  • Echo-A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel

    Meteor hurtling towards Earth.  I’m staring at it terrified from inside my car, my 10 lb. terrier Bitefighter beside me.  My eReader on the passenger seat (open to Echo of course) flashes with magic light, enveloping Bitefighter.  His eyes glow, and his little paws levitate off the seat.  He says, “Throw me at it.”  I…

  • The Morning Thank You to Yesterday’s Purchasers!

    Making them cents, making them cents!  Before I rattle my brain and see what 600 words fall out for Echo Volume 3 I want to say Thank You to yesterday’s purchasers!!!  Thank You to the person who bought a copy of Echo Volume 1 and Thank You to the person who bought a copy of…

    Even though we must sometimes oppose each other, what does it hurt to genuinely wish the best for everyone?  Rather than hope for someone’s suffering, this view—even from a selfish standpoint—provides the most reward for me, as I don’t have to maintain those exhausting stores of malice.  Though circumstance may dictate that I destroy or…

    Evidence indicates that our relationships/accomplishments are temporary, and for that matter so is all life, this planet, the galaxy, and even the universe itself.  And yet I believe (ironically, I know) that contemplation and embrace of this transience will reveal what is deep and abiding. Call It what you want; I think history has shown that names…

  • Echo-A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel

    Oh no—BUGS!  A horde of cockroaches and spiders has flooded my apartment, and I was just about to chill and re-watch LOTR.  My eReader (open to Echo of course) flashes with magic light.  The picture of Gandalf on my boxed set turns to me and winks.  What the…Suddenly, miniature sized heroes of Middle Earth stream from…

  • Echo: Thank You Recent Purchaser!!!

    I’ve met plenty of checklist zombies—they take massive time and care in crafting manicured, soulless iterations…then they pat themselves on the back.   Personally, I’d rather drink deep from that inner well of creativity, the one that we all possess, and mesmerize myself with iterations of every flavor and strangeness.  In this way, I believe an oasis is formed—one for…

    I (and many of you) have been betrayed:  let down at one point or another.  But that is no excuse to withdraw and become a rigid, reactive shell.  No, I take betrayal as inspiration—inspiration to train my instincts and skills, and make my inner and outer capabilities all the more trustworthy.

    Traffic.  Traaaffiiiiccc.  Been stuck 4 hours in a jam and the cars next to me are filled with bickering couples, screaming babies, and  loud teenagers.  My face feels like it’s melting off.  Next to me, my eReader (open to Echo of course) flashes with magic light.  A horse-size Labrador with robo-wings lands on the hood…

    True leadership is not defined by flashily taking the reigns, but by bearing the heaviest burden.  And through a mix of cunning, assiduousness and pure positivity—making it look light.
