Finally, a day for celebrating air horns!

February 27 has come and gone and I let another Air Horn Appreciation day go by without a single blast of an air horn.  It’s sad when you’re too busy to even enjoy the simple things. 
Seriously, this an online ad for Cheetos (of which, I am a huge fan), and normally I don’t like to [...]

Twitter – Yet another way for me to be rejected! Or Twitxiety here I come!

I love Twitter. It is a great tool for me to get the word out about my books, and connect with people across this big blue and green globe of ours. I am happy I stumbled across it months ago, and then happened to talk to @thenextwriter who helped me understand its awesomeness. [...]

Why there should only be puppies in the ocean!

Why do people go in the ocean when there are giant creatures swimming beneath their feet that want to eat them? Humans on the surface of the water are basically floating hors d’oeuvres. Big, nasty, dinosaur type animals live in the deep blue sea.
Case in point: A British fisherman caught the biggest stingray [...]

New Bigfoot Video

Is it the big ape or just a really hairy redneck? I have my opinion, but it’s just an opinion. It’s not based on anything other than gut. BTW – this is the really cool thing about writing science fiction/fantasy type stuff. I get to keep abreast of all this crap, and not be considered [...]

Lost Days – Post 1

I’m working on a couple of books right now.  If you’ve been following me on Twitter and Facebook, you’ve seen me post a total word count for each project and final word count goal every night.  The goal is just a guide.  I’ve had a lot of people ask me how I know how long [...]

The Closest I’ve Ever Come to Winning an Oscar

Repost in honor of the Oscars.
Before I published my first novel, I actually wrote 12 screenplays.  None of them were ever published, I had some fleeting interests, but nothing ever materialized.  I was even fortunate enough to be a semi-finalist in the Nicholl Fellowship.  The fellowship is sponsored by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts [...]

Kid Rides Python – I Can’t Help But Think of Jim Morrison

What do you do when a gigantic python moves into your house?  You let your child play with it, of course.  Seriously, I think the snake is just waiting until the kid’s big enough to be a decent meal.

Change

Change is the theme for the day.  I’ll get into more details later, but for now, enjoy the one  and only Bob Dylan singing Sam Cooke’s “A Change is Gonna Come.”  I’ve posted Ben Sollee’s version here before, and I like it the best out of all the remakes and covers.  But Dylan is the [...]
