I got together with a few friends to read Cherry Kills by Sean Thomas McDonnell. (When Cherry's imaginary friends start interacting with the real world, adventure ensues.) This is the result.

A live community reading of Cherry Kills — punk art, noir energy, and friends experiencing the story together in real time.
A new Ask the Bard in which I tackle the question of knowing when it's time for a retcon, how to handle it, and what in the world it even REALLY is!
You don't need to start over, you just need to know the tools available.

In my new narrative essay I tackle the lineage of literary trickery from Shakespeare through Carroll to Seuss.

Most writers treat worldbuilding like a scrapbook — maps, vibes, aesthetics, lore dumps, Pinterest boards. Pretty, but passive. Decorative. Harmless.
But a story world isn’t decoration. It’s pressure.
In a new essay, I explain how Batman has evolved from comic detective to artwork.

Under promise, over deliver. Limited run. High quality. Book-as-art. These are the cornerstones of what we bring to the table as an independent publisher in the physical book space.

Three siblings. One cursed magic trick.
A mirror that takes but doesn’t return.
When 12‑year‑old Cora vanishes inside a magician’s cabinet, her twin Callista is the only one who can still see her—trapped in the glass, begging.

You shit on that TradPub life.
You scream INDIE 4-EVA!
But where are you when an indie micro-press is running a punk-as-fuck "rent party"-style novella publishing initiative??
121/150 pages are sold.
Unless all 150 pages are sponsored, the novella will never see the light of day.
Put your money where your mouth is. For $15 own a piece of punk publishing history and unlock the gate to a collectible art piece.

If you have any questions contact me: [email protected] Our lease ends March 19, 2026. After we involved the City over serious safety/code issues, the landlord “non-renewed” us the next day, which is soft retaliation but not actionable. No eviction means no Legal Aid and no help. Attorneys won’t touch us. We're trying to close the housing gap the only way we can: by turning the panic into a limited-run artifact people can point to and say "I have one and you never will!". Television Sky New Year Letters = my anti–Christmas letter: an inverted “wonderful year” report from inside housing instability, inside a psych ward, or inside another universe. How it works - $15: You claim a numbered New Year Letter + card + a page from a novella (hand-signed/inscribed; limited run) - $35: THE PREVIOUS + a bubble mailer of weird ephemera. - $50+ = gift box (more/rarer/stranger stuff). The Ghost Book (goal: 150 letters) If we sell 150 I’ll print the full novella as a one-time, no-reprint edition: - hand-signed + numbered, scribbled in, painted on, WHO KNOWS - only available to card-holders - no ebook / no POD / no ISBN / NO UPC (miss it = miss it) To claim yours and help keep my family off the fucking streets because my 74 year old moms doesn't deserve this (me, maybe, her, NEVER): fill out the form and I'll email you as soon as I see it Scroll down for examples of what you're getting, and past that, if you want us to stay housed, fill out the full form. Thank you.
