    It becomes stunningly obvious how malleable reality is when artists begin using words/brushstrokes/code/sculpture to instantiate entire universes and lifetimes.  Some of those ideas become story, others become cars/houses/every manufactured thing our eyes take for the dullness of everyday life.   If you are ever bored, all you have to do is look around with an unveiled…

  • Echo: A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel

    “There is an ancient legend,” my vegan terrorist captor begins, “of a powerful terror born in the form of a man, who destroys an army of dragons and brings unending night down upon this world.”  He eyes his goons who are holding my arms, gives them a nod, and one of them delivers a swift…

    I feel like if you ponder “truth” long enough, you should be able to see it everywhere, in everything, and be able to iterate it into whatever you need.  There is no need for condemnation or worship; there is only what fits best at any given moment.

  • Echo: A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel

    I’m hiking around Golden Gate park with my confidant and buddy, my 10 lb. terrier Bitefighter, when suddenly, in the loom of the evening sunlight, I see the shadows of strollers stretch across my path.  A chill goes up my spine, and down by my ankles, Bitefighter lets out a querulous, worried grumble.  Suddenly I…

  • Echo: A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel

    “Do you believe…in the power of GRAMMAR?”  This question is asked as I’m being held down by ten Grammar Nazis, all staring at me in that dark, hypnotized way that Piggy must’ve gotten all the time in William Golding’s depressing-ass book.  The lead one is holding a poker, and its end is glowing bright cherry-red.  “I…

    I suspect that our egos function like the best stories of schoolyard bullies; they shock us into achieving greater growth, and when we are ready, we embrace our inner enemy as having done us a service, recognizing that they were essential parts of us all along.

  • Echo 3 will soon be published…does anyone NOT use Kindle?

    I just want to see if anyone wants Echo 3 on the other platforms I can push through Smashwords (Nook, Kobo, iBooks, etc.), otherwise it’ll go straight to Kindle Unlimited.  Please let me know if you want it on anything other than Kindle and I’ll release for a week on the other platforms.  Thanks!

  • Echo: A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel

    “BLEEEUURRRGH”  I dive, tuck, and roll as a stream of vomit narrowly misses me.  “YARK!”  Scrabble sideways as a particularly chunky one shoots past my hips.  My yuppie coworkers have surrounded me at a New Year’s Eve gathering.  What was once an innocuously boring suburban conversation about the latest aspirations for mud-runs and SUVs has turned…
