The Way of the Con

About Me

Everyone has something to say. Some strive to tell the world. Others won’t share their ideas. I’m somewhere in the middle.

I enjoy writing and the process of discovery, both in personal growth and story creation. What I don’t enjoy though is the struggle to get published. I rather despise the process of submitting my work. I hate the rejection even worse than that. But if I want to share my ideas, I’ve got to push through this process, right?

I think it’s funny that I admit this now since for the past four years or so I’ve been a salesman of sorts. Wouldn’t I be comfortable with selling my works based upon the skills I’ve gained through my job? Well, I should be. Maybe I need to do some reflecting on that.

I’d share a bunch of crap about who I am and where I came from, but you wouldn’t really care now would you? Why don’t we just say I’m a normal guy who writes stories? A guy who occasionally writes stories. Okay, a guy who writes stories once in a blue-fucking-moon.

Why are you busting my balls?

Blog

Stop by the rantings section for a peek at my blog. I'm horrible at updating it in a timely manner so don't expect much and you won't be disappointed.

Web Sites

The Way of the Con - Yeah, I did this.

A Cruel World - now defunct. I tried my hand at an on-line 'zine and was horrible at time management. I still have the rights to the URL and sometimes I think about making another run at it.

Spokane Police Guild - a union website. Not much to see unless you've got the password.

The Arcade Experience - a website to commemorate building my home arcade with my friend, Steve. Not much new here, so one visit should be enough.

Grifter's Acid Music Page - a funky little page I built to show of my ACID (PC) / Garage Band (iMac) music. There's some weird tunes here, but I wanted to try something new.

The NFL Reading Kit fan website - a small fan page to show some appreciation to the reading kit the NFL and Educational Insights created during the 70's and 80's.
