SHADOWLAND: A Sequel in Progress (Book Update)
VOLUME 2 in The Shadowland Saga. The sequel to my acclaimed, award-winning debut novel: The Cat's Maw. Whispers from beyond the veil have been a long time coming...and you're just gonna have to wait a little longer. Is it out of fear? Procrastination? Laziness? Writer's block? Perfectionism?

TIL DEATH DO US PART — A Love That Transcends Space, Time, and Species
Dear Quinn...Do you remember when we met? I sure do. I'd been having a rough go of things, and was hobbled by a nasty stretch of bad choices and negative thinking. A good friend asked if I had ever had a pet. I said yes, of course — CATS! — but that I didn't feel quite ready yet for a 'commitment'.

PATTERNS = Memos from the Muse
In my creative and my personal life, I see patterns. Something as seemingly random as a rush hour commute with all-green-light intersections takes on prophetic business meaning...
On Napster, the Creative Class, and the Future of FREE...
I was catching up on eps of Silicon Valley the other day. I love the show. My tech and venture capital pals assure me that the portrayal is pretty much an accurate one. And, as I watched the latest, I was reminded of something I used to ponder often. Specifically, when the douchey, monied bro' below spouted the following: 'I put Radio...on the Internet.'
READY? AIM! BRAIN BULLETS FIRED!
If you've written a cool story, chances are that it's chock full of interesting ideas. Pithy observations. Humorous tangents. Snappy dialogue. The whole damn gamut. And if these snippets are crisp enough, while still maintaining the core brand message with a complementary image?
