I. Inspiration Several years ago, I stumbled across an odd, surrealist take on Sleeping Beauty called Briar Rose by Robert Coover. It was a post-modern retelling of the folktale that went well beyond the usual princess - prince - curse - one true love conquers all trope; in fact, it was a bitterly humorous take...

I’m basically a shy person, so this part kills me. Lol. I learned at an early age to cover my shyness with something. At first, it was hiding in shadows, dressing in black, slipping on the leather and kind of using it in my mind as a second skin. But people kept laughing at anything... Continue Reading →

I need coffee. Seriously. It’s a need. A daily need. Hell, I can have a triple espresso and then go nap. In fact, I knew I hadn’t enough coffee when I started writing this because I just typed tripe instead of triple. Nothing adds to coffee like cleaned out cow stomach. I apparently also need...
