Genre Favorites Blogfest

This is another fantastic blogfest from our dear Ninja Captain, Alex J. Cavanaugh. I love the simplicity of his blogfests. It makes it fun and easy to visit the other participants to see what their favorites are.

Here are mine!

Movies - Adventure. With close seconds of science-fiction, horror, and black comedies.

Music - Rock alternative.

Books - Paranormal romance. (I bet you didn't see that coming! Ha!)

Guilty pleasure - Cheesy sci-fi and horror movies like you see on Syfy Channel. I can't get enough of them! Did you see Pegasus vs. Chimera on Saturday? Hehehe! So horrible!

In other news, I received a fabulous review for FEARLESS at BigAl's Books and Pals. Please go check it out. A great place to get your books reviewed. They accept indie books where many other big review sites don't.

    You're so right that Alex makes it fun & easy for us. I think I'm enjoying the guilty pleasures best. I'm proud to report that I did not see Pegasus versus Chimera, haha.

    Congratulations on the great review!

    I don't like horror movies but I seriously can't stop watching the SyFy Saturday night movies. I like to make drinking games out of them. Rock Monster is my current favorite but I did miss Pegasus Verssu Chimera though...

    Arggh, I missed the SyFy movie, and I'd planned on watching it!

    My guy-genes took over and I watched Notre Dame play Michigan State play football instead (Go Irish!)

    Fun post!

    Not a big SyFy fan myself, but I do love the cheesy old SyFy. Godzilla vs. Mothra one of my favorites.

    LOL, the husband watches the SyFy channel a lot, too! I suppose they can be entertaining as long as you disengage your brain for the duration of the flick!

    What do you count as alt rock? I'm never clear on some of these musical genres.

    Hi, Christine. As a horror writer, I love it when someone mentions it. There haven't been that many on the list so far, so I had to stop and give you a *high five* for that. :) Thanks for sharing.
