While the ever-in-progress novel does command some of my attention, I have also completed some other projects recently, and have others in the beginning stages as well.
1) Another Temporary Export - this book utilizes my 2011-2012 article series from "The Noise", detailing my March 2011 trip to Italy and Greece. In the book, I make a few minor edits and add some new pics.
2) Last of the Angst - a "reprint" of an unpublished book of free-verse poetry I bubbled out between 1999-2000. Upon a reread, I find, while I have moved beyond many of the themes within, they still resound as universal human themes and ideologies in some cases, pure neuroses in others.
3) The Stew - a second volume of these free-verse poems and babblings from the same timeframe as Last of the Angst.
I currently have two other books in the works:
4) Untitled 2013 trip journal - this is in the same vein as #1 (Another Temporary Export), detailing my trip to Europe in 2013. It was never written up as an article series, but will likely follow the same pattern as the first book (and hopefully be as interesting!)
5) ghosts. - this book details my start into the odd pursuit of dead towns, my friends who joined me along the way, and some sights that disappeared into memory since I last witnessed them.
Anyone who wishes to purchase these books will be able to find them on Amazon.com in their physical form, on blurb.com in either hard copy or PDF, and at least one of them on the Apple iBook store in ebook form.
I appreciate all who have helped me to spread the word on these, and hope to crank out more interesting stuff in the future. Keep an eye out here for any news on current/new projects.
