What do you say to your critics?
I cherish my one-star reviews. They show me I’ve created something truly unique. Most people are repulsed by the unfamiliar. When they read my stories, they read about topics they’ve been taught to shun. I’ve been called disgusting, perverted, filthy, and satanic. Yep! That’s me. If you’re ready to descend into a world of slop and sleaze, my books are waiting. If the roller-coaster ride was too much for your weak heart, please warn others. Keep reviewing!

(5.00 from 1 review)
Psychosis is not for the faint of heart. A tale told by a young madman, 5150 is a firsthand account of a descent into madness, institutionalization, escape, recapture, and eventual release. Young Ethan haunts the gay underbelly of the San Francisco Tenderloin in the 1980's. Psychosis and cigarette smoke intertwine in a coffee-ringed world of hairspray, dyed black hair, hobos, and hospital gowns.
