WARHEAD: ALIEN AGENT is my 2025 book project! Grew up loving and reading spy stories and films, and hope you'll give this a look when the time comes next year. All the tropes are here, megalomaniacal villains, deadly femme fatales, exotic locations and cool gadgets. Check it out when it hits!
I met the great Floyd Norman during my first stint at Disney Feature Animation, and was struck at his kindness, his dignity, his humanity and his incredible resume. Super grateful to get this quote for my new book!

Siempre he agradecido el apoyo de John a mis proyectos. Es irónico, ya que sus películas me influyeron profundamente. Cuando le he comentado esto a Landis, sonríe con gratitud antes de soltar una broma, que es muy propio de él.

I've always appreciated John's support of my stuff. Ironic since his films so deeply influenced me. When I've told Landis this, he smiles gratefully before cracking a joke, which is his style. Hit the link below to see the why and how of my very personal, very cool new book project.

The process in creature design for motion pictures, television or animation is to create many different versions of the character in order to give the director/producer/studio enough variety so they can pick the direction they'd like to go in. Hit the link below to join me on this journey.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

My childhood trips to Costa Rica were chock full of rosaries, early morning masses and holy hours, most of which this monster-loving kid found mundane and tedious. Yet I did watch the Hammer DRACULA films and the TV sho DARK SHADOWS dubbed in Spanish. Hit the link below to order your copy!

It is a fact that in Costa Rica, burial occurs the very next day after death, with few exceptions. Rarely are autopsies or cremations preformed, the cadaver is put into the ground as-is. Learn about this and other interesting facts in my new historical horror story by hitting the link below!

Voted for the Oscars as a first-year member of the Motion Picture Academy. Not bad for the son of immigrants and this former Target cart attendant. Live your dreams. I sure have.
