From the monthly archives: August 2009
I’m starting to wonder if I should just take August off from podcasting. It seems to be the month I have the most trouble getting content out. But no more! This week you will be DELUGED with content! Starting with the (one week late) anniversary episode of I Should Be Writing, featuring an [...]
Lesser known superheroes:
The Pugilist has gigantic fists. His hands are normal-sized, but when the anger of righteous indignation brings his fingers in, when the mighty fists of the Pugilist are clenched, they are enormous. And it woe to any who would stand in their way.
At least, that’s how it was, [...]
I was a child of the television. Cartoons, Brady Bunch reruns, Family Feud (I so wanted to be on that show but the biggest thing holding me back – besides, you know, the rest of my family being on board – was creepy-ass Richard Dawson insisting on kissing all the females.), Tic Tak Dough, Smurfs, [...]
Time travel works like this:
Everyone has a chronal signature. It’s built into your very cells, and it’s what keeps time travelers from being seen. Go forward, go back, it doesn’t matter. You can’t interact with another time because you’re not from that time. On the one hand, it makes returning extremely [...]
First, I’ve been writing.

Time travel works like this:
Arianna has been traveling through time her entire life. Through every single life she’s had.
Arianna was born on January 1st, year 1, and her first-born daughter has always been her: a perfect duplicate, retaining all of her mother’s memories. And so, the collective memories of 100 [...]
Time travel works like this:
There is no time travel. Every moment occurs now. Linear existence, as we perceive it, is a fallacy. The clumsiness of our physical bodies keeps us from truly experiencing time. But, if we were able to release ourselves from our physical bodies, then we would truly experience [...]
Time travel works like this:
You can’t go forward, only back.
The future is at best unknowable, at worst, non-existent. The best temporal mechanics minds in the world cannot figure out why we move forward from moment to moment on our own, but can’t jump ahead in the sequence a bit. The [...]
Time travel works like this:
It’s all about meditation, about connecting to the every moment in your life. Properly meditating, you can time-travel, experiencing the moments that have happened and will happen in your life as if they were the present. It’s not something you can pick up after a few yoga [...]
I just read something that angered me. What I read is not important, because what pissed me off was the phrase within an email that seems ubiquitous-indeed, I’ve said it myself. But I’m tired of it. I’m going to stop using it, and I implore you, I BEG of you to erase this phrase from [...]
