    Echo: A Dystopian Science Fiction Novel

    The gym is where I get to return to my caveman roots; I lift heavy stuff, I relieve stress, and I secretly laugh at those fellas who stare at themselves overly long in the mirror (is that autoeroticism?  I’m pretty sure it is)  It’s the perfect complement to writing.  When I write, my overthinking brain…

Holy.  Balls. Here’s the kicker:  I haven’t written the intro detailing “the story so far,” and I completely forgot to write…

    My best buddy Bitefighter (a 10 lb. Terrier and an 83rd level intellect) and I have just been locked up for eating a shitload of magic mushrooms, then zooming around naked through the streets of San Francisco on a jet-powered skateboard (I know—this being SF, there was a 50/50 chance we’d either be given a…

Terrier Extraordinaire, a mad genius, and the deadliest being in this 54 galaxy composite known as the Local Group.  I have defeated dragons, aliens, and extradimensional beings that would make H.P. Lovecraft fill his pants with terror-poop.  But I am now faced with something that taxes…
