About

Hello. I'm a writer, editor and music journalist living in New York. I'm currently a fiction student in the MFA Program at Syracuse University. I used to live in Austin, work for The World Almanac and wear more Geto Boys T-shirts. I'm working on some short stories and a novel. Contact me via e-mail here.

Works

I'm working on a novel. Houston, in the year 2024, is filled with rappers-as-sorcerers and a 33-year-old Mexican-American DJ named Juan who lives with his parents. What is more sci-fi than rich Mexicans? Living in River Oaks while a mysterious red Buick Regal roams the neighborhood and a pint-sized Rhodes Scholar rapper who is obsessed with Schopenhauer. A part-satire, part-thriller, part-naco science-fiction novel where David Foster Wallace meets UGK? Look for it on bookshelves in 2093.

Fantasma Press is an indie publishing house based in Brooklyn, NY. Genre stories, weird stories, avant-garde/experimental fiction, Spanish-language fiction and dope drawings and essays are forthcoming in the future. I also use it to publish tiny chapbooks of shit I know would never sell anywhere else. Give me your $$$.
