The following is the first chapter of Push, out July 21st, 2021. 1 My dreams aren’t what they used to be. They used to be vivid, wild, free. Now they’ve become the home of everything I fear. My life itself, though, is a juxtaposition of my sleep; when I’m awake, I’m okay. At least, IContinue reading “Push Exclusive: Read The First Chapter Now”

Push Comes To Shove
June 28th, 2021 My seventh book, Push, is locked and has been submitted for publication. (It’s not available for pre-order… yet.) As a creative person, sometimes you plan a multi-year project that, more or less, comes out exactly how you envisioned it (see: The Weirdos: Volume I, Them/Us). But, sometimes, a story comes along andContinue reading “Push Comes To Shove”

Announcement: Push
May 29th, 2021 Ope. I guess I had another story to tell. We’ll obviously talk a whole lot more about this, the sequel to Flip, as it gets closer. But I have to say: Push is dark. Maybe the darkest thing I’ve ever written. And yet, if I do my job right, my goal isContinue reading “Announcement: Push”
Forward
May 20th, 2021 I won’t forget 2020 for a number of reasons. For all of the reasons, honestly. As the great poets Chumbawumba once sang: “I got knocked down.” But, like Chumbawumba goes on to say, I have to get back up again. And from the ashes comes a new look and a bold directionContinue reading “Forward”
2020: A Lesson, A Curriculum, An Education
December 31st, 2020 It is fair to say that this year sucked. It is damn fair. And it is a truth that we will have wasted our time if we decide to learn nothing from it. So, with that in mind, here is some of what I learned. – I learned not only is tomorrowContinue reading “2020: A Lesson, A Curriculum, An Education”
Flip: Special Edition
December 18th, 2020 “Write drunk, edit sober.” In my twenties, I was master of the former. For a while now, though, I’ve been living by the latter. In that spirit, I wanted to revisit my second novella, Flip, with fresh eyes. I didn’t want to change the story, but I wanted to clean, clarify andContinue reading “Flip: Special Edition”
