On my creative process…
A giant shift in perspective for me was when I realized that creation never stops. The constant reconfiguration of matter and energy will always force a new arrangement of what came before. I think we have a big say in how we direct this creation. We can even create the illusion of perpetuity, although I’d…

A zany and profane ad for my paperbacks for the Unbound Realm
What the dick-print is happening, my fellow cucumber-sized cock-floppers who attract longing stares, reddened faces, and wannabe devotees who grab your ankles and plead, “Teach me the ways!” whenever you wear basketball shorts or snug tight jeans, one day you push it too far and go cock-mad with power when you’re standing in front of…

I suspect there’s a difference between negativity that naturally arises, without any prompting or deliberation, and negativity that arises through willful focus. I suspect natural negativity is meant to be internally felt and allowed, if not externally expressed (if we always expressed it externally, it could destroy relationships or send us to prison). And, once…

In some cases, I suspect writer’s block may be a blessing in disguise. I believe there’s times when a deeper part of myself knows I have more to experience, more to process, before I can fully articulate it on the page.

A zany and profane ad for my paperbacks for the Unbound Realm
“BY THE GODS!” Aragorn busts into the room and unsheathes Anduril, right as I retract four of eight inches out from Arwen. “Quickly, Man Whore!” She grabs a blanket and covers up. “Fuck off with haste!” I pitch backward just in time—Aragorn’s blade streaks past my face. “Large-membered dastard!” His face twists in hate. “I’LL…

Every now and then, a climactic scene will hit me out of the blue. That’s where the idea for a book will start–I just have to figure out how to write my way to that scene. Inconveniently enough, it always happens when I’m in the middle of writing a book, so it goes in my…

What the gunt-strike is happening, all you folks who’re on rollerskates or skateboards or some other form of freewheeling fun where you’re suddenly inspired to leap over a pole or onto a railing but you severely misjudge it and WHUNG, that shit hits you right in the middle of the fucking gunt right between the…

If information is like raw food, I believe stylistic trappings–pace, rhythm, and often cultural context–are what allows it to be cooked, seasoned, and enjoyed as entertainment. In writing, stylistic trappings are word choice, tone, perspective, etcetera. However, I think a compelling style defies an established checklist–Tarantino consistently uses outdated styles, and nobody saw Kpop Demon…
