began writing his sophomore year of undergrad study when, tired of the formal art education then being taught, he abandoned the pursuit in the middle of a compositional drawing class. Major-less and fearful of losing his financial aid, he signed up to seek a degree in English Literature for no other reason than his lengthy history with the language. Coincidentally, this decision not only introduced him to writing but to reading as well. Prior this transition he had read three books. One of which he understood.

Today is a two-fer. After my earlier post at Gloom Cupboard, here comes another, this one at Marie Schutt's blog. I write about a topic I've long pondered, the idea of a pinnacle medium for every creative idea. Mainly: is there a pinnacle medium? Click here to read the guest post.

Today's post is something special. About a month ago I read with Brandon Tietz and Michael Sonbert as part of Brandon's Super Sexy 100% Classy Author Reading. While the event was great fun, I approached the night more as a tourist than a participant. And as a tourist, I had to nerd-up the event as much as I could. That's why I video recorded my reading so I could study it like I'm some kinda' football player. Today's post is a rundown of my findings. Click here to read the guest post.

This stop is a big one for me. Oft visitors will know that I am a big Chuck Palahniuk fan (I even defend Tell-All and Snuff). And in being so, it goes without saying that I frequent the official Chuck Palahniuk fan site, The Cult, quite often (I'm thirstygerbil over there). So, when Stranger Will was chosen as the May 2011 official book club pick, I danced a bit. If you've read Stranger Will, please head over to the forums and offer a few comments. Respond to other comments as well. Engage. Be a member of the literary community. Say what you like. Say what you hate. I can take it. And to further encourage your participation, know that I WILL NOT be posting in the book club forum until toward the end of the month, so feel free to be absolutely honest with your discussion. The only caveat being…
