What the Hell Happened to Chris By-The-Throat?

Yeah, so I realize I haven't blogged in awhile.

Life has resumed the usual state of zen chaos here in Babylon. I'm not going to lie; there was a brief period of homelessness. Our lease ran out before our new apartment opened up and we stayed at the campground in a sort of extended bugout.

Let me tell you the worst thing about the SHTF that you never considered; you will probably still have to go to work. And working graveyards while trying to sleep during the hottest part of the day, year and month? Yeah, fuck that shit. Fuck it to death.

In the exciting news category, I am working on the next to last chapter of the book. You can spy a preview below if you want. This is the rough manuscript and it needs a lot of TLC, but it is seriously the closest to being finished with a novel that I have been so I'm excited anyway. There is a market for post apocalyptic Conan / Walter Mitty fiction so the time has never been riper for a hack like me to make it in this world. Or not, but at least I'll have finished something for fuck's sake.

Anyway, on the off chance that I do get published I don't want the first break in another painful blogging hiatus to be "Hey, buy my book you motherfuckers."

I'm just sayin' homie, I'm just sayin.

You'll see more of me in the coming months; I have rediscovered my method for writing blog entries at work while getting around the filter. I don't know if you should be more grateful or scared.
