Dexter Early Cuts: All in the Family
Kudos to Showtime for releasing animated tales from the Dexter universe between seasons. Here's a link to the Dexter: Early Cuts cartoon series on youtube (with voiceover by Michael C. Hall himself). All the Dexter webisodes are also available on the Showtime website.

I've begun a new series of original digital art called "Demons of the Dark" on my flickr gallery. Demons of the Dark will be an imaginary bestiary from the shadows of hell. It kind of scares me. (Even scarier: in the spirit of the original gorelets poetry series, I'm creating these by 'fingerpainting' on my iPhone (using the great ArtStudio app)! Returning visitors to gorelets.com may recall that the site once hosted a gallery of its own (and information about all my books in a bibliography). These elements of the site are being rebuilt from scratch, and are not ready…
