    "The Trial Chair" (short story)

    THE TRIAL CHAIR (continued) 2 Charles’ first thought as he woke in the chair: my feet are on fire. He felt heat rising upward from his ankles, up to his calves, as if his feet were, too, waking up. This same heat ran along his forearms and up to his shoulders. My hands are on fire: his...

    "The Trial Chair" (short story)

    Below is the start of a short story I've been playing with while finishing the first draft of my next novel. It's called "The Trial Chair". A friend of mine asked me to write him a short story, so here's the start of its first draft. I'll post more when more develops. Please, let me know your...

    M. Night Shyamalan

    There's just an eerie atmosphere about his movies that I like. He's one of the few writers/directors/producers whose movies I look forward to seeing months before they're out... knowing only a hint of plot, even.

    Dreaming of a Nightmare--poem

    This line doesn't quite work for me. Something about the lie, perhaps. The last line also works the tongue a bit. "Soul set sail" sounds strange if said fast. Kinda hissy, unless that was the point. How about, "To set my soul at sail" or something like that, to help the line roll off the...

    M. Night Shyamalan

    Lady in the Water Lady in the Water is in theatres July 21st (at least in the U.S.) Is anyone else as excited about this movie as I am?

    A bird crapped on my car one day...

    After work today I walked to my car, only to find it covered in white goo... again. I think it's time to write a sequel to this piece of shit.

    Stewart, have you renewed C.D. yet? It's still great, but slowly I've noticed lagging issues (months behind sometimes)...

    The Box... (a poem?)

    Teaser Trailer For Books

    I see a Simonesque fellow looking over one of my own unfinished manuscripts, sipping water from a red, blatantly-over-advertising Coca Cola glass, saying with his smug-British voice, "This is bluh'ee terrible... jus' dreadful. I'd rather mah'stubate to an unedited Chuck Palahniuk novel than...

    Gandolf and Gollum. Two of the best. They should've had children together.

    Late characters

    Late characters are fine, as long as they have purpose. Don't make them too late, or your readers will not care for them at all.
