New Blog

I decided that while the concept of a blog called "pornography shame on you" was funny, it just didn't have the staying power I wanted. So here's my new site. Please visit often.

My Profound Thought

I submitted an essay to the Journal of Compressed Creative Arts. They didn't really like my essay, but they did like my cover letter, or at least a sentence of it. So here's a blurb.

A Link to an Essay: English 3010

A couple of years ago I published an essay called "English 3010" in Touchstones Literary Magazine. They have now digitized it and made it available on line. This is convenient because now everybody that visits this blog (only my wife) will be able to read it.

"English 3010" is an essay about inability to communicate in a class on communication, but ultimately, it's a story about letting go. I saw that "letting go" part on an ad for a movie somebody was trying to raise money for the other day and thought, "Wow, that sounds like it means something profound without actually meaning much of anything." As such, I think it really adds some angsty indie cred to my essay. That's what I want here. Angsty indie cred for the disappointed pornography connoisseurs. So pretty much everything I write from now on is going to be about "letting go."

My piece starts on page 58. So hold on tight, and get ready to "let go." That sounded much more clever before I typed it.

A Word on the Title of this Blog

I realize that the title Pornography...Just Kidding...Shame on You might seem a little crass to some of my readers. To everyone else it probably just seems misleading and shameful. I guess that just leaves me that likes the title, but I want some web traffic. So if someone comes here looking for naked ladies, and accidentally gets some fully clothed humor, then mission accomplished.
