RECENT STUFF
The Emperor’s New Tomato Ketchup
That there was a convoy of murderers and rapists who wanted the Heinz ketchup—The Emperor could understand. He could commiserate, for he himself enjoyed the Heinz Ketchup. He was not without feeling, The Emperor. Push him far enough he too might murder for the Heinz ketchup. He didn’t require threats to his ketchup to rape.

I Love You
A memory’s trip with modern implications
I was born in the Midwest and have spent the past twenty-plus years in the Pacific Northwest.
I’m usually working on something that I promise one day will be completed. In the meantime, I use this space to post essays, jotted notions and other random thoughts.
I also do commerical work — samples of various projects can be found in my Portfolio.
