CREATIVE NON-FICTION STORY PUBLISHED AT VIS A TERGO

vis a tergo, the fine folks who brought you Maastricht Coffee Shop, has recently published a creative non-fiction story I wrote about maybe the craziest night of my life. I'd tell you all about it here, but then you wouldn't want to click here.

ANOTHER POEM PUBLISHED AT BURNING SHORE REVIEW

Long Beach's Burning Shore Review has published another one of my poems. I'm very excited because it's always exciting to publish a poem, but this time is even more so. First, the guy who runs BSR is a good guy who never laughs when I order shitty beer. Second, I forgot all about this poem and found it by chance. I was digging through my files, looking for something else, when I came across it. A few days later, it was on the Intranets!

MORE ON BLAST STUFF IN THE LA WEEKLY

I really like On Blast. I also really like the LA Weekly. So as you can imagine, it's pretty awesome to cover the band for the esteemed publication.

DAN PIRARO INTERVIEW IN VEGETARIAN TIMES

In 2009, I was incredibly honored to have a Q&A featured in Vegetarian Times. The story was on Dan Piraro, the creator of the comic strip Bizarro. Like me, Piraro is a vegan, so needless to say, we were both excited to be part of Vegetarian Times.

In other VT news, I recently interviewed cartoonist Patrick McDonnell, who created Mutts. That should run mid-2010.

INSPIRATIONAL STORY IN LONG BEACH MAGAZINE

So 2009 wasn't such a great year. One of these days, I'll write a book about the experiences (which included a panic attack, anxiety attacks, claustrophobia and agoraphobia), but in the meantime you can check out this story I wrote for Long Beach Magazine. It details briefly a bit of what I went through and how I got to ride on a zeppelin.

VEGASMAS IN BLACKBOOK

I'm very excited to see my name once again associated with BlackBook Magazine. About a year ago, I wrote a story about the Kennedy School in Portland. And recently, I wrote a story for the online version about my trip to Las Vegas last Christmas.

Peep it here.

THREE PART SERIES IN THE LA WEEKLY

I was lucky enough to travel to Mexico City with a Long Beach band called On Blast. The group played the initial Goliath Festival and the LA Weekly allowed me to write about my experience. Check out the three-part series below.
