"Mad: Adjective. Affected with a high degree of intellectual independence; not conforming to standards of thought, speech, and action derived by the conformants from study of themselves."--Ambrose Bierce

Everyone, I have big news: I finally updated 'Ghost Dance'! http://authorofghostdance.wordpress.com/ Chapter Seven is one of my personal favorite chapters. If you like myth, folklore, teen romance, or any of the various subdivisions of fantasy, you'll like 'Ghost Dance,' or your money back.

And don't forget, guys, that yes, Nate is on Twitter: http://twitter.com/...

Of course I litter the public highway. Every chance I get. After all, it's not the beer cans that are ugly; it's the highway that is ugly."--Edward Abbey

So, I haven't been updating. I've welched on just about every Benrik Task between this blog entry and the last one. I haven't posted a new chapter of Ghost Dance. You can read what I have posted here: http://authorofghostdance.wordpress.com

Between school, the play, writing, ceramics, and all my other projects, I haven't found time for blogging, which I know isn't an excuse. I'm going to start doing better, to quit half-assing, very shortly. In the meantime, I feel like I ought to at least post something, so here's a short essay I wrote for my Advanced Placement Civics class. I think it's pretty good.
