I am a big fan of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. His “Thank You Notes” sketch is hilarious. In light of my sincere appreciation of this concept, I have decided to do a “letters” blog sketch of my own. Facebook may be a cool place for people to hangout (look at other people’s photos), catch [...]

I don’t know too many people who are happy with the current state of the world. Between wars, natural disasters, big whoopsies by large oil companies, corrupt politicians (lol), and complete lack oversight, I’d have to say that we’ve got a pretty bad infection. However getting a planet sized tube of Neosporin and a Bandaid [...]

To celebrate my third Creative Benefits of Distraction post, I’ve decided to focus on the most distracting personas – clowns.

I took a break from reading articles and method protocols to clear my mind of the fog that usually accompanies fighting sleep. So I began browsing the internet for the weird and truly insane. In my search I stumbled upon an old Huffington Post Article. I immediately began laughing at the subtle humor of the [...]

Great. Sydney thought. He had somewhere else to be. Her heart hammered away in her chest, an upper tempo [...]
So I made the mistake of eating a really BIG turkey sandwich for breakfast today. A few hours later at work, I was attacked by L-Tryptophan (W), and fought sleep mercilessly only to fall victim to a cheap shot of cranberry sauce. In efforts to regain a coherent train of thought, I began browsing the [...]

An excerpt from The Siren’s Song, my latest unfinished endeavor and the project which won NaNoWriMo 2010 for me, is posted below for your enjoyment. I love it. It’s dark and strangely seductive and I hope you’ll like it as much as I do. This hasn’t been edited and I must warn that it contains [...]
In honor of my Muse, who has been highly resistant to my attempts to win her favor again, I’ve decided to do the most contrived, predictable thing and listen to British alternative Rock Band, Muse – ALL DAY!!! And to top off my heavy serving of corniness, I’m listening to “The Resistance”. Hopefully she will [...]
