New Website!

This is the brand-new website! There are still some things to sort through, and still dozens of reports and pieces from the archive to be uploaded, but a good chunk of my work — over 500 pieces or appearances — is now available for reading, viewing, or listening. If you’d like to get regular updates on my writing as well as new material that gets uploaded here, please contact me here.If you’re new to me and my work, you can find out more at my About page. And this, “Forty Pieces: A Sampling of My Work,” takes you to some of my representative writing and some of the interviews I’ve done.

Starting April 7, you can expect a new update post nearly every Tuesday week telling you what’s new on this site and in my life and work. I’ll be writing a chronicle of the pandemic over the next many weeks or months, as long as it lasts. Let’s all hope it’s not years.

This site has been generously and kindly and diligently set up for me by Pink Frankenstein; I cannot thank him enough for what amounts to a whole new abode on the web. He’s the architect, carefully making sure there are no leaks in the roof, that the plumbing is all in shape, and that the lights will stay on! I’m simply the one who moves in with ease, placing my cushions and artwork here and there. If you would like to engage him as a consultant for your own website, please contact him directly.

If you have any questions, or if you see some problems here, please let me know.

Update: On Publishing, Plagiarism, Philz Coffee, and Persistence

If there is one thing I’m really happy about, it’s my writing.  I’m exploring new topics and even genres and very happy stretching my muscles with all the new work I’ve got planned.

Death Is Your Gift: A Midsummer Update

I’ve gone through more life-changing experiences in the course of a few months than most experience in a few years, and I think that’s so true.  At the same time, my life is also not that different from the millions of others who operate in an economy that now defines us as the “precariat.”

Changes

I’m willing to take unpopular stances not because I want to be a contrarian but because I’m interested in pursuing the truth of an analysis with integrity (and I have no patience for false modesty).
