About

I am here to help the world realize that geek media/pop culture and literature are not mutually exclusive.
I’m a geek. I’m also a college English professor. By night, I’m your typical science fiction loving, MMO playing gamer geek, but by day I’m a (supposedly) respectable academic teaching English. And that makes me awesome.
I write about things I love: mostly books, gaming, television, and teaching. Despite what some people might think, none of those are mutually exclusive. I use Stephen King and Joss Whedon in my classroom, and I talk World of Warcraft and Stargate with my students. I’m kind of a renaissance man of geekdom. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.
My creative writing tends to range from YA SF to adult (not adult as in pornographic, though) horror, with a range in between. One could say that I am a genre writer, but I refuse to think there is anything negative about that label. Like my blog, I write what I love. I am currently working on completing my first manuscript, a Young Adult science fiction/fantasy novel.
If you’re interested in pop culture–movies, games, books, or TV–or the academic side of geek media, then you’re in the right place.
