Today we have a copy of Paul Cornell’s new book, London Falling, to giveaway to a Pink Raygun reader. To enter, answer me this: You’re a paranormal beastie in an urban fantasy novel. What city are you terrorizing and why?
Geek in Repose: Being an Outsider, and the Embracement of Labels
Labels permeate our society. We can’t exist without some kind of succinct definition as to who we are, usually given to us by someone else. It’s the invisible name tag we’re handed and we sometimes get stuck with it. I’ve struggled with my label, growing up at a time where it wasn’t cool to be on the outskirts.

Game of Thrones: Walk of Punishment
Let’s contrast that fun tavern song about eating kitties with how rapey this episode was. But, not in a frivolous way, like True Blood. More in the horrifying way, evoking those feelings that rape should evoke in a decent human being.

Contest: A Place Beyond Ryan Gosling’s Sweet Abs
Today, in promotion of the new Focus Features film, A Place Beyond The Pines, we have two prize packs to give away.
Game of Thrones: Dark Wings, Dark Words
Margaery Tyrell makes Cersei Lannister look like a sloppy, vulgar brat who spits and flails. I can not wait for those two to go head to head in all out, fancy lady war.
It was Geek Night in Brooklyn
We recently threw our first Pink Raygun geek-up at Freddy’s in Park Slope and we now have photographic evidence that it was a success!
