    Vortex Books and Comics

    vortex books and comics logo

    All right, folks, listen up. I’m late to the party but horror authors Brian Keene and Mary SanGiovanni opened up a comic and book store in Columbia, PA called Vortex Books and Comics.

    If you’re in the area, head down and support a couple of writers displaying their passion for the written word through sharing books and comics with others.

    Brian has been a long-standing figure in the field and has won numerous awards. Mary is also a prolific author with several books under her belt. I know that this store effort is going to be one fueled with passion and opportunity to reach readers in a way that perhaps they might not have been reached before. Better, it’s an independent author-friendly store with little-known quality titles awaiting discovery.

    I’m really excited to see where this bookstore endeavor goes, and Brian’s no dummy. I trust his business sense to make the store a success. And besides, I’m pretty sure Mary will keep him in check should he smoke too many cigars and starts talking about how he just met The Defenders.

    Address:

    477 Locust St
    Columbia, PA 17512

    Monday — Closed

  • On One Thing a Day

    We don’t always have the same amount of energy every day. Heck, some days it’s impossible to move and get out of bed. Unfortunately, not moving equals not doing anything equals being unable to move your career along. I’ve always maintained that if, at a minimum, you can do at least one thing a day—big or small—to move your career forward, you’re one step ahead of yesterday and one step closer to achieving your goals. You can get some writing or drawing in, or get some marketing done, or drop some books off at the bookstore, or anything else. Point is, just do at least one thing a day. That’s at least seven things a week, which leads to 365 things a year.

    Now that’s a lot of work.
