On Importance
I've been writing novels since 1999 - seventeen years now, and I like to think I've gotten better. My first book was written in the shadow of an old relationship that faltered and in the brightness of a new relationship that seemed to be working out. Shawn's also been seventeen years now, so that's been kind of tidy.

Why I Blitzen
All right! A few (many) people have written to me and asked, "Hey Kev, what's the deal with you and Blitzen Trapper? Why are you writing a book about them? Why should I care about your Kickstarter?"
Awhile back, my friend Paul Chapman made a mix CD with the song "Furr" on it. I fell in love with it, because I apparently love songs about werewolves ( ( Read more... ) -
BLITZ THIS
Hello all!
Once more on my book! Onbly 6 more days until the hype is over and the book - hopefully - becomes a reality. It's a passion book for me, sprung completely out of my love for this band. I hope to do a whole heck of a lot of research and intense reading about the guys (including interviews!) to make this book accessible, fun, and academic ( Read more... ) -
New Kickstarter! First Nonfiction book!
You guys know I'm writing a book about Blitzen Trapper, right? It's going to be a slim little volume about the album FURR, which was a big deal nationally in 2008. I'm doing boatloads of research, I need some new hardware, and I'm interviewing the band themselves for this thing. Trying to get publishers interested. But I need a little help. If you' ( Read more... ) -

Migrating Animals
Things were weird for me in 1994. I was living alone in a rooming house, along with a sore clutch of dying old men and junkies literally itching their way into overdoses. I supported myself with two to three retail jobs at the local mall, minimum wage at all of them, and the bus came intermittently - sometimes not at all. The cliche of eating ( Read more... ) -

Weird Porn Question
Hey all,
So here's a weird porn question (which is why I'm asking here and not FB). I watch a series of films called Bound in Public. In them, there's often this one guy in sunglasses and wearing a hat. I have no idea who this guy is but he's my favorite porn star. He's featured on this page:

Lucky 67
Today is Stephen King's 67th birthday. I've loved Stephen King most of my life. I inherited most of my first books from my uncle Doug, who had gone away to school and my grandparents shipped a carton of his old books to my Dad's house. I remember loving the lurid covers, and putting them on my shelf next to the kiddie horror books by Daniel ( Read more... ) -
