A few years ago, I finished a YA book about a group of kids fighting back against an authoritarian government. I hung on to it, unsure when would be the right time to publish such a thing. Well, here we are. Hooray? Coming this spring: my latest novel, a dark comedy/dystopian thriller GAZOON HEIST.

David Lynch gave us the language we needed to better articulate the indescribable strangeness of our shared reality. “Lynchian” is so overused because it’s a viscerally understandable word without any known synonyms. I can’t imagine a more beautiful artistic legacy than that.

I was offering a friend advice on how to self publish his book, but he was so overwhelmed with everything he just asked if he could pay me to do it for him. It's been a fun project. It's cool working on something that isn't mine. Anyway, Mr. Pants Press will soon have a new release!

My daughter made the mistake of sleeping in on a school day and asking me to make her sandwich. The result? My most #evilsandwich yet! #dadsrevenge

Song stuck in my head for the past few days: Madonna's 1986 smash hit: Papa Don't Preach. Also the video, which is unusual for me. So my mind is occasionally filled with images of a frustrated Danny Aiello. I guess there are worse things. #madonna #dannyaiello
