Today the web magazine Reality Sandwich published a second excerpt from my upcoming book All These Serious Faces Will Only Drive You Mad. I created the essay from a portion of my second chapter. The piece is called “The Not-So-Comfortable Concentration Camp,” which is a slight spin on a phrase that Betty Friedan used in her book The Feminine Mystique. Her book helped launch the second-wave feminist movement of the 1960s that demanded more rights for women in the home, the workplace, and elsewhere in society. (more…)

A Supraterranean Manifesto

Exciting news! On July 16 my essay “A Supraterranean Manifesto” was published on Reality Sandwich, the web magazine connected with the progressive social network Evolver (click here to visit my profile on Evolver).

I’m thrilled about this because I haven’t done anything but self-publish my creative work since late 2008. As you may have seen, I’ve self-published various essays and videos on Supraterranean and my Refractor blog in the time since.

What’s even better is that they didn’t alter or edit the essay before publishing it! It’s about 4,300 words long, but if you have a moment, please check it out.
