Read my new book, The 10 Best Things You Can Do For Your Bird at Amazon or at many other fine distributors like Barnes & Noble, iTunes, Kobo, and more.


By public demand, and after a delay of an embarrassing number of years, I've finally put my notorious essay, Ender and Hitler: Sympathy for the Superman, free on the fabulous internets.

A bibliography of my published books and stories.

Here's a simple card-counting FAQ to get you up to speed on the basics. Here's the true story of the notorious DD' blackjack team, told for the first time on the fabulous internets. No other team went from a starting investor's bankroll of zero to winning millions of dollars.


A Sadean take on Asimov's classic Three Laws of Robotics can be found in Roger Williams' NOW REVIEWED ON SLASHDOT!!! The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect. Adult readers only please -- explicit sex and violence. For updates on the "Dead Tree Project" and other topics, you may visit the official fan site, Passages in the Void..


My Bird Lists -- My Louisiana State Life List, My Yard List and, tah dah, My World Life List.


HEY! What happened to the Peachfront Conure Files? The world's only OFFICIAL Peachfront Conure site now features free peachfront conure coverage, including a magazine length Intro to Conures previously published in American Cage-Bird Magazine, now free on the web. I offer the best free Peachfront Conure information on the internet. If you have great Peachfront Conure info, stories, or photos to share, contact me so I can publicize your pet, your breeding success, your great photograph, etc. on my site. Thanks.







guest entry: the death of venice

all photographs � 2005 by anonymous co-worker 2
If you are interested in using these photos, please email me and I will try to arrange for you to get permission.

Peachfront's Note: I read a letter to the Times-Picayune yesterday that crushed my heart, about a woman from Plaquemines Parish who is now displaced to Alaska (!) and who thinks that "no one" cares about Plaquemines and that the utter destruction of their communities has been forgotten. The media does seem to be leaving untold the story of the devastation that has wiped away such towns as Empire, Buras (where P. lived), and Venice. I also wonder about the wider devastation to the Vietnamese people who have seen their communities washed away from Biloxi to New Orleans East, in addition to the destruction at Empire. A man who had to visit the area for business purposes has kindly agreed to share these photos that speak more powerfully than words about the crushing of a way of life.
