The High Water trilogy is complete
Wow! It’s been a few years of putting this together, and now we’re complete. It feels good.
HIGH WATER, PART 3: HANG EM HIGH!
This series started with an idea: what would a bunch of kung fu loving stoners do in a zombie apocalypse?

Weird Weed is live! Strange stoner stories

Inside Weird Weed, you’ll find short stories about 19th century Jamaica, space travel...

[Analysis] Hit it or get off the Pot, or, Putting the P in Pot
Who says basic research is dead?
NIH is funding a three year study in Washington state to measure the amount of metabolized cannabinoids in the sewer system. This shitty job will be done by the University of Puget Sound, because who else would do it?
Consumers of cannabis defecate some of the psychoactive ingredients in the plant. Everyone knows this. The drug testing industry made oodles once it was discovered that you could ruin someone’s life over the content of their pee. The university r...

I’ve been very busy writing instead of blogging, because if I have time for one, I will focus on the writing.
In my spare time, I’ve been finishing up the PAPERBACK VERSION of High Water.

Honeybees: Dumping the bees
Hey everyone! While I’ll been very busy on my short story collection and my next novel, plus the final book in the High Water series, I’ve also been raising bees. Why not have more hobbies than you can healthily manage?

Rather than rehashing everything I needed to know about bees before installation, I thought I’d write about what I learned...
