March 1st, 2023 What would it look like if Quentin Tarantino wrote a sci-fi book about an alien invasion? My first novella, Them, might be the closest we get, and this is how I’ve sold it to everybody else over the ten years since its release. The book is an explosion of pop culture, complicatedContinue reading “SKP 2023: Them”

March Hare
February 23rd, 2023 Before this month is over, I have one more Unproduced Work to talk about. I saved the most important to me for last. The bunny in this photo is my good friend, Jojo. We go way back. I created him when I was a teenager. He lives in a place called BioContinue reading “March Hare”
Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing Review
February 20th, 2023 I finished Matthew Perry’s book this afternoon, and I have a lot of feelings about it. If I were the kind of person to share my feelings, I would do that here, but I’m just not that guy. jk. Let’s get to it. I want to start by saying it is notContinue reading “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing Review”
Jargon Decrypted
February 19th, 2023 I’ve written several series for the web. We actually used to call them that: web series. I don’t really hear that term much anymore, except when used to describe sitcoms starring spiders. Several web shows I created were never released. Some notable titles include: The Green House, about two immature men whoContinue reading “Jargon Decrypted”
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”
The Visitor! Revisited
February 10th, 2023 I once tried to make a movie. A musical one. About an alien. The other topic this month is Unproduced Work, and I’m going to start with the film that, to be completely honest, kind of broke my weird, little heart. This is The Visitor! By 2011, I had produced a lotContinue reading “The Visitor! Revisited”
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”
SKP 2023: Online Writing & Unproduced Work
February 1st, 2023 Welcome to February. It’s just as damn cold as yesterday. It is also a brand new monthly topic on my Sleeping Kitty Productions 2023 calendar: Internet Writing & Unproduced Work. And I’m going to start with a big question: Why the hell do I do this? By that, I mean: what isContinue reading “SKP 2023: Online Writing & Unproduced Work”
All the Wrong and Dark Things
January 31st, 2023 Today is the last day of Origins month, and I sincerely want to thank anybody who’s been reading. A better explanation of why I’m doing this (and why I do anything on the internet at all) is coming tomorrow, the first day of a new month, and a new topic. Going throughContinue reading “All the Wrong and Dark Things”
