Taking a queue from a couple of my favorite bands, I've decided to self-publish my novel The Meteoric Rise of Simon Burchwood thru Lulu.com. In the past, self-publishing had a stigma attached to it. But so did bands who released albums themselves without label support. Now, times have definitely changed. The traditional models of publishing novels and releasing albums has shifted, thanks to the power of the Internet.
Please support independent publishing and purchase a copy of the novel The Meteoric Rise of Simon Burchwood from Lulu.com. With your purchase, you will also receive a FREE eBook version of the novel for download as well. Pretty sweet!

My comic strips have appeared in the following newspapers:

Rocky Mountain Bullhorn
Seven Days
The University of Texas at Dallas Mercury
The North Austin Bee
