Enter a strange world of Blogs, Books, Podcasts, and More.
I have talked at some length of my book ROAD KILL, a novel I put out in 2019. The book was one of those projects I was desperate to get completed after having lost the original handwritten story when I was a kid. I dunno how many different versions of the book I had in… Continue reading THE ROADKILLERS Are Coming
I'm not sure how long ago it was but it's been at least three years now since I had the swell idea of hey, my friend Paul and I should start a publishing imprint. Like everything else I fool with, it starts with a wild idea with little thought beyond. My friend Paul and I… Continue reading The Next Big Thing
There’s something about humans that makes us need to have people to look up to and strive towards. It makes sense. From when we’re young through our entire lives we are looking for people that can show us the way. Looking for behaviors to pattern and actions to emulate. Life is confusing and trying… Continue reading Burn Your Idols
When I first started writing the very first story in the MEEP SHEEP universe there was never meant to be anything more than one story about flying sheep and a princess searching for answers as to who she was. The idea was first about the Bumble Kitties, animals that were part kitty and part bumble… Continue reading Weaving Worlds
There is something strange and sacred about the summers of our youth. They stand as the first deep breaths of freedom that we get as we grow and the memories we find there are always there, waiting to be rediscovered once the days get long and the air cools once the clock hits one in… Continue reading Those Long Summer Nights
Sometimes the only thing you can do is to keep moving forward. You let your body take over, you let your mind drop into autopilot, and you keep on truckin’. During these times, that’s sometimes all you can do. The stress of the politics, the pandemic, our social strife, and then our lives. On… Continue reading Keepin’ On
In recording my recent podcast about the nature of American freedom I naturally left out LOTS of things I wanted to say so I thought I’d follow it up with a blog. The thing about freedom, as I said in the podcast, is that it is a contract. Freedom with a capital ‘F’ is about… Continue reading Freedom Fries 2
In which I talk about our need to take a pause and consider what freedom really means.
For me, I feel weird if I am not creating in some way. The way my mind works is that I always have to have a creative project cooking or I get antsy. In all this though it's easy for me to forget that I have released three books in the last year. While the… Continue reading My Newest Releases
It feels strange that for the many, many years I have been writing and writing blogs that I rarely talk about music and its influence on my life. It’s not that music isn’t a constant in my life, a constant in my head, but that I feel like an imposter talking about music. I… Continue reading To The Beat Of A Drum
A few weeks ago, as it seemed as if the pandemic was lessening, I started asking myself what have you done? Now, mind you, I have still been working through all of this, remotely, but I felt the weight of all of this time. I felt the weight of not being able to see friends,… Continue reading Things To Come
Make no mistake, the table has never been set for all Americans.This should not be a new and sudden revelation as you look at the way Native Americans were initially treated and continue to be treated and how minorities and ‘certain’ people are treated in this nation.We have never been perfect, which is fine, but… Continue reading Make No Mistake
So, what did we learn As 2020 began many of us turned to the 1920’s for inspiration for costumes and motifs to bring in a new year. Hey, new year, new you! We made our resolutions. We made our plans. We danced. We sang. We looked to a future that looked like it could still… Continue reading What Did We Learn
