Update: Announcing Westember

     I haven't posted anything for quite some time. The reason for this is that I've been incredibly busy. For one thing, I have been prepping for a super-involved Dungeons and Dragons Campaign (I DM for some of my siblings) and I've also had a big project in development for my YouTube channel, which brings me to the subject of this post.

     Beginning on September 1st I will be posting a new video everyday detailing the history of the western genre. This is something I've wanted to do ever since I first watched Cinemassacre's Monster Madness way back in 2012. Other then Jaws, I had never seen a horror film up to that time and had no real interest in the genre. James Rolfe's passion for the genre was so infectious that I wound up becoming a bit of a fan myself. Being such a massive fan of westerns (as anyone who follows this blog well knows) I hope that this series might do the same for movie fans who are trepidatious about western movies. I've yet to decide if I will post the videos daily or do a weekly round up akin to what I was doing with my comic book reviews not so long ago. Let me know what y'all think.

Here is the announcement video:

And, for the readers of this blog exclusively, here's the first (excluding the introduction) video in the series.
