SMASH Episode 8 will premiere next week.

In the meantime, we confess — we’re caught up in Star Trek mania!

This picture lovingly depicts the dispute between Kyle (who’s all about the new Trek film, which he LOVED) and Chris (old-school, Shatner-wearing-a-girdle is the only way to go).

Only Smash can settle the dispute!

Smash writer/co-creator Chris A. Bolton has his first professional short story publication in the new anthology Portland Noir, edited by Kevin Sampsell.

And it’s ON SALE NOW at Powells.com!

From the publisher:

Explore the dark, rainy underbelly of one of America’s most beautiful but enigmatic cities.

Portland Noir is an encompassing literary journey where your tour guides take you to the Shanghai Tunnels, dog parks, dive bars, sex shops, Powell’s Books, Voodoo Doughnuts, suspiciously quiet neighborhoods, the pseudo-glitzy Pearl District, Oaks Amusement Park, and a strip club shaped like a jug. Violent crime, petty mischief, and personal tragedy run through these mysterious tales that careen through this cloudy, wet city.

Portland Noir is sure to both charm and frighten readers familiar with this northwest hub and intrigue those who have never traveled to this proudly weird city.

The book also features a comic written by Jamie S. Rich and illustrated by the incomparable Joelle Jones, who teamed up for the graphic novel 12 Reasons Why I Love Her.
