Become a Patron of my cyberpunk work on Patreon

Those who have been paying attention to the Bridge Chronicles site for my cyberpunk series will notice that the whole site has been given a facelift. It’s been high time I made that site over as I hadn’t changed the look since releasing The Long and the Short Swords, almost two years ago. Part of […]

Reamde by Neal Stephenson Review

I’m a huge fan of Neal Stephenson’s work. Snow Crash is one of those books that has had a huge effect on my own writing and remains one of my all-time favorite novels. In addition, I’m a longtime player of MMOG’s like the one Stephenson describes in this book, T’Rain. The concept of one of […]

Ebola – A Case for Collectivism

The big news this week is that finally, at long last, an actual case of ebola has made its way to America. The “doomsday” scenario of countless movies and books has come to pass and the news media has been gleefully shitting its pants ever since. Their attempts to spread fear and despair have so […]

Why do Dead Dogs Matter More than Battered Women to the NFL?

Unless you’ve been under a rock the last three days, you’ve probably seen the video of Ray Rice smacking the ever-living shit out of his then-fiancee in a casino elevator. Even if you aren’t into football, you have probably been exposed to this sordid story of domestic violence and corporate ineptitude. It highlights a major problem […]

In the aftermath of yet another of the all-too-regular tragedies we seem to have in this country, the Internet and various mass media outlets are engaging in yet another debate. I’m speaking of course about the horrible deaths of seven in Santa Barbara by Elliot Rodger. I’ve barely been involved with news media this holiday weekend, […]

Vote for my remix on Indaba Music

I’ve recently submitted a remix for a contest on Indaba Music, the indie music/remixing site. How to Destroy Angels is Trent Reznor’s post-Nine Inch Nails project. When I saw that they were offering three tracks for remixing opportunities, I jumped at the chance. I’ve always loved Reznor’s music and remixing a track sounded like fun. […]

Into Familiarity – Star Trek Into Darkness Movie Review

While I am a lifelong fan of the original Star Trek TV series and movies, as well as an occasional viewer of the spinoffs up until the abortion that was Voyager, I could never claim to be a Trekkie of any sort. I am, however, well-versed in the lore and hold the adventures of Captain […]
