TV Rots Your Mind Grapes: Monster of the Week

“Monster of the Week” was a weekly column about all things sci-fi on television. Recently, a technical problem wiped out most of the archives, but the lovely ladies who run the site tell me that at least some of the old articles will be reposted soon. Fingers crossed!

I’ve also maintained a LiveJournal since 2002 and of course there’s the blog on this site, but you already knew about that.

Stageplays & Screenplays

Untitled Teen Movie (1999)
Magic Sushi (one-act, 2002)

Marketing and Miscellaneous

I also write tons of marketing copy, including website copy, email, and social media posts. I wrote the copy for this game board, designed for a promotional contest I co-developed. And there’s plenty of ad copy here, on the art & design page.

I wrote several half-finished comic books and I’m featured in a biography of Neil Gaiman. You can learn more about my comic projects here.

I’ve also written a great many Post-it notes, diary entries, and credit card signatures, although I find it increasingly challenging to get anyone to pay me for those.
