Caleb’s SNIPPETS OF TOMORROW (04/25/10)

@ UnRonic, Stephen Krauska offers some truly amazing words about Charactered Pieces. There’s so much more than I deserve in the full review, so I urge you to click over the UnRonic to read everything. But here’s a snippet: Between his spectacular characters, interesting stories, excellent metaphors all held together with great imagery and vivid [...]

A reader, too?! What a double threat!

Jim Gaffigan is right (and is the source of this post’s title). We admire beauty above most else in this country (this world?), despite all that’s been taught by teachers (probably ugly teachers) and parents. Beauty shouldn’t be all that matters. As ethical beings, we should be able to look beyond physical appeal when evaluating [...]

Caleb’s SNIPPETS OF TOMORROW (03/04/10)

@ Blinding Loud, Sean P. Ferguson gives some great words about Charactered Pieces: The stories don’t change you because they cause you to rethink how you’re living in some great respect. You’re not forced on with issues that want you to decide whether or not to have an abortion, or pick a side when it [...]

I’m still doing stuff, see…

I read somewhere (or maybe I didn’t; reading is for suckers) that the author/promoter divide is a 70/30 ratio. I’d go further, and flip those numbers, giving the promoter hat a 70% weight. If I’ve learned anything with pushing Charactered Pieces these last few months it’s this: writing is a dirty, dirty game. The dream [...]

Caleb’s SNIPPETS OF TOMORROW (01/26/10)

@ What to Wear During an Orange Alert, my story “Sarah Palin, 12 Strikes for Workers” is on the Watch List. You should read, too (Note: I know, taking a shot at Sarah Palin is easy…maybe that’s why I did it.) @ Deckfight Mel Bosworth names Charactered Pieces as one of the five best things [...]

Caleb’s SNIPPETS OF TOMORROW (01/10/10)

@ Goodreads.com, Ben Tanzer, author of Most Likely You’ll Go Your Way and I’ll Go Mine (Orange Alert Press) said this amazing bit about Charactered Pieces: While there is weirdness in these stories, not to mention biblical allegories and tales of suicide and the holocaust, what lingers is an underlying thread about the impact parents, [...]
