writings
Most of the writing listed below is unavailable in print format. Likewise, I've got no plans to post future stories from the print zine onto the website. So, as far as written material goes, the print zine and the website will be two separate entities. The exceptions are "Bus Ride" and "Dishroom Chronicles," both of which originally appeared in Thoughtworm #3, now out-of-print. "Dishroom Chronicles: The Vignettes" is an ongoing series of anecdotes from my days as a dishwasher. Additional writings that will be added to the site will most likely take the form of travel reports and other similar articles like the ones Malinda and I wrote on UPCON and the Southern Girls Convention. Thank you and enjoy...

Interviews: Over the years, I've been doing interviews, both for the print zine and for Comixville , which is a quarterly guide to DIY comix (see the Zines page for ordering info). I decided to archive them here so they aren't completely lost when the original versions go out of print. They're arranged in chronological order according to original publication date.
