Hey Team! I’ve been working on a new book proposal and I thought I’d share the opening anecdote with you. If you’d like to get updates for how things are progressing and some more fun excerpts as I write them, then you can click right here. Okey dokey, here we go! *** It’s Day 229…
**Hey Team! This is a VERY old story. It started in 2002 and was original posted on an old Myspace blog on May 13th, 2006. But it’s one of the most incredible things that has ever happened to me and I wanted to share it without having to link to (shudder) Myspace. So here it…
Hey Team, **Good news! I’ve single-handedly discovered the one sure-fire way to ensure you stop blogging completely. Just write a post about how you intend to write more. Even better news! Here’s a post I told my new friends over at Lux Delux I would write for them…a month ago. Enjoy.** First, some background: You…

I was on the phone with everyone’s favorite triathlete, @katymoe, making sure the hatches were all battened down (whatever that means…) at the homestead when I hear over the LAX…
Hey Team, Enjoy the New Year’s Eve shenanigans! Here’s my gift to you (inspired by a desire to vindicate myself in the face of that crazy SOB William Shatner). 🙂 “Amtrekker travels to Beulah, MI to create a crop circle! Failures and ethnically insensitive impressions ensue.” I’m done. Brett.
Hey Team, Cruise ships are not a form of transportation. They’re more like huge freaking hotels that you’re locked inside of for 16 hours at a time with a few thousand of your closest friends (provided you don’t have many actual close friends), and when they finally open the gates, you’ve been mysteriously teleported to…
