#introduction

Primarily I write #ScienceFiction and #humor, but I've also written darkly comic stuff, fabulist satire, and some literary fiction. Once I blogged squibs, screeds and other drivel (some pure & some quite tainted with meaning.)

My cats keep me sane(ish).

If you want to understand my rich inner life, I recommend this #book: Alpha Max.

Occasionally pimp some of the others.

It occurs to me that many of my fellow tootsies may enjoy my 2012 novel, The Fridgularity. It's about a web-enabled fridge taking over the internet and all other digital technology. It's a dozen years old, but I think it holds up pretty well.

Musical #satire: " Oct 1, 2024
Parody Project's very first post, from 2017. It is somewhat disturbing that six years later it is still completely relevant and accurate, with the possible exception that Fox isn't quite as enthusiastic about him after their multi-million dollar fine. One would have hoped that by now it would be obsolete. Art Garfunkel played by Don Caron; Paul Simon played by Linda Gower."

Snip from a Tom Tomorrow cartoon: Header: and MAGA voters are unconcerned. Two guys talking: Guy 1: Of course I'm voting for the brain-eating aliens! It's not like they're going to ever eat MY brain! Other guy: This is REALLY gonna trigger the libs!! Guy 1: Their tears will be as delicious as their brains are said to be? But then --- (the brain-eating alien appears) Guy 1: WAIT!! You said I'd be safe! Alien: LOL! You knew I was a brain-eating alien when you took me in!

I don't write horror, but there is a strong #Halloween vibe in this novel, which won an IRDC award for best humor in 2013.

The Fridgularity us about an AI becoming self aware, taking over all digital technology, and only wanting to talk to one dude (a frustrated web designer) through his web enabled fridge.

(Yes, that's a raven on top of the fridge.)
