About this author
I spent the first half of this past February 14 watching my grandmother take her last labored breaths before going off to the great beyond.

Description:
This is chapter one of my second novel, for which I am currently seeking a publisher or literary agent. It's all about mathematics and prison. It's OZ for geniuses. Yes, it's got shower rapes AND advanced game theoretical analysis, all in one package. If any agents or publishers stumble across this and are interested in seeing more please contact me.

Description:
This appeared in <i>Chess Life</i> about ten years ago. It was the first piece of writing I ever sold. They gave me $150. I was ecstatic. In my humble opinion, I think it's pretty funny. Chess players especially should enjoy it, I hope. Thanks for reading. Hope you like it.
