Hello, Greetings, and Welcome!
Thanks for stopping by!
First, a bit about me.
I hail from Planet 3 in the Sol System. I was assembled using the most advanced robotics technology that 1887 had to offer. I need oiling twice a day and tend to careen rather than walk. My hit single, “Paint Me, I’m Shiny!” tore up the charts in 1967 and went on to become the theme song for the movie “Spark Lagoo and The Flower Power Tower” in 1968. I have written and directed many of your oddest dreams.
I have worked as an egg tamer, cloud herder, dairy herd clown, tree wrangler, horseshoe-shiner, farm hand, hillock slope inspector, musician, and most notably, held the title of Cosmic Focus For The Stray Thoughts of The Twelve Worlds Creative Collective for a good fifty years before retiring.
Additionally, I invented the lug nut pressure gauge, but capitalizing on this has been problematic. I used to be able to fly but after a most unfortunate collision with a nuclear power plant, I exist every other minute, making most activities no longer feasible.
I now spend my time writing as well as catching rain and throwing it back into the sky. One time, I mist.
Second, what can you expect from my writings?
Not being the type given to flights of fancy, my writings are of a grounded and wholesome bent. We have enough fanciful excursions to last centuries so my most sincere challenge is counter this with as much believable and reassuring fictions as I can muster. I may occasionally stray into works a bit exciting but nothing more wild than the ghost of a dragon possessing a zombie caught up in a world’s revolt against their interstellar overplants, or a grandmother’s afternoon walk to get the mail at the end of a long and most unremarkable driveway.
Finally, I hope you enjoy my forthcoming works and have yourself a wonderful day!
