About

"I love how these stories show an understanding of the nuanced relationship between human beings and technology, which is often belied by the absurdity of the humor. Technology is presented not as a boogey-man, but rather as the tools human beings create to fill real needs. The problem, of course, arises from humans' preternatural abilities to epically eff up even the best intentions."–Moxie MezcalSTORIESThe Opinion Poll SeriesWatch Them Argue!The Toothbrush from Hyper-RealityBloodbath for BreakfastBlack BoxPart-Time Evening Elementary SchoolA Model Son, Scale 1:1John, Age Seven and a HalfThe Third Attempt to Take the TeddyAll-in-One EveryToyAn Impulse PurchaseA Board for NothingHappiness in a Four-packFailure ConfirmedPit of a Royal GrapefruitNose Number 32SnoboholicThe Language of Worldwide CommunicationProfile Type 'Single Father of Two School-age Children, Problems at Work and an Unresolved Credit Payment Issue With a Studio Apartment With a Home Entertainment System as Collateral'A Man Called DeskHashtagstories Vol. 2/2 Self-publisher and geek fiction writer 3.0 beta.
