Writing

I’ve written a ton of stuff all over the place. Here are some handy links.

I’m also a published author. Check the Bookstore page for my books.

All of my works are under the CC-by-NC license. You’re free to pass them around and do NON-commercial adaptations without asking, as long as I get credited, and as long as you link back to my site and indicate if any changes were made to the content. If you want to do a youtube reading, show common courtesy and ask me first. I’ll probably be okay with it.

My op-ed stuff tends to be blunt, and even abrasive. Don’t post rebuttals if you’re not gonna be rational about it.
