March in New England is a good time to steep in regret and think about all the mistakes you’ve made in your life. Namely, how did I end up here in the hills of Worcester County, watching multiple feet of snow fall over everything, while my friends and colleagues in warmer climates are tending to…

Available now: PROS AND (COMIC) CONS
I have a piece in the new anthology PROS AND (COMIC) CONS from Dark Horse Comics and Bedside Press. My lil essay “A Lonely Place of Trying” delivers a stream of consciousness look at the mind of a writer (me) hanging in Artist Alley at comic conventions. Short version: It’s a weird experience.

The gift of gab is the gift that I have – SciFi Saturday Night podcast
I was a guest on the podcast SciFi Saturday Night! I talk with host Dome about my “career,” if you can call it that. A strange but I think enjoyable experience. I think. Anyways, listen to me drone on and behold the splendor of my provincial accent, if that’s your thing. Thanks to the SciFi…

Fitchburg, Mass. long had strong undercurrents of vice coursing through it. Heroin was no different. In the mid-90s, it roared to the top of the menu. It was often easier to…
CRYPT ZERO Comic Script
Here’s a comic script I wrote way back in February called CRYPT ZERO. It’s with an artist now, who may be drawing it or using the printed copy as a doorstop. Regardless, you can read it with your eyes for the low low cost of free. Happy New Year! [gview file=”https://www.radvon.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/crypt-zero-erik-radvon-2-11-13.pdf”]
