Trying to post a few entries to the Texas Press Association awards today, and quickly discovered that any submission entered that exceeds 10 MB forces you have to provide a web link as part of the submission, even if you manage to get the file size down. Unfortunately, that particular newspaper has not yet got a website set up that will show anything but a digital replica of the current print…

It’s almost that time again, boys! No, I’m not talking about Superbowl LVII, set Sunday, Feb. 12, in Glendale, Arizona; the 65th annual Daytona 500, coming Sunday, Feb. 19, live from Daytona Speedway; the gravity-defying Winter X Games, scheduled Jan. 27-29 in Aspen, Colorado; nor even the John Beargrease Marathon, which as everyone knows is the grueling 400-mile race for the finish line held the…

…ALL your freaking stories start disappearing off the internet. Hell, there was a time we inkstained newspaper folk honestly thought those words of ours might live forever in the great wide web. Of course, back then, 10 years was right next to forever. I fully expected to be dead by 30, if you wanna know the truth. I just figured I’d wind up doing some stupid shit, then get to watch as my face…

It’s so hot in Texas even the squirrels are giving up… Surfing the state and national headlines last weekend I happened upon a word I’d never seen before, applied to squirrels, of all things, all over Texas.

Some monsters will keep you up nights. But in the heart of Texas, our monsters are all too often, all too real…
That’s how Madville’s editorial director Kimberly Davis teased the stories that have become my book, after picking a picture for the cover that you’d swear slipped right out of an old family album someplace, based on little more than a few words I lumped together in an attempt to…

What it might’ve sounded like had I made it to Austin last weekend…
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Despite that nifty little pep talk I wrote myself a week ago, I never made it to Austin. Six hours of windshield time getting there from where I am, combined with however long the event itself would’ve taken, just seemed to gobble a lot of what little home time I have lately.
