Hello Wikipedians. On this Website, I will gladly share what I believe are facts (just like everyone else). I know that you can not believe everything you read, and I know that everyone is wrong some of the time. I have a tendency to research things to death. If I am unsure about something, I will either not post it, or I will ask about it in the discussion section of the article.
Books
editDo you dare to enter the Portal of Horror? Recently, I started working on and creating some Horror fiction related articles like
- Alan M. Clark, a popular horror artist who does tons of book covers
- James A. Moore, a writer (and a Starbucks Barista, I guess writing doesn't pay all the bills)
- Bloodstained Oz, a very fun and scary Wonderful Wizard of Oz related book (a satire).
- Cemetery Dance Publications, small press
- Earthling Publications, small press
- Richard Chizmar, short story author and editor
- Christopher Golden, a prolific author
- Glenn Chadbourne, an emerging artist who recently released Stephen King's The Secretary of Dreams: Volume 1
- Brian Freeman, a writer
- Al Sarrantonio, a writer
I am also working on articles for Children's books I grew up from authors like:
- Mercer Mayer (I have been working hard on the Bibliography of Mercer Mayer page)
- Maurice Sendak
- Jack Kent
and more...
Movies and television
editI have also been working on Movie and Television articles like:
and 100's more.
Music
editI am a huge fan of all kinds of music... especially:
- Adam Ant
- Hall & Oates
- Erasure
- Merril Bainbridge
- Nellie McKay
- Enigma
- Deep Forest
- The KLF (also known as The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu, SPACE, The Timelords, The JAMs, K Foundation, Disco 2000, The One World Orchestra, 2K, ...and more too!)
- Ernie Rettino
- They Might Be Giants
- Massive Attack
- Duncan Sheik
- Pet Shop Boys
- Agapeland
- Music Machine
- Pillar
- Blessid Union of Souls
- Candle
- Steven McClintock
- Tim James
and 1000's more.
I have been updating album articles with bonus tracks (from different countries and/or limited editions). I guess I am sort of a silent member of Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums. Also, if I find an album from an important artist that doesn't have a page, I create it.
More information
editTo be fully honest I am getting involved on Wiki to write down my investigations into completing my collections. If I find out about a rare item, I will write it down on here and share it with the world. I am constantly in search for books, movies, and music from my childhood.
Things like the song "If There's No Such Things as Dragons (Then Tell Me What is This)" on the little golden record that came with the book, "There's no Such Thing As A Dragon" by Jack Kent, may not be interesting to some people, but it was one of my favorite songs when I was little (along with the, "Where in the World Is That Poky Little Puppy" song from The Poky Little Puppy Little Golden Book and Record). You remember these. They came with a 7" 33 1/3 record: "SEE the pictures, HEAR the record, READ the book" ("Children can see and read every word of the story in the book as they hear it on the record, plus music"). You know! They had the audible signal to make you turn the page (or Tinkerbell chimes). Ha ha.
I was thinking of adding an article of the Little Golden Book and Record sets that will list the songs that came with the records (there is a Disneyland Records article right now), but I just found the article Disney Read-Along and I can add some song titles to it. These songs have not been released anywhere else that I can think of (including, sadly, the recent CD releases from Little Golden Books... probably due to copyright laws). I wish I knew who had the rights so I could beg and plead that they release these special songs to the public.
