Orgone
I’m proud to announce that the first draft of ORGONE, the companion novella to STATIC, is now complete. What happens next? Next, I edit, edit better, and edit until I feel ready to release myself from the folds of the book. It’s a wild ride, a true tribute to Alejandro Jodorowsky and kaiju fiction. My […]

Domo ArigaDIE!!! – Day 26 – Video Curation: David Carradine’s Tai Chi Workout (#DomoArigaDIE!!!)
