I began writing before I could actually write. I would draw a battle scene with stylized stick figures on a piece of notebook paper. Then I would draw the scene over and over, a few seconds or minutes further along each time. I used different types of weapons, helmets, etc. to distinguish characters.

I worked as a music journalist and editor for several years in the 90s. It was during this period that I first wrote the story that is now published as Deadblood.

I've written short fiction and written and illustrated comic books for various indie publishers. In the early 2000s a short of my Velvet Crush comic book was published, I created the comic book 7 Squad on spec, and I sold artwork to a major card gaming company.

I have drawers and notebooks crammed with ideas, character sketches, and so forth. My problem has never been that I lacked ideas to fill my writing time, but rather that I will ultimately leave a great deal of work unfinished no matter how long I live. My big dilemma is what I should work on next. When I get stuck in a story, I just power through. I keep writing even if it's crap until I get to the next part of the story that's clear in my mind. Once I complete the first draft, no matter how bad it is, I can then go back and fix what's broken.(less)

My favorite stories are the ones that moved me or affected my thinking in a way that I can still identify as a turning point in how I look at something. I hope to be that for others at some point.(less)

Screaming Females Concert Review, Alt Daily

This isn’t the sort of thing I usually post here, but two Saturdays ago I saw a concert so great I had to write about it as soon as I got home. I sent it[image error] to Alt Daily Sunday morning and they published it straight away. I was a music journalist for quite a few years in the 90s and into the 2000s and when this got a fair amount of buzz and kind words I have to say I was both flattered a
