  • Thank You Recent Echo Purchaser!!!

    SkerBAMMERSLAMMER!  Whoever that was that bought Echo Volume 1 yesterday…Thank You!  Echo 1 is currently being edited for paperback release.  There will soon be a less clunky version of it up there, so if any of you would rather not suffer through my amateurish first bit of fiction, then hold off a bit and I’ll…

    IMHO, a writer (or any artist for that matter) must be gifted or willing.  “To do what?” you may ask.   To breathe the air of their worlds, to dine with their characters, to live with their heroes, to sympathize with their villains…in short, to BECOME their stories.  The audience, I believe, can tell the…

  • Man Child Monday

    I said I’d take a pic of myself and here it is:  Your favorite author and perennial Man Child Kent Wayne, procrasturbating like there’s no tomorrow.  On the stool is Man Child’s favorite zoomie.  Photo taken by friend and Cool Guy Jumar Balacy. #IShouldBeWriting #ManChildMondays

  • Echo: A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel

    “Yeah so we’ve decided to give you some more vacation days, let you do your writing as long as you’ve done your work, and move you into an area that has some natural light.”  These words come from my boss, who smiles as he scootches his glasses up his nose with a manicured forefinger.  “Really?”…

    Ignoring weakness feels great, but ultimately does you no favors.  Obsessing over weakness makes you feel “in control” and somewhat powerful, but hampers you like an iron weight. Acknowledging weakness and learning to navigate it…that leads to strength.

  • Palamades Publishing: Get your fix of poetry, ghosts, and soon…giant robots. That’s right: Giant robots motha duckas!

    I’m stepping through the woods, getting my fill of sunlight spearing through trees overhead, when I hear:  “NOW’S OUR CHANCE!  GET HIM!!!”  Just like in a scene from outta Aliens, metrosexuals come charging at me from all directions.  What the hell!!!  Metrosexuals are supposed to dissolve when they make contact with nature!  Before I can…

    The ability to write about anything is predicated on the willingness to BE anything (within the bounds of one’s imagination).  It’s all well and good to close yourself off from what is “vile,” but in writing, I find this to be a limiting factor.  Does that “vile” character in your head think of him/herself as vile?…

  • Echo: A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel

    I’m walking past four cheerful dudes snapping their fingers, smiling, piping out:  “How sweet it IS to be loved by you, by you by yoooouuuu…”  Cool!  Barbershop quartet!  Always wanted to try that…I stop and listen for a bit.  Suddenly, they rip off their pinstriped outfits and WHAT IN THE DARK KNIGHT???  They’re clad in a…
