Chatter and buzz

Video interview with Pete Crooks of Diablo Magazine about Bigfoot, libraries, Queen, and the apocalypse.

An interview about writing the novel and freaking out in the woods.

An interview about not knowing I was a writer ... and the college class I hated most.

My piece on Necessary Fiction about doing Bigfoot research as a kid in the 70s.

"A delightful black satire." -- ForeWord Reviews

"Captivating ... the characters are believable even in their outlandish moments." -- Lake Tahoe News

"So lovely, so well-done, and so hard to explain. I loved Bigfoot and the Baby."--Insatiable Booksluts

"It's refreshing in these post-irony times to see characters who believe--and not just in the traditional religious sense." -- Necessary Fiction

"A love song and a Molotov cocktail to the American myth of self-reinvention." -- Anthony Varallo, author of Think of Me and I'll Know

"Skewers a culture gone mad with consumerism, religious millennialism, and the obsession with celebrity." -- Lawrence Coates, author of The Master of Monterey

"At once highly imaginative, playful and deadly serious. I loved it." -- Ellen Kirschman, author of Burying Ben

"An engaging fable of the contemporary American West." -- Stuart Rojstaczer, author of The Mathematician's Shiva

"A delicious and moving story, filled with mischief, satire, and ultimately great joy." -- Harriet Chessman, author of The Beauty of Ordinary Things
