I’m sitting outside listening to Johnny Clarke and blowing ghosts at the sky when I hear a sound. An insect. I hear it again. More clicking than chirping. Loud. I hear it over Clarke. Again. It’s the fucking sound from Pedrator. Cool. It gets louder, moves. Now it’s…unsettling.

I knew there was sorcery involved!

Plucky? What, cutesy too pedestrian? I’ve been reading and reviewing New Directions for years and they’re one of the top publishers period.

If you’re into photography, come find me on IG. Lots of photos coming, including empty bookstores at night, empty streets, cool doors, awesome architecture, a beheaded doll, and other wonders.

Had a clear idea for a novel today. That’s fucking RARE. Don’t get me wrong, I have a ton of ideas. Most are garbage—toothless, from the wrong gods, normal, more versions of Jaws, etc. Clear ones? Bigfoot sighting. Anyway, bestselling tech thriller/horror novel or…nothing.
