Description
It's a supernatural mystery, shweetheart! Set in a fictitious Great Lakes city, SO DARK THE NIGHT features two of the most charming and engaging crime fighters since Holmes and Watson roamed the foggy streets of Victorian London. This novel is an homage to film noir and H.P. Lovecraft, the funniest, scariest, sexiest read you're likely to come across...

Y’know, I really feel for folks who don’t like poetry or claim not to understand it. I wonder if they have any idea what they’re missing. Because there’s something perfect and sublime in the best poems, the way they examine subject matter from a point of view denied the rest of us, and how that […]
Sherron and I each take a unique approach to our respective disciplines. She employs found objects, invented mythologies, and sheer whimsy to concoct fairy tales exploring the magical aspects of the natural world, the spirits infusing boreal forests, ancient river valleys and the place where the ice meets the sea. As for me, well, I’ve […]
Haven’t done this for awhile: posting a short ambient piece I rediscovered when I was cleaning out my GarageBand files this afternoon. Tweaked it a bit and now think it would make a cool opening theme for some Michael Mann-like techno thriller, set in a glittering, lethal near future. I call it “Damage Collector”. Soundtrack […]
Yes, I’ve been ensconced in my office-slash-recording studio, concocting more strange music with no audience or venue in mind. Just fucking around on my MIDI keyboard and seeing what I can come up with. Quite pleased by this latest batch o’ tunes, especially the very first cut, “Ominous IV”, which wouldn’t be out of place […]
In my latest book, Mouth: Rants and Routines, there’s a particularly virulent diatribe against idiots. You know, people with the minds of boll weevils and the imagination of stone outcroppings. I am not tolerant when it comes to morons; in point of fact, I eat them alive. I floated my mini-essay “Stupid People: A Case […]
Actually, there are a couple of milestones to mention: I turned 55 this past week and this happens to be my 500th blog post. Time to celebrate. Today I’ve posted a new album on my BandCamp page, over forty minutes of original music, titled Non nobis solum (“Not for ourselves alone”). You can find the […]
Below you’ll find a 4-5 minute audio clip I created around some poems from my latest Black Dog Press release, The Algebra of Inequality. I added some background music tracks for dramatic effect and I think this performance is an excellent teaser for the book. If you want to hear audio renditions of more poems […]
