The story of Fan-Frickin-Tastic I started this story in the spring of 2020, when I and my family were under lockdowns. I wrote a few chapters, then I set it aside. It wasn't until I got into cryptoart and NFTs did it occur to me to publish the stories as an...

I’m Not Fast
I'm a much faster thinker than doer. Lots of times, I feel like I can't keep up with my thoughts. I forget the metaphor Buddhists use for a wild mind, but it's something involving a large and dangerous mammal. They might refer to it as a raging, wild elephant or...
Announcing TokenScope.org
I recently started making non-fungible tokens, (NFTs) on the Ethereum blockchain. There's a whole ecosystem for them, and most of the tools / sites that let you interact with them are visual-heavy. That makes sense; Cryptokitties and Punks were some of the first...
Crypto-collectible NFT Story Serials!

I released my first series of novels in 2017 a series called "infinite vampire". I invested a lot of money, time, and effort into the book's creation. I had high hopes for how sales would perform, and delusions of how I would be a breakout novelist. Unfortunately my...

Freestyle Haiku
Back in 2010, I went through an extraordinarily painful event. My high school sweetheart and I, who had gotten married in 2003, split up and got a divorce. In the beginning of that painful process, my emotions were difficult to understand and control, and they had a...
Announcing my new series: Trashy Romance!
I'm not going to lie; I thought the idea of a sexy romance story–a trashy romance story, I should say–involving a trash collection worker was hilarious. So, I toyed with the idea of writing such a story by developing some character profiles. I got more and more...
