Honk If You Hate Me
March 20th, 2023 I’ve been thinking a lot about bumper stickers. I’ve written several times about why folks are more passionate than ever about politics. People are not more political; politics have become less about politics. I have a tremendously annoying habit of trying to understand things. When someone is telling me a story inContinue reading “Honk If You Hate Me”
Puss in Boots: The Last Wish Review
March 11th, 2023 My interest started when the reviews were strangely good. Then it was massively popular. Then it got nominated for a ton of awards, while the animation industry buzzed, crowed, and purred about it, too. Then my friends swore by its brilliance.

Are You Still Watching?
February 8th, 2023 Let’s talk about Netflix. I’m going to take a break from my topics this month to address the announcement that they will no longer allow people to share their passwords. The reactions are what you would expect: people claim it’s a bad move, and Netflix itself will be hurt after they implementContinue reading “Are You Still Watching?”

January 10th, 2023 “Dennis, Steve and I think you will be as great as Walt Disney but you need to know all the big WORDS! We hope this will help. Be creative?” – Inscription from a thesaurus I received in the early 90’s, from my Aunt Jan and Uncle Steve My obsession with Walt DisneyContinue reading “The Triumph of Never Growing Old and the Spirit of Never Giving Up”

January 4th, 2023 Looks like we’re trapped indoors another day, which means there is no better time to share what I enjoyed in 2022. This isn’t a “Best Of” list; this is the stuff that captivated and moved me, and the comics, TV, and films I looked forward to throughout the year. A ton ofContinue reading “Dennis’ Faves of 2022”
Creator of Cooties
December 28th, 2022 “Sometimes I think the goal in writing a book is to ‘create energy’ – God save us from a raft of tepid reviews or (very possible in today’s publishing climate) no reviews at all. If people are talking about a book passionately, that’s a good thing – we might even use thatContinue reading “Creator of Cooties”
The History of Sleeping Kitty Productions, Part I
December 23rd, 2022 “Why the sleeping cat?” There are questions I have been asked more than most others, and this is one of them. For as long as I’ve been releasing my work into the wild, I’ve been flying the banner of Sleeping Kitty Productions over, under and through it.
