Personal Writings

Here you will find a collection of some of my own personal writings, such as personal essays, snippets of fiction, and poetry. I will compile a list here as I add things to the site.

For fun, here is a common view of my workspace while I’m writing (kitty butt!)

Short Fiction:

Poetry:

“Nisei”

“I’m Still Learning to Forgive You”

Essays and Creative Nonfiction:

“Dissolution, or I’m Still Trying”

“Shut Up and Take My Money: Exposing the Realities of Hyper-Consumerism and Consumption Through Parody in the World of Futurama“ [This academic article was slated for publication as a chapter in a book on critiques of capitalism in pop culture media, however the book deal fell through and all acquired chapters were released to their respective authors. This is clearly never going anywhere now, but I worked very hard on it and I think it’s pretty damn good, so I might as well share it somewhere.]

“Paul’s Empire: Imperialism and Assemblage Theory in Frank Herbert’s Dune” – an academic article published in the MOSF Journal of Science Fiction, Vol 1, no 1 (2016)
