edit data

K. N. Parker is a simple AWARD-WINNING author in his thirties, and was born and raised in Los Angeles, California.

He has three self-published works which, for the most part, people think are pretty nifty.

He is currently working on two full-length novels and a script.

He shares heritages with two countries: America and Japan, and he spends his time between the two whenever possible. When in his late teens he thought it proper to teach himself Japanese, and so he did, and now can communicate with you in two ways, if applicable. When not writing or creating trouble in various coffee shops throughout the world, he enjoys graphic design, television, film, and absurdist, subtle, and very sarcastic comedy.

He also likes dogs.

I subconsciously harassed a woman and that's not okay

Unfathomable. Unbelievable. Despicable. Unconscionable. Pick one negative adjective. Pick them all. They all fit snuggly into this shit-sandwich-shaped story we've all been audience to these past few weeks. This whole story starting with Harvey Weinstein (at least the current version of it) is out of hand and very horrible, a gross understatement, I know. But it didn't hit me how horrible it w Read more of this blog post »

“Skepsis. I am a true skeptic, born under the noble sign of skepsis, the sign of the man who knows that all astrology is absolutely and without reservation the bullest of bullsh*t that ever there was. It is a senseless delusion that does not even have the benefit of being harmless fun. It is a harmful bore. Harmful to the human spirit, harmful to the dignity and wonder of the real universe and the real power of the mind to think for itself. I hate astrology with a fervor that is almost frightening. - Stephen Fry (when asked what sign he would be if he could create his own zodiac)”

“A philosopher once asked, "Are we human because we gaze at the stars, or do we gaze at them because we are human?" Pointless, really..."Do the stars gaze back?" Now, that's a question.”
