Michael Chabon. Just when I thought my painful nerdrection about John Carter of Mars couldn’t get any more pronounced, I find out (months late, it turns out) that Chabon was hired to revise the script. Sproing!

Also, this post is something of an announcement that I’m going to stop updating this blog once I’ve published the last few drafts remaining in my lineup. There are better people than me doing a much better job covering the publishing world, and I’m going to let them keep at it, while I concentrate on my own work.

I’ll be bringing my author site online in the next month or so, at which point litfarm the blog will exist only as an archive for me and my handful of dedicated readers (thx Mom). The new site will be updated with news about my work as often as I can convince someone to publish it.

I’ve got another project slated for the litfarm.com domain name though. Probably something that I’ll get off the ground later this year. So don’t be strangers.

Nyarlathotep, I’m Breaking Up with You by Jason Henninger.

In keeping with the last post, here’s a short story about a John Carter of Mars movie. Well, movies. Read it.

teh hawtness!

Nerd alert. I am heading into massive geek out territory here, but you know, I’ve been writing this blog for about a year now (ignoring my hiatus earlier this year) and it’s about time I exposed my geek underpants.

Andrew Stanton (WALL-E) is working on a screen adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ John Carter of Mars stories! It’s going to be live action, with plenty of CG, and PG-13, which means… nearly naked princesses!

Fourteen-year-old me is freaking out right now.
