99 Cent deal for The Fields!
Phew! The past few weeks have been a whirlwind on my end, so I apologize for not having said anything too substantial on here. I’ve been diving into a new manuscript, working on writing a musical, and getting ready for a few different events. But I have also been working on something for you all.…

I’ve got reviews!
Since releasing The Fields at the end of December, I guess the logical next step was for people to start reading the book. Man, was that a hard thing to be patient about. When you work on something for so long, and you worry about it being enjoyable and legible, it can be pretty unnerving…

The Fields: Print Copies Now Available for Pre-Order!
That’s right. The pre-order is up on both Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Amazon offers both e-book and print, and Barnes and Noble offers just the print version. This is such a weird experience. Having a book available at all, let alone for both print and e-book, is such a foreign concept. Enjoy, everyone! The release…

You can order it now and then forget about it til the release date (December 30th) rolls around. Eventually I’ll get print…

My Bye Week
This past couple of weeks have mostly been bogged down by political commentary and busyness, so instead of trying to come up with something uplifting to write, I have instead decided to focus on site maintenance and uploading old high school films to the Internet. If any of you want to see a bunch of kids…

Review: THE INNOCENTS
“Faith is 24 hours of doubt and one minute of hope.” This honest description comes from a woman wracked with trauma and hiding in secrecy — from a nun, in fact. Director Anna Fontaine’s THE INNOCENTS explores a too-real, overwhelmingly solemn experience, based on real events, which hope to remind us of the truth behind…

Review: THE HOLLARS
He gave us BRIEF INTERVIEWS WITH HIDEOUS MEN back in 2009, and as many directorial debuts can be, the result was uneven and lacking in authority. Now, John Krasinski has helmed another film, and while THE HOLLARS is endearing, it doesn’t show a lot of growth in direction. John Hollar (Krasinski) has an eccentric family.…
