  • Who are we with and with whom do we end up

    047 - What if, as a writer, I'm actually more of a listener, observer, and painter, rather than someone who has a lot to say? A dreamweaver, how about that? I have no message to deliver in a world saturated with revelations. Such is the mood as I prepare for the publication of 'Stars With Evil Eyes', my second book in as many months. It will be available at the Trial Market on September 18. Send words to [email protected] or visit my website. Breathe.

    046 - It's pedal to the metal as I've been scribbling towards my forthcoming book 'Forty-One Frames' and today I read an excerpt from this book, a piece that I wrote literally hours before speaking on this program. I'm also happy to announce that my latest book 'Anxious Headlights and Parallelograms' is now available at the ACO Bookshop. You can find me on my website or on IG.

  • Blank scratches from a drying brush

    045 - What should I call the things I'm creating? Do I have to give them a label? Could there be a more accurate or 'definitive' definition of the things we create? Such is the convoluted mind in these dog days of summer. Check out my latest book 'Anxious Headlights and Parallelograms' by browsing my website or just write me at [email protected]

    044 - Why is it okay to sell your own burgers but not your own fiction? What is this twitch of insecurity and is it unique to writers? Are there other representations of insecurity felt by artists of other disciplines? Today I read an excerpt taken from Chapter 2 of my upcoming book 'Stars With Evil Eyes'. Limited copies of 'Anxious Headlights and Parallelograms' are now available for purchase. Drop me a note - [email protected] | Thanks for tuning in, Atom C.

  • As we anticipate this elusive, ephemeral jackpot

    041 - How do we catch up with lost time? Should we be stunned if there comes a point in our lives when we realize it's just not impossible to read all the books that we've been meaning to read? On top of this, I read an excerpt from my forthcoming book, Stars With Evil Eyes. I'll be reading at the launch of Canto Cutie Vol 3 this weekend: Saturday July 10th 9 PM EST (USA) / Sunday July 11th 9 AM HKT (Hong Kong). Learn more about @cantocutie.
