Weird Stories #1


The FADING SHADOWS genre magazines kicked off in June 1995. By October 1996 we launched WEIRD STORIES #1, with a great cover by Albert Roberts, and containing six stories by Rick Brooks, Ginger Johnson, Sean Danawski, T.J. Glenn, Jeffrey Zverloff, and Tom Johnson. WEIRD STORIES only lasted for 26 issues, but each issue contained approximately 40k words, which amounts to a lot of fiction. Back issues are still available from Tom & Ginger.

Red Ryder BB Gun & Double Holster Gun Set

Red Ryder BB Gun & Double Holster Gun Set


Santa arrived a little early tonight. Ginger asked me a couple weeks ago, “What does the man who has everything want for Christmas this year?” I told her the only thing that came to mind was that double holster cowboy outfit my dad wouldn’t buy for me when I was a kid, because he needed the money for booze. I never did have a double holster gun set. Well, look what appeared on my wall. That Red Ryder Model 1938 BB Gun has a wooden stock and hand rest. The double holster set is real leather, and the gun set are twin Outlaw models. The belt is 35 inches long. I wonder if I’m still fast on the draw?
