REALM OF HEROES AND MONSTERS: STORY TIME with A.P. FUCHS: S02EP03 –
Spinning Room
Episode 3: Spinning Room – No matter how many times Sharon tries to beat the Spinning Room, someone always dies, unless she can find a way to conquer this tower of terror once and for all.
Join A.P. Fuchs for a surreal tale of weirdness and horror and desperate escape in this third episode of THE REALM OF HEROES AND MONSTERS: STORY TIME podcast. To open the show, Fuchs states some amusing points about the show’s creation and what parts make him chuckle, but he doesn’t waste time and gets right into this tale of terror. And when all is said and done and you listen to the story behind the story, well, let’s just say things make sense.
Thank you for tuning in this week. Lending your ears means a lot. Peace.

A lot, actually. Asking a fellow writer for a blurb can be both easy or daunting, depending on the ask. In the case of CAUGHT IN BLACK HEADLIGHTS, the writer/poet I asked to blurb my book is someone I admire and, frankly, was a little bit nervous handing over the galley for it.
I write poetry, sure, but it’s not my main medium. I used to blast out poems non-stop once upon a time, but these days they’re few and far between. However, the approach to CAUGHT IN BLACK HEADLIGHTS is different than my other stuff and, it seems, paid off.
I won’t give away details just yet, but the book did indeed wind up getting blurbed by that writer and it will be used on the front cover.
Welcome to the first shorts and reels for Bludhaven’s protector! Seven showcase videos showing off awesome Nightwing action figures from across various toy lines.
Nightwing has always been a favorite hero of mine and is second to Superman. I got into Nightwing back in 1995 and haven’t looked back since. Interestingly, there was a hero on Krypton named Nightwing. That’s a whole other storyline to discuss so perhaps in another video. Until then, please enjoy these wicked Nightwing videos and dive deep into these superhero action figures.
One of the new features of Patreon 2.0 is photography. Not just plain click-click of the camera, but fun shots with a little bit of pizzazz to make it interesting. It’s also fun for me as a creator to play around with photos and make something cool out of them.
The pic above is one such example of the pile of photography available at Patreon 2.0 and, yes, the one I’m showing here had to be a car. Well, Hotwheels, right? Right.
Anyway, hope to see you on the Patreon Page. Lots of fun and tons of content, including Patreon photos.
Oh no! Someone bashed your baby! All those months–maybe even years–of hard work and somebody doesn’t like it. They leave a bad review and you’re stuck feeling like garbage. Or should you?
Veteran author and self-publisher A.P. Fuchs weighs in on a very simple way to handle a bad review.
Hope you find this encouraging despite it being blunt.

Been keeping an eye out for some die case Matchbox cars that really jump out at me from the shelf. This second showcase of my Matchbox Cars collection has some terrific models like:
1936 Ford Coupe
1960 Chevy El Camino
1953 Buick Skylark Convertible
1992 Mazda Autozam AZ-1

I guess it’s back to the toy store for me to hunt down some more spectacular Matchbox cars!
