I'm a young disenfranchised punk kid, with a southern sense of respect, tough northern skin, and a mind that can only be compared to a meticulously sharpened shard of glass wrapped in a rag and gaffer tape. I drink and smoke and rarely sleep, and stagger the line between everything.
My words are fueled by anger, pain, fear, lonliness, drugs, tragedy, whiskey, hope, cigarettes, a keen perception, mistakes, failures, the joy of failure, the glory of retribution, and more cigarettes. I write because I need to. When I stop writing, everything gets worse.
Andrew vachss, charlie huston, james ellroy, charles bukowski, hubert selby jr., phillip k. Dick, samuel r. Delaney, sir arthur connan doyle, mickey spillane, dashiell hammet, raymond chandler, elmore leonard, kevin young, billy collins, miller williams, and that's all that's floating along the top of my skull.
