Let's Get This Party Started!

It's been a minor millennia since I've stopped in here, so I thought I'd take a moment to make a lot of excuses for my absence. Since August 2008 I have been working with Greg Hall on our horror website, Choate Road. Choate's growing popularity has led to a weekly blog talk radio show, The Funky Werepig, which airs every Friday night at 11pm Eastern. So between the website and the radio show, I'm trying to focus more on my writing. There are several projects on my horizon. Curren… Continue

A Whole Lotta Something.

Hey, you! My review of 'Fried! Fast Food, Slow Deaths' appears in this month's issue of The World of Myth. Great book, by the way. Definitely not for the faint of stomach. (-: Five forks up. That is, if I used a rating scale of forks... one being the lowest and five being the highest... it would score five forks. Possibly even five and a half, although I've never split a fork in half. Then again, there's always the spork. Five forks and a spork up. Buy a copy. In other news, my flash fiction… Continue

Tread upon the dead very carefully...

Through yesterday's excursion in an old cemetery, I learn the hard way that some things are better left undisturbed. Restless spirits? Eternal boredom? Let's just say it's a lesson learned. You can check out my graveside tale here: http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=329459390&blogID=384409962 Yeah. I'm such a dork. Continue

In other news...

Greg Hall has already mentioned it, but I will too. I'm repetitive like that. The new Connect The Dots anthology will be available for sale soon on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. I contributed two stories, along side my associates Greg Hall, Kelly James, and Alexzan Burton. It was a wonderful experience to work with them.

Also, my humor short, "The Mysteriously Maddeningly Magically Missing Mocha, uh, Mystery" (I think I got that right. Pretty sad when you can't remember your own titContinue

This ain't 'The Exorcist'

A very brief excerpt from 'Dial-An-Exorcism':

Weeks passed in a blur. It had been a long time since the guys were over, and we looking for something to do that wouldn’t cause public humiliation and extensive repair fees. So I invited them one Sunday afternoon to catch the football game. It was the Browns versus the Colts, and I was rooting for the latter. Of course, Todd and Fred were both die-hard Browns fans, so with Chuck on my sidContinue

Cry me a river

I went through a period of time when I wrote mainly poetry, but honestly, quite a bit of it fell outside the lines of poems or prose. I have no idea what it was. Perhaps not much more than colorful journaling. It was good practice, regardless.

I won't deny at that time I was going through a lot of inner conflict, so much of what I wrote was overly emotional. The following is an example:

"Become"

In the sedative fuzz of nightfall, they slowly awaken from their tombs buried deep in the bowels of their lush ranches and two story mausoleums. Noiselessly they encase their forms with velvet and black lace. The silent summons bring them all into the deepening dusk, where they harness all the powers of nature and science and human engineering to drive their shiny black sedans into the heart of the city that embraces them. Music can be heard subliminally, pulsing in their ears andContinue

Storytellers Unplugged

The Anatomy and Creation of a Story Pt. 2

This is an ongoing discussion of the process I use to write short stories…not that there is a set process, as it’s different each time.  I started this in “Part One” back on my personal blog, and wanted to continue here to mix up the audience as much as possible.

In part one, I discussed the [...]

“This soap box is not big enough for the both of us.”

Here’s the question that got top billing for [...]

Providence, 1986

Providence, 1986 Wayne Allen Sallee 28 November 2009

I have a road trip, of sorts, ahead of me in a few hours. A zig-zag across the transit system of Chicago. I’m heading up north, but first I have to take the 55th Street bus to an artist friend’s place and drop off a few autographed books. There is [...]

The Ritual of Fine-Tuning My Writing

Most writers I know have rituals. These run the gamut from adjusting their desks a certain way to writing by candlelight to setting a glass of perfectly innocent booze on fire before each writing project as a sacrifice to the Writing Ancestors. They may sound silly, or wasteful (perfectly good booze, after all) or unintuitive, [...]

Thanksgiving

Friends and relatives around he world sing the same song: “We don’t have Thanksgiving here.” Here is New Zealand, South Africa, England, Israel…and on and on. This year, because we are down to three of us—my guardian angel/chef and one friend who lives alone—I stopped to think about what that means.

“We don’t have [...]
