So. I have a newsletter now as a writer. I've got about 60 subscribers. This blog has about 100 subscribers, and I'm 90% sure that 90 of y'all are bots. Starting in February, I'll be closing this blog down and publishing all future blog-type content through Substack instead. Now don't worry. This website will continue … Continue reading Moving to Substack

Obligatory Weekly Blog Post
Hey, folks. Sorry this is a bit late. Been busy learning about how God is a one-armed, quarter-dragon. (Just kidding, but not really.) Not much to say this week. I prefer to post when I have something to say, but all the leading advice bloggers say to be consistent in their posting. So here's a … Continue reading Obligatory Weekly Blog Post

The Danger of Satire
Sorry for the lack of update yesterday. Sticking to this weekly schedule has been a bit of a challenge when a lot of my ideas for posts are satirical. For example, today I was thinking it might be funny to do a satirical post on America's overcrowded prisons and bloated justice system by suggesting that … Continue reading The Danger of Satire
Why Iron Man 2 is the Superior Iron Man
A lot of people jeered Iron Man 2 on its initial release. They claimed the movie focused too much on setting up the Avengers and offered little in terms of a sequel. Those people were right, but their analysis was incomplete. Current advancements in digital technology now make it possible to enjoy Iron Man 2 … Continue reading Why Iron Man 2 is the Superior Iron Man
Why I Don’t Drive
It's no secret that those without cars are second-class citizens. Not having a car in America, especially in the suburban sprawl of metro-Atlanta, makes you a pariah. People look at you funny. You're passed over for job openings, rejected as a romantic partner, and generally considered lacking in ambition, confidence, and ability. In other words, … Continue reading Why I Don’t Drive
Story-a-Week: Part the Third
You're not forgetting something. I genuinely didn't post a part one or two. But I have started writing one story a week. Because I'm a bit of a hack, I've had my friends give me some ideas for stories. I've asked them each for a character, genre, and an event. While there's been some confusion … Continue reading Story-a-Week: Part the Third
Rejected Short Stories – How The Lonely Prince Found Peace
This is one of my Jack stories. They're a series of modern fables revolving around a solitary protagonist named Jack. Sometimes Jack is a prince, other times he's just a wanderer. In this story, he's not referred to by name. This story was rejected back in 2014 as well. -- How the Lonely Prince Found … Continue reading Rejected Short Stories – How The Lonely Prince Found Peace
Rejected Short Stories – Chase the Devil
The following short story was submitted a couple of different times between 2010 and 2014. It's action-scifi. Looking back over it, there are some definite issues. It's not as character-centered as modern scifi tends to be. It's more event-centered, which isn't as popular. The main character is kind of a jerk too. Maybe that was … Continue reading Rejected Short Stories – Chase the Devil
Write One Story A Week
That's what Ray Bradbury says. It's impossible to write 52 bad stories in a row. I'm going to take him up on this. Starting this Friday, the 6th, I'll be writing one short story every week. Given that I'm an under-writer, they'll probably be quite short indeed. But that's good. I could use the practice. … Continue reading Write One Story A Week
