'Everybody loves me' by One Republic's single cover. A blue square with the name of the song and the band and a splatter-paint image of a dripping heart in white and red.

There doesn’t seem to be an official video clip for this song so I thought you should have it sung to you by Neal Caffrey. Feels just like I don’t try Look so good i might die All I know is everybody loves me

I Will Not Intentionally Tell the Truth

I don’t write about real people or real events.* But sometimes real life sneaks in anyway. In Drink Me there is a throwaway line of description halfway through. It’s a very simple sketch outline of a piece of backstory that never comes into the book. It’s one line and one of my relatives read it, […]

a heart on fire, floating above a road stretching into the distance

My fire-eating career came to an end when I could no longer tell when to spit and when to swallow. Last night in Amsterdam, 1,000 tulips burned to death. I have an alibi. When I walked by your garden, your hand grenades were in bloom. You caught me playing loves me, loves me not, metal […]

Watching this video feels like a weird kind of high school flashback. Because of the outfits. Just so we’re clear.

Important Decisions Should Not Be Based on Laziness or ‘Because it’ll Make Me Laugh’

Right now I’m trying to figure out if this new story is in third person or first and if it’s about a boy or a girl because I’ve got chunks of text in basically every permutation. When I start writing something new I tend to simply use ‘he’ and she’ because it’s the easiest way […]

The Tattoo You’ve Always Wanted

Diesel Sweeties comic. First character says, "Do you have any tattoos?" Second character says, "I'm waiting for interactive ones." Third character says, "I've had one of those for years." She holds up her palms where there is a small text box that reads: "Think about cheese. Buy cheese. Savor cheese. Compose ode to cheese. Leave majority of estate to cheesemaker's foundation." Second character says, "Yeah, but yours only has one app." Third character says, "You can also use it to remind yourself why you need to buy booze!"

Personally, I’m hanging out for ThinkGeek’s moodINQ – Programmable Tattoo System to become a reality.

I Don’t Even Know Your Name

That lyric line ‘I don’t even know your name’ seems particularly pointed right now because I’m struggling to name the characters in this new book that I may be, might be writing. This song is kinda silly and if you read it straight I have some issues with the lyrics. Also the video clip is […]

Bottle of port with the label 'DRINK ME'

Yesterday one of my readers* came over and we worked through the notes they’d given me on Drink Me. I kind of love doing that in person because it gives me the opportunity to wave my arms and roll my eyes and stick my tongue out at them when I disagree. Which I think helps […]

Camp “Fuck You, I’m a Wizard”

Piece of cardboard on which is written -- Camp 'Fuck You I'm a Wizard' Camp Rules: 1. Drinking, 2. Magic (and then there's a sketch of a pointy wizard hat and wand)

  So I’m clearly not the first to put these two ideas together… 😛

How I Start Writing a Book

September 20, 2013

I know I’m supposed to be proof reading Drink Me. Writing synopses and query letters and other practical things. Failing that, I should be editing Path, or working up this middle grade thing.* But what I have been doing is having migraine-style headaches which stop my brain from functioning. And then last Friday night I […]
