February 20th, 2023 I finished Matthew Perry’s book this afternoon, and I have a lot of feelings about it.

The Lines I Can Clear
February 18th, 2023 One of my first addictions was a cartridge called Tetris. If you’ve never played the game — okay, you’re lying, but I’ll bite. In Tetris, tetrominoes (geometric shapes made of four connected squares) drop from the sky and it’s up to you to move, rotate, and place them on the way down.Continue reading “The Lines I Can Clear”

How Time Got Solid
February 9th, 2023 There is no point to writing on the internet. What does it really matter? What does it accomplish? Does anybody actually need it? Because I love doing things that nobody asked me to do, I write on the internet. I started taking it seriously in 2017, or as serious as I canContinue reading “How Time Got Solid”
Caption This
In my first post about Online Writing, I addressed why I do the things I do. (Tldr: I’m an idiot.) Now I want to talk about when and how. I was once a regular internet user, just like you. I would quote cringey song lyrics, use cringey language, say cringey things about my cringey feelings,Continue reading “Caption This”

January 10th, 2023 “Dennis, Steve and I think you will be as great as Walt Disney but you need to know all the big WORDS! We hope this will help. Be creative?” – Inscription from a thesaurus I received in the early 90’s, from my Aunt Jan and Uncle Steve My obsession with Walt DisneyContinue reading “The Triumph of Never Growing Old and the Spirit of Never Giving Up”
Win Tin Tin!!
January 7th, 2023 Hey. Guess what? My shipment of my brand new book, A Dream of Tin & Eternity, has finally arrived! The novella is a sequel to ALL of my work and it is, undoubtedly, a story like no other. It is both fantastically wild and deeply personal, with stakes like no other. WantContinue reading “Win Tin Tin!!”
Sleeping Kitty Productions 2023

It marks both 10 years of publishing books (a novella called Them, on April 1st, 2013), and 20 years since I released my first EP under the name The Next Step (Tangled Cords, onContinue reading “Sleeping Kitty Productions 2023”
Creator of Cooties
December 28th, 2022 “Sometimes I think the goal in writing a book is to ‘create energy’ – God save us from a raft of tepid reviews or (very possible in today’s publishing climate) no reviews at all. If people are talking about a book passionately, that’s a good thing – we might even use thatContinue reading “Creator of Cooties”
