Three Poems

I’m procrastinating on all those bold, fantastic new things I want to do for this blog. I swear I’m going to work on it. Eventually. Pinterest, sobbing over a Tumblr of NyQuil, peculiar women and...

Stuck in Carmelita Park

I liked how the Kony piece came out. I have a couple more ideas along those lines kicking around. I just can’t seem to focus on them right now. My mind wants to go a bit further than that, and my body,...

At Least The Pooch Had Fun: My Interview With Patton Oswalt

Angels Aware of Pennies

It could just be that it doesn’t take a lot to make me depressed. I don’t know why I dread my birthday so much. I’ve had a few that would qualify pretty quickly and aggressively as goddamn awful, but...

After the War: Sample Chapter

I probably shouldn’t even pretend I’m ever going to get around to anything else for this blog besides orphan short stories and poetry. I know there aren’t going to be any movie reviews on here anytime...

Four Poems

No, no, the blog is not quite dead yet. Should it be? Ah, that’s an awfully good question. I guess I’m being stubborn about it. There are worse things in the world to drag my feet over, and refusing to...

Thirty-Day Movie Challenge: Day Twenty-Nine

Being miserable but still wanting to work is frustrating sometimes. I’m not at a loss for things I’d like to write and rant about. Fifteen minutes on any reputable news site or blog yields just as many...
