You might recall earlier this month I discussed the pussification of vampires in the form of Twilight, and explored what led up to this. Zombies have a similar problem, or did until about five years ago. To me zombies never lost their fright factor, in fact nothing terrifies me more than the prospect of reanimated [...]

I remember when I used my first swear word, and the thorough beating that ensued. I won’t lie, I was a foul-mouthed little fucker. . . still am. What!? Anyway, what I don’t remember is being as bad as some of these kids running around today. Your over use of the almighty F-Bomb does not [...]

Apparently our current topic of Armageddon and the after effects made for great inspirational material, because last night I completed the origin story of the main character of my post-apocalyptic series “The Weller.” Today I’m putting the ol’ red ink pen to the 26 page manuscript for “The Weller: Crimson Sands.” Last time I asked [...]

I just got an email from Coscom Entertainment editor A.P. Fuchs with the Table of Contents for Vicious Verses & Reanimated Rhymes: Zany Zombie Poetry for the Undead Head. The book contains three haiku by myself as well as poetry from my friends Kevin Lucia and Sheldon S. Higdon. I’m told the book will be [...]

Yesterday I asked my readers to share their thoughts on the end of the world, and just how they think it could all come to an end. I got some really good responses. Let’s discuss the possibilities: 1. Biblical Armageddon – Certainly belief in the biblical end times described in the Book of Revelations is [...]

I’ve been kicking around ideas today for the new Weller short story I’ve been working on, and I got to thinking about the Post-Apocalyptic sci-fi genre. This led to to think about how the world/civilization might end. Of course there’s always nuclear war, that’s always hanging over our heads. In fact, I use it as [...]

If you came to my house and opened up all of my gaming consoles, chances are you’ll find a Final Fantasy title in at least two of them on any given day. I, along with many other American gamers, owe this obsession to 1997′s Final Fantasy VII on the Sony Playstation. Of course we had [...]

PC gaming. Sometimes I like to just shove the manuscripts aside and log on to PWN some n00bs for a couple hours. I tend to crank Breaking Benjamin or V Shape Mind while I play though so I don’t have to listen to some seven-year-old whine and scream when he should be taking out the [...]

Hey, folks. First I’d like to thank everyone that visits the blog, especially to those that comment and vote in the polls. I’ve decided I’m going to make the blog a Monday-Friday thing, reserving the weekends for work on novels and short stories since those are the days when I get the most done. Plus [...]

Let me start by saying that I DO NOT smoke. I have smoked a grand total of two cigarettes in my lifetime, and I didn’t particularly enjoy either one. I smoked the first on the day my beloved Monte Carlo bit the dust on the side of the road ten years ago. The second was [...]
