A few quick notes:1. Awake, NBC's upcoming drama about a detective (Jason Isaacs) living in two separate realities, is getting good advance buzz. Though the entire pilot episode can be viewed right now on NBC's website, I'm going to start recapping/discussing it here shortly after the official premiere on March 1st. I'm in desperate need of some meaty, interesting viewing, so let's hope it fits the bill. (Many thanks to our always-insightful frequent commenter Patrick for first suggesting this back in December.)
2. You know my analysis of Duran Duran's (awesome and zombie-filled) "Night Boat" video that I posted here last March? It's been republished over at Andy Taylor's official website. This kind of thing only strengthens my current pro-Andy stance. Especially since he even tweeted about it:
3. My new book, Bias Cut, just advanced into the second round of the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award. I'm feeling pretty good about this right now; I think it's the best thing I've ever written. It's gratifying to see a little positive movement on it.
That's it for now. Fingers crossed that Awake will bring us all Heroes-esque levels of discussion fodder; I've missed the raucous days of long, bizarre, hilarious comment threads around here.

How awesome is Andy??? That's so cool that he republished your review! My love for Andy in recent years has totally skyrocketed.
I'm looking forward to your reviews on Awake. I had to go look it up, as I hadn't heard of it (no cable/tv in my world), and it looks quite intriguing. And Jason Isaacs... always a good actor.
DKoren: I am feeling very warm and fuzzy toward Andy Taylor these days. He may have his flaws, but he's never boring. And evidence increasingly suggests he might be a very cool guy.
Did you know Andy would tweet and recommend your blog post? Or did it just pop up in Andy's Twitter stream, and then screamed very loudly?
...And yeah, I'm totally feeling Andy these days. Very cool.
Good luck with the book. What is it about?
Evidence increasingly suggest Andy's a cool guy.
