My new short film has been posted. This was a fun little film that we made during a family BBQ one day. Now, it is finally finished. Let me know what you think!

As usual, you can watch all of my films by using the banner menu at the top of the screen.
My new essay in Chicken Soup for the Soul: Runners is released. Please read and let me know what you think!
I realized that until I earn the respect of my peers that my website needs to take another direction. Right now no one cares what words I find interesting, what I thought about the latest book I read, or even how my writing is going.
So I am not going to waste my time and precious internet space writing regular updates. From now on, this website will only have important updates about my projects and some shameless self-promotion when something I create comes available.
The above makes me sound angry, but I am not. I just want to make sure that whoever stumbles upon this website realizes that even though it hasn’t been updated in days/months/years, that I am still hard at work doing what I love, and that I always will be.
I am pleased to announce that you can read my essay “A Lesson in Running”, in the upcoming book Chicken Soup for the Soul: Runners.
It’s the true story of my first marathon. I left out all the stuff about people urinating everywhere and just wrote about the inspiration that I got from an unlikely source.
I’m sure it is full of other interesting running essays as well. And it has Karno on the cover!
It will be published on July 13th, 2010 and can be found in all major bookstores.
Below is a story I wrote for a website that only accepted fiction that had exactly 55 words. It was rejected.
Rainbow
Peater was a lonely leprechaun sitting by himself at the end of a rainbow. Thinking he might find another leprechaun, Peater set out travelling to the other end. It was a long journey through a strange human world. He made many friends, and before completing his trip, had already found what he was looking for.
