This was the week I started my new music blog, The Mixtape Lives On. One song a post, one post a day, endlessly surprising, always something new. So far we've had a free download from Billy Bragg; songs about mixtapes from Bow Wow Wow and Los Campesinos!; new music from The Slow Readers Club; and a cracking cover version of Sexual Healing by The Hot 8 Brass Band.
We also wished a very happy 5th blog-birthday to my favourite music blogger: JC, The Vinyl Villain.
Over at thoughtballoons, Danial chose H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu as the character we all had to write a 1-page comic script about this week. I looked for horror in the most everyday scenario imaginable... because that's always where it's worst. Read my story here.
Elsewhere in the blogosphere this week...
Scott Pilgrim met Ramona's 8th boyfriend...
An old pal launched a new blog full of drunken misanthropy (and believe me: he isn't joking)...
Nota Bene had a lucky escape...
Dad Who Writes considered whether we want to read more toilet breaks and menstruation in our fiction...
Steve made the ludicrous assertion that Big Bird would win against Octavia The Ostrich in a cage fight (he couldn't be more wrong)...
...and Rob relaunched The Negative Channel... because what the internet really needs right now is more negativity.
(If I haven't mentioned you or your blog this week, it's not that I didn't find it interesting or entertaining. I'll get to you in weeks to come. Honest.)
That was my week on the web. How was yours?
