my fiction...
These are my babies. They didn't spring forth from my loins but from the twisted, fetid corners of my imagination. Some of them were stillborn, all of them marred with defects, but they're my babies nonetheless.
Note: because of first-time publishing rights, some of these stories will not be posted in their entirety but in excerpts.

Armageddon helps a cross-dresser get sassy.

Last Chance to Evacuate Planet Earth Before It Is Recycled (coming soon)
Occasionally my fiction is inspired inspired by music. This eponymously-titled piece was inspired by the band Porcupine Tree. I might've channeled Ted Kaczynski while writing this (by way of Dennis Leary impersonating a Luddite).
Most Sacred Burning Heart of Bernie Berkowitz
At least half of the kids in my graduating Catholic high school class were Jewish. Oi Vey.

Untitled (excerpt)
This was my response after reading another writer's incredibly dumb and cliched alien invasion story.
