Yep. I’m still out here. Still struggling… but any spare time I’ve had for writing has been eaten up by freelance copy stuff… such deep meaningful profundity as

Still, it brings home the groceries, and it keeps my wrists nimble and my fingers full of tensile strength (That’s what she said!).

Humblest apologies for the whistling wind and lonely tumbleweeds rollin’ on through this page for the last, oh, 6 months… Between the ridiculous day job, the movie site and what little time I have left over for my family, I have sorely neglected my sub-pseudo-almost-career-attempt at serious writing. I hope to get back in the swing soon and have some very cool genre ideas I have been throwing around. These are most likely for a suggested ‘comic-book’ project with my old pal Lou Girardo, artist extraordinaire.
Suffice it to say, details and stories will follow once I’ve had a chance to work on them. Don’t give up on me yet, I’m still thinking, still plotting and scheming and still biding my time in preparation for the Rapture – that, of course, being the day I ‘make it’, just as the world is coming to an end.
This is a short story I’ve been working out for a contest with McSweeney’s. Derived from one of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s notebook entries, it has gone from ‘A Prince goes to Hollywood and is stuck only playing Princes…” to what follows. I am also working on a novel treatment based on this story.
