Go Out in a Blaze of Glory

March 7, 2022

We're delighted by Bonnie Cehovet's review of Ghostology: Soul Division:

This is not a book that can be easily put down. ... The content is accompanied by incredibly interesting illustrations. ... This is a learning book (a book that teaches), but the reader will see it as interesting information that presents itself as many different ways of looking at the soul, and how it is defined. It is a tool of growth and a tool of personal power. The reader needs to come with an open mind to be able to experience the joy that is to be his within these pages. ... I recommend this book for readers that are interested in how the soul is interpreted by many different cultures – it is eye-opening, and a very gentle read.

We're honored by DJ Tundra of Patronus Records, who praised our clockwork cover of The Cure's "Close to Me": "AWESOME work in the creation of this rendition and in the artistic way in which you really made the song your own. And the music video adds greatly to the overall allure of the production and is done so very well. A sensational audio/visual experience!!"

Thank you, Craig."

Thanks to Bel the Blasphemer, who writes of our Penetralia series: "I am determined to offer all the encouragement I can summon to express my continued, if not continuous, appreciation of your person(as) and your work. (The reason for my sporadicity — beyond the nature of being, I mean — is that I cannot bring myself to binge your videos instead of savouring them. Meanwhile, from the glacier I'm riding, you have been racing.)"
